only one is in a good condition. It is certainly very like G. miocaenicum, 
but differs slightly in several ways. The body-whorl is even more globose 
than that of G. miocaenicum, so that the distance from the umbilicus to 
the base of the shell is very short, thus causing the spirals to abut on the 
lower part of the inner lip at a high angle. The umbilicus is slightly wider 
than in the Awamoan species. More specimens, however, are required to 
show whether these differences are constant and worth specific recogni- 
tion. It is possible that the relationship is closer to G. spirale, which 
has a higher spire and shorter anterior development than G. miocaenicum.

who collected a specimen at Cape Maria van Dan It is possible that 
із shell was a G. venustum. Huttón’s two syntypes of Natica laevis 
are identical in every respect with G. undulatum except that the spiral 
ornamentation is lacking. A careful scrutiny of the surface shows that 
it is much pitted, and that there are traces of the spirals in protected areas, 
It is therefore practically certain that the sculpture has been worn off by 
attrition in the shell-bed from which the specimens came.
