GASTEROPODA. 23 



convex volutions, which are encircled with six regular striations ; the aperture is ovate, the 

 base somewhat flattened and smooth ; there is no umbilical depression. 



A small shell, with the last volution expanded and depressed ; the striations are rendered 

 slightly scabrous by very delicate, obtuse, decussating ornamentation, partially preserved, 

 and which is only visible under a considerable magnifying power.

 collected by Mr. AVitchell. 



MONODONTA COMPOSITA, Li/c. Tab. XLV, fig. 6. 



Testa parva suhdepressa, sjnra anfractihus 3 — 4 anyustis, angulatis, superne concavis ; 

 lineis anyustis, regularihus subdistantibus cingendis, anfractu ultimo permagno, superne 

 costulis depressis longittidinalibus lineis decussatis ; aperturd magna ovatd, columella 

 solida, dentata. 



Shell small, rather depressed ; spire with the volutions (3 — 4), angulated in their 

 middle part, narrow, delicate, and rather distantly arranged, the last volution is very large ; 

 the surface above the mesial keel is concave, and has closely arranged, depressed, longitu- 

 dinal, little elevations or ribs, which are rendered nodulous in their upper parts by the 

 encircling lines ; the aperture is moderately large ; the columella has a conspicuous 

 thickening at its base ; there is also a slight umbilical depression.

Solarium Bathonicum, Lye. Tab. XLV, figs. 27, 27 a, 27 b, 27 c. 



Testa parva depressa, sujjerne planata, inf erne concav6,concentrice striata ; anfractibus 

 (3) angustis tabulatis, externe subcarinatis nodulisque paucis, obscuris, coronatis ; lateribus 

 subconvexis striatis. 



Shell small, depressed, flattened above, concave beneath and concentrically striated ; 

 volutions (3) narrow, tabulated, externally slightly carinated, and with a few obscure 

 coronary tubercles; the upper and lateral surfaces have encircling striations, the sides 

 being slightly convex. 



The specimen examined has a diameter of only two lines, the height being equal to 

 about one third of the breadth.
