GASTEROPODA. 57 
Menestuo tavieata, S. Wood. Supplement, Tab. IV, fig. 19. 
Spec. Char. Testa elongata turrita, levigata, apice obtusiusculo ; anfractibus (8—9) 
planulatis, apertura ovata posterius angulata quinquepartem teste equante; columella 
encurva, labro simplice, acuto. 
Length, + an inch. 
Locality. Coralline Crag, Sutton. 
A few imperfect specimens, and one perfect, were found by myself in the Cor. 
Crag of Sutton. The perfect one figured was destroyed while in the hands of the engraver 
(1866). Some years after that Mr. Bell sent to me a very perfect individual of what 
possibly may be the same species, but with the name of J. Britannica. Myr. Bell’s 
shell was found at Sutton. The shell figured had about eight volutions, the upper 
three or four more conical than the lower, which were nearly cylindrical; the apex was 
obtuse and glossy, and the rest of the shell free from stria or sculpture of any kind; the 
volutions slightly convex, the upper part being a little contracted; it had a distinct and 
rather depressed suture; the aperture ovate, acuminated at the junction of the whorl, 
and it was an elegantly formed shell. It much resembles Pyramis striatula, Couthouy 
(‘Boston Journ. Nat. Hist.,’ vol. ti, p. 101, Pl. I, fig. 6, described also by Gould, 
‘Inv. Mass.,’ p. 269, fig. 174, but that shell is said to be covered “ with revolving 
lines,” and is probably the same as Menestho albula; wy shell is smooth. 
PYRAMIDELLA LaviuscuLA, S. Wood. Crag Moll., vol. i, p. 77, Tab. IX, fig. 2. 
Localities. Cor. Crag, Sutton, and near Orford. Red Crag, Walton Naze. 
Pyramidella leviuscula of the Crag has, according to Mr. Jeffreys, been obtained 
recent in the Mediterranean. It is also a fossil in the Belgian Crag, and in the Vienna 
beds, figured by Hérnes, vol. i, p. 492, Tab. XLIV, fig. 20, and there referred to P. plicosa, 
Bronn. M. Nyst figured it as P. ¢eredellata. It is probably terebellata, Broc., but not 
of Lamarck. Whether this be the wnzsulcata, Dujardin, I do not know. There are two 
or three species in the Bordeaux beds of nearly the same size; Pyramidella mitrula, 
‘ Bast. Bord. Foss.,’ Pl. I, fig. 5, is probably another species. I must refer to M. Deshayes, 
‘Par. Foss.” vol. ui, p. 583, who has given full particulars of these fossil Pyramidelle. 
I have obtamed a specimen from the Cor. Crag, near Orford, of this species, which is 
more elongated than any of my Sutton specimens, and I obtained the shell from the Red 
Crag of Walton very soon after the publication of the ‘ Crag Mollusca.’ This shell has 
been found abundantly in the Coralline Crag at Sutton.
