Turritella kimberi, n. sp. Pl. xv., f. 14, 15. AOR 
Shell thin, long, nar row, imperforate, of ten whorls wit 
out the protoconch, which is absent. Another individual 
shows a long tapering protoconch of four smooth convex 
white whorls. Sutures deep. Spire-whorls well rounded; 
with equidistant, low, spiral ribs, six in the penultimate, the 
infrasutural one being the least valid, the upper slope of the 
rib very steep and short, nearly vertical, the.lower long and 
sloping; the intercostal furrows appearing in the throat as 
opaque white capillary spiral lines. The body-whorl has ten 
spirals; base convex. Aperture slightly oblique, elliptical ; 
outer lip thin, uniformly convex; inner lip a scarcely percep- 
tible glaze on ‘the body-whorl ; columellar lip nearly straight, 
narrowly reflected; basal lip slightly effuse. Colour translu. 
cent white. 
Dim.—Length, 77 mm.; breadth, 17; length of aper- 
ture, 1°4 mm.; width, ‘9. 
Locality.—Type, Backstairs Passage, 20 fathoms, with 
eight others fresh but dead. Port Willunga, one (Kimber). 
Type in Dr. Verco’s collection. 
Obs.—It may reach 8°5 mm. in length. 
Diagnosis.—Turitella parva, Angas, differs in its brown 
colour and its light chestnut sutural band, its three keels on 
the whorls, its subquadrate aperture, and in its columella 
thickened and produced at the base. 
Seila attenuata, Hedley, superficially resembles it, but 
differs in its anterior notch. ,
