  See

  This 
  shell 
  was 
  described 
  first 
  as 
  

   umeralis, 
  perhaps 
  by 
  a 
  lapsus 
  calami, 
  in 
  which 
  case 
  the 
  emended 
  

   version 
  might 
  be 
  allowed 
  to 
  stand. 
  Pyrgxdiyia 
  Zea, 
  Hedley," 
  judging 
  

   by 
  the 
  figure, 
  seems 
  similar, 
  but 
  here 
  in 
  the 
  penultimate 
  whorl 
  the 
  

   lower 
  keel 
  is 
  beaded. 
  We 
  do 
  not 
  yet 
  know 
  to 
  what 
  extent 
  this 
  

   species 
  and 
  its 
  allies 
  vary 
  inter 
  se.

  This 
  very 
  select 
  little 
  species 
  was 
  originally 
  described 
  from 
  

   specimens 
  extracted 
  from 
  shell-sand 
  gathered 
  by 
  Mr. 
  Alexander 
  

   Abercrombie 
  in
