256 MR. G. B. SOWERBY ON NEW SHELLS. [Apr. 28, 
CoNUS MITREZFORMIS, var. PUP£FORMIS. (Pl. XXII. fig. 2.) 
C. testa angusta, cylindrica, albida, obscurissime striata. 
Hab. Mauritius. 
The more eylindrical form and more produced spire of specimens 
recently brought from the Mauritius, as compared with the original 
and subseqnently published figures, led at first to the belief that 
they represented a distinct species. Most of the old specimens in 
cabinets agree with Bruguiére’s figure, being thick at the upper part 
and granulated. The new variety is finely striated, with the colour- 
ing more continuous. 
Conus rurrirus. (PI. XXII. fig. 14.) 
C. testa elongata, tenui, utrinque eleganter pyramidata, rosea, flam- 
mulis rubescentibus infra medium interruptis ornata, ad basim 
acuminata, striata; spira producta, gradata, acuminata; anfra- 
ctibus obscurissime undatis, acutissime angulatis, concavis, apice 
mamillato ; apertura rosea, labio postice profunde sinuato. 
Hab. Agulhas Bank, 8. Africa. 
At first sight, this Cone is slightly suggestive of C. papillaris, but 
it has straight sides, a much more elevated and turreted spire, 
of which the sharply angulated whorls are not coronated, only very 
obscurely undated. 
Conus FLoRIDENSI!s. (Pl. XXII. fig. 11.) 
C. testa solida, subfusiformi, alba, levi, ad angulum lata, infra angu- 
lum fascia latissima subaurea longitudinaliter flammulata et macu- 
lis fuscis lineatim dispositis cincta ; spira pyramidali, gradata, 
producta, flammis castaneis brevibus ornata; apertura angusta, 
labio postice profunde sinuato. 
Hab. Florida (Mr. Waters). 
A beautifully coloured shell, with moniliform markings, some- 
what resembling C. delessertianus in general appearance. 
Conus TeGuLatus. (Plate XXII. fig. 12.) 
C. testa subangusta, distanter et equaliter sulcata, inter sulcos plani- 
lirata, super sulcos maculis linearibus in fasciis duabus majoribus 
longitudinaliter flammulata, sulcis concentrice sculptis ; spira con- 
cavo-acuminata, angulo acuto; anfractibus spiraliter striatis et 
concentrice cancellatis. 
Hab. China Seas. 
The chestnut linear spots, arranged in longitudinal flame-like 
bands, and thickened in two spiral bands, give a tessellated appear- 
ance to this pretty little suleated shell. 
Conus TENuIsuLcatus. (Pl. XXII. fig. 10.) 
C. testa parva, acuminata, medio et infra tenuiter et distanter sulcata, 
albida, griseo fasciata, maculis castaneis seu fulvis medio et infra 
bifasciata; spira acuminata ; anfractibus angulatis, maculatis.
