 Diam. 1.4, Length .8 of an inch. 



Remarks.— The several specimens which are before me differ but Uttle in 

 character. The region of the umbilicus is, like the band on the periphery, of 

 a fine deep yellow, which is more or less expanded on the several specimens. 

 In some of the individuals the concellate appearance does not extend to the 

 periphery; it never goes below it, the inferior portion of the whorls being per- 

 fectly smooth, or slightly striated longitudinally. It has some resemblance to 

 the dark varieties of H. citrina, Lam., but is more closely allied to H. Nuttalli- 

 awa,,. (nobis.) It cannot, however, be easily confounded with any species, 

 known to me.
