Description. — Sliell small, rather elevated, trochiform, slightly turrited. Spire 
consisting of about four rather narrow whorls. Suture excavated, deep, and 
rather broad, crenulated by the ornament. Whorls spreading out obliquely for a 
short distance from the suture, and then becoming flat and conical till they bend 
in a little at the lower suture. Ornament on the upper whorls consisting of broad, 
flat, rather oblique, straight, transverse ridges, which are divided by similar 
furrows, and which in the lower whorls become broken by spiral furrows into 
four rows of rather confluent, large, elevated, blunt mammillee or tubercles, of 
which the first and third rows are smaller and lower than the second and fourth. 
Body-whorl slightly rounding-in below. Base and mouth not seen. Shell- 
structure rather thick. 
Size. — Height about 14 mm., width about 11 mm. 
Locality. — There are three specimens in the Torquay Museum, two of which 
are in the Battersby Collection, They probably came from Lummaton or Barton. 
Bemarhs. — Sowerby describes under the name of Turbo suhangulatus an 
obscure water-worn shell which differs from our specimens in having only three 
spiral ridges, and, judging from his figure, in being rather more elongate. He 
does not state whether the spiral ridges are tuberculated ; and, indeed, his speci- 
men is so poor that probably all trace of tubercles, as well as of the fourth ridge, may 
have been worn away. It is, therefore, most probable that these Torquay shells 
belong to his species ; although from its description it is quite impossible to speak 
with any degree of certainty one way or the other. I have been unable to 
meet with the type specimen. 
This shell is not to be confounded with Turbo subangulosus, F. A. Komer,^ 
which is a totally different form. 
Phillips gives the name of Macrocheilus ? neglectus to an unidentifiable frag- 
ment from Brushford, but appends to it Sowerby's description of the present shell.
