one of tliese is immediately above the suture, while the upper one is at some little 
distance bolow the periphery, which projects considerably beyond them. Base of 
the last whorl rather short, marked by two strong spiral keels, which are rather 
closely spaced and enclose a narrow channel between them. The space between 
the posterior keel and the periphery is quite strongly concave. The space between 
the basal keel and the narrow, almost covered, umbilicus is well arched and mar- 
ked by right slender lirations, which are less strongly developed and more closely 
spaced about the umbilical area than at the keel. These lirations as well as the 
two basal keels are rendered faintly crenulate by the incremental lines. The spaces 
between the spiral keels and the lirations are marked by many exceedingly fine in- 
cised spiral striations, both on the spire and the base. Aperture slightly effuse ba- 
sally, irregulär in outline ; the peripheral keel marking a deep acute angle and the 
two basal ones slowly rounded channels in the thin outer lip; columella slender, 
concave and somewhat reflected over the umbilical opening; parietal wall covered 
with a thin callus.
