DESCRIPTION: Shell small, rather thin. Body 
whorl elongate, bearing rather distantly and 
irregularly spaced incised spiral lines marked 
by small punctures. Aperture narrow, outer 
lip protracted. Shoulder angular, ridged; spire 
elevated, turreted, concave, striate, compris- 
ing at least one third of the total shell length; 
apex sharp. Early whorls smooth, succeeding 
whorls with slender protracting curved axial 
riblets which fuse to form strong nodules at 
the shoulder, the nodules becoming less con- 
spicuous on the latest whorls. Color of body 
whorl white to pale buff, marked with inter- 
rupted broad brown spiral bands either side 
of the center. Rows of brown dots between 
the striae mark the light area between the 
brown bands. Spire marked by distantly 
spaced rather regular broad brown spots. 
Periostracum grayish white, bearing lamellae 
on the fine riblets of the spire. 
length: 30 mm. 
TYPE locality: "Mers des grandes Indes.” 
REMARKS: Specimens of C. acutangulus 
been collected in Hawaii by dredging in com-
