;36s Costa Rica Miockne— Olsson 93 



Olivella muticoides Maury, 1917, Bull. Amer. Pal., vol. 5, p. 232, pi. 

 II, fig. I. 



A broad, chubby species with a spire of raoderate length. A 

 large, thick callus is formed about the upper part of the inner 

 lip, which spreads partly over the back of the penultimate whorl, 

 giving to it a hump-back appearance. Measurements of our 

 Costa Rican shell run as follows: 



Length 17, diameter 7, last whorl 14, spire 6.5 mm. 

 13 6.5 II 5-5 mm. 



Gatun Stage: Coll. 5, Red Cliff Creek. 



Coll. 4., East Grape Point Creek.

The Olivella indivisa Guppy (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. 

 19, p. 308, pi. 30, fig. 10) from Jamaica and Olivella Boussaci 

 Cossmann from Martinique, belong to a closely related series 

 characterized by their high and sharpl}^ pointed spire. The 

 main difference seems to be that of size. The indivisa has a 

 length of 6.5 mm., the Boussaci oi 9 mm. The Costa Rican shells 

 are generally larger and when full-grown, often 13 or more mm. 

 in length. 



Often very common. 



Length 13, diameter 5, last whorl 10, spire 6.5 mm (6 

 whorls)
