The frfl I thus defcribe : The open of the fliell i$ pretty 
round, the fecond turn or wreathis very large for the proporti- 
on 5 and the reft of the wreaths , about the number of j(ix, are 
ftiUleffen'd to a point. ThisTurbenor Conical figure is well 
neare a quarter of an inch 5 the colour ot theftitllis du^kflbj 
yet when the fhiunk animall gives leave, you may fee day 
through it 5 and thelitis of ayellowifli colour, Thefe (hells 
are extreamc brittle and tender , fo that I cannot fend them 
in a Letter : You may guels at the figure, if I tell you , they

Of the fecond fort I fend you indofed at a venture halfe a do- 
zm y ( you fee , in that I can fo plentifully repair the lofsof 
the former , that they are not very rare 5 ( they feem to be much 
ftrong&r and thicker flieird; they are well near half as long a- 
gain as the other , and as flender 5 they have the exad figure of 
Oat corn, being as it were p Dinted at both ends, and the

there being a peculiar Sims in the lower part thereof. I think , 
you may number about 10, Spires, having their turn from the 
right hand to the left. The colour of the Shell is of a dark and 
reddifh brown. 
There are two forts of thi^ make defcribed , and with their 
refpe^ive Cutts^ in Fatms Columnar but ours agree not with 
ifeem in any\hing more than the odd Turn: though 'listaic, 
that the other , the third there defcribed, and call'dbyhim 
CochleaTcmfiristmbinata et /?r/4^45is very frequent in the road 
'fiwix^ Canterbu y and Dover , and likewife in fome wooddy 
pirts of the Woles in Lincoln-fhirf. There are odd differences 
in this very Snailc very remarkable , as its having but one pair 
cfihorns ( if I miflake not , ) as alfo a hard flielly cover 5 its man- 
ner of wearing that cover S'c. which I leave to another oppor- 
tunity and place.
