Conch. Icon., Conus, pl. 45. f. 247. 
Hab. ? 
This shell may probably have been confounded with the Conus 
lividus ; it is, however, quite distinct from that species both in the 
detail of the painting and in the structure of the spire. The spire 
is canaliculated, and very peculiarly beaded with fine oblique nodules, 
the canaliculated surface being of an olive-brown colour, whilst the 
nodules are white. 
Conus suturatus. Con. testd subabbreviato-turbinatd, solidiusculd, 
levigatd, basim versus sulcatd, sulcis latiusculis, distantibus; alba, 
basi pallidé rosaced; spird plano-convexd, profunde suturatd, spi- 
raliter liratd et striata, apice minuto, acuto.

Hab. ? 
There is a very peculiar character on the spire of this shell; the 
sutures have an unusually decided appearance, in consequence of a 
small ridge which each whorl throws up at its junction with the 
preceding. 
Conus creruscutum. Con. testd turbinatd, tenuiculd, supern? levi, 
infra exiliter granulatd, granulis seriatim digestis, basim versus 
gradatim majoribus ; luteold, basi violaced ; spird conveaxd, apice 
mucronato, elato, anfractuum marginibus subtilissime obsolete no- 
dulosis.

Hab. ——? 
This shell is allied in some measure to the Conus lividus ; it is, 
however, of much lighter growth, there is no indication of any colour 
in the aperture, and the spire is obsoletely very finely beaded. 
Conus tristis. Con. testd turbinatd, subfusiformi, levigatd, basim 
versus sulcatd ; albd; spird convexo-elatd, spiraliter striatd, an- 
fractuum marginibus subtilissime nodulosis, anfractés ultimi no- 
dulis obsoletis, apice mucronato. . 
Conch. Icon. Conus, pl. 45. f. 252. 
Hab. ? 
There is no indication of any colour in this shell; it is of rather 
light structure. 
Conus prumBEvs. Con. testd turbinatd, subpyriformi, irregulariter 
rugulosd et granosd, ceruleo-albd, olivaceo- aut violaceo-plumbeo 
fasciatd et strigata; spird convexd, nodulis subtilibus coronatd, 
albd, apice obtuso, rosaceo ; basi et aperture fauce vivide violaced.

The wrinkles and irregular granules which cover the greater por- 
tion of this specimen may not belong to the species, which is intro- 
duced upon independent grounds ; namely, on account of the cross- 
blotched style of painting characteristically exhibited on the under 
side of the shell, the deep violet lining of the aperture, and the rose- 
tinted apex upon a neatly coronated white spire.
