CyPR#A GRANULATA. 
T. ovata aut obeso-ovata, subgibbosa, subtenui, extremitatibus vir 
productis ; dorso granuloso aut noduloso, nodulis lateralibus 
liris coadunatis, suleo dorsali vix impresso ; lateribus submargi- 
natis ; basi conveza, lirata, liris remotis, per basem partim ex- 
tensis, interdum liris intermediis; apertura angusta, antice 
latiore, lactea aut pallide rufescenti-fusca, nodulis albidis, 
rufescenti-fusco annulatis, liris rufescenti-fuscis ; basi alba, 
liris basalibus rufo-fuscente marginatis, extremitatibus rufes- 
centi-fuscis tinctis. 
Shell rather light, ovate, or obesely ovate, somewhat gibbous; ex- 
tremities slightly produced ; back granulose or nodulous; nodules 
irregular in size, those near the margins connected by ridges ; the 
ridges terminating at the margins, and seldom reaching the dorsal 
region, impressed by a slight dorsal groove, which is sometimes ob- 
solete ; sides slightly margined ; base convex, ridged ; ridges remote, 
especially those on the columella not extending to the margin, and 
those on the columella not reaching the inner edge, with the excep- 
tion of a few of the anterior ones ; occasionally a few short interme- 
diate ridges ; aperture narrow, slightly the wider anteriorly ; cream- 
colour or light reddish-brown ; nodules whitish, sometimes encircled 
by reddish-brown rings ; ridges of the same colour ; base white ; basal 
ridges edged with reddish brown, and extremities stained with the 
same colour. 
Length 32, breadth 20 mill. 
From an examination of living specimens of the above species, 
from several parts of the Pacific, we are satisfied it is quite distinct 
from the C. nucleus or C. madagascarensis, with which it has been 
heretofore confounded. It differs from both of the above species in 
being lighter, and in the basal ridges being less in number and not 
extending to the margin, or becoming nearly obsolete as they approach 
* The description of Pupina mouhoti will be given in a subsequent paper.
