The periphery is far less acutely angled than in C. virgo, and the 

 dark border of the lip is broader. Fig. 52 of pi. 25 represents the 

 typical form. Hidalgo arranges the varietal forms as follows : 



Var. 1. (PL 24, fig. 31). Periphery of the last whorl rounded. 

 This is the H. nympha of Pfeiffer and Reeve. 



Var. 2. (PL 26, figs. 10, 11, 12). Apical whorls purplish-black ; 

 suture usually narrowly margined with brown.
