THE  three  extensive  families  of  mollusks  monographed  in  this 
volume  of  the  Manual  of  Conchology,  include  several  of  the 
most  beautiful  of  the  marine  genera.  The  material  upon  the 
study  of  which  I  have  based  my  text  is  unusually  ample,  enabling 
me  to  make  numerous  satisfactory  adjustments  of  the  synonymy, 
and  to  illustrate  many  variations  in  addition  to  the  typical  forms 
of  the  species.  It  is  hoped  that  the  figures  will  enable  naturalists 
to  identify  their  specimens  with  facility  and  certainty.  Excep- 
tion has  been  taken  to  some  of  the  figures  heretofore  published 
in  this  work,  on  the  ground  that  they  are  uncharacteristic  in 
drawing  and  coloring  :  these  illustrations  are  faithful  copies  of 
the  original  (or  tj-pical)  figures,  such  as  I  almost  invariably  give, 
if  published;  and  they  are  supplemented,  whenever  it  is  possible 
to  do  so,  by  better  illustrations  of  the  same  species. 

The  next  volume  of  the  Manual  will  be  devoted  to  the  im- 
portant group  of  the  Toxifera — including  Cancellaria,  Terebra, 
Conus,  Pleurotoma.  Towards  its  completion  1  again  ask  the 
kindly  aid  of  authors  and  collectors,  who  may  possess  unfigured 
or  critical  species.  »

See  what  a  lovely  shell, 
Small  and  pure  as  a  pearl, 
Lying  close  to  my  foot, 
Frail,  but  a  work  divine, 
Made  so  fairly  well 
With  delicate  spire  and  whorl. 
How  exquisitely  minute, 
A  miracle  of  design  I 

What  is  it? — a  learned  man 
Could  give  it  a  clumsy  name. 
Let  him  name  it  who  can, 
The  beauty  would  be  the  same.

Oh  what  an  endless  work  have  I  in  hand, 
To  count  the  sea's  abundant  progeny  !

MANUAL  OF  CONOHOLOGY 


Family  MARGINELLID  J3. 

Animal  having  tentacles  arising  close  together,  the  eyes  on  the 
lower  portion  or  near  the  middle  of  the  tentacles  ;  mantle  with 
expanded  side-lobes,  covering  the  back  of  the  shell,  as  in  Cyprsea; 
siphon  elongate,  simple  at  base ;  foot  large,  truncate  in  front, 
produced  behind.  Operculnm  usually  none. 

Shell  porcellanous,  polished,  usually  smooth,  or  with  longi- 
tudinal ribs  ;  spire  short  or  immersed,  body-whorl  ample  ;  aper- 
ture nearly  the  length  of  the  shell,  the  outer  lip  usually  with 
thickened  margin,  smooth  or  dentated  within,  the  inner  lip  with 
several  distinct  plaits  on  the  columella. 

Dentition.  In  possessing  rhachidian  teeth,  without  laterals, 
the  lingual  armature  of  Marginella  resembles  that  of  Voluta, 
whilst  the  shape  of  the  plate  and  its  dentated  edge  are  very 
similar  to  that  of  Mitridse  ;  lateral  teeth  being  added,  however, 
in  the  latter  family.  A  single  species  of  Erato  (the  only  one 
examined),  possesses  laterals  like  Trivia  in  Cyprseidae,  and  upon 
this  ground  the  genus  has  been  placed  in  that  family  b}*  some 
systematists  (fl.  2,  fig.  7). 

The  expanded  mantle-lobes,  covering  the  shell — which  thus 
receives  a  polished  surface,  and  is  devoid  of  epidermis — immedi- 
ately suggest  relationship  with  the  cowries  ^  Cyprsea),  but  more 
particularly  with  the  Olives  and  Ancillaria,  on  the  one  side ; 
whilst  the  presence  and  position  of  the  columellar  plaits,  as  well 
as  the  form  of  many  of  the  species,  on  the  other  side,  approxi- 
mates the  family  to  Mitra  and  Voluta. 

Stimpson  created  a  family  Cystiscidae  for  a  little  Marginella- 
like  shell  dredged  by  him  near  the  Cape  of  Good  Hope.  The 
animal  has  an  elongated,  narrow  foot ;  the  head  is  oblong. 


depressed,  bifurcated  in  front  to  form  short,  triangular,  flattened 
and  horizontal  tentacles,  and  the  eyes  are  at  the  lateral  margins 
of  the  head  a  little  behind  the  bases  of  these  tentacles  ;  nientum 
as  broad  as  the  head,  but  not  extending  beyond  the  tips  of  the 
tentacles.  The  dentition  (PI.  :2,  fig.  11)  is  essentially  that  of 
Marginella.  Notwithstanding  these  differences  of  the  animal, 
I  agree  with  Mr.  Redfield,  who  has  included  Cystiscus  Capensis  in 
his  "Catalogue  of  Marginella."  It  is  very  probable  that  when  more 
specimens  of  the  soft  parts  shall  have  been  examined  the  result 
will  be  the  discovery  of  many  divergences  from  the  structure 
of  the  larger  species  which  have  furnished  the  family  diagnosis. 
Besides  the  Cystixcu*.  other  instances  of  variation  from  the 
normal  type  of  Marginellidae  have  been  recently  recorded.  M. 
de  Maltzan  has  collected  at  Goree,  coast  of  Senegambia,  several 
specimens  of  Marginella  glabella  containing  the  animal.  Some 
of  these  are  provided  with  a  well-developed  operculum,  whilst 
others  (as  diagnosed  for  the  family)  have  none.*  Messrs.  Crosse 
and  Fischer  having  examined  the  lingual  dentition  of  one  of 
these  operculated  individuals,  were  surprised  to  find  it  differ 
from  that  of  all  other  Marginellae  hitherto  known,  in  possessing 
lateral  teeth,  resembling  Buccinum.f  Maltzan  has  proposed  a 
new  genus.  Pseudom&rginella,  for  the  operculated  shells  ;  which 
he  supposes  to  inhabit  rocky  shores,  whilst  the  others  live  on 
sand,  at  15  to  30  fathoms ;  although  the  evidence  he  presents  of 
this  difference  of  habit  is  insufficient.  Two  Pseudomarginellse 
are  described,  one  of  which  has  an  unguiculate  operculum,  that 
of  the  other  being  lamellar,  like  Purpura  ;  they  both  possess  a 
narrow  foot,  with  a  small  gland,  and  in  one  of  them  the  tentacles 
are  short  and  broad,  in  the  other  short  and  roynd.  All  these 
characters  differ  much  from  the  broad  foot,  with  large  u  land  and 
the  long  tentacles  of  the  typical  Marginella — yet  the  shells  are 
indistinguishable  from  that  of  the  typical  M.  glabella. 

Messrs.  H.  and  A.  Adams,  in  their  "  Genera  of  Recent  Mol- 
lusca,"  include  the  genus  Pachybathron,  Gaskoin,  in  this  family, 
but  its  closer  relationship  with  Cassidida?  is  very  evident.  The

ERATO.  7 

genus  Ringicula,  Deshayes,  has  also  been  thought  to  resemble 
Marginella  in  its  shell,  but  this  resemblance  is  a  superficial  one 
only,  and  recent  studies  of  the  animal  have  confirmed  its  con- 
chological  approximation  to  Actseon.* 

Synopsis  of  Genera. 

ERATO,  Risso.  Shell  obovate,  polished  ;  spire  short,  conical,  distinct ; 
aperture  linear  ;  outer  lip  without  varix,  but  thickened  towards  the 
middle,  denticulate  within  ;  columella  with  distinct  plaits  at  the  fore- 
part. Dentition,f  PI.  2,  fig.  7. 

Subgenus  ERATOPSIS,  Hoernes  and  Auinger.  Shell  granular-tuberculate, 
with  a  longitudinal  sulcus  on  the  back  of  the  body- whorl  as  in  Trivia. 

MARGINELLA,  Lamarck.  Shell  ovately  oblong  to  subcylindrical. 
smooth,  polished,  sometimes  longitudinally  ribbed  ;  spire  short,  conical 
or  concealed ;  aperture  narrow,  elongated,  obtuse  or  truncated  in  front  ; 
columella  plicate  ;  outer  lip  with  a  thick  marginal  varix,  its  inner 
margin  smooth  or  crenulated.  Dentition,  PI.  2,  figs.  8,  10. 

Subgenus  VOLVARIA,  Lam.  Shell  subcylindrical,  spire  very  short  or 
concealed  ;  outer  lip  of  aperture  without  varix  or  thickening.  Dentition, 
PI.  2,  fig.  9. 

The  type  of  Volvaria  is  F.  buttoides,  Lam.,  an  eocene  fossil  of  France 
and  Belgium  (Plate  8,  fig.  28). 

(ienus  EKATO.   Ri>so. 

The  few  recent  species  comprised  in  this  group,  were  approx- 
imated to  Cypraea,  Valuta,  Columbella  and  Marginella  by 
ancient  authors ;  and  in  proposing  their  new  genus  Eratopsis, 
Messrs.  Hoernes  and  Auinger  remark  upon  the  close  resemblance 
of  its  species  to  the  Trivia,  or  more  properly  Pustularia  group 
of  Cypraeidae.  The  only  animal  of  the  genus  that  has  been 
figured  is  that  of  the  European  species  E.  laevis  (PL  4,  fig.  40)  ;

f  I  figure  the  dentition  of  Erato  callosa,  Ad.  and  Reeve,  the  only 
species  which  has  been  examined.  It  is  entirely  unlike  the  normal  type 
of  Marginella,  and  approximates  closely  to  that  of  Cyprwa.  A  form  of 
Marginella  glabella  has,  however,  been  recently  discovered  to  possess 
lateral  teeth  (ante  p.  G  .  Troschel  has  made  serious  mistakes  in  the  identi- 
fication of  species  of  which  he  gives  the  dentition,  and  it  is  possible  that 
this  is  another.  It  will,  [  think,  be  necessary  to  have  more  evidence  before 
allowing  the  position* of  Erato  to  be  determined  by  the  dentition.  Con- 
chologically  it  is  certainly  closely  allied  to  Trivia  in  the  Cypneidse 


3  ERATO. 

it  is  very  like  Ct/prtra.  in  external  appearance,  even  to  the  tila- 
mentous  processes  of  the  mantle-lobes,  and  it  is  evident  that  the 
growth  of  these  processes  has  caused  an  inequality  in  the  applied 
surface  of  the  lobes,  sometimes  forming  pustules  on  the  shell  in 
Eratopnis,  in  precisely  the  same  manner  as  in  the  Pustularia 
group  of  Cypraea.  Reeve  remarks  in  the  introduction  of  the 
"  Monograph  of  Erato  "  (Conchologia  Iconica),  that  in  Erato, 
unlike  Marginella,  the  columella  is  not  plaited  from  an  early 
stage  of  growth,  but  that  the  denticulations  are  added  at 
maturity  ;  in  other  words,  the}^  are  denticulations  and  not  true 
plaits.  If  this  were  so,  it  would  be  another  character  in  common 
with  Cypraea,  but  my  observation  leads  me  to  the  conclusion 
that  it  is  not  entirely  true.  I  find  the  plaits  on  the  columella 
in  young  specimens  of  several  species,  but  in  addition,  there  is 
developed  on  the  inner  lip,  in  the  adults  only,  a  series  of  dentic- 
ulations like  Cypr&a,  and  at  the  same  period  changes  sometimes 
occur  in  the  appearance  of  the  plaits  caused  by  the  deposition 
of  calcareous  matter  upon  and  between  them,  so  that  these  come 
to  resemble  the  denticulations  situated  above  them.  Undoubtedly 
Erato,  through  Eratojisis,  conchologically  connects  Marginella 
with  the  Trivia  group  of  Cypraea  ;  the  balance  of  characters 
seems  to  indicate  a  rather  closer  relationship,  on  the  whole,  with 
Marginella  •  but  if  future  investigations  shall  show  that  the 
species  of  Erato  really  possess  the  dentition  assigned  to  the 
group,  then  it  would  perhaps  be  better  to  remove  it  to  the 
Triviinae. 

Erato  occurs  fossilized  in  the  miocene  and  pliocene  deposits 
of  Europe  and  America,  and  a  single  species  has  been  reported 
from  the  eocene  of  Texas  :  species  have  been  recently  charac- 
terized from  the  eocene  and  miocene  of  South  Australia  and 
Tasmania.

Plentiful  in  the  European  tertiaries. 

Jeffre}^  cites  a  var.  oblonga,  pure  white,  more  elongated,  and 
compressed  in  front.  The  animal,  says  this  author,  is  very 
lively  and  active,  a  great  beauty,  and  b}^  no  means  bashful. 
When  on  the  march  it  carries  the  branchial  tube  in  an  upturned

Swollen,  smooth,  brownish  white.     Length,  4  mill. 

East  Indies  (Reeve);  Philippines  (Cuming). 

The  posterior  elevation  of  the  outer  lip  forming  an  angle  at 
its  extremity  nearly  as  high  as  the  spire,  is  a  distinguishing 
feature  of  this  little  species. 

E.  MINUTA,  Reeve.     PI.  4,  fig.  45.

species. 

E.  GALLINACEA,  Hinds.     PL  4,  fig.  46. 

Pyriform,  callous  and  angulated  posteriori}',  produced  and 
beaked  anteriorly ;  lip  stoutly  swollen,  conspicuously  produced 
and  sinuate  at  its  posterior  extremity  ;  white  or  brownish  yellow, 
sometimes  with  a  superior,  irregular  band.  Length,  6  mill. 

Philippines ;  New  Guinea;  Torres  Sts.,  Australia.

Broadly  pyriform,  lip  elevated  behind  above  the  spire ;  yel- 
lowish red  or  roseate.  Length,  7 "5  mill. 

Mazatlan  to  Santa  Barbara,  Cal. 

E.  marginata,  Morch,  found  at  100  fathoms  at  Bocorones  I., 
near  Panama,  is  probably  a  synonym ;  and  I  suppose  that  the 
shell  described  by  Carpenter  as  E.  Mauyerise  var.  Panamensis  is 
its  exact  equivalent.  Neither  of  these  species  has  been  figured. 

E.  VITELLINA,  Hinds.     PL  4,  fig.  49. 

Obesely  ovate,  aperture  rather  wide ;  dark  red,  lighter  on  the 
thickened  lip-margin.  Length,  12  mill. 

Acapulco  to  Southern  California. 

The  largest  species  of  the  genus. 


ERATOPSIS.  1 1 

Fubgduis  Eratopsis,   Ha>rnes  and  Auingcr. 

This  group,  founded  for  fossils  of  the  Austrian  tertiary,  will 
include  several  recent  species.  The  first  and  largest  species 
which  I  refer  to  it,  is  also  the  most  doubtful  one,  for  of  the- 
many  specimens  of  E.  scabriuscula  before  me,  nearly  all  are 
smooth  and  polished,  without  a  trace  of  a  sulcus ;  yet  others 
correspond  with  the  figured  examples  in  the  various  monographs 
in  having  it. 

E.  SCABRIUSCULA,  Gray.     PL  4,  fig.  56. 

Oval, -rather  narrow,  with  elevated  spire;  ash-pink;  surface 
smooth  and  polished,  or  minutely  granulate,  with  or  without  an 
obscure  dorsal  sulcus.  Length,  10  mill. 

W.  Coast  Central  America  to  Mazatlan. 

E.  SULCIFERA,  Gray.     PI.  4,  fig.  51. 

An  obscure  species,  strikingly  like  the  preceding,  and  said  by 
Gray  to  come  from  Cape  of  Good  Hope.  Reeve  has  figured  for 
it  a  specimen  of  E.  lachryma,  Gray,  and  gives  Philippines  as 
locality,  whilst  the  figure  in  Sowerby's  Thesaurus  represents  an 
entirely  different  form,  said  to  occur  at  Panama. 

E.  CORRUGATA,  Hinds.     PL  4,  fig.  52. 

Minute,  white,  very  finely  granulated,  sulcus  distinct. 
Length,  4  mill.

E.  SCHMELTZIANA,  Crosse.     PL  4,  figs.  54,  55. 

Narrower  than   E.  nana;    tinged  with  ash   or  rose,  base  of 

aperture  red-tipped.     Length,  3*5  mill. 

Viti  Islands. 

Undetermined  and  Spurious  Species. 
E.  VENTRICOSA,  Gray.  Not  figured  nor  recognized. 
E.  PELLUCIDA,  Tenison-Woods.  =  Marginella. 

Reeve  has  preoccupied  the  specific  name  in  Erato. 


12  MARGINELLA. 

E.  BIMACULATA,  Tnte.  South  Australia. 

Pale  primrose-yellow  to  yellowish  white,  with  rufous-red 
around  the  extremity  of  the  anterior  canal  and  on  the  callous 
border  of  the  hinder  part  of  the  aperture.  Closely  resembles 
E.  angulifera,  Reeve;  but  differs  in  color  and  in  having  a  less 
angular  and  inflated  body-whorl.  Unfigured. 

E.  LACTEA,  Hutton  (=  Marginella  formicula,  Lam.).  New  Zealand. 
E.  PRAYENSIS,  Rochbrune.  Cape  Verd  Islands. 

Shell  triangular,  narrow  in  front,  very  thick,  with  obtuse  spire ; 
aperture  narrow ;  lip  reflected,  very  finely  denticulated  ;  col- 
umella  straight,  sinuous  in  front ;  color  greenish.  Length,  5  mill. 

The  figure  of  this  species  arrived  too  late  for  insertion  in  my 
plates. 

(r  nuf  MARGINELLA,   Lamarck. 

The  Marginellas  are  tropical  and  subtropical  in  distribution, 
a  large  proportion  of  the  species  inhabiting  the  Caribbean,  West 
African  and  Indo-Pacific  provinces.  A  species  occurs  doubt- 
fully in  the  cretaceous ;  but  in  the  eocene  formation  the  genus  is 
well  represented,  and  from  that  and  subsequent  formations  at 
least  seventy-five  fossil  species  have  been  characterized ;  from 
the  United  States,  Europe  and  Australia. 

A  number  of  monographs  and  catalogues  of  the  species  have 
been  published  in  recent  times ;  the  most  important  are  : —

JOHN  H.  REDFIELD.  Catalogue  and  synonymy  of  Marginellidae. 
American  Journal  of  Conchology,  vi,  1870.  The  species  are 
alphabetically  arranged,  with  the  synonymy  and  bibliography 
fully  indicated.  211  valid  species  are  enumerated.  This  may 
be  considered  the  first  catalogue  constructed  from  the  modern 
scientific  standpoint.  It  is  prepared  with  evident  care  and 
thoroughness,  and  is  the  result  of  many  years'  study  of  these 
interesting  shells.  The  two  monographies  which  have  since 
appeared,  were  both  written  in  ignorance  of  Mr.  Redfield's 
labors  ;  a  circumstance  which  has  greatly  impaired  their  value, 
besides  causing  some  additional  synonyms. 

JOUSSEATJME.  Monograph  ;  in  Guerin's  Revue  et  Magasin  de 
Zoologie,  1875.  269  species  are  shortly  characterized  and 
arranged  under  subgenera.  There  are  no  illustrations,  except 
of  new  species. 

H.  C.  WEINKAUFF.  In  the  Systematisches  Conchilien-Cabinet 
of  Kiister,  1878.  229  species  are  described  and  carefully 
figured ;  many  of  the  species  described  as  new  by  Dr.  Jous- 
seaume  being  relegated  to  the  synonymy. 

The  present  monograph  admits  as  valid  230  recent  species, 
some  of  which,  however,  being  unfigured,  cannot  be  satisfactorily 
determined.  So  far  as  localities  are  known,  they  have  the  fol- 
lowing distribution  : 

Caribbean,  60  species;  Mediterranean,  5 ;  West  African,  45 
South  African,  11;    Indo-Pacific,   38;    Australo-Zealandic,  34; 
Polynesian,  10;  California!!  and  Panamic,  14. 

Systematists  commenced  at  an  early  date  to  divide  up  the 
Marginellas  into  genera  and  subgenera.  Lamarck,  in  1801, 
established  Volvaria  for  a  fossil  species  of  cylindrical  form,  with 
sharp  outer  lip ;  -subsequently,  he  included  recent  species  of 
similar  form,  but  in  which  the  outer  lip  is  slightly  thickened. 
For  these,  Schumacher,  in  1817,  proposed  Hyalina.  Finally 
H.  and  A.  Adams  adopt  Volvaria  as  a  generic  term,  including 
one  recent  species,  V.pallida,  and  for  the  cylindrical  Marginellas 
with  thickened  lip  they  use  the  subgeneric  name  Volvarina, 
Hinds. 

Besides  Hyalina,  Schumacher  separated  under  the  name  of 


14  MARCH  NELL  A. 

Persicula,  those  volutiform  species  having  a  depressed  or  sunken 
spire. 

Swainson,  in  1840,  founded  a  classification  upon  slight  differ- 
ences in  the  form  of  the  species ;  extremely  unsatisfactory  because 
the  change  of  form  in  the  series  is  gradual.  His  genera  are 
Volutella,  Perxicula,  Gibber ula  and  Glabella. 

In  1844,  Hinds  divided  the  species  into  two  groups  :  Phseno- 
spira, with  elevated  spire;  Cryptospira,  with  hidden  spire.  The 
first  corresponds  with  Marginella  as  restricted  by  Schumacher, 
the  second  with  that  author's  Persicula.  H.  and  A.  Adams, 
however,  have  adopted  Cryptospira  as  a  subgenus  of  Marginella, 
with  nearly  obsolete  spire,  and  last  whorl  gibbous  posteriorly  ; 
following  it,  they  place  the  genus  Persicula,  with  depressed 
spire. 

Petit,  in  1851,  divided  Marginella  into  three  sections  : 

1 .  With  spire  more  or  less  elevated. 

2.  With  spire  depressed  or  hidden,  sometimes  umbilicated. 

3.  Columbelliform  species,  connecting  with  the  genus  Erato. 

Gray,  in  1857,  admitted  three  genera:  1.  Porcellana  (=  Mar- 
ginella) \  2.  Closia,  for  M.  sarda,  and  not  differing  essentially 
from  3,  Persicula. 

Messrs.  H.  and  A.  Adams,  in  their  "  Genera  of  Recent  Mol- 
lusca,"  admit  three  genera  : 

Marginella,  with  the  subgenera  Glabella,  Prunum,  Volutella, 
and  Cryptospira. 

Persicula,  with  the  subgenus  Gibberula. 

Volvaria,  with  the  subgenus  Volvarina. 

J.  H.  Redfield,  in  1810,  writes: — "As  to  the  numerous 
subgenera  which  have  been  proposed  for  species  of  this  genus, 
they  seem  to  me  to  be  neither  useful  nor  well  grounded.  In  a 
series  of  two  or  three  hundred  species  it  is  easy  to  select  a  few 
salient  forms  for  subgeneric  t}^pes,  but  much  less  easy  to  allot 
all  the  intermediate  species  to  their  proper  places  under  such 
types.  All  the  proposed  subgenera  are  founded  on  the  greater 
or  less  prominence  of  the  spire,  and  on  the  degree  of  the 
thickening  or  reflection  of  the  outer  lip.  A  very  slight  difference 
of  the  plane  of  development  is  aty  that  is  involved  in  the  former 
character,  and.all  students  of  the  great  family  Helicidse  under- 
stand well  how  little  generic  value  attaches  to  either  character. 


MARGINELLA.  15 

An  evidence  of  the  invalidity  of  these  distinctions  is  furnished 
in  the  inconsistencies  of  the  catalogues  in  which  they  have  been 
employed.  The  lingual  dentition,  when  fully  studied  in  a 
sufficient  number  of  species,  may  yet  guide  us  to  proper  groups  ; 
but  even  of  this  I  am  less  hopeful  than  formerly."  Mr.  Redfield 
adopts  Volvaria,  Lamarck ;  but  for  fossil  species  only. 

Jousseaume,  in  1875,  made  thirteen  generic  divisions  of  the 
Lamarckian  genus,  viz. :  Marginella<,  Egouvna,  Volvarina , 
tierrata,  Cryptospira,  Gibberula,  Granula,  Bullata-,  Closia, 
Persicula,  Volvaria,  Balanetta,  Canalispira.  Weinkauff,  in 
1878,  found  that  the  distribution  of  species  into  the  above 
groups  as  made  by  Jousseaume  was  very  unfortunate.  In  his 
own  monograph  he  has  not  attempted  any  grouping  according 
to  the  relationships  of  the  species,  but  has  presented  them 
almost  at  haphazard ;  nevertheless  in  an  Appendix  he  also 
proposes  a  classification.  He  thinks  that  the  presence  of  a  basal 
sinus  in  the  aperture-margin,  in  many  of  the  species,  affords  a 
good  character,  and  accordingly  presents  the  following  scheme :

Weinkauff,in  1880,  published  an  excellent  synonymic  catalogue 
of  tbe  genus,  in  the  Jahrbiicher  der  Deutsch.  Mai.  Gesell. ; 
arranged  as  above. 

In  addition  to  the  names  enumerated  above,  Mr.  T.  A.  Conrad 
has  proposed  three  fossil  groups,  neither  of  which  he  has  char- 
acterized. 

Porcellanella.  Type  P.  bella.  Miocene.  The  species  was 
not  described  until  1868,  six  years  after  the  name  was  cited  in 
connection  with  Porcellanella,  and  then  it  was  placed  under 
Prunum,  so  that  Conrad  abandoned  this  group. 

Micrjospira,  Conrad.  Proposed  as  a  subgenus  of  Voluh'1/.a, 
Swainson,  the  type  being  M.  aviformis,  a  miocene  species,  pre- 
senting no  generic  characters  to  distinguish  it  from  numerous 
recent  Marginellas.  (M.  ow/brraix,  Conrad.  Manual,  vol.  iv, 
t.  3,  f.  42.) 

BulliopsiS)  Conrad.     Type,  B.  cretacea,  Conr.   (PI.  3,  fig.  29). 

The  only  objection  to  Weinkauff 's  arrangement  of  the  species 
is  that  the  basal  sinus  is  more  or  less  apparent  in  the  species,  so 
that  they  form  no  sharply  defined  groups :  on  the  other  hand 
he  has  the  advantage  over  Jousseaume,  Adams,  etc.,  in  clearly 
recognizing  their  artificial  nature  and  subordinate  value,  by  using 
the  terms  division,  section  and  group  instead  of  genus  and  sub- 
genus.  The.  number  of  species  in  the  genus  is  so  large  that  it  is 
convenient  to  group  them  as  nearly  as  possible  in  accordance 
with  characters  which  appear  to  be  common  to  several  of  the 
forms,  and  for  this  purpose  I  shall  use  some  of  the  systematic 
term-  heretofore  proposed,,  assigning  to  them  no  value,  however, 
except  that  of  mere  convenience. 


MARGINKhLA.  1.7 

Typical  Group  of  M.  glabella. 

M.  GLABELLA,  Linn.     PI.  5,  figs.  57,  58. 

Polished,  reddish  or  reddish  brown,  darker  at  the  suture,  with 
irregular  flecks  of  opaque  white  ;  lip  yellowish  brown. 

Length,  1-5—2  inches. 

West  Coast  of  Africa  ;  Canary  Islands. 

Fossil  in  the  upper  tertiary  of  Italy.  One  of  the  most  beau- 
tiful species  of  Marginella ;  occasionally  the  shell  occurs 
reversed.  With  this  species  are  to  be  united  Pseudomarginella 
platypus  and  leptopus,  Carriere  (ante  p.  6). 

M.  POUCHETI,  Petit.     PI.  5,  fig.  59. 

Color  varying  from  that  of  M.  glabella  to  chestnut-brown, 
without  the  white  flecks  ;  as  in  that  species,  there  are  obscure 
indications  of  two  bands  of  darker  color.  Length,  1  inch. 

Senegal. 
Possibly  only  a  variety  of  M.  glabella. 

M.  IRRORATA,  Menke.     PL  5,  fig.  60. 

Pink  or  yellowish,  closely  marked  by  zig-zag  lines  of  minute 
white  spots.  Length,  '75-1  inch. 

West  Africa. 

This  also  is  possibly  only  a  variety  of  M.  glabella,  but  is 
smaller,  less  ventricose,  the  spire  more  drawn  out,  the  spots 
much  more  numerous  and  closer,  almost  forming  lines  of  zig-zag 
longitudinal  direction. 

M.  LABIATA,  Val.     PL  5,  tig.  61. 

Rosy  white,  sometimes  very  faintly  banded ;  lip-margin  ex- 
teriorly orange.  Length,  1-1-2  inches. 

Campeachy,  Yucatan,  Brazil. 

M.  PYRULATA,  Redfield.     PL  5,  fig.  69. 

Like  M.  labiata,  but  more  elongated,  spire  more  produced. 

Length,  I'l  inches. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Described  by  Sowerby  as  M.  obesa,  a  name  preoccupied  by 
Redfield,  who  changed  it  as  above.  The  species  has  not  been 
identified  with  any  living  Marginella,  since  it  was  described, 
and  I  agree  with  Mr.  Redfield  that  it  is  possibly  a  fossil  form. 


IX  MARUINKLLA. 

M.  GOODALLLI,  Sowb.      PI.  5,  fig.  <>:>. 

Very  ventricose,  obtusely  angulated  behind  ;  yellowish  brown. 

with  a  few  large,  rounded,  whitish  spots.     Length,  1  inch. 

Senegal. 
M.  AURANTTA,  Lam.     PI.  5,  fig.  63. 

Orange-red,  darker  at  the  sutures,  where  it  is  painted  with 
short  white  streaks ;  surface  irregularly  mottled  with  white, 
often  forming  an  interrupted  band  of  very  irregular  large  white 
spots  in  the  middle.  Length,  -8-'9  inch. 

