The length is generally from one inch and an half to two inches ; 

 the shell is brittle and without gloss, of a light, brownish colour, 

 wrought transversely, with fine striae, and many narrow whitish 

 veins. Its Latin and English names are derived from its supposed 

 resemblance to a piece of veined wood. 



This Shell is very open ; its animal a slug.
