alba, postice infra apicem septo arcuato latiuseulo instructa ; 

 apex terminalis, parvus, acute unciformis, valde recurvus, extra 

 marginem productus ; apertura ovata. 

 Longit, 13 mm., diam. lOg, alt. 4.

Remarkable for the depressed cap-like form, the slimness 

 of the shell, and the internal septum, as in the genus 

 Septaria. The protoconch has merely the appearance of a 

 curved hook.

Differing from the typical form in having rather coarser 

 granulation and the second row of granules below the suture 

 are conspicuously larger. In one example the two adjacent 

 series of granules at the periphery, which Avind up the spire, 

 are conspicuously spotted with pink, and large blotches of a 

 dark olive-green upon the middle of the whorls at intervals 

 occur under one another, thus forming three interrupted 

 stripes which descend from the apex to the angle ol' the body- 

 whorl. The granules upon the base are small, closely packed, 

 and mostly white with pink dots between them. Another 

 variety is almost entirely yellow, but some obscure white 

 spots occur upon the periphery and the lower surface.
