S. p. 
A fossil shell. The original an Anomia. Imperforate. 
One valve convex and gibbous; the other concave. Hinge 
close, straight, but shorter or less extended than in the 
preceding species. The circumference of the shell rounded; 
its surface striated transversely ; the striae remote or distant 
from each other, and somewhat irregular and unequal; 
the spaces between them punctate, or dotted with hollow 
points. The beak is obtuse and rounded ; and, generally, 
hooked over the hinge. 
Common, particularly near Buxton and Chelmerton. 
Fig. 6. A large specimen in brown limestone. The 
beak broken.

perfect.
