227. FlSSURELLA (GrLTPHIs) CORBICULA, SoW. ? 



Not quite normal, as the perforatioa is more rotund than iu 

 either typical F. corbicula or F. lanceolata, Sow. The solitiiry 

 example was so covered with extraneous growths and somewhat 

 broken, that we cannot with absolute certainty pronounce upon it.

 white papillae ; the form is ovate, apex incurved, much over-