W.  Africa,  and  Cape  Verd  Is. 

Narrower  than  M.  irrorata,  yet  in  one  specimen  before  me  the 
zig-zag  painting  of  that  species  is  partially  repeated. 

M.  PYRUM,  Ginelin.     PL  5,  figs.  70,  71. 

Body-whorl  with  an  obtuse  shoulder;  white,  irregularly  marked 
with  gray  or  pink  blotches,  which  are  longitudinally  shaded  on 
one  side  by  chestnut  or  chocolate  color ;  outer  margin  of  lip 
marked  by  a  series  of  brown  dots.  Length,  1 '25-1 '5  inches. 

Senegal. 

M.  intermedia,  Sowb.  (fig.  71),  is  probably  a  white  or  bleached 
specimen  of  this  species ;  it  is  probably  Kiener's  var.  alba  of 
nnbccul-ata — the  name  by  which  Lamarck  designated  M.pyrum. 

M.  MOSAICA,  Sowb.     PI.  5,  fig.  72. 

Shell  white,  with  faint  zig-zag  longitudinal  stripes  of  gray, 
over  which  are  about  nine  revolving  series  of  short  square  spots. 

Length,  1  inch. 

West  Africa. 

Very  closely  allied  to  M.  pyrum,  and  may  be  only  a  variety 
of  it,  differing  in  the  spots  added  to  the  painting  of  that  species. 

M.  ROSEA,  Lam.     Pit  5,  figs.  73,  74,  75. 

Smaller  than  J/.  pi/rum,  the  shoulder  obscure ;  sometimes 
similarly  painted,  but  the  spots  and  shading  smaller  and  more 
numerous;  occasionally  the  ground  color  is  grayish  pink,  upon 
which  the  spots  are  white,  with  chocolate  shndings  ;  spire  and 
shoulder  frequently  darker  in  color;  lip-margin  marked  outside 
with  a  series  of  brown  spots.  Length,  -9-1  '1  inches. 

Cape  of  Good  Hope. 

A  critical  species  ;  perhaps  only  a  small  var.  of  the  preceding. 
I  am  unable  to  to  separate  M.  piperata.  Hinds  (fig.  74),  from  it. 


GLABELLA. 


)RJ^ 


M.  albocincta,  Sowb.  (fig.  15),  described  from  a  single  specimen 
in  the  Taylor  collection,  is  also  a  synonym. 

Reeve  says  of  it :  "I  have  no  good  opinion  of  this  species. 
It  appears  to  be  a  variety  of  M.  piper  ata,  in  which  a  white  band 
is  formed  by  an  accidental  absence  of  coloring  matter."  Another 
synonym  is  probably  the  unfigured  M.  lineato-labrum,  Gaskoin. 

M.  FDLMINATA,  Kiener.     PI.  5,  fig.  78. 

Whitish,  with  brown,  zig-zag  longitudinal  painting. 

Length,  '75  inch. 

Bahia,  Brazil. 
I  have  not  seen  a  specimen  of  this  species. 

M.  PETITIT,  Duval.     PI.  5,  figs.  76,  77. 

White,  longitudinally  blotched  and  reticulated  with  orange- 
red  or  lilac,  and  numerously  speckled  with  minute  brown  dots; 
body-whorl  very  obscurely  shouldered.  Length,  1-1'25  inches. 

Senegal ;  Cape  of  Good  Hope. 

M.  Newcombii,  Reeve  (fig.  77),  appears  to  be  synonymous ;  it 
is  said  on  Cuming's  authority  to  come  from  L'Agulhas  Bank, 
Cape  of  Good  Hope. 

M.  HELMATINA,  Rang.     PI.  5,  tigs.  79,  80. 

White,  very  minutely,  irregularly  speckled  with  light  reddish 
brown,  with  two  narrow  bands  of  chestnut  spots. 

Length,  '7-1  *4  inches. 

West  Africa. 

Narrower  and  less  shouldered  than  the  preceding  species.  M. 
Gumingiana,  Petit  (fig.  80),  is  merely  a  larger,  finer  shell  of 
similar  form  and  painting. 

Section  Glabella,  Swainson. 

Yolutiform  ;  spire  more  or  less  conic,  well  developed,  usually 
longitudinally  plaited  aboilt  the  shoulder  of  the  body-whorl ; 
pillar  with  distinct  basal  plaits ;  lip  thick,  toothed  or  crenate, 
rarely  smooth  within. 

M.  BIFASCIATA,  Lam.     PI.  6,  figs.  81,  82. 

White,  more  or  less  clouded  with  light  brown  or  purple-gray, 
covered  with  small,  close  dflts,  usually  in  revolving  series. 

Length,  -9-1-25  inches. 

Gape  Blanco  to  Gambia,  W.  Africa. 


20  GLABELLA. 

The  light-colored  varieties  (fig.  82)  have  been  called  M.  are- 
naria  by  Morch. 

M.  OBTUSA,  Sowb.     PL  6,  figs.  83,  84. 

Shell  wide,  with  short  conical  spire  ;  nearly  the  entire  surface 
covered  with  longitudinal  obtuse  ribs ;  white  with  revolving 
series  of  light  chestnut  spots  and  broader  bands  of  the  same 
color  upon  the  shoulder  and  near  the  anterior  extremity ;  lip 
thickly  spotted.  Length,  '75— 1 '3  inches. 

Habitat  unknown,  probably  W.  Africa. 

The  long  ribs,  rather  a  peculiar  feature  in  the  genus,  are  not 
shown  in  Sowerby's  figure,  although  indicated  in  his  description. 
M.  mirabilis,  Barclay  (fig.  84),  is  a  finely  grown  specimen. 

M.  ADANSONI,  Kiener.     PI.  6,  figs.  85,  86. 

Light  yellowish  or  orange-brown,  with  zig-zag  longitudinal 
shadings,  and  irregular  longitudinal  narrow  dark  brown  lines. 

Length,  '9-1/25  inches. 

Senegal  and  Gambia,  West  Africa. 

M.  Bellii,  Sowb.  (fig.  86),  described  from  a  single  specimen, 
and  remaining  unique,  is  probably  a  dwarfed  individual  of  this 
species. 

M.  DAVISIANA,  Marrat. 

Shell  like  M.  Bellii,  Sowb.,  but  much  smaller,  thicker,  narrower, 
and  lighter-colored ,  longitudinal  lines  distant ;  lip  crenulated 

within,  thickened,  without,  columella  four-plicate. 

West  Africa. 
Unfigured. 

M.  NODATA,  Hinds.     PI.  6,  fig.  87. 

Yellowish  brown  or  grayish,  with  undulated,  thin,  dark  choco- 
late longitudinal  stripes,  studded  at  intervals  by  spots  forming 
revolving  series.  No  ribs.  Length,  1  inch. 

Cape  Blanco,  W.  Africa;  in  sand  at  12-15  fathoms. 

Closely  allied  to  the  following  species  and  only  distinguished 
from  it  by  the  spots. 

M.  CLERYI,  Petit.     PL  6,  fig.  88. 

Shell  smooth ;  light  yellowish  or  white,  with  faint  gray  bands, 
and  longitudinal,  undulated  chocolate  stripes.  Length,  *9  inch. 

West  Africa. 


GLABELLA.  2 1 

M.  LIMBATA,  Lam.     PL  6,  fig.  89. 

Pale  fawn-color,  with  undulating  longitudinal  pink  lines  ;  not 
ribbed ;  outer  margin  of  lip  marked  by  groups  of  transverse 

chocolate-colored  spots.     Length,  '9-1*1  inches. 

W.  Africa. 

Crosse  describes  a  variety  with  more  numerous  pink  lines,  and 
another  in  which  they  are  less  numerous  and  more  zig-zag  in 
direction. 

M.  LITURATA,  Menke. 

An  unfigured  species,  less  ovate  than  M.  limbata,  with  the 
angulated  longitudinal  lines  broken  up  into  spots. 

Length,  '75  inch. 

Australia. 
M.  ORNATA,  Redfield.     PL  6,  fig.  90. 

Smooth ;  rose  or  gray,  with  lighter  bands,  upon  which  are 
chocolate  lines  and  spots  ;  outer  margin  of  lip  also  spotted. 

W.  Africa. 

Described  by  Reeve  as  M.  rittata,  a  name  preoccupied  by 
Edwards  for  a  fossil  species,  Redfield  changed  the  name  in 
1870  for  M.  ornata ;  subsequently  Jousseaume,  ignorant  of 
Redfield 's  catalogue,  called  it  M.  serpentina. 

M.  FAB  A,  Linn.     PL  6,  fig.  91. 

Shell  grayish  buff,  with  seven  to  nine  revolving  series  of  distant 
chestnut  or  chocolate  spots  ;  shoulder  ribbed.

M.  Isevilabris,  Jousseaumfe  (unfigured),  is  probably  synony- 
mous with  this  species. 

M.  PSEUDOFABA,  Sowb.     PL  (),  fig.  92. 

Larger,  with  more  angulated  shoulder  and  more  prominent 
costse  than  M.  faba,  which  it  resembles  in  coloring ;  it  has  a 
turriculated  spire,  and  is  narrow  in  front,  resembling  a  Strombus 
in  shape.  Length,  1*5  inches.

M.  SPLENDENS,  Reeve.     PL  6,  fig.  93. 

Closely  longitudinally  ridged  ;  light  yellowish  brown,  with 
three  revolving  series  of  curved  chestnut  spots,  and  numerous 

minute  dots.     Length.  *8-*9  inch. 

West  Africa. 


22  GLABELLA. 

Petit  changed  the  name  of  this  species  to  M.  Reeveana,  because 
splendens  had  been  previously  used  by  Grateloup  for  a  fossil 
species ;  but  as  that  shell  proved  to  be  synonymous  with  M. 
eburnea,  Lam.,  a  still  earlier  name,  I  restore  splendens. 

M.  GUJLLAINI,  Petit.     PI.  6,  fig.  94. 

Longitudinally  plicate  ;  light  violaceous,  with  revolving  series 
of  square  brown  spots.  Length,  18  mill.

Cape  Blanco,  W.  Africa;  12  to  15  fathoms. 

M.  Tyermani,  Marrat,  an  unfigured  species,  appears  from  the 
description  to  be  closely  allied  to,  if  not  identical  with  M.  muxica. 

M.  DIADOCHUS,  Ad.  and  Reeve.     PL  6,  figs,  96,  97. 

Pale  ash-color,  tinged  with  orange,  with  black  revolving  lines.

Yellowish  brown,  delicately  penciled  throughout,  but  espec- 
ially in  the  middle,  with  longitudinal  brown  markings,  forming 
revolving  bands.  Length,  '8  inch. 

Cape  Blanco,-  W.  Africa  ;  12  to  15  fathoms. 

The  spire  is  more  elevated  than  in  M.  musica,  and  the  pattern 
of  painting  is  different ;  yet  the  two  are  very  closely  allied.

Yellowish  white,  tops  of  ribs  and  lip-margin  ivory-white. 

Length,  '5-'6  inch. 

So.  Australia,  Tasmania. 

M.  muscaria,  Lam.  (fig.  3),  is  somewhat  larger,  the  lip  thicker, 
the  inner  lip  callous  and  the  spire  and  back  of  the  shell  also 
callously  thickened,  so  that  the  ribs  become  obsolete  or  hidden, 
but  the  series  before  me  affords  indubitable  evidence  that  it  is 
merely  a  heavy,  older  state  of  M.  formicula.  Erato  lactea, 
Hutton,  is  identical.  • 

M.  TURBINATA,  Sowb.     PL  7,  figs.  4,  5.

M.  Volutiformis,  Reeve  (fig.  5  ,  is  a  smooth  variation  of  this 
species,  apparently. 

M.  CYPRyEoiDES,  Tenison-Woods. 

White,  smooth,  spire  hidden  by  the  produced  and  thickened 
outer  lip.  Length,  6  mill. 

Tasmania. 

Smaller  than  M.  Volutiformis,  and  destitute  of  plaits  on  the 
shoulder.  Unfigured.  I  have  not  seen  this  species,  and  there- 
fore cannot  place  it  with  confidence.  The  name  was  used  long 
since  by  Anton  for  a  shell  which  has  never  been  identified.

White,  smooth,  shining.     Length,  4  mill. 

Is.  of  Bourbon  ;  Mauritius. 

The  name  adopted  is  substituted  by  Jousseaume  for  M.  incon- 
spicua,  Nevill,  not  Sowerby.  I  add  M.  Lantzi,  Jousseaume  (fig. 
16),  which  appears  to  be  a  younger  state  of  the  same  species. 
The  form  is  so  nearly  like  that  of  M.  picturata,  Nevill  (fig.  17), 
from  Mauritius  also,  that  I  think  it  probable  it  will  prove  to  be 
an  unpainted  state' of  that  species.

M.  inflexa,  Sowb.  (fig.  11),  described  without  locality,  is  very 
probably  synonymous,  and  I  agree  with  Dr.  Weinkauff  that  M. 
unilineata,  Jousseaume,  founded  on  the  shell  figured  by  Reeve 
for  M.  fusiformis  (fig.  12),  and  which  differs  from  the  type  in 
possessing  an  inferior  revolving  brown  band,  cannot  be  distin- 
guished, except,  perhaps,  as  a  variety.

This  species  is  not  found  in  the  East  Indies  or  India,  as  stated 
by  Kiener  and  most  European  monographers.  M.  Candida,

figure  of  M.  neylwta  to  differ  specifically  from  Sowerby's  shell, 
and  calls  the  former  M.  ifjnota.  I  am  not  able  to  separate

28  PRUNUM. 

Serf  ion  Prunum  (Ma  tini).  Adams. 

Shell  smooth,  oval,  spire  slightly  prominent ;  outer  lip  thick, 
unarmed,  inner  lip  frequently  forming  a  callous  deposit;  color 
light  gray  or  yellowish  gray,  usuall}-  without  distinct  bands  or 
spots  ;  exterior  lip-margin  sometimes  orange-brown. 

M.  MARGIN  ATA,  Born.     PL  8,  figs.  44-51. 

Occasionally  very  obscurely  two-banded  ;  callous  deposit  on 
inner  lip  wide  and  thick,  so  that  viewed  from  the  back  the  shell 
appears  margined  all  round,  like  a  Cyprsea.     Length,  1  inch. 
Senegal,  West  Africa  ;  West  Indies  ;  Brazil. 

M.  marginata  is  a  West  African  species  which,  like  many 
others  from  that  locality,  reappears  in  the  West  Indies,  where 
it  has  received  the  name  of  M.  cincta,  Kiener  (fig.  46).  The  last 
has  hitherto  been  considered  distinct,  but  I  find  no  characters 
by  which  to  separate  it.  I  am  compelled  to  add  to  the  synonymy 
as  a  minor  variety,  the  West  India  M.  Storeria,  Couthouy  (fig. 
4f ),  a  name  applied  to  the  smaller  and  usually  j^ounger  specimens 
of  M.  cincta,  and  in  which  the  color  is  sometimes  darker;  also 
M.  amygdala,  Kiener  (fig.  51),  which,  coming  from  West  Africa, 
is  similarly  related  to  M.  marginata.  M.  crdttstldbrvm ,  Reeve  (fig. 
48),  M.  Saulcyana,  Petit  (fig.  49),  M.  Loroisi,  Bernard*  (fig.  50), 
are  also  synonyms.  Apparently  M.  marginata,  like  the  West 
Indian  M.  prunum,  occurs  on  the  West  Coast  of  America  also; 
at  least,  I  have  before  me  specimens  said  to  come  from  Panama 
(Haagensen)  and  San  Bias  (Duff). 

M.  CURTA,  Sowb.     PL  8,  fig.  52.

orange-color.     Length,  '85-1  inch. 

West  Coast  of  South  America. 

\  darker-colored,  thinner,  more  swollen  shell  than  the

PRUNUM.  29 

First  described  by  Sowerl\y  as  M.  crassilflbrum,  a  name  pre- 
occupied by  both  Lea  and  Conrad  for  fossil  species,  and  therefore 
changed  as  above ;  subsequently  Jousseaume,  ignorant  of 
Redfield's  work,  called  it  M.  Leai.  Dr.  Weinkauff  confounds 
M.  crassilabrum ,  Sowerby,  with  M.  crassilabrum,  Reeve — the 
latter  a  synonym  of  M.  marginata,  Born. 

M.  GIBBOSA,  Jousseaume.     PI.  8,  figs,  55,  56. 

More  gibbous  than  M.  labroxa,  the  columella  with  six  or  seven 

plications.     Length,  12  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Differs  somewhat  in  form  from  the  last  species,  and  in  having 
more  than  four  colnmellar  folds — tyet,  I  doubt  its  distinctness. 

M.  KEENII,  Marrat,     PI.  8,  fig.  5T.

Larger  than  M.  Olivaeformis^  the  aperture  conspicuously 
channeled  behind,  the  bands  of  color  narrower  and  more 
regular.  Appears  to  connect  the  foregoing  W.  African  group 
with  that  of  M.  prunum,  of  the  West  Indies.  M.  Honduf&ifensis, 
Reeve  (fig.  68),  is  a  juvenile  shell.

and  M.  Martini,  Petit  ifig.  61),  from  Rio  Janeiro.  The  original 
figure  of  M.  sapotilla,  which  I  have  copied,  represents  a  young 
shell ;  similar  dark-colored  specimens'  of  this  age  occur  among 


30  CRYPTOSPIRA. 

West  Indian  shells ;  the  full-grown  shells  from  Panama  being 
precisely  like  the  West  Indian  specimens  figured  (figs.  58-59). 

Section  Cryptospira,  Hinds. 

Shell  swollen,  smooth,  spire  very  short,  nearly  concealed  ; 
columella  five-  or  six-plaited ;  outer  lip  thickened,  smooth  within ; 
color  gray  or  yellowish  olivaceous,  usually  without  bands, 
sometimes  interruptedly  banded  or  strigate.  Nearly  related 
to  Priinum,  but  differs  in  having  a  shorter  spire,  less  callous 
deposit  and  more  columellar  teeth  or  plaits. 

M.  QUINQUEPLICATA,  Lain.     PI.  9,  figs.  63-66. 

Light  olivaceous  or  slate-color ;  lip  and  interior  white  or

Bay  of  Bengal,  Malacca,  Sumatra. 
Var.  HAINESII,  Petit  (fig.  66). 

Shell  callously  thickened  throughout. 

M.  encaustica,  Reeve  (fig.  65),  is  considered  by  Weinkauff  a 
very  young  shell  of  M.  quinqueplicata  ;  I  think  this  veiy 'probable, 
the  additional  columellar  folds,  and  the  numerous  lip-den  tic  ula- 
tions  being  probably  evanescent  juvenile  characters.  I  am 
helped  to  this  conclusion  by  the  fact  that  other  juvenile  forms 
exhibit  similar  characters. 

M.  ELEGANS,  Gmelin.     PL  9,  figs.  67-10,  82  ;  PI.  2,  fig.  8.

and  M.  Marchi  of  Jousseaume. 

M.  RUBENS,  Martens.     PL  13,  fig.  39. 

Shell  ovate,  corneous,  margin  of  the  lip  pallid  orange ;  colu- 
mellar plications  three,  parietal  plications  two. 

Length,  19  mill. 

E.  Coast  of  Patagonia,  60  fathoms. 
Closely  allied  to  M.  glauca,  Jousseaume.  in  form,  but  differs  in 


CRYPTOSPIRA.  31 

tint  and  in  having  a  thickened  lip-margin,  and  in  the   second 
plication  being  more  unlike  the  lower  one. 

M.  TRICINCTA,  Hinds.     PL  9,  figs.  71,  72. 

Ash-color,  very  obscurely  triple-banded  with  chestnut. 

Length,  -9  inch. 

Straits  of  Macassar,  coarse  sand,  at  11  fathoms  (Belcher). 

The  bands  are  usually  more  visible  within  the  aperture,  being 
almost  or  entirely  obscured  by  the  gray  callous  coating.  M.  im- 
mersa,  Reeve  (fig.  72),  is  a  synonym. 

M.  TRAILLTI,  Reeve.     PI.  9,  fig.  73. 

Yellowish  white,  lip  thickly  reflected,  eolumella  five-plaited. 

Length,  *55  inch. 

Malacca. 

Dr.  Weinkauff  thinks  this  is  probably  the  young  of  M.  Loeb- 
beckeana  (=  elegans),  but  it  seems  to  be  much  more  cylindrical 
than  that  species.  It  is  in  the  Cumingian  collection. 

M.  SEXPLICATA,  D  tinker.     PI.  9,  fig.  74. 

Grayish,  inconspicuously  longitudinally  strigate,  eolumella 
six-plaited.  Length,  -5  inch. 

Japan. 

Described  by  Sowb.  in  1870  as  M.  obtusa,  a  specific  name  pre- 
occupied by  himself  in  1846,  and  therefore  changed  to  xexpli- 
cata  by  D  linker  in  1871,  and  to  grisea  by  Jousseaume  in  1875. 

M.  ODORICYI,  Bernardi.     PL  9,  fig.  75. 

White,  with  broad  yellow  bands,  which  are  longitudinally 
strigate  with  orange-brown  ;  interior  of  aperture  orange. 

Length,  18  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Described  from  a  single  specimen  in  a  worn  condition. 

M.  BERNARDII,  Largill.     PL  9,  fig.  76. 

Fulvous  ash,  longitudinally  streaked  with  grayish  brown ; 
eolumella  six-plaited.  Length,  20  mill.

Length,  10  mill. 

N.  S.  Walts,  Australia. 


32  CKYPTOSPIKA. 

The  upper  fold  of  the  columella  is  minute,  sometimes  not 
present,  and  this  shell,  as  well  as  the  next,  are  referred  to  the 
present  section  with  some  doubt. 

M.  PR^ECALLOSA,  Higgins. 

An  unfigured  species,  yellowish  white,  linearly  strigate,  and 
with  two  distant  bands ;  colnmella  five-plaited,  lip  callously 
reflected,  flexuously  plicate  within.  Length,  25  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 
M.  OBLONGA,  Swainson.     PL  9,  figs.  78-80. 

Flesh-color,  obscurely  broadly  banded  with  a  darker  tint,  and 
bearing  two  chestnut  spots  on  the  outer  lip  ;  sometimes  slightly 

necked  with  white.     Length,  '8-1  inch. 

Bahamas  and  Yucatan. 

Is  more  attenuated  than  the  next  species,  which  it  neverthe- 
less so  closely  resembles  in  its  occasional  flecked  coloration  and 
in  having  the  two  spots  on  the  lip,  as  to  suggest  community  of 
origin.  Mr.  Red  field  has  proposed  the  names  M.  amabilis  (fig. 
79),  and  M.  rostrata  (fig.  8(P,  for  what  appear  to  me  to  be  only 
slight  variations  of  this  species  :  the  latter  has  been  indepen- 
dently described  by  Jousseaume  as  M.  canella. 

M.  GUTTATA,  Dillwyn.     PL  9,  fig.  81. 

Flesh-colored,  obscurel}*  broadly  banded  with  a  darker  tint 
over  which  are  irregular  snow-white  flecks  ;  outer  lip  and  base 
bearing  from  two  to  five  brown  spots  or  short  stripes. 

Length,  -65-'9  inch. 

West  Indies,  Florida,  Beaufort,  N.  Carolina. 

See  remarks  on  preceding  species. 

M.  NIVOSA,  Hinds.     PL  10,  figs.  84,  85. 

Pale  flesh-color,  obsoletely  banded,  with  narrow  longitudinal 
strigations  and  fleckings  of  white  ;  lip  without  spots. 

Length,  *5-'75  inch. 

West  Indies. 

With  this  must  be  united  M.  pruinosa,  Hinds  (fig.  85),  and 
M.  nivea,  C.  B.  Adams — the  latter  an  unfigured  species,  founded 
on  small  specimens.  M.  punctidata,  Petit,  is  an  unfigured  species 
from  Senegal,  which  has  not  been  identified  heretofore ;  the 
description  agrees  well  enough  with  nivosa.  If  it  could  be  posi- 
tively identified  it  would  have  priority  over  nivosa. 


CRYPT08PIRA.  33 

M.  OLIV^EFORMIS,  Kieuer.     PI.  5,  figs.  64-66. 

Rather  narrow,  flesh-color,  obscurely  two-  or  three-banded,  and 
occasionally  longitudinally  mottled  with  a  darker  tint. 

Length,  *6  inch. 

Senegal. 

I  agree  with  Weinkauff  that  M.  laeta,  Jousseaume  (fig.  65),  is 
scarcely  more  than  a  fine,  small  example  of  this  species.  M. 
Hindsiana,  Petit  (fig.  66),  proposed  instead  of*M.  constricta, 
Hinds,  a  name  preoccupied  by  Conrad  for  a  fossil  species,  is 
probably  a  synonym. 

M.  CARNEA,  Storer.     PL  10,  fig.  86. 

Orange-red,  with  a  median  narrow  white  band  ;  lip  and  callus 
white.  Length,  'T5  inch. 

West  Indies,  Florida,  Beaufort,  N.  Carolina. 

This  very  distinct  species  has  been  misunderstood  by  the 
European  monographers,  who  have  all  confounded  it  with  forms 
of  M.  oblonga,  Swains. 

M.  ROSCIDA,  Redfield.     PI.  10,  fig.  88. 

Yellowish  flesh-color,  flecked  with  white,  tending  to  become 
longitudinally  white-streaked  below  the  suture ;  lip  marked  \)y 
two  distant  chestnut  spots,  with  usually  a  third  at  its  junction 

with  the  spire.     Length,  -6  inch. 

North  and  South  Carolina. 

Is  very  nearly  related  to  the  next  species,  but  the  spire  is 
more  developed,  the  shoulder  more  distinctly  angular,  and  has 
the  white  spots  of  which  M.  apicina  is  destitute.  It  is  a  critical 
species  and  may  prove  to  be  only  a  variety  of  M.  apicina. 

M.  APICINA,  Menke.     PL  10,  figs.  89,  90. 

Pure  white,  bluish,  purple,  pinkish  or  yellowish  white,  or 
orange-yellow,  faintly  darker  banded,  with  two,  three  or  four 
chestnut  spots  on  the  margin  of  the  outer  lip — sometimes  obso- 
lete. Length,  -4--6  inch. 

West  Indies,  Florida,  Bahamas. 

The  pure  white  variety  has  been  described  by  Jousseaume  as 
M.  virginea. 

M.  PELLUCIDA,  Pfeiffer.     PL  10,  fig.  91. 

Thin,  diaphanous,   orange-brown,  sometimes  faintly    banded 


34  (11YPTOSPIRA. 

with   a  darker  tint ;    lip   narrowly    margined    externally    with 
orange-red.     Length,  '5  inch. 

West  Indies,  Bahamas. 

Has  the  form  of  M.  apicina,  but  differs  remarkably  in  its 
diaphanous  texture. 

M.  NITIDA,  Hinds.     PI.  10,  figs.  92,  93. 

Thin,  pellucid,  amber-color ;  more  cylindrical  than  M.pellucida, 
with  the  spire  more  produced.  Length,  *45  inch. 

Tampa  Bay,  Fla. 

M.  nitida  was  described  without  locality,  but  both  description 
and  figure  so  entirely  correspond  with  717.  succinea,  Conrad  (fig. 
93),  that  I  cannot  doubt  their  identity.  M.  succinea  is  figured 
from  the  author's  type. 

M.  WALLACEI,  Jousseaume.     PI.  10,  figs.  94,  95. 

Orange-brown  with  a  central  white  zone  ;  columella  obliquely 
four-plaited ;  lip  white,  thickened  and  margined,  minutely  arid 
irregularly  dentate  within.  Length,  12  mill. 

Locality  not  certain,  probably  West  Indies. 

The  minute  lip-denticulations,  if  permanent,  separate  this 
species  widely  from  its  nearest  allies  in  form  and  coloring ; 
otherwise  it  is  very  like  a  small  M.  carnea. 

M.  CANTHARUS,  Reeve.     PI.  10,  fig.  96. 

Transparent  horny,  rather  solid,  obscurely  banded ;  lip  thick- 
ened, opaque  white.  Length,  11  mill.

much  thickened  externally,  not  thickened  within ;  columella 
obliquely  four-plaited.  Length,  8  mill. 

Dredged  off  Florida  (Pourtales). 

Of  same  general  type  as  M.  paxillus,  but  proportionally  much 
narrower,  with  the  spire  exserted. 

M.  ANNULATA,  Reeve.     PL  10,  fig.  100. 

Rather  solid,  yellowish  white,  brown-margined  below  the 
sutures;  body-whorl  gibbously  angled  above;  lip  thickened, 
flexuous,  columella  four-plaited.  Length,  8  mill.

Pale  buflf,  sometimes  very  indistinctly  banded  with  a  darker 
tint ;  reddish  brown  within  the  aperture. 

Length,  2'5-3'5  inches. 

Bahia,  Brazil. 

.  This  is  the  largest  species  of  the  genus  and  a  veritable  giant 
among   Marginellas.     A   pale   lemon-colored  variet^y   has    been 

called  M.  Cuvieri,  Desh.  (fig.  4).

Described  by  Mr.  Pease  as  M.  elongata,  a  name  preoccupied  by 
Bellardi  for  a  fossil  species. 

Section  Pers'cula,  Schumacher. 

Shell  bulliforin,  spire  depressed  or  sunken ;  usually  banded 
or  spotted ;  aperture  long,  the  outer  lip  generally  denticulated 
within,  with  a  posterior  channel,  inner  lip  with  a  callosity 
posteriorly,  four  plaits  anteriorly,  with  smaller  ones  behind 
them,  becoming  obsolete.

lines.  Length,  *7-*9  inch.  , 

W.  Africa,  Canaries,  Cape  Verd  Is. 

In  some  specimens  before  me  the  revolving  lines  have  broken 
up  into  spots ;  so  that,  distant  as  the  two  patterns  of  painting 
normally  appear,  this  and  the  preceding  may  prove  to  be 
varieties  of  a  single  species.

