OLIVA Salisburiana. 
TAB. CCLXXXVIII . — Lower Figures . 
Spec. Char. Subfusiform, shorty ventricose, smooth ; 
mouth oblong, both lips tumid above. 
The angular or fusiform shape of this will distinguish 
it from most of its congeners : its width is about two- 
thirds the length, the widest part being near the upper 
edge of the last turn, below which it is conical: the 
great thickness of the two lips at the upper angle of the 
mouth separates the spiral canal to some distance from 
the preceding whorls : the spire is short and conical. 
A new species, generally confounded with V. Ispidula 
of Brander : the larger specimen is in the collection of 
Miss Salisbury, whose zeal I wish to commemorate, 
I have received a middling sized one from Miss Bemin- 
ster, and Lady Burgoine has lent me the young state ; 
I find the characters the same in all.
