Habitat ad Bredasdorp. Detexit J. Fry. 
This sinistrorse species is very peculiar, with reference to its 
deep umbilicus running up to the summit, as in the unique 
Chinese P. regalis, B., its carinate base, and handsome sculpture. 
In some respects it exhibits a relation to the imperforate P. La- 
yardi, especially with reference to the imperfect tube at the top 
of the aperture, formed by the connivent palatal and parietal 
plaits. It was discovered at Bredasdorp, at the southern shore 
of Swellendam, by Mr. John Fry. Mr. Layard reports that the 
animal is jet-black, very short and thin, the shell being carried 
on one side, or tilted up if in’a line with the animal.
