Jeffreys records this species from the Gulf of St. Lawrence (coll. 
Whiteaves), and from Greenland and Iceland. The shell intended 
may he only a variety of B.caucellata. Jeffreys, in the paper quoted, 
erroneously referred the latter to B. Pingelii. lie states, however, 
that he has examined Holler’s original specimens. 
Bela angulosa G. O. Sars. 
Op. cit., p. 227, pi. 16, fig. 16. pi. viii, fig. 10, 1878. 
From Principal J. W. Dawson I have received a shell, dredged by 
him off Metis, mouth of the St. Lawrence River, which agrees very 
closely with Sars’ description and figure of this species. 
It is a very slender species with six whorls; the whorls are carinate- 
shouldered, and crossed by rather distant, large, angular ribs, very 
prominent at the shoulder, strongly excurved just above the shoulder, 
and becoming small on the subsutural band. Spiral lines numerous 
and fine, not present on the subsutural band. Aperture long and 
narrow; outer lip angulated, with a distinct sinus. Canal rather 
long, narrow, straight. Color white. 
Length, 10 mm ; breadth, 4 mm ; length of body-whorl, 7 mm ; length 
of aperture, 5 mm ; width, P5 mm . This resembles the preceding species, 
but is more slender, with a narrower canal. The spiral lines are ab- 
sent from the subsutural band.

Shell small, angular-fusiform, with a moderately elevated, acute 
spire. Whorls six, strongly angulated and slightly carinated near 
the middle; the wide subsutural band, above the carina, slopes regu- 
larly and is flat, or a little concave. 
A young specimen (fig. 18), having five whorls, has five revolving, 
nodulous carime on the body-whorl: one close to the suture; the sec-
