Pyrula elongata. 
Shell elongate, fig-shaped, thin, regularly cancellated, pale brown, with many irregular longitudinal 
streaks; the spire conical, convex, blunt; last whorl very large, much elongated, and attenuated in front, with 
fine transverse, and rather broader, equal, regular spiral ribs. Axis 4 inches. 
Inhab. China. 
Like P. reticulata , but more regularly cancellated, differently coloured, and larger and more slender. 
This species has the suture rather more callous than P. reticulata, but not so much so as P. Ficus.

Inhab. 
Pyrula Maweji. Favanne, Concli. t. 34./. F. 
Shell distorted, largely umbilicated, white, finally spirally striated ; spire above flat, with a central 
point ; whorls trigonal behind, flat, with a sharp ridge of reflexed triangular spinous processes, the lower 
ones becoming disjointed, compressed, and expanded in front, and edged with large triangular compressed 
spines, outer entire ; throat smooth. 
Inhab. China. 
This species is most like Pyrula Papa, but differs in the flatness of the top of the spire and back of the 
whorls, and in the keel being formed with compressed spines. It is somewhat like the Cancellaria trigonos- 
toma in shape, but has no plaits on the columella. 
Pyrula crassa.

Fusus Japonicus. 
Shell elongate, fusiform ; whorls convex, two-keeled, the hinder keel elevated, acute, with a series of very 
compressed incurved spines ; the anterior keel acute, simple. Mouth small ; canal as long as the spire, 
cylindrical, with three or four oblique spiral bands of small spines in the middle. Axis 24 inches.
