numbering eleven on the penultimate, and becoming evanescent on the

spacing, crossing ribs and interstices alike, and extending over the whole 
whorl from the suture downwards, numbering about six on the penultimate 
and twenty-two on the last whorl. Aperture wide, unarmed ; varix slight; 
sinus shallow; canal a mere notch. Length 5°5 mm., breadth 2 mm.

dicular, angled at the shoulder, running from suture to base, but not 
continuing from one whorl to another; on the penultimate seven ; spirals 
very slender and widely-spaced threads, between which are a few still 
finer threads; of the major series there are twelve on the last and four on 
the penultimate whorl. Aperture open, unarmed saye for a tubercle on 
either side of the sinus; varix well developed; sinus wide and shallow; 
canal merely a notch. Length 5 mm., breadth 2 mm.

(Plate |., fig. 119.) 
Shell small, solid, narrowly ovate. Colour uniform white. Whorls 
six, including a smooth two-whorled protoconch. Sculpture :—Prominent 
ribs, parted by their own breadth, are set at nine or ten to a whorl; both 
ribs and interstices are traversed by a series of uniform sharp spiral 
threads—six on the penultimate and thirteen on the last whorl. Aperture 
narrow, protected by a broad and high varix; canal short and open; sinus 
a semicircular notch; there are no denticules on the lips, but a deeply- 
seated fold is just visible on the columella. Length 3°5 mm., breadth

numerous ribs and coarser spirals.
