378 SOWERBY : marine shells of south AFRICA. 



picta, raSiaii/n costata ; costis 26, plamdatis, rotunde con- 

 spicue nodidosis ; interstitiis aiigustis, transvershn sulcatis ; 

 urnbones prominentes ; pagina interna alba, tUrinqtie fusco 

 tincta. 



Anteropost. 12, umboiw-marg. 12. 



Hab. Port Elizabeth. 



This species is quoted by me — ' Marine Shells of 



South Africa,' p. 61 — as C. fasciatum from worn valves 



found at Port Elizabeth. Having now seen shells in better 



preservation (though still only odd valves) I am convinced 



of my error. The nodules are easily worn off, leaving the 



ribs smooth.
