Remarks, — ^During Mr Peale's travels in Colombia, he found a sin- 

 gle specimen of this beautiful species, and I am indebted to his kind- 

 ness for the privilege of describing it. In this individual the longitu- 

 nal spots are more numerous on the whorl next to the body-whorl, 

 there being none on that part near to the outer lip.
