This figure was made from a young shell. Much larger speci- 

 mens are now before me. It is possible this may be the uniigured 

 M. septeninarius Con., but it differs from the description..

Prof. "W". H. Dall* has changed M. shilohensis Heilp. var. 

 burnsi Whitf . into a distinct species and this necessitates a change 

 of name in ours.

This species is a peculiar form rather difficult to place generic- 

 ally and I am not yet satisfied with the position assigned by Mr. 

 Harris. Occurs at Newton, Miss., Lisbon, Ala., and Texas. 



GONIOBASIS. 



Goniobasis texana Heilprin. PI. 2, fig. 3. 



This form was described by Prof. Heilprin as a Cerithiian 

 but more perfect specimens than he had prove it to be a gigantic 

 Goniobasis. Two specimens are in my collection from Texas ; the 

 largest if perfect would be over four inches in length. There is 

 but little difference between this form and G. trigemmata Conrad 

 sp., Alabama, and I have no doubt they will be eventually united. 



The figure was drawn from a very young .shell. 



Locality. — Wheelock and Lee Co., Tex. 



RISSOINA.

Shell solid ; whorls nine, the first four smooth, embryonic, then 



follow four rounded adult whorls showing fine spiral lines which 



are slightly pitted at the intersections of lines of growth with