M.  OBESA,  Redfield.     PL  11,  figs.  18,  19. 

Differs  from  M.  inter  rupte-li  ne  ata,  in  being  usually  larger, 
more  ventricose,  the  revolving  lines  sometimes  merging  into 
spots,  and  in  the  outer  margin  of  the  lip  possessing  three  spots; 
yet  I  think  it  will  prove  to  be  only  a  variety  of  that  species.

M.  FRUMENTUM,  Sowb.     PL  11,  fig.  27. 

Form  and  pattern  of  coloring  very  like  M.  phrygia.  but  the 
shell  is  slightly  more  cylindrical,  and  the  zig-zags  are  usually 
much  closer ;  the  heavier  coloring  forming  the  bands,  curves  in 
an  opposite  direction.  Length,  '25-'35  inch.

milk-white  spots.  Length,  '15-'25  inch. 

West  Indies,  W.  Coast  of  W.  America. 

M.  alba,  C.  B.  Adams,  is  probably  founded  on  a  worn  specimen 
of  this  species.  Mr.  W.  H.  Ball  records  the  occurrence  of  M. 
catenata  on  the  West  Coast  of  America  at  Panama,  Cape  St. 
Lucas,  and  also  at  the  Galapagos  Is.  There  are  six  to  ten  of  the 
revolving  chains  of  spots,  and  frequently  the  chestnut-colored 
ones  are  not  apparent,  so  that  the  shell  is  thin,  whitish,  trans- 
lucent, with  milk-white  spots.

Length,  -15--25  inch. 

West  Indies  (Gaskoin);  Bahamas  (Redfield). 

Has  the  form  of  M.  catenata,  and  has  frequently  been  con- 
founded with  it.  May  be  distinguished  by  the  faint  bands  and 
fewer  series  of  revolving  spots. 

M.  SAG1TTATA,  Hillds.       PI.   11,  fig.  31.

the  spire  marked  with  a  circle  of  radiating  brown  dots,  with  an 
obscure  white  band  outside  of  them ;  a  dark  brown  patch  on 
the  outer  edge  of  the  outer  lip.  Length,  a3  inch.

Senegal;  Cape  Verd  Is. 

Specimens  before  me,  agreeing  otherwise  with  the  figures  of 
this  species,  have  the  spire  apparent,  although  short.  There 
are  four  columellar  folds,  and  in  addition  a  number  of  trans- 
verse denticulations  extending  nearly  the  entire  length  of  the 
inner  lip.  Remarking  the  presence  of  these,  not  mentioned  in 
Lamarck's  description,  Jousseaume  adopts  Adanson's  name  for 
the  species  and  calls  it  M.  xtipon,  believing  it  to  differ  from  M. 
oryza.

Shell  suboval ;  spire  slightly  prominent ;  outer  lip  posteriorly

additional  denticulations.  Length,  10-12  mill. 

West  Africa;  Red  Sea;  I.  of  Socotra. 

The  African  tribes  form  necklaces  of  these  shells.  For  the 
purpose  of  stringing  them  a  hole  is  made  through  the  upper 
part  of  the  body-whorl,  apparently  by  rubbing.  M.  Petit,  finding 
the  figures  of  this  species  in  Sowerby's  Thesaurus  to  have  a  spire 
more  projecting  than  is  warranted  by  Linnaeus'  description,  and 
the  locality  of  the  latter  being  given  as  China,  separates  Sowerby's 
shells  as  M.  Sowerbyana  ;  uo  subsequent  authors  have  recognized

this  distinction.  A  large  proportion  of  the  localities  given  by 
Linnaeus  are  erroneous.  I  cannot  separate  M.  Terveriana,  Petit

Mediterranean  ;  Portugal ;  Canary  Isles  ;  Gulf  of  Suez. 
Is  a  common  fossil  in  the  Upper  and  Middle  Tertiary  of 
Southern  Europe.  Usually  the  outer  lip  is  smooth,  but  occa- 
sionally it  is  very  slightly,  minutely  crenulated.  M.  Savignyi, 
Issel  (fig.  48),  from  Suez,  presents  characters  so  similar  in 
description  and  figure,  that  I  cannot  separate  it. 

M.  CARNEOLA,  Petit.     PI.  11,  fig.  49. 

Pallid  carneous,  with  two  darker  bands.     Length,  8'5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Petit  mentions  two  bands  in  his  description,  yet  his  figure 
only  shows  a  single  broad  central  one.  The  species  has  not  been 
fully  identified ;  some  authors  suspect  that  it  is  equivalent  to 
and  has  priority  over  M.  pyrulum,  Reeve,  the  next  species ; 
whilst  the  figure,  if  correct  in  representing  only  one  band,  is 
more  like  M.  oryza,  Lam.

St.  Thomas,  W.  I.  (Reeve). 

See  remarks  under  preceding  species.  The  difference  between 
this  species  and  those  varieties  of  M.  oryza  with  apparent  spire, 
is  very  slight ;  both  have  the  dark  colored  spire.  They  will 
possibty  prove  identical.

The  spire  is  shorter  than  in  M.  in  fan  a,  Reeve,  and  the  outline 
more  convex  below.  M.  Crossei,  Velain  (fig.  54),  from  the 
vicinity  of  the  Islands  of  St.  Paul  and  Amsterdam,  does  not 
appear  to  differ  except  in  size,  being  1'5  mill. ;  it  is  perhaps  not

44  GIBBERUL'A. 

M.  Lavalleana,  d'Orb  (fig.  61),  from  the  West  Indies  and 
Florida,  does  not  appear  to  differ.  The  lip  is  described  as 
smooth,  and  appears  to  be  so  in  some  specimens,  but  in  others, 
in  a  favorable  light  and  with  a  good  glass,  the  denticulations  or 
ridges  can  be  plainly  seen.  M.  minima,  Guilding  (fig.  62),  is 
also  a  synonym,  although  described  as  having  but  three  columellar 
plaits.  I  place  here  M.  Sueziensis,  Issel  (fig.  63),  from  the  Red 
Sea. 

M.  LACHRIMULA,  Gould. 

An    unfigured,    white,    minute    species,   with    scarcely    any 
apparent   spire,  and   lip   surpassing   it    posteriorly;   columella 
tour-plaited;  lip  slightly  crenulate  within.     Length,  1*5  mill. 
Dredged  in  400  fms.  off  the  coast  of  Georgia. 

Said  to  be  distinguished  from  the  allied  West  Indian  species 
by  its  transparency  and  ventricose  form.

Fandwfch  Is.  (Pease);   Viti  Is.  (Garrett). 

Pease's  species  was  not  illustrated  by  him,  and  the  figure  of 
it  in  Reeve's  Iconica  is  very  bad.  He  does  not  mention  the 
interior  lirae  or  denticulations,  which  are  not  visible  on  all  the 
specimens.  Having  types  received  from  Pease  and  also  types 
of  Mr.  Garrett's  M.  pygmsea,  subsequently  published,  I  do  not 
hesitate  to  declare  them  identical. 

M.  DEBILIS,  Pease. 

Shell  subpyriform,  longitudinally  striated,  white;  aperture 
narrow,  contracted  ;  apex  obtuse  ;  inner  lip  three-plaited,  outer 

lip  denticulated  within. 

Sandwich  Islands. 

Mr.  Redfield  and  Dr.  Weinkauff  have  made  this  a  synonym  of 
M.  Australis,  Hinds  ;  although  the  description  differs  essentially. 
Pease  originally  published  it  as  M.  oryza,  but  that  name  being 
preoccupied,  he  changed  it  to  M.  debilis,  and  at  .the  same  time 
pointed  out  its  distinctive  characters  from  Australia.  Dr. 
Jousseaume,  ignorant  of  the  change  of  name  made  by  Pease, 
has  proposed  for  it  M.  aquseg-utfa.  It  has  not  been  figured,  and 
I  have  no  specimens.

Jousseaume  changed  the  name  to  M.  cinerea,  because  Lea 
had  previously  used  semen  for  a  fossil  species  ;  the  latter,  how- 
ever, is  said  to  be  the  young  of  M.  larvata,  Conrad.  Mr.

False  Bay,  Cape  of  Good  Hope;  from  Gorgonise  in  20  fathoms. 

The  dentition  and  shell  are  like  Marginella;  but  the  animal, 
which  has  short,  flattened,  triangular,  horizontal  tentacles,  with 
minute  dark  reddish  eyes,  behind  their  bases,  differed  sufficiently 
to  induce  Stimpson,  who  discovered  the  species,  to  establish  for 
it  a  new  family  Cystiscidre,  and  to  call  it  Cystiscus  Capensis. 
Mr.  Redfield,  very  properly,  I  think,  remanded  the  species  to 
Marginella,  and  the  specific  name  being  preoccupied  in  that 
genus,  called  it  M.  cystiscus.  The  foot  of  the  animal  is  lemon- 
yellow.

slightly  thickened  without,  or  with  only  a  slight  marginal  varix. 

A  single  recent  species,  M.  pallida,  is  very  similar  to  the  fossil

Dr.  Weinkauff  supposes  this  to  be  possibly  a  young  shell  of 
M.-pallida,  but  the  lip  is  too  much  thickened  ;  I  am  very  doubtful 
whether  either  this  or  M.  lucida  is  distinct  from  M.  lactea, 
Kiener.

Cape  of  Good  Hope;  Madagascar;  West  Indies. 

In  M.  zonata  (fig.  92),  the  coloring  nearly  covers  the  body- 
whorl  in  a  single  band ;  and  with  this  variety  corresponds  M. 
Dunkeri,  Krauss.  In  M.  bilineata,  Krauss  (figs.  93,  94),  the 
shell  is  white,  bilineated  with  chestnut.  Sometimes  the  broad 
band  is  present,  with  the  deeper  colored  lineations  defining  its 
margins,  and  in  one  specimen  before  me  the  band  is  visible  on  a 
portion  of  the  whorl  only,  but  the  lineations  are  present.

M.affinis,  Reeve  (fig.  99),  appears  to  be  this  species,  Reeve 
having  figured  the  next  species  for  lactea.  M.  abbreviata,  C.  B. 
Adams,  is  also  probably  a  synonym. 

M.  SUBTRIPLICATA,  Orb.     PL  13,  fig.  100.

West  Indies. 
Var.  BEYERLEANA,  Bernardi  (figs.  3,  8). 

White  or  rosy-white,  with  the  bands  of  rose-color  ;  it  is  clearly 
connected  by  intermediate  shades  with  the  type.  Some  of  these 
intermediate  states  are  M.  livida,  Reeve  (fig.  4),  M.  ejfulgens, 
Reeve,  and  M.  gu  Mulct,  Reeve  (fig.  5  . 

Var.  AVENELLA,  Dall. 

Shell  exceedingly  variable  in  proportions  ;  spire  short,  obtuse, 
sometimes  almost  suppressed ;  color  light  yellow  or  yellowish 
white,  with  a  faint  white  line  bordering  the  suture ;  general 
outline  elongated  ovate ;  aperture  long,  narrow  behind  (where 
the  outer  lip  is  thickened  and  a  little  inflected  \  wider  in  front 
(where  it  is  thin),  and  a  little  flaring  at  its  (widest)  anterior 
termination;  columelia  with  four  subequal  folds,  all  rather 
oblique;  outer  lip  simple,  thickened  behind,  where  the  line  of 
callus  may  extend  to  the  suture  or  fall  considerably  short  of  it ; 
slightly  concave  in  the  middle,  where  its  edge  is  even  turned  in 
a  little ;  scarcely,  if  at  all,  produced  forward  ;  whorls  not  at  all 
or  very  slightly  shouldered,  three  or  four  in  number.  In  the 
form  with  the  short  rounded  spire,  the  outer  lip  is  straight,  not 
inflected,  and  more  evenly  thickened  along  its  whole  length  ;  the 
anterior  end  of  the  aperture  has  the  outer  lip  obliquely  cut  off, 
and  not  flaring.  The  whole  form  is  more  evenly  ovate-cylindrical. 
The  measurements  of  the  long-  and  short-spired  specimens  are 
respectively  as  follows: — Lon.  of  shell,  12-0  and  9*5;  of  whorl, 
10'25  and  9'0  ;  of  aperture,  9'5  and  8*25.  Max.  lat.  of  shell,  5'0

Notwithstanding  the  differences  above  indicated  by  extreme 
specimens,  the  shells  appear  to  grade  into  one  another  and  to 
approach  very  closely  the  old  M.  avena  of  Valenciennes,  of 
which  indeed  this  may  be  but  an  abyssal  race ;  but  of  the  latter 
I  have  no  typical  specimens,  and  it  is  described  as  having  color- 
bands.  In  view  of  the  great  number  of  closely  allied  forms  of 
this  group,  without  such  specimens  it  would  be  rash  to  consolidate. 

Another  form  with  the  spire  almost  lost  (from  Yucatan  Strait, 
640  fms.,  and  Station  2,  805  fms.),  of  a  yellowish  white  tinge, 
strongly  resembles  d'Orbigny's  M.  triplicala,  which  I  take  to 
have  been  founded  on  an  abnormal  specimen,  and  might  be 
thought  a  pale  race  of  Volvarina  varia,  but  I  am  not  at  all  sure 
that  it  is  not  an  extreme  form  of  the  preceding. 

I  quote  Mr.  Ball's  description  of  the  above  varieties  in  full,  as 
they  are  unfigured,  and  are  deep-sea  forms;  they  are  doubtless 
varieties  only,  as  suspected  by  Mr.  Dall. 

M.  PATAGONICA,  Martens.     PI.  13,  fig.  40. 

White,  with  two  wide  light  rosy  bands ;  columella  with  four 
plications,  the  lower  the  strongest.  Length,  18  mill.

M.  PHILIPPINARUM,  Redfield.     PI.  13,  tig.  6;  PI.  2,  fig.  9. 

Yellowish  white,  with  three  rather  broad  darker  bands ; 
columella  four-plaited.  Length,  -5-'65  inch.

M.  EXILIS,  Gmelin.     PL  13,  tigs.  7,9,  10,11,96,97;  PI.  12,  fig.  59. 

Yellowish  white,  without  bands,  or  three-banded  with  light 
chestnut.  Length,  10  mill. 

W.  Africa,  Mogadore  to  Senegal;  West  Indies. 

A  more  ventricose,  shorter  species  than  some  of  those  which 
precede  it.  It  is  the  M.  triticea  of  Lamarck  (fig.  7),  M.  monilis 
of  Wood,  not  Linn.  M.  epigrus,  Reeve  (fig.  9),  is  supposed  by 
Mr.  Redfield  to  be  the  young  of  this  species.  M.  tribalteata, 
Reeve  (fig.  11),  and  M.fusca,  Sowb,  (figs.  96,  97)— a  West  Indian 
shell,  are  synonyms.  I  am  inclined  to  place  here,  as  a  not  fully 
grown  shell,  M.  Benguelensis,  Jouss.  (PI.  12,  fig.  59  ;  PI.  13,  fig. 
10),  from  Benguela.  M.  Jousseaumi,  Rochbrune,  from  the  Cape 
Verd  Islands,  is  also  a  synonym.

M.  MEDIOCTNCTA,E.  A.  Smith.     PL  13,  figs.  12,  13. 

White,  with  two  broad  light  chestnut  bands ;  columella  four- 
plaited.  Length,  6 '5  mill. 

Cape  Verd  Is. 

The  coloring  is  above  and  below  the  middle,  covering  the 
body-whorl  except  a  central  white  zone.  M.  Bouvieri,Jousse&ume 
(fig.  13),  is  a  synonym. 

M.  RUBELLA,  C.  B.  Adams.     PL  13,  figs.  14,  15.

M.  navicella,  Reeve  (fig.  15),  is  a  synonym. 

M.  T^NTATA,  Sowb.     PL  13,  figs.  16,  17. 

Whitish  or  3rellowish  white,  with  sutural,  median  and  basal 
bands  of  yellowish  brown,  and  a  narrower  band  of  the  same 
color  between  the  last  two ;  sometimes  the  coloring  is  roseate, 
and  occasionally  a  pair  of  proximate  narrow  lines  take  the 
place  of  a  broad  band.  Length,  12-15  mill. 

Cape  Verd  Is  ;  West  Indies. 

Very  like  M.  avena,  YaL,  and  may  be  only  a  variety  of  that 
species  ;  its  distinctive  characters  being  a  shorter  spire  and  the 
additional  narrow  band.  M.  Verdensis,  E.  A.  Smith  (fig. '17  ,  is 
identical  with  this  species. 

M.  CESSACI,  Rochbrune. 

Elliptical,  shining,  thick ;  spire  short,  conical,  obtuse ;  aperture 
long  and  narrow,  a  little  dilated  above ;  lip  thick ;  columella 
four-plaited  ;  wine-red  with  a  livid  band  at  the  top  of  the  whorl. 

Length,  11  mill.

Seerns  to  be  very  closely  allied  to  M.  tseniala.  The  work 
containing  the  figure  of  this  species,  arrived  too  late  to  have  it 
illustrated  in  the  Manual. 

M.  OBSCURA,  Reeve.     PL  13,  fig.  22.

banded.  Length,  10  mill. 

Mediterranean  Sea. 
M.   Galamelij  Jousseaume  (fig.  18),  from  Algiers,  is  made  a 

synonym  by  Dr.  Weinkauff,  who  has  quoted  it  as  an  example  of 
his  var.  bizonata.  The  banding,  however,  is  more  or  less  visible 
on  all  specimens,  and  his  variety  is  not  entitled  to  be  so  con- 
sidered. M.  rufescens*,  Reeve  vfig.  19  ,  is  another  probable 
synonym.  M.  Lienardi,  Jousseaume,  said  to  come  from  Mauri- 
tius, and  Isle  of  Bourbon,  is  founded  on  two  of  Sowerby's 
figures  of  this  species. 

M.INFANS,  Reeve.     PL  13,  fig.  23. 

Transparent  white,  mostty  encircled  by  two  faint  brown  lines; 

columella  four-plaited.     Length,  5  mill. 

Singapore;  Tasmania. 

Erato  pellucida,  Tenison-Woods,  from  the  latter  locality,  is  an 
unfigured  species,  but  the  description  as  well  as  specimens  before 
me  agree  very  well  with  M.  infant*. 

M.  ATTENUATA,  Reeve.     PL  13,  fig.  24. 

Yellowish  white,  body-whorl  slightly  attenuated  below,  lip 
nexuous,  columella  obliquely  four-plaited.  Length,  8  mill. 

Sydney,  New  South  Wales. 

This  is  the  M.  translucida  of  Weinkauff  and  of  some  Austra- 
lian collectors ;  the  true  translucida  is  a  very  different  species.

Kingsmill  Is.,  Polynesia. 

This  species  has  been  unfortunate  in  its  names  :  it  was  first 
described  by  Pease  as  M.  cylindrica.  but  as  that  name  was  preoc- 


•  >4  VOLVAR1A. 

cupied  by  Sowerby,  Reeve  changed  it  as  above,  and  Pease  subse- 
quently, unaware  that  Reeve  had  already  proposed  a  substitute, 
called  it  M.  polita — a  name  which  was  already  used  by  Carpenter. 

M.  PAUMOTENSIS,  Pease.     PI.  13,  fig.  28. 

White,  with  three  very  faint  yellowish  bands  ;  columella  three- 
plaited.  Length,  5  mill. 

Paumotus  Is. 
M.  CALEDONICA,  Jousseaume.     PI.  13,  fig.  31. 

White,  very  obscurely  bifasciate  with  yellowish  brown ;  col- 
umella three-plaited.  Length,  7  mill. 

New  Caledonia. 

I  have  not  seen  a  specimen  of  this  shell,  but  the  figure  is  so 
close  to  M.  Paumotensis,  Pease,  that  I  suspect  it  will  prove  to 
be  synonymous  with  that  species. 

M.  CORUSCA,  Reeve.     PI.  13,  fig.  29. 

Transparent,  horny,  livid,  very  faintly  two-banded  with  chest-

This,  like  the  last,  may  be  identified  with  several  different 
species.

It  is  difficult  to  say  wherein  M.  Paumotenxis,  Pease,  differs 
from  this  species. 

M.  FASCFATA,  Sowb.     PL  13,  fig  34. 

Yellowish  white,  banded  with  light  brown,  edged  with  darker 
brown,  forming  spots  on  the  margin  of  the  lip ;  columella  strongly 
four-plaited.  Length,  f  mill. 

Locality  unknown. 


VOL V ART  A.  55 

Jousseaume  changed  the  name  to  M.  rubrofasciata,  on  account 
of  Persicula  fasciata,  Schum.,  which  is  a  synonym  of  M.  per- 
sicula,  Linn.  I  have  no  authentic  specimen  of  this  species  ;  it 
needs  to  be  compared  with  M.  mastelina,  Angas. 

M.  BAYLEI,  Jousseaume.     PI.  13,  fig.  35.

White,  three-banded  with  chestnut.     Length,  6*5  mill. 

West  Indies. 

Prof.  Adams  did  not  illustrate  his  species,  but  the  description 
so  completely  agrees  with  Reeve's  figure  of  M.  bibalteata,  that  I 
think  Mr.  Redfield  is  correct  in  making  the  latter  a  synonym. 

M.  ALBOLINEATA,  d'Orb.     PL  13,  fig.  37. 

White,  more  or  less  broadly  three-banded  with  bright  chest- 
nut ;  sometimes  the  bands  are  so  broad  that  the  shell  appears 
to  be  chestnut-colored  with  two  white  bands.  Length,  6-t  mill. 

West  Indies,  Lower  California. 

M.  Delessertiana,  Recluz,  an  unfigured  species,  said  to  come 
from  Mauritius,  resembles  this  species,  but  cannot  be  positively 
identified  with  it.  The  shell  which  Weinknuff  figures  for  M. 
Dele  user  tiana,  and  which  comes  from  Guadeloupe,  W.  I.,  is  a 
M.  albolineata.  This  is  the  M.  varia,  Sowerby,  of  Carpenter  and 
Cali fora ian  conchologists.  Carpenter  says  that  it  is  not  to  be 
distinguished  from  some  West  Indian  specimens  of  M.  varia,  but 
the  fact  is  that  M.varia  is  made  up  of  two  veiy  distinct  forms, 
namely  M.  albolineata,  Orb.,  and  M.  avena,  Val. — the  latter  has 
not  been  found  on  the  West  Coast  of  America.

Shell  short,  stout,  white  or  yellowish  white,  polished,  five- 
whorled ;  suture  marked  under  the  glaze  with  a  darker  trans- 
lucent line ;  apex  obtuse ;  in  adults  the  nucleus  is  obscured  by 
the  glaze,  in  young  specimens  it  presents  no  differences  from 
the  rest  of  the  shell ;  last  whorl  shouldered  roundly,  forming  a 
rounded  angle  at  the  posterior  part  of  the  outer  lip ;  aperture 
narrow,  labrum  and  labium  nearly  parallel ;  pillar  with  four 
clearly  cut  folds,  the  anterior  continued  around  the  margin  of 
the  canal,  slightly  flaring,  to  join  the  outer  lip  ;  the  latter  slightly 
thickened  iitside,  with  about  a  dozen  rounded  denticulations, 
outwardly  little  or  not  at  all  reflected,  joining  the  body  behind 
at  an  acute  angle.  Long,  of  shell,  9'5;  of  last  whorl,  8-0;  of 
aperture,  7'5.  Lat.  of  shell,  6*0;  of  aperture,  1*5  mm.

This  species  resembles  M.  ritrea,  Hinds,  from  West  Africa, 
in  general  shape,  but  that  species  is  smaller  and  has  the  outer 
lip  not  denticulated.  M.  Watsoni  has  the  facies  of  a  deep-water

M.  FUSINA,  Dall. 

Shell  ovate-fusiform,  with  the  spire  nearly  as  long  as  the 
aperture,  polished  waxen  white,  five-whorled  ;  whorls  of  the 
spire  well  marked  and  rotundate  though  covered  with  a  trans- 
parent glaze ;  suture  distinct ;  apex  rounded  ;  lines  of  growth 
perceptible  under  the  glaze,  especially  near  the  suture  on  the 
last  whorl ;  aperture  short,  lunate,  with  no  posterior  angle  in 
the  outer  lip,  which  gently  rounds  to  the  body-whorl  before  and 
behind  ;  outer  lip  a  little  thickened  inside,  simple,  not  reflected ; 
folds  four,  the  two  anterior  ones  very  oblique  and  close  together ; 
canal  not  flaring,  short,  and  not  twisted  backward.  Long,  of 
shell,  8-0  ;  of  last  whorl,  6*0  ;  of  aperture,  4'5.  Max.  lat.,  4*0  ; 

lat.  of  aperture,  1-5  mm. 

Yucatan  Strait,  640  fms. 

This  has  somewhat  the  shape  of  Marginella  nodata,  in  a  gen- 
eral way,  but  is  more  evenly  fusiform,  and  quite  peculiar  in  its 
even  taper,  which  does  not  seem  to  be  ascribed  to  any  other 
species  (Dall). 

M.  SEMINULA,  Dall. 

This  species  differs  from  the  last  by  its  proportionally  shorter 
spire  containing  one  less  whorl ;  by  the  less  distinctly  marked 
suture ;  by  the  shouldering  of  the  last  whorl  which  angulates 
the  outer  lip  in  adult  specimens,  the  lip  in  this  vicinity  being 
generally  much  thickened  and  slightly  reflected,  somewhat  pro- 
duced in  the  middle,  and  thinning  towards  the  distinctly  flaring 
canal ;  the  columellar  folds  are  more  evenly  separated  and  the 
canal  is  slightly  recurved.  In  other  respects  it  resembles  M. 
fusina.  Long,  of  shell,  7*0  ;  of  last  whorl,  5*62  ;  of  aperture, 
5'12.  Lat.  of  shell,  3*5  ;  of  aperture,  1'25  mm. 

Yucatan  Strait,  640  fms. 

There  is  some  variation  in  size  and  in  the  way  in  which  the 
outer  lip  is  thickened  in  different  individuals.  The  shape  is  not 
far. from  that  of  M.f estiva.  The  measurements  are  of  the  largest 
of  several  specimens  (Dall). 

M.  YUCATECANA,  Dall. 

Shell  with  three  and  a  half  to  four  whorls,  smaller  than  the 
last  and  the  adult  specimens  proportionally  more  slender  and  of  a 


.~>X  Yni.YAHIA. 

distinctly  different  shape  ;  but  some  of  the  younger  specimens 
of  M.  tteminnla,  before  they  have  put  on  the  lip-callus  audits 
angulation,  appear  much  more  similar,  and  suggest  that  the 
range  of  variation  may  be  wide  enough  to  cover  both.  The 
present  form,  with  a  proportionately  shorter  spire  and  longer 
and  wider  aperture,  hns  an  evenly  rounded  outer  lip  and  body- 
whorl ;  which  recalls  M.fusina.  Its  chief  differences  from  M. 
#<>minnla  consist  in  those  features  which  accompany  the  should- 
ering of  the  whorls  and  the  thickening  of  the  outer  lip,  which  in 
this  form  seems  to  be  always  evenly  rounded,  arched  forward, 
and  hardly  thickened  ;  it  is  slightly  but  distinctly  reflected,  and 
the  canal  is  slightly  recurved.  Long,  of  shell,  5'62  ;  of  last 
whorl,  50;  of  aperture,  4'0.  Lat.  of  shell,  3'0  ;  of  aperture, 
1-37  mm. 

Yucatan  Strait,  640  fms. 
M.  TORTICULA,  Dall. 

Shell  slender,  shining,  grayish  waxen  white,  of  about  five 
whorls  ;  spire  roundly  pointed,  slender,  covered  in  the  adult  with 
a  complete  coat  of  translucent  glaze  almost  obscuring  the  sutures  ; 
last  whorl  somewhat  appressed  between  the  junction  of  the  outer 
lip  and  the  suture ;  turns  somewhat  laxly  coiled ;  surface  per- 
fectly smooth  ;  axis  laterally  curved,  with  the  convexity  to  the 
left,  so  that  the  spire  and  the  canal  both  point  to  right  of  a 
straight  line  when  the  shell  is  in  its  natural  position  ;  aperture 
long  and  narrow  ;  columella  with  four  very  oblique  folds,  of 
which  the  one  behind  the  anterior  fold  is  a  little  the  most 
prominent ;  outer  lip  simple,  not  reflected,  slightly  thickened,  and 
produced  posteriorly,  inwardly  convex  and  externally  concave 
in  correspondence  with  the  bent  axis  ;  aperture  widest  anteriorly, 
making  the  canal  very  open  ;  no  callus  on  the  body-whorl,  which 
is  joined  by  the  outer  lip  at  an  exceedingly  acute  angle.  Long, 
of  shell,  11-5;  of  last  whorl,  9*75 ;  of  aperture,  8'0  ;  Max.  lat.  of 
shell,  3'75  ;  medium  lat.  of  aperture,  1-0  mm.

152  fms.,  soft  coral  ooze,   West  Indies. 

The  only  shells  normally  arcuated  in  this  manner  which  occur 
to  me  are  some  species  of  Eulimn.  The  twist  gives  the  shell  a 
very  peculiar  and  highly  characteristic  appearance  (Dall).

Dentition,  PI.  2,  fig.  12. 

Subgenus  LAMPRODOMA,  Swainson. 

Spire  acuminate,  elevated,  suture  canaliculated ;  inner  lip  simple  poste- 
riorly, but  regularly  numerously  plicate  anteriorly,  the  plicae  more 
transverse  than  in  the  typical  group. 

