 Plate XXX. Fig. 10 



F. testa fusiformi; anfractibus lineis convolutis elevatis; anfractibus superioribus transverse, 

 obtuse striatis; apertura elliptica; labro non-incrassato; columella prope basim plicata; rostris 

 sub-rejlexis. 



Description. Shell fusiform; whorls with raised revolving lines, the upper ones with 

 transverse, obtuse ridges ; aperture elliptic; outer lip not thickened; cohimellar with a fold 

 near the base; beak a little reflected. 



The absence of ribs upon the body whorl and the more fusiform character of this shell, 

 distinguishes it from F. riiomboides. 



Dedicated to our deceased friend and co-laborer, Prof. M. Tuomey, who discovered it.
