Obs. This fine shell appears to us to be very 

 distinct from Lamarck's P. reticulata, and to accord 

 extremely well with Martini's figure above cited. It 

 is one of those remarkable shells commonly known 

 in this country under the name of Figs, but we be- 

 lieve it to be an extremely rare species, as we have 

 never met with another specimen. Its locality is 

 unknown to us.
