columella very much reflected and covered by the spire. It 

 inhabits the Pacific ocean. The species included are : — 



C. FiMBBiATA A. Adams, C. robillardi, Lienard. 



C. CANCELLATA PcaSC, C. 8CULPTILI8 Pcase. 



The last two are un figured and may possibly be synony-

Genus Melapiam H. & A. Adams. 



Dr. Paul Fischer refers this genus to the family Turbin- 

 ellidae. This disposition is probably correct, as the columella 

 has a very distinct plait.
