The shell from Stat. 306 is a worn, quite bleached specimen, this accounts for the great 

 depth at which it has been dredged, it will most probably have been washed down.

Though I must admit that the characters of the radula are often insufficient to decide 

 upon the specific value of species, the differences between the radula of the species under 

 consideration and the preceding one, seem to be of too much importance, to consider them 

 as varieties of one and the same species. It would be interesting to examine the radulae of 

 specimens which conchologically are intermediate, and to make out, to which of the two forms 

 they are the nearest allies.