Subgenus  CALLIANAX,  H.  and  A.  Adams. 

Shell  swollen,  ovate,  with  short  conical  spire  and  channeled  sutures  ; 
aperture  wide,  effuse  in  front ;  inner  lip  with  a  very  thicTc,  defined  callus, 
and  a  few,  frequently  indistinct,  anterior  plaits. 

Subgenus  AGARONIA,  Gray. 

Shell  thin,  oliviform,  but  a  little  effuse  anteriorly  ;  spire  acuminate, 
suture  channeled  ;  aperture  rather  wide,  effuse  anteriorly  ;  columella  not 
thickened  posteriorly,  tumid,  with  a  few  oblique  plaits  in  front,  Operculum

the  middle,  and  two  or  three  ooli-que  anterior  plaits. 

The  last  three  subgenera  appear  to  connect  the  typical  Olives  with  the 
Ancillariaa,  in  a  regular  series  of  stages  of  both  animal  and  shell,  as  well 
as  in  the  presence  01  an  operculum. 

PLOCHEL^BA,  Gabb

linear,  deeply  and  obliquely  notched  at  the  base,  as  in  Dibaphus  ;  outer 
lip  thickened  internally  in  the  middle  ;  inner  lip  callous  and  having 
several  transverse  folds,  of  which  the  upper  are  the  smallest;  columella 
strongly  recurved  at  the  base.  P.  crassilabra,  Gabb.  PI.  3,  fig.  22, 
Tertiary,  W. 


ANCILLARIIN.E,    HARPING.  61 

Subfamily  ANCILLARIIN^E. 

MONOPTYGMA,  Lea. 

Shell  with  elevated  spire  and  callous  columella,  the  latter  with  a 
snbcentral  conical  tooth  like  callous  projection.  M,  Alabamiensis,  Lea 
(PL  3,  fig.  23 >,  Eocene,  Alabama. 

AKCILLARIA,  Lam. 

Shell  oblong  or  subcylinarical,  thick  and  smooth  in  the  typical  species  ; 
body- whorl  usually  swollen,  sutures  covered  by  enamel ;  aperture  broadly 
effuse  below  ;  columella  typically  not  umbilicated,  with  a  few  oblique 
anterior  plaits.  The  revolving  basal  groove  ends  occasionally  in  a  slight 
anterior  labral  projection  or  tooth.  The  shell  may  be  distinguished  from 
the  Olives  by  the  spire  being  covered  with  callus  in  the  former,  whilst  in 
the  latter  the  suture  is  canaliculate.  Ancillopsis,  Conrad  (A.  scamba,  PI. 
3,  fig.  26 ;  A.  altile,  PL  3,  fig.  27),  is  a  synonym  of  AncMaria.  The  types  are 
eocene  fossils  from  Alabama,  Dentition,  PI.  2,  figs.  15,  16. 

Subgenus  OLIVULA,  Conrad. 

Shell  decussated  by  distinct,  close  longitudinal  and  revolving  striae  ; 
spire  covered  by  a  longitudinally  striate  callous  deposit,  forming  a  raised 
band  upon  the  suture  of  the  body-whorl  ;  aperture  posteriorly  channeled. 
Fossil  only.  0.  staminea,  Conr.,  Eocene,  Ala.  iPl.  3,  figs.  24,  25). 

Subgenus  ANOLACIA.  Gray. 

Shell  oblong-ovate,  thin  ;  body-whorl  swollen,  irregularly  covered  wuh 
slight  revolving  striae  ;  spire  very  s!  ort,  callous. 

The  thinness  of  the  shell,  form  of  body-whorl  and  short  shouldered 
spire  remind  one  of  the  genus  Cymba. 

Subgenus  DJPSACCUS,  Klein. 

Shell  solid,  polished  ;  columellar  lip  twisted,  separated  from  the  body- 
whorl  by  a  tortuous  fissure,  opening  into  the  umbilicus  above  ;  outer  lip 
with  a  slight  tooth  in  front. 

Subfamily  HARPIN.K. 

HARP  A,  Lam. 

Shell  oval,  the  body-whorl  very  vetitricose  ;  spire  very  short,  with  acute 
apex  ;  whorls  longitudinally  plicated  at  intervals,  the  plications  ending 
in  isharp  points  on  the  shoulder  ;  aperture  oblong,  large,  broadly  emargi- 
nate  below  ;  columella  without  folds.  No  operculum.  Dentition,  PL 
2,  fig.  17. 

The  figure,  copied  from  Troschel,  is  from  a  young  Harpa  only  an  inch 
in  length,  and  the  lingual  ribbon  is  in  this  genus  very  minute  compared 
with  the  size  of  the  animal.  Troschel  was  not  able  to  see  any  lateral 
teeth,  but  Macdonald,  who  only  observed  them  towards  the  posterior 
extremity,  records  that  they  are  very  similar  to  those  of  Olira.  Other 
observers  have  not  found  a  trace  of  lingual  armature,  and  it  is  possibly 
only  developed  in  the  young  animal. 


(12  OLIVIN.E. 

Subfamily  OLIYIN^E. 

Four  illustrated  monographies  of  the  Olives  have  been  pub- 
lished. The  earliest  one  is  that  of  Duclos,  forming  part  of 
Chenu's  "  Illustrations  Conchyliologiques ;"  next  followed  Reeve, 
in  the  "  Conchologica  Iconica,"  vol.  vi,  issued  in  1851.  In  1870-tl 
F.  P.  Marrat  contributed  an  elaborate  monograph  to  Sowerby 's 
"Thesaurus  Conchyliorum,"  beautifully  illustrated  by  Mr. 
Sowerby.  Mr.  Marrat,  who  does  not  believe  in  species,  has, 
unfortunately ,  in  this  group  as  in  Nassa,  illustrated  his  views  by 
naming  and  describing  a  number  of  forms  which  certainly  are 
not  species.  Sowerby,  in  the  reference  to  Plate  1,  says  :  "  Mr. 
Marrat 's  intention  is  rather  to  produce  evidence  than  to  decide 
upon  the  value  of  specific  differences.  In  his  study  of  affinities, 
he  has  been  led  to  register,  and  nominally  to  admit,  as  species 
many  forms  which  will  perhaps  appear  to  readers,  as  they  do  to 
the  editor,  quite  undistinguishable."  The  latest  and  best  mono- 
graph is  that  of  Dr.  H.  G-  Weinkauff,  completed  in  1878,  and 
forming  a  portion  of  Kiister's  "  Conchy  lien  Cabinet."  Dr.  Wein- 
kauff also  published  a  systematic  catalogue  of  the  species,  in  the 
"  Jahrbiicher  der  Deutsch.  Malak.  (resell., "  in  which  he  attempts 
to  arrange  the  species  in  accordance  with  their  natural  affinities 
and  to  separate  them  into  groups — which  appear  to  possess  some 
value.  I  have  mainly  followed  this  catalogue  in  the  present 
monography ;  adding,  however,  a  number  of  specific  names 
overlooked  by  Weinkauff'. 

H.  and  A.  Adams  and  Dr.  J.  E.  Gray  have  'both  proposed 
elaborate  series  of  genera  and  snbgenera  of  the  Olivinae  ;  most 
of  them,  whilst  serving  to  separate  specified  types,  failing  en- 
tirely to  furnish  distinctive  characters  for  other  species  which 
are  intermediate  in  form.  Such  names  will  be  registered  in  my 
synonymic  index,  scarcely  requiring  more  particular  mention 
here.  I  have  reversed  the  usual  order  of  succession  of  the 
groups  by  commencing  with  the  smallest  species  of  the  Olives, 
and  proceeding  through  the  Ancillariae  to  the  Harp-shells :  my 
motive  for  this  is  to  place  next  in  succession  to  the  Marginellae 
those  shells  which,  in  size  at  least,  most  nearly  approach  them. 

The  Olives  are  exclusively  tropical  animals. 


OLIVELLA.  ()3 

A  number  of  fossil  species  have  been  described  ;  they  com- 
mence in  the  Eocene  period. 

The  mantle  of  the  Olive  is  small,  its  edges  applied  to  the 
margin  of  the  aperture,  and  terminating  in  a  posterior  filament 
which,  coiling  in  the  channeled  suture  of  the  spire,  appears  to 
be  useful  in  keeping  the  mantle  in  place.  The  sides  of  the  foot 
are  wide  and  reflected  more  or  less  on  each  side  over  the  back 
of  the  shell.  As  in  some  other  mollusks  having  similarly  formed 
shells,  the  animal  possesses  the  power  of  absorbing  away  the 
earlier  volutions  in  order  to  make  space  for  its  growth  ;  it  also 
protects  the  at  first  very  thin  embryonal  whorls  by  internal  cal- 
cification, so  that  the  extreme  tip  of  the  spire  becomes  solid. 

At  Mauritius,  Olives  are  fished  with  a  line  having  three  or 
four  strings  attached,  each  baited  with  pieces  of  fish.  This  line 
is  thrown  into  the  sea  and  allowed  to  remain  until  the  mollusks 
have  become  well  settled  to  their  feast,  and  then  drawn  in.  The 
Polynesian  Islanders  use  the  smaller  species  extensively  for  the 
manufacture  of  ornaments  such  as  bracelets,  girdles,  etc., 
piercing  them  at  the  spire  and  then  stringing  them.  They 
prefer  pure  white  shells  for  this  purpose,  and  cause  the  colored 
markings  to  disappear  by  application  of  heat.  Mr.  John  Brazier, 
of  Sydney,  Xew  South  Wales,  has  recent^  sent  me  specimens  of 
the  beautiful  0.  A  iixtralis,  thus  treated  by  the  natives  of  Xew 
Guinea — they  might  readily  be  mistaken  for  a  distinct  species. 

Oliwlla  Uplicata,  Sby.,  appears  to  have  been  used  as  money 
by  the  Californian  Indians,  under  the  name  of  col-col,  and  is 
still  manufactured  into  necklaces  by  them.* 

Genus  OLIVELLA,  Swa;nson. 

Ohvella  is  distinguished  from  Oliva  by  the  small  size  of  its 
shell  and  more  produced  spire,  by  the  presence  of  a  large,  thin, 
horny  operculum,  and  the  want  of  eyes.  Dr.  Paul  Fischer  has 
recently  attempted  to  show  that  another  distinction  arises  from 
the  absorption  of  the  internal  whorls  of  the  shell,  in  the  Olirella, 
as  in  Auricula,  this  absorption  not  taking  place  in  the  typical 
Olives  ;  however,  in  0.  reticularis  I  have  found  the  interior  walls 
absorbed  away  so  that  veiy  little  of  their  substance  remains, 


Steams,  Am.  Natuialist,  xi,  344. 


l')4  OI.IVKLLA. 

and  I  presume  that  it  will  prove  to  be  the  fact  that  all  shells 
with  close  volutions  are  similarly  absorbed  internally. 

The  Olivelhxj  affect  sandy  localities,  burying  themselves 
beneath  the  surface,  upon  which  they  leave  no  trace.  D'Orbigny 
has  observed  0.  Trhuelcharia  suddenly  expand  the  lobes  of  its 
foot,  and  using  them  to  beat  the  water  like  the  wings  of  the 
pteropods,  shoot  rapidly  through  the  element. 

I  follow  Weinkauff  in  considering  Lamprodoma  and  CalHanax 
subgenera  of  Oliva,  but  I  cannot  follow  him  in  dividing  what  is 
left  of  OlivrUa  into  three  groups  characterized  by  the  extent 
:ind  thickness  of  the  columellar  callus  ;  that  character  being 
decidedly  of  gradual  development  through  the  series  of  species. 

O.  VERREAUXT,  Ducros.     PI.  14,  fig.  41,  42. 

Purplish  white  or  yellowish  white,  with  distant,  longitudinal, 

zigzag  purple  stripes.     Length,  5-7  mill. 

Wi'*t  Indie* 
The   spire   is  more  produced  than   in  the   usual  form  of  0. 

nitidula,  the  stripes  are  larger  and  more  distant,  there  are  no 
traces  of  bands  and  it  has  not  the  fasciculated  markings  at  the 
suture  and  base  so  common  in  nitidula ;  still,  it  is  possibly  a 
variety  of  that  protean  species.  It  is  the  0.  mutica  of  Reeve,  in 
part,  and  probably  0.  mica,  Duclos  (fig.  42)  ;  the  latter  name 
has  priority,  but  the  identification  is  not  certain. 

O.  MUTICA,  Say.     PI.  14,  figs.  43-55. 

White,  yellowish,  bluish  ash  or  deep  chocolate,  when  very 
dark,  the  color  results  from  the  coalescence  of  three  bands  of 
chocolate-brown,  which  appear  upon  the  lighter  colored,  typical 
specimens ;  these  bands  vary  in  width,  the  centre  one  being 
usually. the  broadest;  sometimes  they  are  all  so  broad  as  to 
appear  to  be  the  ground-color,  the  narrow  interspaces  forming 
two  white  bands.  The  spire  is  produced.  Length,  10-16  mill. 

North  Carolina  to  West  Indies. 

With  the  typical  form  I  unite  0.  pusilla,  Marrat  (figs.  45,  46), 
and  0.  rufifasciata,  Reeve  (fig.  47). 

Var.  NITIDULA,  Dillwyn.     Figs.  48-55. 

Spire  shorter,  shell  comparatively  wider,  bands  very  faint  or 
obsolete;  yellowish  or  pink-brown  with  a  chocolate  or  chestnut 
band  at  the  suture  and  another  bordering  the  fasciole  ;  these

of  brown  stripes,  which  are  either  short,  or  connected  in  a  zig- 
zag manner  over  the  body-whorl.  Length,  10  mill. 

South  Carolina  to  Brazil. 

Ordinarily  the  distinction  of  form  and  coloring  serves  perfectly 
to  distinguish  this  from  the  typical  form,  yet  there  occur, although 
not  plentifully,  intermediate  shells.  The  stumpy  shape  of  0. 
nitidula  is  accompanied  by  a  heavy  deposit  of  callus  on  the  colu- 
mella,  which  does  not  occur  in  the  typical  form  :  very  probably 
this  difference  in  growth  is  due  to  the  surroundings  of  the  mollusk. 
There  is  great  variation  in  the  development  of  denticles  upon 
the  columella  in  both  forms,  these  being  few  or  obsolete  in  some 
specimens  and  very  numerous  in  others,  occupying  nearly  the 
whole  length  of  the  inner  lip.  The  following  appear  to  be  syno- 
nyms of  the  variety :  O.  zigzag,  Duclos  (figs.  50, 51),  0.  fimbriata, 
Reeve  (fig.  52),  0.  micula,  Marrat  (fig.  53),  0.  miliola,  d'Orb. 
(fig.  54),  which  appears  to  be  the  young,  and  0.  strigata,  Reeve 
(fig.  55). 

0.  MANDARINA,  Duclos.       PI.  14,  figS.  56,  5t. 

Spire  rather  elevated,  inner  lip  with  a  strong  callous  deposit 
above,  extending  upwards  to  the  spire  ;  yellowish  white,  painted 
with  zigzag  longitudinal  brown  stripes,  sometimes  spotted  or 

fasciculated  below  the  suture.     Length,  10  mill. 

China. 

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  species  ;  it  appears  to  be  nearly 
allied  to  the  preceding,  but  of  more  solid  build.  The  locality 
has  not  been  confirmed,  and  the  more  recent  monographs  have 
simply  copied  Duclos.  0.  Tunguina,  Duclos  (fig.  57),  is  evidently 
a  synonym,  but  Marrat  has  erroneously  identified  with  it  a 
specimen  of  the  typical  0.  mutica. 

O.  ROSALINA,  Duclos.     PI.  14,  figs.  58-60. 

Shell  flesh-color  with  distant  zigzag  brown  markings ;  colu- 
mella tinged  with  rose-color.  Length,  Y  mill. 

West  Indies. 

I  am  unacquainted  with  this  species,  which,  except  in  its 
columella  being  colored,  does  not  seem  to  differ  from  0.  Verreauxi, 
Ducros.  0.  Sowerbyij  Ducros  (fig.  59),  and  0.  Volutelloides , 
Marrat  (fig.  60),  are  synonyms. 


66  OLIVELLA. 

O.  PETIOLITA,  Duclos.     PI.  14,  figs.  61-63. 

Yellowish  white,  fasciculated  and  reticulated  with  chestnut- 
color,  and  with  a  narrow  chestnut  revolving  band  upon  the 
fasciole.  Length  12-18  mill. 

West  Coast  of  America,  from  Panama  to  Mazatlan. 

Much  resembles  large  specimens  of  0.  mutica,  Say,  var. 
nitidula,  from  the  West  Indies  ;  but  the  markings  in  the  typical 
specimens  are  irregularly  reticulated  instead  of  zigzag.  I  unite 
with  it  O.intorta,  Carpenter  (fig.  62),  and  0.  mica,  Marrat,  not 
Duclos  (fig.  63). 

Yar.  AUREOCINCTA,  Carp. 

Having  an  orange  zone  beneath  the  suture,  appearing  purplish 
within  the  aperture. 

This  zone  is  probably  made  up  of  fasciculations  worn  yellowish 
on  a  beach-rolled  specimen.  I  have  not  seen  an  authentic 
example  of  it  and  it  has  not  been  figured. 

O.  TERGINA,  DUCIOS.       PI.  14,  fig.  67. 

Marked  like  Q.petiolita,  but  more  vividly  ;  distinguished  from 
it  by  its  swollen,  blunt  spire,  and  by  being  somewhat  more  effuse 

at  the  base..    Length,  12-15  mill. 

Acapulco,  Mazatlan. 

O.  PLANA,  Marrat.     PL  14,  fig.  64. 

Shell  white,  solid,  with  a  heavy  callous  deposit  on  the  inner 

lip.     Length,  7  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

This  may  be  a  white  variety  of  the  last  species,  perhaps ;  it 
has  no  distinctive  characters  and  might  readily  enter  several 
species. 

O.  ESTHER,  Duclos.     PL  14,  figs.  65,  66. 

Shell  heavy,  with  short  spire,  and  strong  callus  on  the  upper 
part  of  the  columella.  Yellowish  white,  fasciculated  with  chest- 
nut at  the  suture,  with  a  chestnut  band  upon  the  fasciole,  and 
minute  longitudinal  zigzag  markings  of  the  same  color  upon  the 

body-whorl.     Length,  6  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

A  shorter,  heavier  form  than  O.petiolita,  judging  from  the 
figure,  yet  doubtfully  distinct :  the  shells  usually  known  under 


OLIVELLA.  67 

this  name  are  certainly   0.  pe.tiolita.      0.  columba,  Duclos  (fig. 
66),  may  be  considered  an  uncolored  variety  of  this  species. 

0.  ZONALIS,  Lam.     PL  15,  fig.  69. 

White,  with  three  chestnut  revolving  bands,  about  same  width 

as  the  interspaces.     Length,  5-6  mill. 

Mazatlan. 

0.  zanoeta,  Duclos  (fig.  69),  appears  to  be  a  larger  specimen  or 
magnified  figure  of  this  species. 

0.  COLUMELLARIS,  Sowb.     PI.  15,  figs.  70-73. 

Acuminately  ovate,  the  spire  exserted,  base  broadly  effused ; 
columellar  lip  with  heavy  callus  extending  to  the  top  of  the 
body-whorl;  commencing  at  the  suture  are  a  number  of  close, 
fine,  longitudinal  striae,  which  extend  longitudinally  to  near  the 
centre  of  the  body-whorl,  where  they  become  obsolete,  and  the 
rest  of  the  whorl  is  polished ;  spire  and  fasciole  white,  body- 
whorl  almost  covered  by  three  broad  chestnut  or  plum-colored 
bands,  the  two  dividing  interspaces  of  yellowish  white  being 
quite  narrow.  Length,  1£-15  mill. 

Payta,  Peru,  in  floe  sand  at  low  water  (Cuming); 

W.  Columbia;  Panama. 

0.  semistriata,  Gray  (fig.  71),  0.  att^nuata,  Reeve  (fig.  72),  and 
0.  affinis,  Marrat  (fig.  73),  are  synonyms. 

0.  NIVEA,  Gmelin.     PI.  15,  figs.  74-88. 

Acuminately  oblong,  the  spire  much  exserted  ;  body-whorl 
fasciculated  with  pink  at  the  suture  and  at  the  border  of  the 
broad  fasciole,  with  pink  maculations,  more  or  less  distinct 
upon  the  intermediate  surface.  Length,  *6-*9  inch. 

Bahamas  ;  West  Indies  ;  Brazil.    . 

Distinguished  from  0.  mutica,  Say,  by  its  larger  size,  more 
elevated  spire,  and  (usually)  maculated  instead  of  zigzag  mark- 
ings. The  synonymy  is  enormous,  including  0.  eburnea,  Lam., 
0.  parvula,  Mart.  (fig.  75),  0.  oryza,  Lam.  (founded  on  immature, 
colorless  examples),  0.  Guildingi,  Reeve  (fig.  76),  0.  monilifera, 
Reeve  (fig.  77),  0.  pulchella,  Reeve  (fig.  78),  0.  dea'lbata,  Reeve

0.  diadocus,  Ads.  and  Reeve  (fig.  84),  0.  cuneata,  Marr.  (fig.  85), 
having  a  more  than  usually  produced  spire,  0.  scurra,  Marr.

0.  MYRIADINA,  DueloS.       PI.  15,  fig.  90. 

Spire  prominent,  showing  six  whorls ;  pure  white. 

Length,  3-4  mill. 

Panama, 

This  is  the  smallest  of  the  Olivellas,  yet  the  number  of  whorls 
and  form  of  the  shell  indicate  maturity.  Duclos  gives  no  locality, 
but  I  venture  to  identify  with  his  species  the  unfigured  0.  incon- 
spicudi  C.  B.  Ad.,  from  Panama;  a  species  which  has  been  mis- 
understood by  Marrat  and  Kiister — as  has  also  been  myriadina. 

0.  JASPIDEA,  Gmelin.     PL  15,  figs.  91-94. 

Yellowish  white,  closely  fasciculated  with  dark  chestnut  at  the 
sutures,  and  frequently  above  the  fasciole  also ;  intermediate 
surface  closely  reticulated  and  punctated,  fasciole  strigated  with 

bright  chestnut.     Length,  12-18  mill. 

West  Indies. 

0.  piperita,  Marr.  (figs.  93,  94),  is  based  on  water-worn 
specimens.

fig.  6. 
Pellucid  white,  with  an  opaque  zone  at  the  suture. 

Length,  12-15  mill. 

San  Bias,  Patagonia. 

With  this  I  unite  0.  bullula,  Reeve  (fig.  1),  said  to  be  West 
Indian,  and  0.  pur  a.  Reeve  (fig.  97). 

O.  FLORALIA,  Duclos.     PL  15,  fig.  98  ;  PL  16,  figs.  99,  100,  2,3. 

Shell  narrow,  with  acuminated  spire ;  spire  yellowish-  or 
chestnut-tipped,  body-whorl  wrhite,  or  with  nearly  obsolete, 
distant  chestnut  zigzag  markings.  Length,  8-10  mill. 

West  Indies. 

Distinguished  from  0.  jaspidea  and  0.  nivea  by  its  narrow 
form  and  elongated  spire.  It  is  the  0.  oryza  of  Duclos,  not 
Lamarck,  and  0.  alba  (fig.  98),  and  0.  elongata  (figs.  99,  100), 
of  Marrat. 


OLIVELLA.  09 

O.  LEPTA,  Duclos.     PI.  16,  figs.  4-11 ;  PL  IT,  fig.  52. 

Narrow,  with  elongated  spire ;  a  narrow  chestnut  line  or  row 
of  spots  beneath  the  suture,  a  more  distinct  interrupted  line  at 
the  margin  of  the  fasciole,  and  the  intermediate  space  with 
zigzag  longitudinal  lines,  base  of  shell  chestnut. 

Length,  8  mill. 

China  Sea;  Japan;  Philippines. 

With  this  species  I  include  0.  consobrina,  Lischke  (unfigured), 
0.  fabula,  Marrat  (figs.  5,  6  ,  0.  lanceolata,  Rve.  (figs.  T,  8),  0. 
pulicaria,  Marrat  (fig.  9),  0.  exilis,  Marr.  (fig.  10),  O.fulgurata, 
Ad.  and  Reeve  (fig.  11),  and  0.  pellucida,  Rve.  (fig.  52). 

0.  FORTUNEI,  Adams.     PI.  16,  figs.  12-15. 

Widely  fusiform,  maculated  or  covered  with  zigzag  longitu- 
dinal chestnut  markings,  fasciculated  at  the  sutures. 

Length,  8  mill. 

China;  Japan. 

Yery  similar  to  the  last  species  in  markings,  but  differing  in 
form.  I  can  see  no  good  reason  to  separate  0.  pulchra,  Marr. 
(fig.  14),  a  species  described  without  locality,  and  I  agree  with 
Weinkauff  that  the  unfigured  0.  signata,  Lischke,  is  also  very 
closely  allied.  Perhaps  0.  spreta,  Gould,  may  belong  here ;  the 
author  never  figured  it  and  the  type,  I  suppose,  was  destroyed 
by  fire,  in  Chicago  ;  I  give  a  figure  which  E.  A.  Smith  identifies 
with  this  species  (fig.  15). 

0.  LEUCOZONIAS,  Gray.     PI.  16,  figs.  16,  IT. 

Orange-yellow,  with  zigzag  chestnut  lines  and  maculations,  a 
white  band  at  the  suture,  spotted  with  chestnut,  and  another 
white  band  below  the  middle  of  the  shell.  Length,  12-15  mill. 

Senegal. 
0.  ANAZORA,  Duclos.     PI.  16,  figs  19-23. 

Markings  similar  to  those  of  the  two  preceding  species,  with 
a  form  about  intermediate  between  them.  I  am  not  able  to  give 
any  better  distinction  than  the  very  different  locality;  indeed, 
the  probability  is  that  the  future  conchologist,  with  specimens 
from  more  numerous  stations,  will  be  able  to  reduce  the  number 
of  species  of  Olivella  to  a  very  few,  each  of  them  presenting 
certain  types  of  variation  in  form  and  coloring. 

Length,  8-13  mill. 

Xipixapi,  W.  Columbia;  Acapulco;  Mazatlan.

With  this  I  unite  0.  pull  a,  Marr.  (fig.  19),  0.  versicolor,  Marr. 
(figs.  20,  21),  0.  compta,  Marr.  (fig.  22).  0.  Capensis,  Sowb.  (fig. 
23),  said  to  come  from  the  Cape  of  Good  Hope,  can  only  be 
separated  by  its  doubtful  locality. 

O.  PUELCHANA,  d'Orbiguy.     PL  16,  figs.  24,  25  ;  PI.  1,  fig.  1. 

Yiolet-brown,  more  or  less  maculated,  with  a  narrow  white 
band  above  the  brown-tinted  fasciole,  and  a  wider  band,  macu- 
lated with  brown,  below  the  suture  ;  aperture  dark-colored 
within.  Length,  12-15  mill. 

San  Bias,  Patagonia  (d'Orb) ;  Carthagena,  Centr.  Am.?  (Reeve). 

I  fear  that  this  is  no  more  than  an  extreme  color-variet}r  of 
the  preceding  species.  0.  cyanea,  Reeve,  is  a  synonym,  not 
differing  in  any  respect. 

O.  UNDATELLA,  Lam.     PL  16,  fig.  18 ;  PL  It,  figs.  35-38 ;  PL  33, 

fig.  31. 

Ash-gray,  with  zigzag  chestnut  markings,  distinct  or  obsolete, 
but  forming  two  well-marked  revolving  bands  by  the  color 
becoming  more  emphasized  ;  a  yellow  band  marked  with  chestnut 
beneath  the  sutures  ;  fasciole  yellowish,  strigated  with  chestnut ; 
interior  and  base  of  columella  chocolate-colored. 

Length,  -5-'8  inch. 

Panama  t«»  Mazatlan. 

The  above  description  is  that  of  the  typical  coloration,  but  the 
variation  in  color  and  markings  is  so  great  that  it  is  wonderful 
that  a  number  of  species  have  not  been  separated  from  it.  One 
of  the  principal  variations  is  a  pure  white,  with  indefinite 
cloudings,  maculations  or  zigzags  of  chocolate  ;  another  white, 
with  pink  longitudinal  zigzag  markings,  etc.  Fig.  31  represents 
0.  nedulina,  Duclos. 

0.  ORACiLis,  Brod.  and  Sowb.     PL  16,  fig.  26  ;  PL  It,  fig.  2t. 

Shell  rather  slender,  with  elevated  spire,  and  somewhat  effuse 
below  ;  yellowish  fawn,  with  light  chestnut  zigzag  markings  and 

maculations.     Length,  '7-'9  inch. 

Mazatlan;  Lower  California. 

Distinguished  from  0.  Anazora,  which  inhabits  the  same 
region,  by  its  more  slender  form,  elevated  spire,  greater  size  and 
lighter  color.  0.  t^nu^s^  Marrat  (fig.  27),  is  probably  a  juvenile 
of  this  species, 


OL1VELLA.  7  \ 

O.  B^TICA,  Carpenter.     PL  17,  figs.  28-31,  34. 

Spire  moderately  elevated,  sharp-pointed,  body-whorl  oval; 
red-brown  or  gray,  fasciculated  upon  a  white  band  at  the  suture ; 
body-whorl  maculated  or  with  zigzag  markings,  and  sometimes 
a  white  central  band,  fasciole  white,  tip  of  spire  frequently  dark- 
tinted.  Length,  *75-l  inch. 

Coast  of  California. 

