In Style of markings this species recalls to mind V. furneri, 

 but the lines are more undulating and it does not exhibit any 

 trace of the two faint transverse bands of blotches which occur 

 in that species. It belongs to that section of the genus which 

 includes V. aidica, V. deshayesti, &c., and it will be figured by 

 Mr. Sowerby in his forthcoming Supplement. to the Monograph 

 of Voluta in the ' Thesaurus Conchyliorum.'
