Habitat. — Off South Africa (Bory de Saint Vincent). 
The only account of this species is that given by Bory de Saint Vincent. It has 
been considered by some authors identical with the Mediterranean species commonly 
called Carinaria mediterranea. If only the animal had been figured and described there 
would have been no hesitation in pronouncing the identity of the two species ; but in 
the description of the shell Bory de Saint Vincent points out certain features which 
clearly separate his species. He describes it as being “ sans carene, et avec de legeres 
stries qui, au lieu d’etre circulates, partent du sommet et arrivent au limbe en diver- 
geant.” 
No other known species of Carinaria has radiating sculpture of that kind, but on the 
contrary they all exhibit similar circular or concentric plications. Still the account given 
by the author is so explicit that one can scarcely suppose that the radiating striae were 
imaginary. The absence of a keel might be accounted for, supposing the shell to be 
damaged.