W.  M.  Gabb  identifies  this  species  with  the  post-pliocene 
0.  Pedroana,  Conrad  (fig.  30),  which  would  have  priority,  if 
identical ;  a  still  earlier  published  name  is  0.  alectona,  Duclos 
(fig.  34),  but  I  am  not  convinced  that  it  is  the  same  species. 
0.  nota,  Marrat  (fig.  31),  said  to  come  from  Vancouver's  Island, 
may  be  referred  to  the  present  species  with  more  confidence. 
0.  bsetica,  is  a  larger,  somewhat  more  swollen  form  than 
0.  Anazora,  but  not  very  different. 

0.  BAMA,  Mawe.     PI.  17,  fig.  39. 

Spire  and  fasciole  j^ellowish  white,  the  former  ash-tipped,  the 
latter  sometimes  bearing  a  band  of  chestnut  maculations,  body- 
whorl  long-fasciculated  at  the  suture  and  closely  reticulated  over 
the  balance  of  the  surface ;  interior  of  aperture  and  columella 

violet.     Length,  *6-l  inch. 

Guaymas,  Mazatlan. 

This  may  prove  to  be  a  very  solid  variety  of  0.  bsetica,  Carp., 
yet  possesses  distinctive  characters  in  its  solidity,  shorter  spire 
and  violet  aperture. 

O.  PULCHELLA,  DucloS.       Pl.\17,  fig.  40. 

A  solid  shell,  sparingly  marked  with  zigzag  brown  lines,  and 
maculate  below  the  suture.  Length,  *18  mill. 

Cape  Blanco,  W.  Africa. 

A  doubtful  species  from  a  doubtful  locality.  Weinkauff 
considers  it  identical  with  0.  leucozonias,  Gray,  with  which  it 
appears  to  me  to  have  but  little  in  common.  To  me  it  looks 
more  like  a  worn  specimen  of  0.  dama. 

0.  EXQUISITA,  Angas.     PI.  17,  figs.  32,  33,  41. 

Brownish  yellow,  with  three  rows  of  rather  distant  irregular 
chestnut  maculations,  connected  by  undulating  longitudinal 
lines,  which  cover  the  fasciole.  Length,  8-12  mill. 

N.  S.  Wales,  Australia. 


72 

I  think  it  almost  certain  that  0.  Brazieri,  Angas  (fig.  41),  is 
merely  a  larger,  less  distinctly  marked  variety  of  the  same 
species. 

0.  TRITICEA,  Duclos.     PL  17,  figs.  42-44. 

Yellowish  white,  with  three  revolving  rows  of  chestnut-brown 
maculations.  Length,  10  mill. 

New  Guinea  (Duclos);  Port  Jackson,  Australia, 

5  fathoms  (Ad.  and  Ang.). 
0.  pardalis,  Adams  and  Angas  (fig.  44),  is  a  synonym. 

0.  LEUCOZONA,  Ad   and  Ang.     PI.  17,  fig.  45. 

Yellowish  brown,  longitudinally  reticulated  with  chestnut, 
with  a  bluish  white  band  above  the  fasciole,  tinged  with  chestnut 

at  the  base.     Length,  15  mill. 

Port  Jackson,  Australia,  6  fathoms. 

Besides  the  difference  in  painting,  this  species  has  a  longer 
spire  and  is  larger  than  0.  triticea. 

O.  NYMPHA,  Ad.  and  Angas.     PL  17,  fig.  46. 

Spire  elevated  ;  semipellucid  white,  with  an  opaque  white  band 
at  the  suture.  Length,  10  mill. 

Port  Stephens,  N.  8.  Wales,  5  fathoms  (Angas);  Mauritius

Pure  white,  shining.     Length,  4-5  mill. 

Upolu  and  Tongataboo^  Polynesia. 
0.  nitens,  Dunker  (fig.  48),  is  a  synonym. 

O.  AUSTRALIS,  Tenison-Woods.  Australia. 

I  have  not  seen  the  description  of  this  species.     It  is  unfigured. 

Genus  OLIVA,   Brug. 
Subgenus  Lamprodoma,  Swainsnn. 

I  commence  with  this  small  group  rather  than  with  the  typical 
Olives,  because  it  appears  to  connect  the  latter  with  Olivella. 

Seven  species  are  enumerated  by  Weinkauff,  and  one  only  of 
these  has  the  characteristic  numerous  transverse  ridges  on  the 
fasciole ;  the  others  may  be  referred  to  Olivella.  0.  volutella  is 
found  in  vast  numbers  over  many  acres  on  the  sandy  beach  west 
of  the  city  of  Panama;  most  numerous  where  the  beach  has  a 


OLIVA.  *       73 

gentle  slope  midway  between  high-  and  low-water  mark.  Some 
time  after  the  retreat  of  the  tide,  it  is  found  crawling  about  with 
much  vivacity  on  the  wet  sand.  The  shell,  while  the  animal  is 
moving,  is  wholly  covered  with  the  foot-lobes,  and  these  are 
entirely  concealed  with  a  thick  coat  of  sand.  When  the  first 
wrave  of  the  returning  tide  strikes  them,  washing  off  their  coat 
of  sand,  they  instantly  bury  themselves.* 

0.  VOLUTELLA,  Lam.  PI.  It,  figs.  49-51. 

Yellowish,  bluish  gray,  chestnut-  or  chocolate-colored  ;  the 
spire  and  fasciole  often  }^ellowish  and  the  body-whorl  darker- 
colored  ;  the  latter  sometimes  faintly  marked  with  longitudinal 
zigzag  strigations  ;  interior  of  aperture  yellowish  to  chocolate- 

brown.     Length,  '15-1  '25  inches. 

Panama  to  Gulf  of  California. 

0.  rasamola,  Duclos  (fig.  51),  and  0.  selasia,  Duclos,  are  syn- 
onyms ;  the  latter  founded  on  a  water-worn  specimen. 

(Jenus  OLIVA.      (Typical.} 

The  Olives  form  a  very  distinct  group  of  mollusks,  partaking 
in  the  form,  and  porcellanous  coating  of  their  shells,  in  the 
character  of  Cypraea  on  one  side  and  the  Volutes  on  the  other 
side.  Like  most  shells  enveloped  in  the  voluminous  foot  of  the 
animal,  the  Oliva  has  no  epidermis,  and  to  the  same  circumstance 
is  to  be  attributed  the  want  of  an  operculum.  The  shell  has  an 
under  layer  with  different  pattern  of  coloring,  but  this  is  never 
exposed,  unless  in  worn  specimens,  or  else  artificially  by  the  aid 
of  acids ;  hence  it  is  evident  that,  unlike  the  Cyprsea,  which 
changes  its  pattern  upon  becoming  mature,  the  two  layers  in 
Oliva  are  simultaneously  produced  at  all  stages  of  its  growth. 

The  Olives  are  tropical  in  distribution,  the  species  usually 
being  somewhat  restricted  in  geographical  area.  They  live  on 
sandy  flats,  burrowing  under  the  surface  as  the  tide  retires ; 
they  are  very  active,  moving  with  considerable  quickness. 

Many  of  the  species  are  immediately  recognized  by  peculiar, 
unvarying  patterns  of  coloring ;  others,  again,  vary  so  greatly 
in  this  respect  that  it  is  almost  impossible  to  define  them  satis- 
factorily.

shoulder;  flesh-color,  covered  with  numerous  chestnut  spots, 
disposed  to  coalesce  into  close  zigzag  longitudinal  markings, 
or  into  larger  and  more  distant  zigzags  ;  sometimes  the  markings 
are  entirely  absent,  in  others  the  entire  surface  is  more  or  less 

covered  with  chestnut.     Length,  2  inches. 

Peru  aod  Chili. 

O.  EPISCOPALIS,  Lam.     PL  18,  figs.  59,  60  ;  PL  19r  figs.  61-63.

aperture  deep  violet.  Length,  1*5 -2*25  inches. 

Indian  Ocean;  N.  Australia;  N.  Caledonia  to  Central  Pacific. 

Constantly  distinguished  by  its  violet  interior.  0.  lugubris, 
Lam.  (fig.  60),  is  a  dark-colored  variety  ;  0.  quersolina  (fig.  59), 
and  0.  atalina,  Duclos  (fig.  62),  are  pale  or  faded  specimens. 
0.  fulva,  Marrat  (fig.  63),  is  pink  with  light  red  spots  and 
indistinct  bands,  roseate  within  the  aperture:  I  agree  with  Dr. 
Weinkauff  that  it  is  probably  only  a  variation  of  0.  epitcopalis.

of  aperture  orange-red.  Length,  l'5-2'25  inches. 

Indian  Ocean,  China,  Philippines,  Polynesia,  Madagascar,  Zanzibar. 

0.  cruenta,  Sol.,  and  0.  emicator,  Meusch.,  have  priority  over 
0.  guttata,  but  the  latter  name  is  so  well  known  that  it  seems 
inadvisable  to  change  it.  0.  mantichora,  Duel.  (fig.  67),  is  a 
monstrous  condition  of  this  species,  not  uncommon  among 
Olives. 

0.  RUFULA,  Duclos.     PI.  20,  fig.  79. 

Fawn-colored,  crossed  diagonally  or  transversely  by  dark

0.  TNFLATA,  Lam.     PL  19,  figs.  68-70  ;  PI.  20,  figs.  71-76. 

Shell  swollen,  becoming  gibbous  in  the  middle  in  old  specimens, 
the  spire  partially  sunken  below  the  edge  of  the  body-whorl,  the 
latter  produced  behind,  with  a  heavy  callous  deposit ;  outer  lip 
sometimes  enormously  thickened  ;  fasciole  with  a  heavy  callous 
ridge,  independent  of  the  columellar  plaits ;  color  white  or 
yellowish,  more  or  less  dotted,  blotched  or  banded,  or  lightning- 
streaked  with  brown-orange,  chestnut,  chocolate  or  bluish  ash, 
sometimes  variegated  with  two  or  three  colors  at  once,  sometimes 
almost  or  entirely  covered  with  dark  color,  occasionally  pure 
white  ;  aperture  white  within.  Length,  1-5-2  inches. 

Red  Sea;  Ceylon;  E.  Africa;  Madagascar;  Seychelles. 

The  variability  of  this  species  in  coloring  is  exceedingly  great. 
When  old,  the  best  characters  are  derived  from  the  inflated  form, 
sunken  spire,  callous  thickenings  and  columellar  ridge;  but  less 
developed  specimens  are  so  close  to  some  of  the  succeeding 
species  that  their  distinction  appears  to  be  somewhat  doubtful. 

0.  lacertina,  Quoy  (figs.  75,  76),  is  a  somewhat  peculiarly 
colored  young  shell  of  this  species  ;  I  have  a  similar  specimen 
before  me.

The  markings  are  similar  to  varieties  of  the  preceding-  species, 
from  which  it  is  somewhat  doubtfully  distinguished  by  its  less 
inflated  form,  spire  not  so  much  sunken,  fascicle  without  the 
callous  ridge,  etc.  As  in  infiata,  the  color  varies,  but  not  so 
frequently,  perhaps;  I  figure  a  dark-hued  specimen  (fig.  78). 
0.  glandiformis,  Marr.  (fig.  80),  is  at  least  identical  as  to  the 
figure  I  copy  ;  the  two  additional  figures  given  by  Marrat  appear 
to  be  more  similar  to  0.  elegans,  Lam. 

O.  ELEGANS,  Lam.     PI.  20,  figs.  81-83  ;  PI.  21,  figs.  84-88. 

Shell  olive,  or  brownish  yellow,  closely  covered  with  zigzag 
lines  or  punctations,  or  both,  varying  from  chocolate  to  nearly 
black,  and  frequently  shaded  with  orange,  and  bluish  ash  ;  some- 
times there  is  an  overlaid  darker  series  of  crowded  zigzags 
forming  two  irregular  bands,  or  even  almost  covering  the  shell ; 
fasciole  tinged  with  saffron-color.  Length,  1*5— 1*75  inches. 

Indian  Ocean  to  Central  Polynesia. 

Generally  smaller,  darker-colored  and  not  so  much  inflated  as 
0.  tiyrina,  but  I  have  hesitated  long  whether  to  treat  it  as  a 
synonym  of  that  species  or  as  distinct ;  its  characteristics  are 
certainly  insufficient.  I  am  compelled  to  place  here  as  synonyms 
several  so-called  species  which  have  heretofore  been  considered 
distinct,  but  the  large  number  of  specimens  before  me  covers 
every  grade  of  variation  between  them ;  the  tinted  fasciole 
appears  to  be  a  feature  common  to  all.  These  synonyms  are 
0.  flava,  Marr.  (fig.  83),  0.  infrenata,  Marr.  (fig.  84),  and 
0.  Hemiltona,  Duclos  (fig.  85). 

Var.  TRICOLOR,  Lam.     Figs.  8B-88. 

The  zigzag  painting  is  more  or  less  broken  up  into  spots,  and 
is  blue,  olive  or  chocolate  shaded  with  orange,  disposed  upon  a 
light  ground.  This  has  usually  been  considered  a  distinct 
species,  but  is  connected  with  the  type  by  insensible  gradations. 
0.  tringa,  Duclos  (fig.  88),  is  probably  the  young  state.

Shell  marked  and  banded  with  chocolate-colored  triangular 
markings,  as  in  0.  elegans,  the  fasciole  similarly  stained  with 
saffron-color  ;  form  somewhat  more  bulbous  ;  interior  of  aperture 
violaceous.  Length,  35  mill. 

China 

The  colored  aperture  is  the  best  distinctive  character.  0. 
x/w/h's,  Marrat  (fig.  92),  appears  to  be  a  minor  form  of  this 
species;  and  0.  calosoma,  Marr.,  not  Duclos  (fig.  30),  is  a  still 
smaller  form;  0.  stellata,  Duel.  (fig.  93),  may  also  probably  be 
referred  here. 

0.  BULBIFORMIS,  Duclos.     PL  21,  figs.  94-96. 

Shell  short  and  very  bulbous,  colored  as  in  0.  elegans  externally, 
but  the  interior  of  the  aperture  chocolate-brown,  or  violaceous 
brown.  Length,  30  mill. 

Solomon  Is.;  Moluccas. 

The  form  is  typically  very  distinct  from  all  species  related  in 
external  coloring,  3'et  I  fear  that  it  will  be  found  to  graduate 
into  the  preceding  species. 

O.  FUNEBRALIS,  Lam.     PL  21,  figs.  97-99  ;  PL  22,  figs.  100-5. 

Shell  rather  more  cylindrical  than  the  preceding  species,  with 
the  usual  color-markings  of  the  group.  It  differs  insufficiently 
from  0.  Lecoquiana  in  the  lower  band  of  the  fasciole  being  deeply 
strigated  with  chocolate ;  aperture  white  or  slightly  bluish  or 
chocolate  within.  Length,  1-1 '8  inches.

0.  grata,  Marr.  (fig.  11),  0.  Pacifica,  Marr.  (fig.  12),  0.  arctata, 
Marr.  (fig.  13),  and  0.  cana,  Marr.  (fig.  14).  Possibly  0.  neostina,

bluish  within.  Length,  1 '25-1 '5  inches. 

Australia;  New  Guinea. 

This  bears  some  resemblance  to  the  preceding,  and  is  more 
closely  related  to  the  following  species,  of  which  it  may  possibly 
be  a  minor  variety.  I  am  not  at  all  satisfied  as  to  its  claim  to 
distinctness.  0.  Octauia,  Duclos  (fig.  15),  is  usually  considered 
synonymous.

Light  olivaceous,  orange-brown,  chestnut  or  chocolate,  some- 
times nearly  black,  often  more  or  less  distinctly  banded  with 
lines  of  different  shades  of  the  same  color,  the  lighter-colored

One  of  the  commonest  and  most  variable  species  of  the  genus.

Cylindrically  oblong,  with  short,  partly  sunken  spire ;  cream- 
color  or  light  olive,  covered  with  very  numerous,  generally  minute 
and  close  zigzag  chocolate  lines  and  reticulations,  and  which 
often  form  a  subsutural  and  a  median  band  ;  interior  of  aperture 
fleshy  white  ;  columella  and  fasciole  richly  marked  with  orange- 
red.  Length,  1-75-2-25  inches. 

Mauritius,  Indian  Ocean,  Philippines,  New  Caledonia. 

The  form  is  the  same  as  in  O.  maura,  but  the  very  close,  minute 
pattern  of  coloring  and  brilliant  columella  will  distinguish  it. 
0.  evania,  Duclos  (fig.  29),  is  a  synonym,  and  0.  pindamella, 
Duclos  (fig.  33),  is  believed  to  be  a  young,  rubbed  specimen  of 
this  species.  0.  Keeni,  Marrat  (fig.  30),  partakes  of  the  characters 
of  the  next  species,  but  its  closest  relationship  is  with  0.  san- 
guinolenta.

Mauritius,  Ceylon,  Java,  Philippines,  Australia,  Polynesia. 

Reeve,  Marrat  and  Weinkauff  have  distinguished  a  number  of 
species  which  I  am  compelled  to  treat  as  synonyms,  because  the 
large  suite  of  specimens  before  me  shows  that  these  are  partly 
merely  transition  forms  and  parti}'  distinctions  based  on  size 
only.  A  rather  narrow  cylindrical  and  small  variety  has  been 
selected  for  0.  irisanx  (figs.  34-36),  and  a  larger  growth,  not  so 
cylindrical,  for  0.  zeilanica.  Lam.  (fig.  37),  with  which  0.  Phi- 
lantha,  Duclos  (fig.  38),  is  synonymous  ;  0.  galeola,  Duclos  (fig. 
39),  is  also  a  synonym. 

Yar.  CONCINNA,  Marrat.     Figs.  40-45. 

A  somewhat  smaller  shell  than  0.  irisans,  differing  principally 
in  the  interior  of  the  aperture  being  blue  or  violet.  With  this 
variet}*-  must  be  united  0.  cylindracea  (fig.  42),  0.  clara,  (fig.

The  synonyms  are  0.  nobilis,  Reeve  (fig.  48),  0.  tenebrosa,

Shell  cream-  or  flesh-color,  with  violet  or  red  zigzag  longitu- 
dinal lines,  which  are  Arery  irregular  and  rather  distant,  and 
frequently  shaded  with  orange ;  there  are  two  bluish  violet 
interrupted  bands  ;  interior  of  aperture  bright  orange-red. 

Length,  2-3  inches. 

Ordinarily  the  coloring  of  this  form  is  sufficiently  distinctive, 
so  that  I  hesitated  whether  to  give  it  specific  or  varietal  rank ; 
I  am  induced  to  favor  the  latter  because  a  number  of  specimens 
are  before  me  which  are  intermediate  between  this  and  the  last 
variety :  thus,  some  have  the  external  coloration  of  erythrostoma, 
more  or  less,  with  the  aperture  white  within,  others  are  colored 
like  tremulina  (some  of  them  uniform  dark  chocolate),  with  the 
aperture  varying  from  the  faintest  blush  to  deep  orange-red. 

The  sj'iionyms  are  0.  magnifica,  Ducros  =  0.  tremulina  (in

Cream-colored,  very  light  yellowish  or  pink,  closely  reticulated

median  band  of  darker  reticulations ;  aperture  white  or  light 
flesh-color.  Length,  2-3  inches. 

This  is  also  typically  a  very  distinct  shell,  in  its  close 
reticulated  pattern  and  in  the  bands  being  formed  of  darker 
reticulations  and  not  of  markings  confluent  into  blotches  ;  yet 
in  some  specimens  these  blotches  appear,  and  in  others  they 
spread  more  and  more  so  as  to  form  a  complete  series  from  the 
type  to  the  uniformly  chocolate-colored  shell ;  on  the  other  hand. 


OLIVA.  81 

the  reticulations  become  lighter,  verging  on  pink,  more  sparse, 
and  so  merge  into  erythrostoma.  In  describing  one  of  the 
varieties  of  this  protean  species,  Weinkauff  predicted  that  they 
would  some  day  all  "  be  placed  in  one  basket ;"  this  I  have  been 
compelled  to  do ;  but  I  have  still  retained  as  varietal  the  names 
of  the  principal  forms.

Is  a  larger,  heavier,  less  cylindrical  species  than  0.  reticularis 
of  the  West  Indies — of  which  it  is  the  West  Coast  representative: 
the  two  are  very  probably  of  common  derivation.  The  figures 
cited  by  Lamarck  well  represent  this  species — which  is  better 
known  under  the  name  of  0.  Melcliersi,  Menke.  Weinkauff 
having  restored  the  Lamarckian  name,  I  follow  him,  but  would 
otherwise  have  hesitated  to  drop  a  well-known  designation  in 
favor  of  one  which  is  in  fact  almost  unknown.  The  other 
synonyms  are  0.  oblonga,  Marr.  (fig.  63),  0.  Pindarina,  Duclos

82  OLIVA. 

Typical  examples  are  so  different  in  form  from  0.  araneosa, 
while  the  painting  is  more  nebulous,  that  they  would  readily  be 
distinguished  as  a  species,  but  intermediate  specimens  are  not 
wanting.  This  form  also  has  several  synonyms  :  0.  Timorensis, 
Duclos  (figs.  15, 76),  said  to  come  from  Timor — which  is  evidently 
an  erroneous  habitat ;  one  of  these  specimens  is  dark  colored, 
resembling  0.  Cicmingii,  Reeve  (fig.  77),  which  must  also  be 
considered  a  synonym.  0.  Mariae,  Ducros  (fig.  78),  is  a  small 
specimen  apparently,  of  this  species ;  Kuster  figures  a  larger 
shell  under  the  same  name  (PL  21,  fig.  91);  0.  obesina,  Duclos 
(fig.  79),  0.  porcea,  Marrat  (fig.  80)  and  0.  graphica,  Marr.  (fig.  81), 
are  also  to  be  placed  here ;  and  I  am  inclined  to  include  0.  truncata, 
Marr.  fig.  82),  although  it  is  said  to  come  from  the  Cape  of  Good 
Hope.  I  believe  this  habitat  to  be  erroneous ;  moreover  a 
specimen  received  from  Mr.  Marrat  is  undoubtedly  a  young 
Juliette. 
Var.  POLPASTA,  Duclos.  Fig.  83. 

Light  olive,  the  reticulations  broken  up  into  nebulous  spots 
and  occasional  arrow-head  markings ;  the  fasciculations  at  the 
sutures  spread  from  centres  at  regular  distances,  between  which 
the  shell  is  colored  yellowish  white.  Length,  1 '25-1*75  inches. 

The  form  is  much  like  var.  Juliettse,  from  which  it  is  to  be 
distinguished  by  its  smaller  size,  darker  color,  and  especially 
by  its  gay  alternation  of  white  spaces  and  fan-like  chocolate 
fasciculations  at  the  sutures — which  are  none  of  them  stable

markings;  lip  and  columella  flesh-pink.  Length,  2'5-3'5  inches.

last  species  in  form,  and  somewhat  in  exterior  coloring,  but 
may  be  distinguished  at  once  by  the  color  of  the  columella  and 
interior.

erroneously  made  a  synonym  of  0.  ispidula,  Linn.  0.  brunnea,

The  attenuation  of  the  posterior  part  of  the  shell,  distin- 
guishes this  from  0.  reticularis,w\th  which  some  of  its  varieties 
are  nevertheless  too  closely  allied ;  the  same  character  and 
greater  size  distinguish  it  from  0.  scripta,  Lam.,  which  has  very 
similar  painting.  0.  circinnata,  Marr.  (fig.  6),  is  one  of  the 
connecting  forms  referred  to  above.  0.  multiplicata,  Reeve 
(fig.  7),  is  probably  also  a  synonym.

Weinkauff  thinks  that  this  is  perhaps  a  young  0.  litterata, 
but  it  appears  to  me  to  differ  greatly  from  that  species,  both  in 
form  and  markings.  I  have  not  seen  specimens.  It  may  be  a 
variet}r  of  the  next  species.

0.  flammulata,  Lam.,  is  too  closely  allied  to  varieties  of  this 
species ;  I  have  hesitated  to  separate  them.  0.  lentiginosa, 
Reeve  (fig.  14),  is  merely  a  lighter-colored  specimen  ;  0.  esodina, 
Duel.  (fig.  15)  and  0.  Natalia,  Duel.  (fig.  16),  are  also  synonyms, 
and  I  suppose  that  0.  Sandwichensis,  Pease  (fig.  It),  may  also 
be  added.  This  is  the  0.  jaspidea,  Duclos  (not  Olivella  jaspidea, 
of  Gmelin),  under  which  name  it  is  as  generally  known  as  that 
of  Reeve.

Mr.  John  Brazier  informs  me  that  the  natives  of  New  Guinea 
place  these  shells  on  red-hot  ashes,  which  discharges  the  coloring, 
leaving  them  entirely  white ;  in  which  condition  they  are  strung 
to  make  neck-ornaments  and  girdles.  0.  caldania,  Duclos  (fig.

West  Coast  of  Africa;  Panama  to  Mazatlan. 

The  occurrence  of  this  species  numerously  at  these  two  distant 
points  has  much  bothered  conchologists ;  the  W.  African  speci- 
mens were  called  0.  hiatula,  and  the  W.  American  specimens, 
supposed  to  differ  somewhat  in  form,  have  been  distinguished  as 
0.  testacea,  Lam.  P.  P.  Carpenter,  in  his  monograph  of  Mazatlan 
shells,  acknowledges  that  specimens  from  both  localities  vary . 
considerably  in  form  and  are  in  this  respect  indistinguishable, 
but  he  attempts  to  make  differential  characters  in  the  coloring 
of  the  fasciole,  and  tinting  of  the  plications;  in  both  which 
respects  specimens  before  me,  with  undoubtedly  correct  habitats, 
completely  contravene  his  assertions ;  indeed  I  have  Mazatlan 
specimens,  received  from  Carpente'r  himself,  which  fully  exhibit 
the  features  which  he  believes  to  be  peculiar  to  the  W.  African 
form,  whilst  Gambian  specimens  show  the  W.  American  colorings. 
Figs.  60-63  show  0.  hiatula  and  fig.  65  0.  testacea,  Lam.

Dr.  Weinkauff  complains  that  his  predecessors  in  attempting 
to  separate  0.  acuminata  and  0.  subulata,  have  mistaken  them 
one  for  the  other,  and  he  has  taken  the  trouble  to  unravel  the 
intricate  synonymy,  in  order  to  thoroughly  distinguish  the  two 
species.  Having  carefully  examined  their  respective  characters 
both  in  descriptions,  figures  and  specimens,  I  am  convinced  that 
no  good  reason  exists  for  treating  them  as  distinct,  and  that 
several  additional  "  species  "  must  likewise  be  added  to  the 
synonymy.  Fig.  11  represents  0.  subulata,  Lam.,  as  defined  by 
Weinkauff;  it  appears  more  slender,  with  more  elevated  spire 
than  some  of  the  figures  representing  0.  acuminata,  but  every 
intermediate  form  may  be  selected  from  the  specimens  before 
me.  I  place  here  0.  modesta,  Reeve  (fig.  77),  a  young  shell,  0. 
annotata,  Marr.  (fig.  78),  and  0.  carita,  Marr,  (figs.  79,  80),  also

This  may  be  only  a  variety  of  0.  nebulosa,  yet  I  think  it  has 
as  good  claims  to  specific  distinction  as  most  of  the  species.

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  species ;  Marrat  has  omitted  it,

Ceylon;  Australia  f;  W.  Africa. 

This  species  has  been  confounded  with  0.  gibbosa,  Born,  and 
has  been  supposed  to  be  the  young  of  that  species ;  the  young 
gibbosa,  however,  is  much  more  inflated,  and  may  be  readily 
separated  from  nebulosa  of  the  same  size ;  the  coloring  is  the 
same  in  both  species.  0.  intricata,  Marrat  (fig.  84)  is  a 
synonym. 

O.  GIBBOSA,  Born.     PI.  36,  figs.  85-8Y. 

Shell  heavy,  gibbous,  the  columella  callous,  especially  the 
upper  part;  spire  also  callously  thickened ;  cream-colored,  body-

orange  and  chocolate  ;  fasciole  yellowish,  maculated  with  brown ; 
columella  and  interior  of  aperture  whitish. 

Length,  1-5-2-5  inches.

The  form  of  this  shell  is  nearly  intermediate  between  the  last 
and  the  next  species;  it  is  much  smaller  than  either,  yet  appears 
to  be  mature.  0.  ovata,  Marr.  (fig.  90),  is  synonymous.

The  young  shell  is  much  narrower  in  form,  the  contorted 
expanded  lip  and  heavy  columellar  callus  indicating  the  adult 
condition.  0.  aquatilis,  Reeve  (fig.  93),  and  0.  contortuplicata,

Subfamily  ANCILLARIIN^E. 

Genus  MONOPIYGMA,  Lea. 

Several  systematists  have  confounded  this  genus  with  Mon- 
optygma,  Gray  —  an  entirely  different  group.  The  type,  although 
a  very  small  shell,  perfectly  exhibits  the  generic  characters,  but 
Lea's  second  species  belongs  to  Actaeonidae.  Chilotygma,  H. 
and  A.  Adams,  must,  according  to  the  description,  become  a 
synonym  ;  but  it  may  well  be  doubted  whether  its  only  species 
and  specimen  (therefore  the  only  recent  species  of  Monoptygma), 
is  not  a  monstrosity.

92  ANCILLARY  A. 

(Jeriu*  ANCILLARIA,   Lain. 

