bilical belt. The only specimen known to me is an elevated abnormal 

 form ; and I think both the conoidal shape and the lower supra- 

 sutural belt result from the coiling of the seven whorls npon the 

 carinal belt instead of, as usual, upon the groove above it. The 

 central rows of spots are somewhat linear. S. Icevigatum and S. 

 purjpuratum are its nearest congeners. 



S. REGIUM, Hani. Testa depresso-conica : sutura suhcanalieu- 

 lata. Anfractus in cingula 4 planulata subcequalia, in spira 

 in rhombos satis latos sulcis radiantibus diffracta, sulcis 3 spi- 

 ralibus divisi. Cingulum superius albidum, maculis (nisi apicem 

 versus brunneis) magnis ad cingulum secundum defluis subcon- 

 fertim pictum ; pei'ipheria maculis similibus ad zonam proxi- 

 mam ascendentibus ornata ; ita ut in anfractu ultimo pars 

 tantum area medice macularum est expers. Filum tenue infra 

 quartum cingulum inter peripherice cingula 2 subcequalia per- 

 magnum fit. Carinam albidam remote maculatam filum et 

 deinde cingulum validum et simile sequitur. Basis area media 

 vel mere pallida, vel marginem versus interiorem punctis linea- 

 ribus remotis aspersa. Cingula 2 alba, utrumque sulco lata 

 circumscriptum, umbilicum (cujus crence sunt latce) satis am- 

 plum circumdant.

Allied to S. maximum and 8. quadriceps ; but in the former tlie 

 third zone is much wider than the second, and in the latter the 

 threads, teeth, &c. differ greatly. The earlier turns are whitish 

 near the suture, elsewhere livid rufous. The unique example is 

 scarcely mature, but exhibits nearly seven volutions. 



S. TAYLORi. Testa depresso-conica, solida, fulva : sutura late 

 canaliculata. Anfractus in cingula A fusco-rufescente articu- 

 latim picta (tertio, quod 2 preecedentia fere cequat, excepto) et 

 sulcis radiantibus (nisi in anfractu ultimo rudibus subremotis) 

 in rhombos multo latiores quam altos diffracta, sulcis latius- 

 culis (tertio prcesertim) eccimie divisi. Peripheries cingula ge- 

 mina subcequalia similiterque picta ; intervallum haud insculp- 

 tum, (sque latum, sulci prcecedentis latitudinem vix superans. 

 ArecB basalis pars media maculis brunneis perparvis tantum 

 marginem juxta interiorem ornata., alibi magis minusve Icevis. 

 Sulcus carince obtusce proximus, latiusculus, haud filosus. Cin- 

 gulum inter sulcos latos umbilico vicinos conspicue angustum. 

 Crence umbilici subangusti satis magnce, carneo-rufescentes.

In the only example known to me, the articulation is not developed 

 upon the earlier turns ; the first belt, however, is paler than the rest. 

 It is allied to S. maximum and S. quadriceps, from both of which the
