CANCELLATED. (From Cancellatus, cross-barred) Applied gene- 

 rally to any shells which are marked by ridges crossing each other 

 as Cancellaria, fig. 385. 



CANCILLA. Sw. A sub-genus of Mitrse, described as having "the 

 whorls crossed by transverse linear ribs ; inner canal wanting, 

 plates very oblique ; form slender ; outer lip thin." Ex. M. 

 Isabella, M. sulcata. 



CANCRIS. Montf. Crepidulina, Bl. A genus of microscopic 

 Foraminifera. 



CANOPUS. Montf. A genus of microscopic Foraminifera. 



CANTHAPLEURA. Guild. A genus composed of those species 

 of Chiton, which have the mantle rough, with moveable spines, 

 prickles, or hairs. Ex. C. spinosus, fig. 227.

CANTHARUS. Montf. A genus of microscopic Foraminifera. 



CANTHIDOMUS. Sw. A sub-genus of Melanopsis, thus described : 

 "spire generally short; whorls coronated with spines, or 

 marked with longitudinal ribs; base obtuse. C. costata, Sow. Gen. 

 f. 3." Melanopsis costata, plates, fig. 315. 



CANTHORB1S. Sw. A sub-genus of the sub-family Trochime, Sw. 

 Described as being " nearly disc-shaped : spire but slightly 

 raised ; the margin of the body-whorl flattened, and serrated 

 with flat spines ; inner lip united to the outer ; pillar and aper- 

 ture as in the last. (Tubicanthus) C. imperialis. Mart. 173. f. 

 1714." This sub-genus appears to include those species of which 

 De Montfort's genera Imperator and Calcar are formed. 



CANTHROPES. Montf. Described as resembling a Nautilus, 

 with the whorls increasing so gradually, that the dorsal edge 

 of the aperture advances but little beyond the last whorl. 

 This genus is not mentioned by Blainville or Lamarck.