The  animal  of  Ancillaria  is  voluminous,  covering  the  entire 
shell  with  the  exception  of  the  spire.  The  head,  which  is 
entirely  concealed  by  the  reflected  portions  of  the  foot,  consists 
of  a  short  cylindrical,  inflated,  annulated  proboscis,  above  which 
is  a  semilunar  veil  formed  by  the  dilatation  and  union  of  the 
tentacles ;  there  is  no  indication  of  eyes.  The  mantle  is  pro- 
duced anteriorly  into  a  long  siphon.  The  foot  is  large  and 
bursiform,  the  side-edges  being  greatly  extended  and  reflected 
over  the  shell,  meeting  in  the  middle  on  the  back.  As  in  Oliva, 
it  is  deeply  fissured  anteriorly,  forming  a  semilunar  disk  before 
the  head,  divided  by  a  deep  longitudinal  groove  into  two  lateral, 
triangular  lobes,  acuminated  transversely ;  posteriorly  it  is 
bilobed,  and  is  either  without  an  operculum,  or  is  provided  with 
a  thin,  horny  unguiform  one,  with  apical  nucleus,  semilunar 
growth-lines,  and  an  oval  muscular  impression. 

The  Ancillariae  resemble  the  Olives  in  their  habits,  dwelling 
among  the  smooth  sands  in  which  they  frequently  bury  them- 
selves. They  crawl  with  a  quick,  sliding  motion,  and  as  they 
glide  briskly  along,  the  shell  is  enveloped  in  the  alar  expansions 
of  the  foot,  which  overlap  each  other  slightly  in  the  middle,  and 
extending  considerably  beyond  the  spire,  form  posteriorly  a 
loose,  open  sack ;  anterior  to  these  lobes  the  tubular  cylindrical 
siphon  is  visible,  directed  upwards  and  backwards,  and  even 
laid  flat  upon  the  back. 

The  AncillarijB  have  been  monographed  by  Sowerby  in  the 
Thesaurus  Conchyliorum,  b}r  Reeve  in  Conchologia  Iconica, 
and  by  Weinkauff  in  Kiister's  Conchylien  Cabinet.  The  last 
authority  enumerates  forty-six  species,  some  of  which  he  con- 
siders doubtful.  A  very  careful  consideration  of  these  forms 
has  induced  me  to  reduce  the  number  of  species  considerably. 
They  are  tropical  animals,  the  typical  group  inhabiting  the  Red 
Sea,  Indian  Ocean,  Australia,  Japan,  etc. ;  one  species  only 
occurring  in  American  waters,  in  the  Caribbean  province.  The 
earliest  fossils  are  from  the  eocene  strata  of  the  United  States 
and  Europe ;  they  are  few  in  number,  and  the  genus,  never 
numerous  in  species,  appears  to  have  reached  its  maximum 
development  at  the  present  time. 

Ancillaria  is,  through  Olivancellaria,  very  closely  connected 


t 
ANCILLARIA.  93 

with  the  Olives,  and  in  its  frequently  horned  outer  lip  it  also 
reminds  one  of  Pseudoliva,  and  Eburna  (Zemira)  australis. 

I  have  merged  in  Ancillaria  several  subgeneric  groups  of  H. 
and  A.  Adams  and  others,  which  do  not  appear  to  me  to  possess 
substantial  distinctive  characters. 

A.  CINNAMOMEA,  Lam.     PL  37,  figs.  2-17. 

Yellowish  white,  with  obscure  revolving  bands  and  longitudinal 
strigations  of  light  reddish  brown,  or  without  markings,  and 
ranging  from  flesh-color  to  cinnamon  and  dark  chocolate ; 
occasionally  a  revolving  sutaus  terminates  in  a  slight  horn  on 
the  outer  lip  ;  the  folded  columella  is  white,  the  interior  of  the 
aperture  nearly  corresponding  with  the  outer  surface  in  color. 

Length,  1-1-25  inches. 

Red  Sea,  Persian  Gulf,  Zanzibar. 

I  unite  here  several  so-called  species.  A.  cinnamomea  is  not 
quite  adult,  and  more  frequently  exhibits  the  lip-tooth  than  the 
adult,  heavily-callused  A..ventricosa,  Lam.  (fig.  3).  A.  variegata, 
Sowb.  (fig.  4),  is  the  light,  banded  form  described  above,  and  A. 
fulva,  Swn.  (fig.  5)  has  similar  painting.  Other  synonyms  are  : 
A.  albifasciata,  Swn.  (fig.  6  ,  A.  albisulcata,  Sowb.  (fig.  7),  in 
which  the  impressed  groove  is  white,  a  character  without 
constancy,  A.  achatina,  Kiener  (fig.  8),  A.  striolata,  Sowb.  (fig. 
9N,  a  juvenile,  A.  castanea,  Sowb.  (fig.  10\  A.  ovalis,  Sowb.  (fig. 
11),  another  juvenile,  A.  Desliayesii,  A.  Ad.  (fig.  12),  A.  crassa, 
Sowb.  (fig.  13),  A.  sarda,  Reeve  (fig.  14),  A.  contum,  Reeve  (fig. 
15),  apparently  a  worn  specimen,  A.  eburnea,  Desh.  (fig.  16),  A. 
Tronsoni,  Sowb.  (fig.  17). 

A.  ACUMINATA,  Sowb.     PL  37,  figs.  18-20. 

Yellowish  brown,  lighter  at  the  sutures  and  on  the  border  of 
the  fasciole,  the  latter  being  darker  brown,  columella  white. 

Length,  1 '25-1 '5  inches. 

Red  Sea,  Zanzibar. 

The  narrower  form  is  the  only,  and  perhaps  not   sufficient 
distinction  between  this  and  the  preceding  species.    A.  lineolata, 
•    A.  Ad.   (fig.  19),  and   probably  A.  oryza.  Reeve  (fig.  20),  are 
synonyms. 

A.  MARMORATA,  Reeve.     PL  2,  figs.  21,  22. 

Whitish,  faintly  streaked  and  mottled  with  fulvous  flesh-color, 


94  ANC1LLARTA. 

brown-tinged  at  the  suture  and  above  the  fasciole,  columellar 

plaits  brown.     Length,  '75  inch. 

Habitat  unknown. 

A.  fasciata,  Reeve  (fig.  22),  appears  to  be  the  same  species.  It 
may  be  the  young  of  A.  marginata,  Lam.,  from  which  the  brown 
columella  appears  to  be  the  principal  distinctive  character. 

37 
A.  AMPLA,  Gmelin.     PI.  #,  figs.  23,  24. 

Cylindrically  oblong,  acuminated  abovet  inflated  below,  rather 
thin ;  white,  often  orange-tinted  on  the  spire. 
Length,  1-1*5  inches. 

Red  Sea,  Ceylon,  Mauritius,  Philippines. 

A.  cylindrica,  Sowb.  (fig.  24),  is  the  young. 

A.  RUBIGINOSA,  Swainson.     PL  37,  fig.  25 ;  PI.  38,  figs.  26,  27. 

Cinnamon-brown,  with  an  enameled  lighter  band  at  the  suture, 
and  a  shallow  impressed  one  above  the  fasciole. 

Length,  2-2'5  inches. 

Japan,  China,  Malacca,  Madagascar. 

A.  mamillata,  Hinds  (fig.  26),  and  A.  albo-callosa,  Lischke  (fig. 
27),  are  synonyms. 

A.  AUSTRALIS,  Sowb.     PI.  38,  figs.  28-33. 

Lead-color  or  violet-brown,  spire  and  upper  portion  of  body- 
whorl,  as  well  as  the  fasciole  enveloped  in  a  yellowish  callus, 
marbled  with  chestnut.  Length,  '75-1-75  inches. 

Australia,  Neio  Zealand,  Tasmania,  Cape. 

This  is  a  shorter  species  than  A.  rubiginosa;  yet  I  separate  it 
with  hesitation.  A.  pyramidalis,  Reeve  (fig.  29),  and  A.  tricolor, 
Gray  (fig.  30),  a  juvenile,  A.  mucronata,  Sowb.  (fig.  31),  probably, 
and  possibly  A.  obtusa,  Swains,  (figs.  32,  33),  from  the  Cape  of 
Good  Hope,  are  synonyms. 

A.  MONTROUZIERI,  Souverbie.     PI.  38,  fig.  34. 

Pinkish  white,  or  light  fawn-color,  the  spire  and  an  upper 
band  of  the  body-whorl  invested  with  a  thick  flesh-colored  or 
slightly  brownish  callus ;  sometimes  the  spire  and  fasciole  are 
pure  white ;  operculum  oblong,  rather  large  and  thin. 

Length,  1-1-5  inches. 

New   C(ile<lnnia. 


ANCILLARIA.  95 

A.  ANGUSTATA,  Sowb.     PI.  38,  fig.  35. 

Narrowly  cylindrical,  transparent  fawn-color,  callosity  and 
fasciole  shining  orange-brown,  edged  with  white.  Length,  12  mill. 

China. 

Possibly  the  young  of  A.  rubiginosa,  Sw.,  or  of  a  similar 
species. 

A.  BULLIOIDES,  Reeve.     PL  38,  fig.  36. 

Delicate  fawn-color,  callosity  broad,  opaque,  white. 

Length,  28  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Perhaps  a  young  shell  of  A.  rubiginosa.  The  type  specimen 
only  is  known,  and  its  peculiarly  long  spire  might  be  an  indi- 
vidual variation  of  growth. 

A.  CINGULATA,  Sowb.     PI.  38,  figs.  3T,  38. 

Shell  thin,  whitish,  yellowish  or  pale  cinnamon-color,  with  a 
white  sutural  band,  and  a  revolving  brown  band  above  and  on 

the  fasciole.     Length,  2-2'5  inches. 

JV.  Australia,  China  ? 

Distinguished  from  A.  rubiginosa  by  its  thin  substance  and 
inferior  dark  band.  0.  similis,  Sowb.  (fig.  38),  is  probably  a 
faded  variety.  * 

A.  TANKERVILLET,  Swainson.     PL  38,  fig.  39  ;  PL  39,  fig.  40. 

Fusiformly  oblong,  moderately  ventricose,  yellowish  white  to 
orange-yellow,  darker  about  the  sutures  and  on  the  fasciole. 

Length,  2'25-3*75  inches. 

West  Indies. 

The  only  species  inhabiting  the  Western  Hemisphere.  I  am 
not  able  to  separate  0.  Vernedei,  Sowb.  (fig.  40),  described  from 
a  single  specimen,  and  doubtfully  referred  to  China  Seas  as  its 
habitat.  Specimens  of  A.  Tankervillei  before  me  agree  exactly 
with  the  figure  of  Vernedei,  except  that  the  latter  is  larger. 

A.  SINENSIS,  Sowb.     PL  39,  figs.  41-43. 

Transparent  white,  the  callosity  opaque  white.  Length,  *8  inch. 

Japan,  China,  Australia. 

A  juvenile  shell,  and  ver}T  probably  equivalent  to  A.  rubiginosa, 
Swn.  A.  Nova-Zelandica,  Sowb.  (fig.  42),  is  a  synonym,  and  I 
suppose  that  A.  inornata,  E.  A.  Smith  (fig.  43),  may  also  be 
placed  here. 


96  ANOLACIA,    DIPSACCUS. 

A.  MARGINATA,  Lam.     PL  39,  figs.  44-48. 

Yellowish  or  gray,  a  white  band  below  the  sutures,  maculated 
with  orange-brown,  a  row  of  maculations  above,  and  another  on 

the  fasciole.     Length,  1 -5-1 '75  inches. 

Australia,  Tasmania. 

A.  monilifera,  Reeve  (fig.  45),  A,  lineata,  Kiener  (fig.  46),  A. 
oblonga,  Sowb.  (fig.  47)  and  A.  obesa,  Sowb.  (fig.  48),  are  all 
young  shells  of  A.  marginaia,  as  the  specimens  before  me  exhibit 
all  these  variations  in  form.  The  last-named  is  said  to  occur 
also  at  the  Cape  of  Good  Hope. 

A.  ELONGATA,  Gray.     PL  39,  fig.  49. 

Thin,  white,  sutural  band  ivory-white,  columella  not  plaited. 

Length,  2*25  inches. 

Torres  Straits,  N.  Australia. 

A.  DIMIDIATA,  Sowb.     PL  39,  fig.  50. 

Rather  thin,  transparent  white,  sutural  band,  which  is  very 

broad,  opaque  white.     Length,  -9  inch. 

Red  Sea. 

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  species  ;  it  looks  as  though  it 
might  be  the  young  of  A.  elongata,  Gray. 

C~~          Subgenus  Anolacia,  Gray. 

A.  MAURITIAN  A,  Sowb.     PL  39,  figs.  51-53. 

Shell  ovate,  thin,  spire  depressed,  bod3Mvhorl  shouldered, 
aperture  wide,  columella  scarcely  plaited,  outer  surface  closely 
but  lightly  covered  with  revolving  striae ;  yellowish  white  to 
orange-brown.  Length,  1 '75-2*25  inches. 

Madagascar,  Mauritius,  Australia. 

This  is  the  A.  torosa,  Meuschen,  according  to  Sowerby,  a  name 
under  which  it  is  quite  as  well  known  as  the  one  I  have  adopted. 
A.  scaphella,  Sowb.  (fig.  52),  and  A.  aperta,  Sowb.  (fig.  53),  are 
miniature  shells  of  this  species. 

Subgenus  Dipsaccus,  Klein. 
A.  GLABRATA,  Linn.     PL  39,  fig.  54. 

Yellowish  white  to  orange,  white-bordered  at  the  sutures  and 
on  the  supra-fasciolar  groove,  columella  and  callus  white. 

Length,  2-3  inches. 

West  Indies. 


HARP  A.  97 

A.  LIENARDI,  Bernard!.     PL  39,  figs.  55,  56. 

Light  3^ellow  to  deep  orange,  basal  groove  white ;  columelhi, 
callus  and  interior  white.  Length,  1*25-2  inches. ' 

Pernambuco,  Brazil. 

Proportionally  much  wider,  with  shorter  spire  than  A.  glabrata, 
yet  I  suspect  that  it  is  a  mere  variety  of  that  species'. 

A.  BALTEATA,  Swfiinsoii.     PI.  39,  fig.  57. 

Yellowish  white  to  orange-yellow,  whorls  angularly  belted 
around  the  upper  part,  basal  groove  broad,  whitish. 

Length,  1-5-2  inches. 

Ceylon. 

The  locality  appears  to  be  undoubted,  and  all  the  specimens 
I  have  seen  are  alike,  yet  it  seems  to  be  abnormal  in  -its  posterior 
angulation,  and  to  resemble  otherwise  a  stunted  A.  ylabrata. 

Subfamily  HAllPIN.E. 
Genus  HARPA,  Lam. 

The  animals  of  Harpa  have  a  very  large  foot,  with  the  front 
crescent-shaped,  and  divided  by  deep  lateral  fissures  from  the 
posterior  part.  Unable  to  withdraw  completely  within  their 
shell,  they  are  said,  when  irritated,  to  have  the  power  of  spon- 
taneously detaching  a  portion  of  this  foot.  They  are  variegated 
with  beautiful  colors,  and  crawl  with  vivacity.  Tropical,  inhabit- 
ing Mauritius,  Philippines,  Ceylon,  Polynesia,  West  Coast  of 
America,  but  unknown  on  the  tropical  Atlantic  coasts  of 
America. 

There  are  a  few  fossil  species.     Eocene, . 

Harpa  has  been  monographed  by  Reeve,  Kiener,  Sowerby  and 
recently  by  Dr.  Aug.  Sutor.  The  latter  enumerates  sixteen 
species,  which  I  have  reduced  to  nine.  Like  Strombus,  Harpa 
appears  to  be  a  completed  genus,  no  new  forms  rewarding  the 
industry  of  modern  investigators  and  explorers. 

H.  COSTATA,  Linn.     PI.  40,  fig.  58. 

Shell  with  thirty  or  more  close-set  ribs,  pointed  at  the  top; 
white,  zoned  with  flesh-color  or  light  chestnut ;  apex  rose-tinted ;

Shell  with  about  twelve  to  fifteen  rather  broadly-flattened  ribs 
which  are  crossed  by  a  number  of  rather  broad  light-chestnut 
revolving  bands,  separated  by  narrow  white  bands;  interstices 
of  the  ribs  Wide,  marked  with  chestnut  and  white  arranged  in 
semicircles,  or  festooned  ;  aperture  pinkish  or  yellowish  white 
within,  showing  the  exterior  painting  ;  columetta  blotched  with 
chocolate.  Length,  2-5-3-5  inches.

Spire  more  elevated  and  shoulder  of  body-whorl  more  sloping 
than  in  the  preceding  species  ;  the  intercostal  paint  ing  is  simi- 
larly festooned,  but  usually  not  so  distinctly,  the  revolving 
bands  on  the  ribs  are  defined  either  on  the  shoulder  only,  or 
occasionally  elsewhere,  or  throughout  by  dark  chocolate  borders. 

Length,  2-5-3-5  inches. 

ImUxn  Ocf.tni.,  r/u!/p/>i)ic*,  Mnni'itius. 

Dr.  Sutor,  as  well  as  Sowerby  and  Reeve  have  attempted  to 
distinguish  other  species  here,  by  characters  that  are  poor 
enough  even  in  their  figures,  but  which  possess  no  claims  what- 
ever when  a  large  suite  of  specimens  are  examined  ;  it  is  even 
dillicult  in  some  cases  to  separate  this  shell  from  //.  ri'Hfriroxd. 
In  //.  (irln-uldris.  Lam.  (fig.  (J2>,  the  dark  bands  are  well  defined

Fischer  (figs.  7(5,  7*7),  are  synonyms.  Dr.  Sutor  attempts  to 
distinguish  these  species,  but  his  distinctive  characters  of 
coloring  and  sculpture  are  individual  only,  and  not  varietal  or 
specific. 

Family  COLUMBELLID^E. 

Shell  small,  usually  covered  by  an  epidermis,  ovate  or  oblong, 
sometimes  Strombiform,  anteriorly  notched  or  produced  into  a 
short  canal,  which  is  open  ;  inner  lip  anteriorly  tubercled,  outer 
lip  incurved  in  the  middle,  and  usually  thickened  and  crenulated 
on  its  inner  margin.  Animal :  head  elongated  ;  eyes  near  the 
outer  bases  of  the  tentacles ;  foot  anteriorly  produced.  Oper- 
culum  corneous;  lamellar,  with  the  nucleus  basal  or  near  the 
centre  of  the  outer  margin.  The  lingual  dentition  of  the  group 
is  peculiar  and  readily  distinguishable  from  that  of  all  other 
Gastropods  ;  its  features  persist  with  but  little  variation  of  detail 
through  all  the  subdivisions  of  the  family  of  which  examples 
have  been  examined,  except  Engina.  In  the  section  Amycla, 
Messrs.  H.  and  A.  Adams  have  included  species  such  as  A. 
corniculum,  Olivi,  which  are  true  Nassse,  and  the  dentition  of 
this  species  has  been  hastily  assumed  to  be  that  of  the  whole 
group  of  Amycla.  Other  species,  placed  by  H.  and  A.  Adams 
in  the  group  Engina,  undoubtedly  belong  to  the  group  Sistruni 
in  Ricinula  (see  Manual,  ii).  The  lingual  of  a  single  but  typical 
species  of  Engina  has  been  figured  by  Morch  (Manual,  vol.  iii, 
t.  27,  f.  36);  it  differs  greatly  from  the  Columbellifonn  type  of 
dentition,  and  the  genus  has  accordingly  been  classified  by 
Troschel  in  Photinre.  The  shell  of  Engina  is  distinctly  Colinn- 
belloid,  however,  and  the  difference  of  dentition  need  not  deter 
us  from  placing  it  in  Columbellidae  since  in  Marginella  glabclla 
(this  vol.,  p.  6),  distinct  types  of  dentition  occur  in  the  same 
species. 

A  number  of  classifications  of  the  species  of  Oolumbellidae 
have  been  proposed.  II.  and  A.  Adams  1m ye  adopted  several 
groups  first  characterized  by  Swainson,  and  have  instituted  some 
others  ;  they  are  mostly  of  little  systematic  value,  being  founded 
on  slight  differences  in  the  form,  etc.,  of  the  shell — differences 
which  do  not  persist  throughout  all  the  species  assigned  to  them 


COLUMBELLID^E.  101 

respectively.  On  the  contrary,  it  is  only  necessary  to  examine 
a  large  series  of  these  species  to  become  convinced  that  in  most 
cases  these  groups  are  connected  by  intermediate  forms.  Whilst 
I  cannot  adopt  them  as  subgenera  on  account  of  this  want  of 
persistence  of  distinctive  characters,  yet  such  is  the  multiplicity 
of  species  that  retained  as  names  of  groups  they  may  still  serve 
n  useful  purpose.  Bellardi*  has  divided  the  fossil  Columbellas 
of  Piedmont  into  groups  designated  as  Nassiform,  Mitriform, 
Fusiform,  etc.,  but  I  think  the  named  groups  of  Messrs.  Adams 
preferable.  Mo'rchf  proposes  the  following  classification  :• — 

1.  PYGM^BA,  Humphrey. 

Subgenera,  1.  NITIDELLA,  Swn.    2.  ALIA,  Ad. 

2.  PYRENE,  Bolten. 

Subgenera,  1.  ATILIA,  Ad.     2.  PYRENE,  Bolt.     3.  CONELLA,  Swn. 
4.  DIBAPHUS,  Phil.  (       IMitridae). 

3.  MlTRELLA,   RisSO. 

Subgenera,  t.  ASPYRIS,  Ad.  2.  ANACHIS,  Ad.  3.  STROMBINA,  Morch. 

He  excludes  Engina,  on  account  of  the  dentition.  The  types 
of  Pygnuea,  cited  by  him  are  typical  species  of  Columbella,  and 
therefore  Pygma?a  may  be  considered  a  synonym 

I  am  only  able  to  recognize  a  few  genera,  of  which  the  principal 
are  Columbella,  Engina  and  Columbellina — the  latter  with  some 
doubt  as  to  its  characters  being  of  generic  value  ;  all  the  other 
groups  that  have  been  proposed  I  place  as  Sections. 

The  tamil}T  has  been  monographed  by  Duclos,  in  Chemvs 
Illustrations  Conchyliologiques  ;  by  Kiener,  Coquilles  Vivantes  ; 
by  Sowerby,  Thesaurus  Conchyliorum,  vol.  1, 1847  ;  and  by  Reeve, 
Conchologia  Iconica,  1859.  Since  the  latter  date  no  revision  or 
catalogue  of  the  species  has  appeared,  whilst  the  number  of 
specific  names  has  increased  three  times,  or  from  250  to  about 
750  nominal  species.  A  large  proportion  of  these  five  hundred 
additional  descriptions  are  unaccompanied  by  figures,  so  that 
the  labor  of  arranging  the  mass  of  material  has  been  immense. 
1  cannot  hope  to  have  determined  the  synonymy  correctly  in  all 
cases:  I  have  done  the  best  I  could  with  the  material  at  hand.

(it-mis  COLUMBELLA,  Lamarck. 

These?  beautiful  little  mollusks,  very  numerous  in  species  ami 
in  individuals,  are  widely  distributed,  occurring  in  all  parts  of 
the  world,  both  in  cold  and  torrid  elimates;  although  most 
numerous  in  tropical  waters.  They  are  found  crawling  on  the 
surface  of  sand-Hats  in  shallow  water,  or  living-  on  stony 
beaches,  where,  they  sometimes  con<>Te<>-:it(>  about  and  under

Section  1.  Columbella  (fypical). 

Shell  strombiform,  smooth,  with  short  spire. 
C.  STROMBIFORM  is,  Lam.     PI.  42,  figs.  5-10. 

Shell  strombiform,  the  body-whorl  much  swollen  around  the 
upper  part  and  somewhat  produced  at  the  posterior  end  of  the 
aperture;  chestnut-color,  with  the  spire  and  middle  and  lower 
portion  of  the  body-whorl  minutely  white-spotted  ;  sometimes 
the  spots  coalesce  into  zigzag  white  markings  ;  there  are  also 
usually  a  few  irregular  large  white  spots  on  the  shoulder  or 
middle  of  the  body-whorl ;  interior  usually  white,  sometimes 
orange-tinted  ;  epidermis  thick,  shaggy,  longitudinally  striated, 
frequently  decussated  posteriorly  or  throughout  by  revolving 
striae  ;  operculum  very  variable  in  form,  the  initial  point  usually 
terminal  and  basal  but  occasionally  even  subcentral,  or  marginal 
at  the  centre  of  its  length.  Length,  '83—1*4  inches. 

West  Coast  of  Central  America  to  Mazatlan;  Gulf  of  California. 

With  this  species  is  to  be  united  C. major,  Sowerby  (figs.  (J-S), 
which  Carpenter  and  others  have  suspected  to  be  a  variety,  having 
dots  instead  of  the  zigzag  white  markings  and  the  spiral  sculpture 
of  the  epidermis  on  the  shoulder  only,  instead  of  all  over;  neither 
these,  nor  the  other  inferior  distinctive  characters  given,  hold 
good  when  a  large  series  of  specimens  is  examined.  Fig.  8 
represents  a  smaller,  but  adult  shell ;  it  is  a  minor  race,  which, 
as  in  so  many  of  the  species  of  mollusks  usually  accompanies 
the  normal-sized  individuals.  Other  synonyms  are  C.  gibbosa, 
Duclos  (tig.  9),  C.  Bridgesi,  Reeve  (tig.  10),  not  full  grown. 

C.  PAYTENSIS,  Lesson.     PL  42,  figs.  11-14. 

Whorls  broadly  channeled  below  the  sutures:  chestnut-brown, 
minutely  dotted  with  white  throughout.  Length,  1-1  '15  inches. 

Payta,  Peru;  Chili. 

This  may  possibly  be  a  variety  only,  of  the  preceding  species  ; 
the  sutural  channel  is  strongly  marked,  however,  in  the  numerous 
specimens  before  me.  G.  spurca,  Sowb.,  C.  runtira,  Sowb. 
Genera  of  Shells  (fig.  14),  and  C.  Paytalida,  Duclos  (fig.  13),  are 
synonyms.

C.  CA8TANEA,  Sowb.       PI.  42,  fig.   15. 

Shell  with  n.  shallow  channel  around  the  suture,  defined  by  an 
angled  or  almost  ribbed  shoulder;  lower  half  of  body-whorl 
contracted  ;  chestnut-brown,  spotted  with  white,  aperture  tinged 
with  orange  within.  Length,  -85  inch. 

Galapagos  Is.;  W.  Coast  of  Central  America. 

1  have  considerable  doubt  whether  this  is  not  a  variety  only 
of  the  preceding  species ;  it  is  considerably  smaller,  more 
contracted,  with  more  defined  shoulder,  and  colored  interior. 

(\  FASCIATA,  Sowb.     PI.  42,  figs.  16-18. 

Shell  large  and  thick,  oval,  slightly  shouldered  ;  brown,  spotted 
with  white,  the  spots  sometimes  merging  into  irregular  zigzag 
longitudinal  markings,  occasionally  obscurely  white-banded  at 
the  suture  and  periphery ;  teeth  of  cblnmella  and  outer  lip 
sometimes  tinted  with  red.  Length,  1'25  inches. 

Java. 

This  species  is  not  so  gibbous  as  those  which  precede  it,  and 
has  heavier  teeth  ;  the  spire  is  also  more  convexly  elevated.      C. 
Javacensis,  Gaskoin  (fig.  18),  is  probably  a  faded  specimen  of 
fasciata. 
C.  FUSCATA,  Sowb.     PI.  42,  figs.  19-21. 

Shell  smooth,  oval ;  chestnut-dotted  and  spotted  irregularly 
with  white,  and  with  white,  triangular  sutural  markings,  con- 
tinued on  the  spire;  epidermis  light  olive,  very  thin,  smooth, 
translucent;  aperture  light  purple.  Length,  *75-'9  inch.

which  are  usually  arranged  as  broad  zigzag  markings  on  the 
shoulder,  and  similar  ones  at  the  base  of  the  body-whorl,  the 
latter  often  coalescing  to  cover  the  entire  basal  portion  of  the

tudinally maculated  with  orange  or  chocolate  and  while,  and 
with  or  without  chocolate  articulations  forming  one  or  two  bands  ; 
aperture  white  or  slightly  yellowish.  Length,  MJ-'S  inch. 

West  Jmlit'x,  Florida. 

A  common  species,  very  variable  in  painting,  but,  pretty  con- 
stant in  form  and  sculpture;  it  occurs  on  sandy  bottoms  in  from 
two  to  four  feet  water.  The  synonyms  are  numerous,  including 
a  large,  coarsely  ribbed  form,  called  by  Sowerby  (•'.  rndix  (fig. 
31).  Keeve  has  figured  this  form  under  the  name  of  C.  Peleei, 
Kiener,  and  has  given  for  locality  the  Philippine  Islands — 
undoubtedly  an  error.  The  true  C.  Peleei,  Kiener  (fig.  32),  is,  on 


COLUMBELLA.  10 1 

the  contrary,  a  rather  small  form,  thin,  but  with  rugose  growth- 
lines  decussating  the  surface — a  not  unusual  variety.  Other 
synonyms  are  C.  zulmis,  Duclos  (fig.  33),  G.  affinis,  Risso,  G. 
incubitantes,  Martini,  G.  Gualteriana,  Risso? 

C.  DYSONI,  Reeve.     PL  44,  fig.  57. 

Shell  fusiformly  conical,  yellowish  white,  painted  with  waved 
stripes  of  red-brown  spots,  spire  short,  sharp,  whorls  strongly 
spirally  grooved  throughout;  aperture  elongated,  lip  flatly 
thickened,  denticulated  within.  Length,  16  mill. 

Honduras  (Dyson). 

I  think  this  will  prove  to  be  a  G.  mercatoria,  of  somewhat 
unusual  form  and  not  adult. 

