The entirely white variety of this delicate shell (which has the ap- 
pearance of being framed of the purest wax overlaid with a glassy 
transparent enamel) is rather smaller than var. a. The animal in 
both varieties is of a light bluish green, so that when it is with- 
drawn into the transparent shell it produces a strong resemblance 
to Carocolla Reginea ; and indeed, when Mr. Cuming first saw them, 
he for a moment thought that he had found large specimens of that 
lovely shell; but when the animal was taken out, the delusion va- 
nished.

The dim and sordid white of nes species is enriched when the 
greyish white animal is withdrawn into the shell.

The animal of this elegantly worked Carocolla is yellowish, some- 
what like the ground-colour of the shell, which is exquisitely scul- 
ptured after the manner of engine-turned trinkets. Above, the ele- 
vated concentric lines are sharp, and the shell on that side has some- 
what the appearance of a flattened Scalaria: beneath, the elevated 
lines are rounded, and radiate very regularly from the open umbili- 
cus. The chestnut line that borders the sharp dentated edge of the 
angle of the body-whorl is, beneath, interrupted with white bead- 
like elevations. All the four chestnut lines of the body-whorl can 
be seen through the shell when it is placed with the lower side up- 
permost,