C.  RUSTICA,  Linn.     PI.  43,  tigs.  34-49;  PL  44,  figs.  50-56. 

Shell  variable  in  shape,  sometimes  short,  with  broad  body- 
whorl,  sometimes  narrower,  with  spire  and  lower  part  of  body- 
whorl  produced;  smooth,  or  slightly  spirally  striated ;  white  to 
orange-color,  stained  with  chestnut  or  chocolate,  forming  spots, 
longitudinal  zigzags  :md  blotches,  frequently  light  banded  and 
fasciculated  with  chestnut  next  below  the  -suture;  lip  white, 
yellowish  or  flesh-color,  the  interstices  of  the  dent iculat ions 
chocolate-color.  Length,  '5-1 '1  inches. 

West  Indies,   West  Africa,  Gape  Verd  Is.,  Southern  Europe, 

Mediterranean  Sea. 

One  of  the  most  variable  of  shells.  The  shorter,  broad  forms 
are  often  very  close  in  shape  and  coloring  to  G.  mercatoria,  but 
are  always  distinguishable  by  the  smooth  surface,  and  the  dark 
interstices  of  the  lip-teeth. 

The  synonymy  is  enormous,  including:  G.  sponyiarum,  Duclos

that  G.  xiphiteUu,  Duclos  (fig.  55),  and  G.  .ripliitella,  Reeve  (fig.

This  species  has  not  been  described  ;  there  are  only  the  figures 
and  name  in  Duclos'  monograph.  It  resembles  the  stouter,  short 
forms  of  G.  rustica,  somewhat,  but  is  a  larger  shell. 

C.  MARMOREA,  Brasilia. 

Shell  small,  ovately  subturbinate,  smooth,  shining,  with 
flattened  whorls ;  aperture  dilated  at  the  base,  sublinear,  longer 
than  the  spire;  lip  but  little  thickened  within,  nodulose ;  colu- 
mella  with  two  tubercles;  color  marbled  with  fulvous  and  white, 
with  a  white,  maculated  band  at  the  suture.

very  thin,  transparent  yellowish  epidermis;  usually  very  dark 
chocolate,  nearly  black,  sometimes  chestnut,  and  marked  by  a

Figured  and  named  but  not  described  by  Duclos.  It  appears 
to  be  a  faded  and  discolored  shell;  not  unlikely  a  C  .  pardalina. 
G.  virc/inea,  Duclos  (fig.  19),  is  very  probably  a  still  more  faded 
individual  of  the  same  species. 

C.  TURTURINA,  Lain.     PL  45,  figs.  80-82. 

Shell  short  and  thick,  subglobose,  the  shoulder  of  the  body-

with  clouds  or  zigzags  of  yellowish  brown  ;  columella  and  teeth 
of  outer  lip  often  stained  with  violet.  Length,  -5-'f)5  inch.

The  yellowish  markings  are  often  absent.      G.  Sand  wichen  sis  ^

C.  SULCATA,  Duclos.     PI.  45,  fig.  83. 

This  is  evidently  an  abnormal  growth,  and  its  character,  a 
sulcation  on  the  shoulder,  will  be  sought  in  vain  among  shells  in 
normal  condition.  It  is  impossible  to  identify  it  with  certainty. 
The  color  is  a  shading  of  flesh-color  and  light  yellow.

110  COLUMBELLA. 

C.  VERSICOLOR,  Sowerby.     PI.  45,  figs.  84-96. 

Shell  ovate,  with  moderate  spire,  the  whorls  swollen  at  the 
shoulder,  beneath  which  the  body-whorl  is  more  or  less  con- 
stricted, .shoulder  sometimes  sparsely,  obsoletely  tuberculated  ; 
yellowish, white,  with  zigzag  chestnut  or  chocolate  close  longitu- 
dinal niarkyigs,  often  shaded  with  white ;  on  the  middle  of  the 
body-whorl  these  markings  are  often  broken  up  into  numerous 
small  punctations  ;  aperture  white  within  ;  columella  tuberculate, 
with  two  prominent  teeth  in  the  middle.  Length, -5-'75  inch. 
Indian  Ocean;  Japan;  Philippines;  Australia;  Polynesia. 

The  oldest  name  for  this  species  is  C.  scripta,  Lam.,  but 
Linnaeus  had  previously  used  this  name  for  a  well-recognized 
Mediterranean  species.  C.  bidentata,  Menke  (fig.  87),  is  also  a 
synonym,  and  ver}T  probably  C.  variegata,  Menke.  The  latter 
name  would  have  priority  if  it  could  be  satisfactorily  identified. 
The  synonymy  will  include  C.  araneosa,  Kiener  (fig.  88),  C. 
coronata,  Duclos  (fig.  89),  C.  athadona,  Duclos  (figs.  90,  91),  C.

stria1;  shoulder  tuberculated ;  with  longitudinal  ribs  more  or  less 
prominent,  sometimes  extending  the  entire  length  of  the  shell, 
usually  becoming  obsolete  towards  the  middle,  and  occasionally 
not  developed  at  all.  Color,  white  and  chestnut  or  chocolate  in 
alternate  revolving  bands,  the  latter  usually  broken  up  into  short 
irregular  longitudinal  markings;  sometimes  the  bands  are  not 
present,  and  the  entire  shell  is  covered  witli  alternate  chestnut 
and  white  zigzag  longitudinal  stripes;  base  of  the  colnmella 
stained  dark  chocolate;  aperture  white  within.

Mazatlan. 

This  species,  described  twenty-live  years  ago,  but  never  figured, 
remains  unrecognized.  Carpenter,  who  so  thoroughly  studied 
the  mollusca  of  Mazatlan,  and  of  the  West  Coast  of  North 
America,  could  make  nothing  of  it.  Philippi  compares  it  with 
C.  azora,  Duclos,  which,  he  says,  it  resembles  in  form  but  differs 
in  being  one- instead  of  three-banded.

zigzag  lines,  often  broken  up  into  spots  and  maculations  ;  the 
suture  is  often  maculated  with  white,  and  there  is  frequently  a 
band  of  chocolate  spots  on  the  periphery,  and  visible  on  the 

spire-whorls.     Length,  *t-'8  inch. 

West  Indies. 

There  are  two  well-marked  types  of  coloration  in  this  common 
species,  with  intermediate  stages  :  in  one,  the  shell  is  covered 
by  alternate  irregular  longitudinal  markings  of  white  and 
chestnut,  the  suture  is  not  maculated,  there  is  no  band  on  the 
periphery ;  in  the  other,  the  longitudinal  lines  are  so  close  and 
fine  as  to  nearly  cover  the  shell  with  a  chestnut-color,  and  are 
often  broken  up  into  spots  and  maculations ;  upon  this  back- 
ground are  white  inaculations  at  the  suture,  and  a  row  of  chocolate 
spots  on  the  periphery.  The  synonyms  are  C.  alaperdicis, 
Reeve  (fig.  18),  C.  concinna,  Sowb.  (fig.  19),  and  possibly  (7. 
faleonta  (fig.  20),  and  C.  helvia  (fig.  21),  Duclos — the  two  last

frequently  similarly  colored.  Length,  7*5-10  mill. 

Cape  St  Lucas,  L.  Gal.  to  Sitki'i. 

The  above  is  the  description  of  the  larger,  smooth,  northern 
variety,  called  by  Gould  C.  gattsapata  (lig.  37):  these  are  not 
carinate,  but  pass  by  imperceptible  stages  into  the  smaller  C. 
Californiana,  Gaskoin,  the  subcarinate  C.  Hindsii,  Reeve  (fig. 
38),  the  stumpy,  strongly  carinate  C.  carinata,  (figs.  35,  36)  and 
the  equally  small,  but  more  graceful,  and  scarcely  carinate  C. 
Gouldi,  Carpenter.  I  have  selected  from  these  names  that  of 
the  earliest  published,  but  with  some  misgiving  because  it 
describes  a  state  of  the  species  which  must  be  regarded  as 
abnormal ;  I  have  been  partly  influenced  to  do  this  because  Mr. 
W.  H.  Dall  similarly  arranged  the  synonymy  of  the  species  ten 
years  -since.  C.  Gouldi  is  said  to  differ  in  its  operculum,  but  the 
opercnlum  is  known  to  vary  in  other  species  of  Columbella  from 
fusoid  to  purpuroid.  C.  eollaris,  Reeve  (fig.  39),  is  probably  a 
large  example  of  the  carinate  form.

have  been  obtained  by  the  Wilkes  Exploring  Kxpedition  at  Rio 
Janeiro,  but  as  the  expedition  visited  the  West  Coast  of  South 
America  also,  it  is  probable  that  the  locality  given  may  be  incor-

rect.  I  have  specimens  of  the  original  lot  before  me  ;  they  do 
not  differ  from  unifazciata.  The  very  short  description  given 
by  Lamarck  of  his  C.  unifasciaU*  leaves  little  doubt  that  it  WHH 
intended  for  this  species  :  it  is  said  to  have  come  from  the  Isle  of 
France,  and  has  never  been  identified  positively.  I  include  also 
C.  ebenum,  Phil.,  an  un figured  species  from  Magellan's  Straits. 

C.  ELECTROIDES,  Reeve.     PI.  47,  fig.  44. 

Shell  ovate,  smooth,  rather  thin  ;  reddish  fulvous,  articulated 
with  white  next  the  sutures.  Length,  13  mill. 

Bay  of  Guayaquil. 
C.  INFUMATA,  Crosse.     PI.  47,  fig.  45. 

Shell  ovate-elongate,  rather  thick,  smooth,  not  shining ; 
chestnut-brown,  with  scarcely  visible  white  maculations  next 
the  suture.  Length,  12  mill. 

So.  Australia. 

Section  IV.     Mitrella,  Ri?so 

Shell  mitriform, smooth, with  moderate  spire;  columella  smooth 
or  with  a  few  anterior  rugosities  ;  outer  lip  smooth  or  crenulated 
within.  I  unite  with  this  group  Astyris  and  Amycla  (in  part)  of 
H.  and  A.  Adams.  The  principal  species  of  the  latter  are  true 
Nax*&<  and  are  described  in  vol.  iv,  36,  37. 

(1.  IDALINA,  Duclos.     PI.  47,  figs.  46,  47. 

Shell  smooth,  polished,  yellowish  or  rosy  white,  apex  pink, 
with  a  row  of  opaque  white  spots  on  the  periphery,  sqmetimes 
shaded,  and  occasionally  reappearing  at  the  sutures  of  the  upper 
whorls.  Length,  8* mill. 

St.  Thomas,  W.  I.  (Swift). 

Under  a  glass,  the  shell  is  sometimes  covered  with  smooth, 
rounded  longitudinal  ribs  ;  the  outer  lip  appears  to  be  smooth 
within.  C.  gulttirosa,  Duclos  (fig.  47),  is  a  larger  shell  according 
to  the  figure  given,  but  does  not  otherwise  differ  from  a  faded 
state  of  C.  idalina. 

C.  MOLECULINA,  Duclos.     PL  47,  figs.  48,  49. 

Shell  white,  with  an  open  network  of  chestnut,  and  darker 
chestnut  curved  markings  near  the  suture,  defining  a  sutural 
band  ;  sometimes  the  surface  is  covered  with  chocolate,  except 
the  sutural  space  and  the  defining  markings. 

Habitat  unknown. 


118  MITRELLA. 

The  dark-surfaced  species  included  in  the  above  description  is 
C.  denticulata,  Duclos  (fig.  49) ;  the  form  of  the  shell  and  pattern 
of  coloration  leave  not  a  doubt  of  its  identity  with  C.  moleculina. 
I  feel  almost  assured  of  the  identity  of  these  shells  with  C.  ida- 
lina,  although  I  find  none  among  the  numerous  specimens  of  that 
shell  before  me,  showing  their  coloration. 

C.  REEVEI,  Carpenter.     PL  47,  fig.  50. 

Shell  with  fine  revolving  linear  grooves ;  white  more  or  less 
clouded  or  spotted  with  chestnut-brown,  often  forming  a  revolving 
row  of  spots  below  the  suture,  or  brown  with  white  spots  below 
the  suture  ;  interior  of  outer  lip  very  faintly  plicate. 

Length,  8  mill. 

Guacomayo  to  Cape  St.  Lucas,  Gal. 

First  described  by  Carpenter  as  C.  Santa- Barbarensis,  and 
subsequently  changed  as  above,  because  the  species  is  of  more 
tropical  distribution,  and  is  believed  not  to  approach  Santa- 
Barbara,  Cal. 

C.  IONIDA,  Duclos.     PI.  47,  fig.  51. 

Shell  uniform  pale  rose  or  orange,  the  spire  and  upper  portion 
of  the  body  with  rounded  longitudinal  ribs,  the  lower  portion  of 
the  body-whorl  with  revolving  lines  ;  outer  lip  dentate  within. 

Length,  13  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Although  comparatively  large  the  original  figures  of  this 
species  appear  to  indicate  juvenility.  The  form  of  the  shell 
scarcely  permits  its  arrangement  in  this  group,  recalling  that  of 
the  typical  Columbellaa,  but  the  dentition  of  the  outer  lip  is 
different,  and  in  the  sculpture  there  is  some  analogy  with  6'. 
idalina.  . 

C.  IRRORATA,  Reeve.     PI.  47,  tig.  5*2. 

Shell  acuminately  oblong,  smooth,  spire  acicular,  whorls  convex, 
the  last  groove-striated  at  the  base  ;  yellowish,  finely  dotted 
with  orange  throughout,  and  encircled  beneath  the  sutures  with 
orange-shaded, snow-white  spots;  aperture  ovate,  lip  denticulated 
within.  Length,  15  mill.

convex;  aperture  small,  lip  thickened,  denticulated  within. 

Length,  19  mill. 

California  (Mus.  C timing). 

This  locality  has  not  been  verified  by  Californian  collectors, 
and  I  do  not  know  that  the  species  has  been  recognized  by  con- 
chologists  generally :  I  am  unacquainted  with  it.  G.  vexillum^ 
Reeve  (fig.  54),  appears  to  be  a  state  of  this  species  in  which 
the  flames  are  replaced  by  irregular  longitudinal  strigations  ;  it 
is  said  to  come  from  the  Gulf  of  California,  and  is  equally 
unknown  to  me. 

C.  LIGULA,  Duclos.     PL  47,  fig.  55. 

Shell  oblong,  acuminated,  smooth  ;  whitish,  yellowish,  stone- 
color,  etc.,  with  three  marbled  or  closely  reticulated  bands  of 
chestnut  or  slate-color,  sometimes  interspersed  with  white  spots, 
sometimes  the  bands  are  confluent,  covering  the  whole  surface 
or  nearly  all;  aperture  white,  the  outer  lip  plicate  within,  slightly 
notched  and  shouldered  posteriorly.  Length,  *8-l  inch. 

riiilippines,  Solomon's  and  Viti  Islands. 

One  of  the  most  beautiful  of  the  species  and  varying  infinitely 
in  the  shades  and  disposition  of  the  colors. 

C.  INDICA,  Reeve.     PL  47.  fig.  56. 

Shell  with  revolving  grooves ;  white,  with  two  series  of  revolving 
oblique  chocolate  spots  ;  lip  thickened,  denticulated  within.

India  (Cuming) . 
C.  IMPOLITA,  Sowb.     PL  47,  figs.  57,  58. 

Shell  elongately  turret ed,  spire  plicately  ribbed  towards  the 
apex  ;  whorls  flatly  convex,  fulvous  chestnut,  encircled  above 
with  a  white  band  ;  aperture  small,  denticulated  within. 

Habitat  unknown- 

This  species  was  described  from  a  single  worn  specimen  in  the 
Cumingian  collection.  From  this  specimen,  presumably,  the  two 
very  different  illustrations  in  Sowerby  (fig.  57)  and  Reeve  (fig. 
58)  were  drawn.  Sowerby  figures  and  describes  a  shell  w^ith 
smooth  spire-whorls.

simple.     Length,  7-9  mill. 

Iba,  Province  of  Zambales,  Luzon,  Philippines  (Cuming). 
I  have  before  me  two  specimens  said  to  come  from  Australia 
which  perfectly  agree  with  the  above  shell  except  that  the  outer 
lip  is  toothed  within ;  if  they  are  of  this  species,  they  connect 
it  with  C.  impolite. 

C.  TNTEXTA,  Gaskoin.     PL  47,  figs.  60-02. 

Shell  acicular,  smooth,  with  revolving  stria?  at  the  base  ;  white, 
longitudinally  strigated  and  spotted  with  dark  chestnut  or  choco- 
late ;  outer  lip  smooth,  or  slightly  plicate  within. 

Length,  18  mill. 

Darnley  fsl.,  Torres  Sts.,  N.  Australia  (Brazier). 
The  synonymy  includes  C.  fusillus,  Reeve  (fig.  61)  and   C.

C.  ACHATINA,  Sowb.     PI.  47,  figs.  63,  64. 

Shell  smooth  ;  yellowish  white,  marbled  and  longitudinally 
flamed  with  chestnut ;  whorls  six,  flatty  convex,  the  body-whorl 
with  basal  revolving  striae ;  aperture  brownish  or  violaceous, 
outer  lip  thickened  and  dentate  within.  Length,  '8  inch. 

Swan  River,  Australia. 

Sowerby's  figure  (fig.  63),  which  is  decollated,  is  from  an  indi- 
vidual with  more  convex  whorls  than  that  represented  by  the 
(probably  enlarged)  figure  in  Reeve  (fig.  64). 

C.  LINCOLNENSTS,  Reeve.     PI.  48,  fig,  65. 

Shell  smooth,  shining,  striate  at  the  base;  spire  long,  sharp 
pointed;  whorls  flattened;  yellowish  white,  covered  by  a  network 
of  chestnut,  sometimes  sparsely,  and  frequentty  so  close  as  to 
cause  the  surface  to  appear  a  uniform  chestnut-color;  aperture 
chestnut  or  violaceous  within,  the  outer  lip  interiorly  dentate. 

Length,  12  mill. 

Australia,  Tasmania. 

This  is  a  common  species  ;  and  may  be  a  small  variety  of  C. 
achatina — from  which  it  hardly  ditlrrs  in  form,  and  hut  little  in 
coloring. 

C.  MENKEANA,  Reeve.     PL  48,  fig.  66.

The  spots  on  the  bands  are  frequently  arrow-shaped. 
C.  BELLA,  Reeve.     PI.  48,  lig.  67. 

Shell  fusiformly  pyramidal,  with  long  pointed  spire,  and  rather 
flat  whorls, separated  by  a  well-marked  suture;  yellowish  white, 
with  chestnut  longitudinal  flames,  a  light  band  at  the  suture, 
with  chestnut  fasciculations,  another  light  band  on  the  periphery, 

bordered  with  chestnut  spots.     Length,  13  mill. 

China. 
C.  BLANDA,  Sowb.     PI.  48,  flgs.  68,  69. 

Shell  ovately  pyramidal,  smooth,  polished,  slightly  striate  at 
the  base  ;  outer  lip  shouldered  and  obscurely  sinuate  above, 
usually  barely  dentate  within  ;  white,  with  narrow,  longitudinal, 
zigzag  chestnut  lines,  wrhich  become  darker  at  the  suture,  and 
especially  on  the  back  of  the  shell ;  interior  whitish. 

Length,  13  mill. 

Africa  (Solaiider). 

C.  adiostina,  Duclos  (lig.  69),  a  figured  but  undescribed  species, 
ignored  by  subsequent  monographers,  appears  to  me  to  approxi- 
mate to  this  form. 

C.  ALBINA,  Kiener.     PL  48,  figs.  70,  71. 

Shell  oblong,  smooth ;  body-whorl  slightly  shouldered  at  the 
suture,  where  it  is  sometimes  rudely  plicate  on  the  back,  base 
smooth  or  sparsely  striate;  outer  lip  much  thickened,  and  dentate 
within;  whitish,  variously  spotted,  marbled  or  banded  with 
chestnut,  yellow  or  slate-color ;  aperture  white  or  yellowish.

Shell  ovate,  stout,  with  obtuse  spire,  smooth,  somewhat  swollen 
and  wrinkled  beneath  the  suture;  yellowish  white,  with  chestnut 
and  opaque  white  maculations,  sometimes  obscurely  banded  and 
usually  with  a  row  of  small  chestnut  spots  defining  a  white  or 

maculated  subsutural  band.     Length,  10  mill.

C.  CRIBRARIA,  Lam.     PI.  48,  figs.  73-77. 

Shell  oblong-pyramidal,  the  apex  usually  truncated  ;  reticulated 
with  chestnut  or  chocolate  and  white,  sometimes  obscurely  light- 
banded  below  the  periphery ;  usually,  the  chocolate  color  predomi- 
nates, so  that  the  white  appears  upon  it  as  a  series  of  regularly 
disposed  round  white  spots  ;  interior  of  aperture  white,  in  adults, 
the  outer  lip  dentate  within.  Length,  '7  inch. 

West  Indies,  Mazatlan  to  Cape  St.  Lucas,  Panama, 

Galapagos,  Goree,  West  Africa,  Ascension  Isl. 

There  can  be  no  doubt  of  the  large  distribution  of  this  species 
indicated  by  the  above  localities.  The  Seas  of  Java  and  Philip- 
pines have  been  also  cited,  but  not  with  the  same  certainty  as 
the  others.  The  species  appears  to  be  equally  common  in  the 
West  Indies  and  in  the  subtropical  waters  of  the  West  Coast  of 
N.  America.  Gmelin's  name,  Valuta  ocellata,  has  priority,  but 
the  species  is  so  well  known  as  C.  cribraria  that  it  would  be 
inadvisable  to  change  it. 

C.  ar<7M,s*,d'Orb  (fig.  76),  appears  to  be  the  juvenile  state.  Buc. 
parvulum,  Bunker  (fig.  77),  is  a  synonym. 

C.  DELICATA,  Reeve.     PL  48,  fig.  78. 

Shell  smooth  and  shining;  yellowish  white  with  a  delicate  close 
network  of  orange-red  lines  ;  lip  slightty  sinuated  above,  denticu- 
lated within.  Length,  13  mill. 

Guatemala. 

Is  perhaps  only  a  variety  of  C.  cribraria. 

C.  CERVINETTA,  Carpenter. 

The  typical  form  was  described  from  M  single  specimen  -27 
inch  long,  the  var.  obsoleta  from  a  juvenile  and  adult,  the  latter 
of  which  is  '19  inch  long.  The  pattern  of  coloring  is  said  to  be 
like  C.  cribraria,  but  the  spire  is  supposed  to  present  distinctive 
features. 

Mazatlan. 

Not  figured. 

C.  DALLI,  E.  A.  Smith. 

Shell  fusiformly  ovate,  yellowish  white,  reticulaU'd  with  pnlc 
brown,  the  interstices  being  of  irregular  shapes  and  sizes — or  in 
other  words,  it  is  pale  brown,  closely  spotted  irregularly  with 
yellowish  white;  epidermis  very  thin;  apex  eroded,  remaining 


MITRELLA.  123 

whorls  6,  flattish  or  scarcely  convex,  smooth,  separated  by  a  deep 
suture,  giving  the  spire  a  slightly  turreted  aspect ;  last  whorl 
feebly  angular  at  the  middle,  contracted  inferioiiy,  and  striated 
around  the  extremity ;  aperture  pale  lilac  within,  occupying  about 
three-sevenths  of  the  entire  length  ;  outer  lip  arcuate,  thickened, 
especially  at  the  upper  part ;  thin  at  the  margin,  and  armed 
within  the  mouth  with  about  7  elongated  tubercles ;  columella 
arched  above,  oblique  at  the  base,  with  indications  of  one  or  two 
tubercles  below  the  middle,  covered  with  a  thin  whitish  callosity ; 
basal  canal  a  little  recurved. 

L.  14,  cliam.  5'33  mill. ;  aperture  6  long,  2*5  broad. 

Vancouver's  Island. 

This  species  is  broader  than  C.  cribraria,  has  a  less  acuminated 
and  more  turreted  spire,  and  the  color  is  much  paler ;  the  outer 
lip,  too,  does  not  exhibit  nearly  so  distinct  a  superior  sinus  and 
the  last  whorl  is  more  contracted  at  the  base,  forming  more  of 
a  distinct  basal  canal  with  the  lower  extremity  of  the- labrum. 

The  above  is  the  full  description  of  this  unflgured  species. 
The  distinctive  characters  from  C.  cribraria  do  not  appear  to  be 
very  well  marked,  and  the  habitat  given  perhaps  needs  verifi- 
cation. 

C.  D^DALA,  H.  Adams. 

Shell  narrow,  elongate ;  pallid  luteous,  reticulated  with  chestnut 
and  maculated  with  the  same  color  at  the  suture ;  outer  lip  sinuated 
behind,  not  dentate.  Length,  5  mill. 

New  Hebrides. 

I  have  not  seen  this  species ;  the  description  much  resembles  a 
small,  well-covered  C.  cribraria. 

C.  OBLITA,  Reeve.     PI.  48,  fig.  78. 

Shell  minutely  spirally  striated  throughout ;  transparent  white, 
with  longitudinal  orange-brown  streaks  ;  aperture  small,  the  colu- 
mella excavated,  the  outer  lip  simple.  Length,  8  mill. 

Peru. 
C.  VELATA,  Reeve.     PI.  48,  fig.  79. 

Shell  ovate,  smooth,  shining;  very  densely  reticulated  with 
chestnut,  whorls  rather  flattened ;  aperture  small,  lip  denticulated 
within,  slightly  siuuated  at  the  upper  part. 

Habitat  unknown. 


1  24  MITRELLA. 

A  smooth  shell,  of  simple  growth,  veiled,  as  it  were,  with  a 
very  close  network  painting  of  dark  chestnut. 

I  reproduce  Reeve's  description  and  figure  ;  the  type  was  in 
the  Taylor  collection.  It  looks  very  much  like  a  well-covered 
specimen  of  C.  cribraria. 

C.  FLEXUOSA,  Lam.     PL  48,  figs.  81,  82. 

Shell  oblong,  thick,  smooth;  whitish,  with  longitudinal  chestnut- 
colored,  flexiious  lines  ;  spire  acuminated,  volutions  seven,  (some- 
times) furnished  with  a  single  row  of  small  tubercles  ;  aperture 
oblong-ovate,  white  within  ;  internal  teeth  of  the  outer  lip  few 

and  distant.     Length,  18  mill. 

Isle  of  France. 

This  is  a  very  doubtfully  identified  species.  Sowerb}^  states 
that  the  only  specimen  he  has  seen  wras  obtained  from  the 
Lamarckian  collection  by  Mr.  Cuming,  and  was  tuberculated  as 
above  described  :  on  the  other  hand  the  specimen  figured  by 
Kiener  (fig.  81),  as  from  the  Lamarckian  collection  is  smooth,  and 
differs  in  other  respects  from  Sowerby's  example.  The  figures 
in  Sowerby  (fig.  82)  and  Reeve  are  so  close  to  C.  Australis, 
Gaskoin,  as  to  strongly  indicate  specific  identity  —  in  which  case, 
Lamarck's  species  would,  of  course,  have 


(!.  EMARGINATA,  Reeve.     PL  48,  fig.  84. 

Shell  ovate,  rat  her  stout,  shining;  whitish,  banded  mid  blotched 
with  red-brown  net  work,  spirally  bilineated  towards  the  apex; 
spire  rather  short,  sharp,  whorls  ribbed  near  the  apex.  then 
smooth  ;  aperture  small,  lip  conspicuously  notched  at  the  upper 
part,  strongly  denticulated  within.  Length,  10  mi?l. 


This  shell,  in  the  Cumingian  collection,  is  said  to  be  like  C. 
/Hilch.eUa  (  elegantula)  but  more  solid  and  more  strongly 
colored,  with  a  more  than  usual  ema  ruination  of  the  lip. 

C.  MICANS,  Pease.     PL  48,  fig.  85. 

Shell  smooth,  polished,  slightly  striate  at  the  base;  spire- 
whorls  flattened,  apex  acute;  light  purple,  under  tine  chestnut 
streaks  and  reticulations,  the  sutures  generally  marked  with  a 
row  of  narrow  white  lines  ;  aperture  light  purple  within  ;  outer 

lip  dentate. 

Paumotus  Isles  (Pease);  Viti  Isles  (Garrett).

Apparently  closely  allied  to  the  preceding  species,  but  has 
smooth  spire-whorls,  and  somewhat  different  coloring. 

C.  BROOKEI,  Reeve.     PL  48,  fig.  86. 

Shell  fusiform,  narrow,  somewhat  curved,  smooth,  linearly 
grooved  at  the  base ;  yellowish,  densely  waved  with  chestnut 
streaks,  stained  darker  at  the  base ;  aperture  narrow,  lip  denticu- 
lated within. 

Sarawak,  Borneo  (Mus.  Taylor). 

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  species ;  the  figure  resembles 
the  smooth  variety  of  C.  zebra,  Gray,  except  that  the  spire  is 
longer. 

C.  SEMICONVEXA,  Lam.     PL  48,  figs.  87-93. 

Shell  rather  thick,  smooth,  striated  at  base ;  pale,  longitudinally 
flamed  and  reticulated  with  red-brown  ;  aperture  roseate  within ; 
outer  lip  strongly  dentate.  Length,  8-18  mill. 

»S.  Australia,  Tasmania. 

Varies  considerably  in  form  and  coloring. 

With  this  are  to  be  placed  as  synonyms  G.  rosacea,  Reeve  (fig. 
89).  and  C.  saccharata,  Reeve  ( fig.  90),  short  and  long  specimens 
which  have  lost  their  overlying  reticulated  pattern  of  chestnut 
spots  jind  Hames.  (..'.  lntea,  Quoy  dig.  91),  from  Tonga-Taboo, 
is  an  unrecognized  species,  which  may.  perhaps  be  a  worn  C. 
xc.ni/co/irexa;  veiy  likely  C.  polUa,  Reeve  (fig.  92),  described 
from  a  single  specimen  in  the  Taylor  collection,  and  without 
habitat,  is  also  a  synonym.  C.  miltostoma,  Tenison-Woods,  was 
described  from  a  small  specimen,  six  millimetres  long;  I  have 
specimens  (fig.  93)  agreeing  essentially  with  this  description 
and  eight  mill,  in  length,  strongly  resembling  C.  rosacea,  above ; 
the  two  may  constitute  a  minor  variety,  perhaps. 

C.  PICTA,  Reeve.     PL  48,  fig.  94. 

Shell  ovate,  rather  thick,  spire  somewhat  obtuse,  smooth ; 
reticulately  flamed  with  chocolate  and  white  ;  aperture  rather 
small,  narrow  ;  lip  thickened,  denticulated  within. 

Length,  13-5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown  (Mus.  Cuming). 

I  think  this  will  prove  to  be  a  color-variation  of  the  last 
species. 


126  MTTRELLA. 

C.  TICAONIS,  Sowerby.     PL  48,  fig.  95. 

Shell  ovate,  turgid  in  the  middle,  with  moderate  spire,  spirally 
striated;  longitudinally  marbled  with  pale  yellowish  and  chestnut ; 
outer  lip  thickened  externally,  its  edge  thin,  with  a  few  small 
denticles  within.  Length,  11  mill. 

L  Ticao,  Philippines;  at  7  fathoms  in  sandy  mud  (H.  Cuming). 

"  A  bright,  richly  painted  shell,  rather  more  attenuately 
restricted  at  the  base  than  is  usual  in  this  genus." — Reeve. 

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  species. 

C.  DICTUA,  Tenison-Woods.     PI.  48,  fig.  96. 

Shell  small,  narrowly  ovate,  with  acute  spire,  shining ;  closely 
angularly  reticulated  with  yellow  and  brown,  forming  acute  zigzag 
markings  of  equal  width  ;  aperture  ovate,  wide  in  front. 

Length,  9  mill. 

JV.  Tasmania. 

The  form  is  like  a  very  small  C.  semiconvexa ;  there  are  no 
spots  or  cloudings  of  any  kind.  The  species  has  not  been  here- 
tofore figured  ;  I  am  able  to  give  an  illustration  from  a  specimen 
kindly  communicated  to  me  by  Mr.  C.  E.  Beddome  of  Hobart 
Town. 

C.  AUSTRALIS,  Gaskoin.     PI.  49,  figs.  97,  98. 

Shell  fusiformly  oblong,  fulvous  reticulated  and  blotched  with 
chestnut,  sometimes  with  an  obscure  covered  broad  white  band  at 
the  suture  and  a  narrower  one  below  the  periphery  ;  body-whorl 
contracted  below,  with  revolving  stria1 ;  outer  lip  usually  dentic- 
ulated within.  Length,  15-18  mill. 

New  South  Wales,  Australia. 

It  is  found  under  stones,  at  low  tide,  in  company  with  G. 
semiconvexa;  from  which  it  is  distinguished  by  its  anterior  con- 
traction and  (in  fresh  specimens)  by  its  epidermal  frill  below  the 
sutures.  Sometimes  the  entire  body-whorl  is  obscurely  striate. 
The  variability  of  the  species  is  shown  by  the  second  figure. 

C.  AUSTRINA,  Gaskoin.     PI.  49,  fig.  99. 

Shell  smooth,  ivory-white,  shining,  with  a  broad  red  or  rosy 
band  on  the  periphery;  lip  notched  above,  strongly  dentated 

within.     Length,  13  mill. 

Australia. 
C.  ANNULATA,  Reeve.     PL  49,  fig.  100. 

Shell  smooth,  ivory-white,  with  a  conspicuous  narrow  chestnut

revolving  line,  appearing  on  the  spire-whorls ;  outer  lip  faintly 
sinuated  above,  denticulate  within.     Length,  13  mill. 

Australia. 

The  form  is  the  same  as  in  C.  austrina,  the  only  difference 
being  in  the  position  and  width  of  the  colored  band.  I  think 
that  they  will  prove  to  be  identical,  and  that  both  are  described 
from  worn  specimens  which  have  lost  a  more  superficial  coloring. 

C.  ARANEOSA,  Gould. 

Shell,  form  of  C.austrina,  but  reticulated  and  maculated  with 
fulvous  and  white ;  aperture  violet-tinted.  Length,  10  mill. 

Kagosima  B<iy  and  China  Coast  (Stimpson). 

Not  figured.  The  types  were,  I  suppose,  destroyed  in  the  great 
Chicago  fire. 

C.  BUCCINOIDES,  Sowb.     PI.  49,  fig.  1. 

Shell  deep  chocolate,  nearly  black,  usually  with  a  row  of  white 
spots  on  the  periphery,  and  sometimes  a  less  conspicuous  similar 
row  at  the  suture  ;  aperture  dark  within.  Length,  18  mill. 

Peru;  under  stones  at  low  water  (Cuming). 

C.  AVENA,  Reeve.     PI.  49,  fig.  2. 

Shell  smooth,  shining,  striated  below  ;  reticulated,  flamed  and 
spotted  with  orange-chestnut  and  white ;  aperture  violet-tinted, 

denticulated  within.     Length,  13  mill. 

Buffalo,  Cape  Colony. 
C.  TENUK,  Gaskoin.     PI.  49,  fig.  3. 

Shell  thin,  with  acuminated  spire  and  inflated  body-whorl, 
smooth,  striated  below  ;  whitish,  with  bold  flames  and  zigzag 
lines  of  orange-brown  ;  aperture  purplish, expanded  below;  outer 
lip  thin,  without  teeth,  sinuated  posteriorly.  Length,  14  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 
C.  PULLA,  Gaskoin.     PI.  49,  figs.  4-7. 

Shell  acuminately  oblong,  dark  chestnut  or  chocolate-color 
without  and  within,  colurnella  whitish  or  sometimes  tessellated 
with  chestnut;  sometimes  the  surface  is  lighter-colored,  and  then 
it  reveals  an  obscure  reticulated  pattern  with  faint  spots  at  the 
suture  and  on  the  periphery  ;  outer  lip  without  teeth. 

Length,  13  mill. 

Port  Jackson,  Australia. 

C.'nux,  Reeve  (fig.  5),  appears  to  be  merely  a  somewhat 
stouter  example  of  this  species.  C.  badia,  Tenison-Woods  (fig.  6), 


128  MITRELLA. 

is  also  a  synonym ;  and  perhaps  C.  Roblini  of  the  same  author 
(fig.  7)  also  belongs  here. 

C.  RUSSELLI,  Brazier.     PI.  49,  lig  8. 

Shell  cylindrically  oblong,  somewhat  fusiform,  smooth;  white, 
encircled  with  dark  orange  spots;  on  the  last  whorl  there  are 
two  rows  of  spots,  the  upper  row  larger,  the  lower  long  and 
reticulated,  those  above  the  suture  arrow-shaped;  outer  lip 
smooth  within.  Length,  4'5  mill. 

Claremont  Group,  N.  E.  Australia. 

Described  from  a  single  specimen. 

C.  TENEBRICA,  Reeve.     PI.  49,  lig.  9. 

Shell  smooth,  dark  fulvous  chestnut,  obscurely  longitudinally 
streaked  ;  whorls  rather  flattened  ;  aperture  small,  interior  dark 

chestnut,  lip  simple.     Length,  9  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Said  to  be  distinguished  from  C.  palla  by  its  color-stripes  and 
by  the  dark-colored  columella.  It  is  a  doubtful  species. 

C.  TENISONI,  Tryon.     PL  49,  fig.  10. 

Shell  ovate,  sub-biconical,  smooth,  shining;  pale  chestnut  very 
thickly  ornamented  with  chestnut  longitudinal  lines,  sometimes 
with  two  revolving  bands  of  white  spots;  whorls  five,  somewhat 
flatly  tumid,  aperture  ovate,  acute  posteriorly, outer  lip  thickened, 

dentate  within.     Length,  3  mill. 

Tasmania. 

The  revolving  hands  are  not  present  on  the  two  specimens 
sent  to  me  by  Mr.  Beddome,  one  of  which  I  figure.  The  longitu- 
dinal coloring  is  so  close  and  fine  as  to  give  the  whole  shell  a 
dusky  brown  appearance,  the  markings  being  only  distinguishable 
under  a  lens.  Described  by  Mr.  Tenison-Woods  as  C.  minuta,  a 
name  preoccupied  by  Gould. 

C.  ANGASI,  Brazier.     PI.  49,  fig.  11. 

Shell  smooth,  yellowish  Avith  longitudinal  flexuous  chestnut 
lines,  interrupted  at  the  suture  and  on  the  periphery  by  yellowish 
bands  with  scolloped  borders;  aperture  white,  lip  dentate  within. 

Length,  5  mill.

but  upon  a  comparison  of  specimens  I  am  not  able  to  arrive  at  a 
like  conclusion.  Mr.  Andrew  Garrett  writes  to  me  that  C.  Vitiensis, 
Dunker,  has  been  referred  here  b}'  one  of  his  English  corres- 
pondents. 

C.  ZEBRA,  Gray.     PL  49,  figs.  12-14. 

Shell  oblong,  somewhat  pyramidal,  either  smooth,  or  the  upper 
part  of  the  body-whorl  and  spire  obscurely  tuberculately  folded, 
striate  below  ;  white  with  zebra-like  longitudinal  chestnut  mark- 
ings, more  or  less  interrupted  or  broken  up  into  spots;  folds, 
when  present,  usually  colored ;  interior  slightly  violet-tinted ; 
outer  lip  smooth  or  barely  dentate  within.  Length,  9-13  mill. 
New  Zealand,  Japan,  Paumotus,  Sandwich  Islands. 

With  this  species  must  be  united  C.  Pacifica,  Gask.  (fig.  13), 
and  C.  miser,  Sowb.  (fig.  14).  There  can  be  no  doubt  of  the 
extensive  distribution  indicated  above. 

C.  DUNKERT,  Tryon.     PL  49,  fig.  15. 

Shell  smooth,  ovate-conic,  sulcate  at  the  base,  apex  acute  ; 
color  variable,  rosy  or  orange,  or  white,  reticulated  or  undulated, 
banded  or  maculated  with  chestnut;  aperture  light  violet  or 
white,  the  lip  thickened  and  dentate;  operculum  purpuroid. 

Length,  7-13  mill.  Japan. 

Very  variable  in  both  coloring  and  form,  and  referred  by 
Dunker,  who  described  it  under  the  name  of  varians,  to  the  genus 
Amycla.  As  I  do  not  recognize  the  generic  distinctness  of 
Amycla,  I  am  compelled  to  change  the  name — that  of  varians 
having  been  used  for  a  Columbella,  many  years  earlier,  by 
Sowerby. 

C.  BURCHARDI,  Dunker.     PL  49,  fig.  17. 

Shell  smooth,  with  fine  revolving  striae,  becoming  more  dis- 
tinct towards  the  base;  lip  thickened,  slightly  sulcate  within, 
externally  sub  varicose ;  white,  undulated  or  irregularly  maculated 

with  chestnut.     Length,  15-18  mill. 

Japan. 
C.  HANLEYI,  Desh.     PL  49,  fig.  16. 

Shell  small,  ovate-conic,  smooth ;  white  variegated  and 
marbled  with  chestnut ;  aperture  white  within  ;  lip  thickened

Described  from  a  single,  juvenile  specimen,  and  not  figured. 

C.  SCRIPTA,  Linn.     PL  49,  figs.  18-21. 

Shell  smooth,  shining,  }^ellowish  white,  usually  marbled  or 
broadty  longitudinally  striped  with  chestnut  or  chocolate-color ; 
interior  of  aperture  often  yellowish  or  brownish  ;  outer  lip  some-

C.  MARTENSI,  Lischke.     PI.  49,  fig.  22. 

Shell  turreted  subulate,  smooth,  under  a  corneous  epidermis  ; 
whitish  with  undulating  lines  or  flames  of  chestnut,  frequently 
forming  articulated  bands  at  the  suture,  and  on  the  middle  and 
base  of  the  body-whorl ;  lip  acute,  thickened  and  dentate  within. 

Length,  20  mill. 

Japan. 

Allied  in  form,and  frequently  in  coloring,  to  C.  scripta,  Linn. 

C.  LUNATA,  Say.     PI.  49,  fig.  23. 

Whorls  six,  nearly  smooth,  with  usually  a  single  revolving 
line  below  the  suture,  and  a  few  around  the  base ;  suture  not 
deeply  impressed ;  aperture  narrow,  slightly  angulated  above, 
and  shortly  channeled  below  ;  lip  simple,  dentate  within  ;  color 
reddish  brown  or  yellowish,  with  one  or  more  series  of  sublimate 
white  spots  on  the  body-whorl;  occasionally  uniform  reddish 
brown,  or  with  sublimate  dark  markings.  Length,  5  mill. 

Massachusetts  to  Florida. 

Animal  pale  whitish  ;  foot  linear,  nearly  as  long  as  the  shell, 
acute  behind,  truncate  in  front ;  proboscis  more  than  half  the 
length  of  the  shell,  obtuse  at  tip  with  a  brown  annnlation  and 
another  at  the  base ;  tentacula  short,  cylindrical,  annulate  with 
blackish  on  the  middle ;  eyes  black,  at  the  base  of  the  tentacula.

about  half  the  total  length.     Animal  white.     Length,  4'5  mill. 

New  England. 

Differs  in  coloring  and  form,  being  more  attenuated,  and  in 
the  want  of  inferior  revolving  lines  from  C.  lunata — which 
attains  about  the  same  dimensions.  This  species  is  better  known 
under  the  name  of  G.  dissimilia,  Stimpson,  C.  zonalis  having 
been  described  from  an  immature  shell. 

C.  DERMESTOIDES,  Kiener.     PL  49,  fig.  25. 

Shell  smooth,  shining,  of  five  or  six  whorls, covered  with  reddish 
ocellations  and  banded  with  alternate  white  and  reddish  spots 
on  the  periphery ;  outer  lip  thin,  slightly  dentate  within. 

Length,  8  mill. 

West  Indies. 

Kiener  gives  the  Mediterranean  Sea  as  locality,  which  is  an 
error ;  as  well  as  Angas'  identification  of  an  Australian  species 
with  it.  Reeve's  figure  scarcely  represents  the  shell!  Compare 
with  C.  moleculina,  Duclos. 

C.  SPIRANTHA,  Ravenel. 

Shell  small,  ovate-conic;  smooth,  except  at  the  base,  where 
there  are  a  few  revolving  lines;  whorls  seven,  in  mature  speci- 
mens, nearly  flat,  with  the  suture  distinct ;  color  brown,  with  a 
series  of  irregular  triangular  spots  of  a  dull  y ellow ;  sometimes 
the  general  color  is  dull  yellow,  with  brown  waving  lines,  marking 
off  the  whorls  with  the  irregular  spots;  aperture  oval,  about  one- 
third  the  length  of  the  shell,  with  a  slight  recess  at  the  posterior 
angle,  and  a  short  canal  in  front ;  brown  with  a  few  teeth  within 
the  outer  lip,  and  a  smooth  slight  callus  on  the  pillar. 

Length,  4  mill. 

Wundo  River,  80.  Carolina. 

Animal  white ;  proboscis  half  the  length  of  the  shell ;  foot  a 
little  longer  than  the  shell,  narrow,  wider  in  front ;  posterior  end 
quite  narrow  but  not  pointed  ;  operculum  small,  on  posterior  end 
of  foot ;  head  projecting  from  the  foot,  with  tentacles  one-third 
the  length  of  the  shell,  very  delicate,  almost  hair-like,  with  small 
black  eyes  at  the  base.  Animal  active,  keeping  the  proboscis  in 
constant  motion,  while  the  tentacles  are  little  used. 

This  shell  is  like  C.  lunata,  Say,  but  is  narrower  in  proportion

to  its  length  ;  the  aperture  is  shorter  and  differently  shaped,  the 
pillar  being  straighter  and  the  denticnlations  of  the  outer  lip 
stronger.  The  animals  differ;  the  tentacles  of  G.  spirantha  are 
delicate  and  hair-like,  while  in  C.  lunata  they  are  rather  thick 
for  the  size  of  the  animal. 

I  copy  Ravenel's  description  above  in  full.  It  is  evidently  a 
critical  species,  and  Stimpson  considered  it  a  doubtful  one.  It 
has  never  been  figured,  and  our  specimens  (not  received  from 
Ravenel,  although  from  the  vicinity  of  his  locality)  are  entirely 
too  close  to  C.  lunata. 

C.  NIVEA,  Ravenel. 

Shell  small,  delicate,  elongated-conic,  white,  immaculate, 
smooth,  polished,  prettily  striated  on  the  outer  part  of  the  canal, 
body-whorl  longer  than  the  spire,  suture  distinct,  with  a  white 
revolving  line  a  little  below  it  on  the  whorls  ;  pillar  covered  with 
callus,  much  hollowed,  suddenly  becoming  straight  to  form  the 
canal ;  callus  ending  in  a  distinct  edge  ;  outer  lip  a  little  thick- 
ened, sparsely  denticulated  within,  the  posterior  tooth  being 
decidedly  the  most  prominent. 

Allied  to  rosacea,  Gould,  and  lunata,  Say.  A  single  specimen

The  above  is  a  copy  of  the  original  description.  I  know 
nothing  of  the  species — which  is  untigured.  The  specific  name  is 
preoccupied  by  Sowerby. 

C.  FENESTRATA,  C.  B.  Adams. 

Shell  much  elongated,  ovate  conic,  subangular  on  the  middle 
of  the  last  whorl ;  opaque  white  around  the  aperture,  with,  at  the 
summit  of  the  whorls,  a  spiral  opaque  white  band,  which  is  inter- 
rupted by  the  angles  of  an  approximate  series  of  brown  spots, 
which  have  the  form  of  the  summits  of  Gothic  windows,  and  in 
which  the  deep  brown  of  the  summit  fades  in  descending  to  the 
middle  of  the  whorls,  where  the  shell  is  transparent ;  with  three 
linear  spiral  series  of  alternating  white  and  brown  on  the  middle 
and  anterior  part  of  the  last  whorl ;  with  spiral  striae  anteriorly, 
otherwise  smooth  ;  apex  acute,  spire  with  nearly  rectilinear 
outlines;  whorls  eight,  nearly  plane,  with  a  slightly  impressed

C.  DUCLOSIANA,  cl'Orb.     PI.  50,  fig.  26. 

Shell  oblong,  subfusiform,  smooth,  striated  below ;  spire 
elongated,  conical,  with  apex  acute,  and  composed  of  seven 
flattened  whorls;  mouth  narrow,  flexuose,  with  a  thickened, 
internally  dentate  lip ;  Avhite  or  yellowish  white,  sometimes 
prettity  m;i ciliated  with  red  near  the  suture.  Length,  4  mill. 

West  Indies. 

The  figure  represents  a  wider  shell  but  with  coloring  not 
unlike  the  "  Gothic  window  summits  "  of  the  preceding  species  ; 
the  description  also  indicates  a  longer  spire  than  shown  by  the 
figure  :  so  that  the  two  descriptions  may  possibly  be  of  varieties 
of  a  single  species.  Should  they  prove  to  be  identical  Adams' 
name  would  have  priority.  The  above  specific  name  is  preoccu- 
pied by  Sowerby. 

C.  AVARA,  Duclos.     PL  50,  figs.  27,  28. 

Shell  pellucid  white,  with  opaque  white  spots  and  an  indistinct 
narrow  band  on  the  periphery  ;  columella  plicated. 

Length,  8  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Of  course  this  is  a  very  different  shell  from  C.  avara,  Say, 
which  it  is  possibty  intended  to  represent,  and  if  a  good  species 
it  must  receive  a  new  name.  One  of  the  figures,  representing 
the  back  of  the  shell,  has  numerous  minute  brown  dots. 

C.  TURBIDA,  Ducios.     PL  50,  fig.  29. 

Shell  yellowish,  longitudinally  strigated  and  reticulated  with 
chestnut;  columella  biplicatc,  outer  lip  dentate  within.

C.  UVANIA,  Duclos.     PL  50,  fig.  30. 

Smooth,  with  produced  spire  and  apparently  channeled  suture ; 
outer  lip  greatly  thickened  and  dentate  within,  inner  lip  plicate 
below  ;  light  yellowish  brown,  with  an  interrupted  band  of  large

irregular  white  spots  at  the  suture,  and  a  similar  one  on  the 

periphery.     Length,  12  mill.

C.  ANGELTA,  DucloS.       PL  50,  fig.  31. 

Shell  slender,  with  produced  spire,  striate  at  base,  otherwise 
smooth ;  outer  lip  with  an  external  varix,  numerously  toothed 

within  ;  orange-red,  including  the  interior. 

Habitat  unknown. 

No  size-marks  are  given  on  the  plate  of  Chenu  in  which  this 
species  is  figured,  but  there  can  be  no  doubt  that  the  figure  (as 
well  as  those  of  the  other  species)  is  considerably  magnified. 

C.  ORPHIA,  Duclos.     PI.  50,  figs.  32,  33. 

Shell  chocolate,  with  large  irregular  maculations  and  smaller 
spots  of  white,  the  latter  chiefly  at  the  base  of  the  body-whorl. 

Length,  7  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

This,  as  well  as  the  several  preceding  and  succeeding  species, 
figured  but  not  described  by  Duclos,  have  not  been  identified  by 
subsequent  monographers,  and  remain  unknown.  C.  ilaira, 
Duclos  (fig.  33),  is  perhaps  only  an  older  specimen,  having  one 
more  whorl,  measuring  9  mill.,  and  not  differing  essentially  in 
cither  form  or  coloring. 

C.  PSILLA,  Duclos.     PL  50,  figs.  34-36. 

Bright  chestnut,  covered  by  numerous  small  white  spots,  with 
a  band  at  the  suture  and  another  on  the  periphery  composed  of 

larger  square  spots.     Length,  6  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Var.  PHILODICIA,  Duclos.     PL  50,  figs.  35,  36. 

I  suppose  that  this  is  a  mere  color-variety.  The  ground-color 
is  lighter,  the  spots  are  present,  the  sutural  band  is  absent,  and 
there  is  only  a  slight  indication  of  a  light  band  on  the  periphery ; 
in  one  of  the  specimens  figured  the  spots  coalesce  into  irregular 
longitudinal  stripes. 

C.  PHILIA,  Duclos.     PL  50,  fig.  37.

C.  JAPIX.  Duclos.     PI.  50,  fig.  38. 

Shell  light  yellowish  brown,  with  two  moderately  broad  bands 
of  reticulated  chestnut  lines,  the  upper  one  reappearing  on  tire 
spire-whorls.  Length,  6  mill.  Habitat  unknown. 

C.  AUBANTIACA,  Dall.     PI.  50,  §g.  39. 

Minute,  fusiform,  smooth,  with  five  slightly  rounded  whorls  ; 
generally  orange-yellow,  semitranslucent  and  without  markings, 
but  occasionally  darker,  or  with  zigzag  brown  lines  leaving  a 
light  central  band  and  light  sutural  maculations ;  outer  lip 
slightly  sinuated,  hardly  striate  within.  L.  -18  in. ;  lat.  '08  in. 
Monterey,  CaL,  Todas  Santos  Bay,  L.  Gal. 

C.  TUBEROSA,  Carpenter.     PI.  50,  figs.  40,  41. 

Shell  smooth,  whorls  six,  rather  flat,  the  body-whorl  having 
an  obtusely  angulated  periphery;  nucleus  white  and  smooth, 
flat  on  the  top,  not  swollen.  Length,  7-8  mill. 

Sta.  Barbara,  San  Diego,  etc.,  California. 

Larger  than  the  preceding  species,  and  angulated  ;  the  nucleus 
also  differs,  that  of  C.  aurantiaca  being  regularly  fusiform.  The 
coloring  is  very  variable,  varying  from  white  to  dark  chocolate, 
either  uniform  or  with  a  light  central  band  and  sutural  macu- 
lations, and  sometimes  with  nebulous  or  zigzag  markings. 

Var.  VARIEGATA,  Stearns.     Fig.  41. 

Shell  usually  somewhat  more  slim  than  the  type,  and  with 
consequently  less  angulation  of  the  periphery ;  the  central  light 
band  is  more  or  less  broken  up  into  white  spots,  smaller  than 
the  sutural  maculations. 

C.  CHRYSALLOIDEA,  Carpenter.     PI.  50,  lig.  42.

136  MITRELLA. 

Described  and  figured  by  Reeve  as  G.  lacfea,  Kiener — which 
is  a  very  different  species,  originally  figured  by  Duclos ;  I  am 
therefore  compelled  to  change  the  name,  and  call  it  after  the 
gentleman  who  collected  the  Cumingiantype  specimen.  Although 
revolving  struie  are  neither  described  nor  figured  by  Reeve,  I 
think  it  not  improbable  that  this  will  prove  to  be  identical  with 
C.  chrysalloidea,  Cpr. 

C.  NASUTA,  Menke. 

Ovately  fusiform,  smooth,  with  revolving  striae  at  the  base; 
spire  conically  turreted,  acuminate  ;  yellowish-white,  with  supe- 
rior triangular  chestnut-colored  maculations  and  longitudinal 
flexuous  lines ;  lip  thickened  and  gibbous  in  front,  denticulate 

within.     L.  9'8  lin.,  apert.  5'5  lin.,  lat.  4  lin.

penter or  subsequent  students. 

C.  MARQUESANA,  Gaskoin,     PI.  50,  figs.  44-47. 

Earlier  whorls  very  faintly  minutely  costate,  balance  smooth, 

shining,  last  one  with  revolving  striae  at  base ;  yellowish  white, 

encircled  with   narrow  chestnut  lines  or  sometimes  irregularly 

maculated  with  chestnut,  tip  of  spire  rosaceous.    Length,  10  mill. 

Polynesia,  Viti  Is.,  Paumotus,  Borneo,  Loo  Choo, 

Hong  Kong,  Neic  Caledonia. 

Very  variable  in  coloring,  which  has  occasioned  a  number  of 
synonyms.  These  are  C.  teeniata,  Ads.  and  Reeve,  not  Phil, 
(fig.  46)  ;  C.  li'neolata  and  decolor,  Gould  (unfigured),  referred 
here  \)y  Carpenter  after  an  examination  of  the  types;  C.flammea,

sometimes  quite  smooth;  yellowish,  flecked  with  white,  especially 
on  the  ribs  or  nodules,  with  three  necklace-like  rows  of  small 

chestnut  spots.     Length,  8-9  mill. 

Seychelles,  Mauritius. 

C.  albinodulosa,  Gaskoin,  is  a  synonym,  but  the  only  figure  of 
it,  in  Reeve's  Iconica,  is  not  at  all  characteristic,  and  resembles 
closely  the  next  species. 

C.  LEGRANDI,  Tenison-Woods.     PI.  51,  fig.  49. 

Shell  small,  subulate,  thin,  shining  chestnut,  girdled  at  the 
suture  with  a  band  of  snowy  spots,  shaded  with  fulvous  brown  ;

versely lined  ;  aperture  elongately  ovate  ;  outer  lip  thin,  simple. 

L.  7*5,  diam.  2  mill.  Tasmania. 

My  figure  is  drawn  from  one  of  the  type  specimens ;  it  is  a 
smaller,  narrower  shell  than  the  last  species.

short,  acuminated  ;  aperture  ovate,  columella  excavated,  lip  vari- 
cose, purple-stained  within,  crenated,  one-toothed  at  the  upper 

part.     Length,  8*5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Has  somewhat  the  form  of  a  Nassa,  and  is  so  transparent  as 
to  show  the  columella  through  the  shell. 

C.  LINEOLATA  (Pease), Brazier.     PL  51,  fig.  53. 

Shell  elongately  ovate,  smooth,  shining ;  wrhoiis  six,  the  last 
grooved  at  the  base  ;  columella  tridentate,  outer  lip  very  slightly 
thickened,  smooth  or  barely  dentate  within  ;  openly  reticulated 
with  fine  chestnut  lines,  with  an  irregular  band  of  the  same  color 
encircling  the  last  whorl,  and  maculated  with  white ;  this  band 
appears  above  the  sutur.e  on  the  whorls  of  the  spire ;  there  is 
also  a  chestnut  band  towards  the  base  of  the  body-whorl. 

Length,  7-9  mill. 

New  South  Wales,  Australia. 

This  species  was  first  described  by  Mr.  W.  H.  Pease  as  C.  macu- 
/osa,a  name  preoccupied  by  Sowerby,  having  been  previously  con- 
fused by  Mr.Angas  with  C.  dermestoides,  Kiener,andb}^  Mr.  Brazier 
with  G.  lineata,  Pease — which,  apparently  by  a  slip  of  the  pen, 
he  writes  lineolata.  Pease's  description  of  lineata  (I  have  no 
specimen,  and  it  has  not  been  figured)  scarcely  covers  this  form, 
and  I  therefore  give  the  species  the  name  under  which  it  is  so 
well  known  to  Australian  collectors. 

C.  LTNEATA,  PeaSC. 

Shell  small,  solid,  fusiform,  turreted,  whitish  or  variously 
marked  with  reddish  brown;  spire  acute;  whorls  plano-convex,

the  base  ;  canal  produced  ;  sutures  faintly  impressed  ;  outer  lip 
thickened  by  a  stout  outer  varixand  dentated  within  ;  columella 
smooth,  strongly  arched  ;  aperture  small,  tortuous.

Southern  Australia. 

A  somewhat  variable  shell  both  in  form  and  coloring,  as  shown 
by  numerous  specimens  before  me.  I  agree  with  the  Australian 
conchologists  that  C.  albomaculata,  Angas  (fig.  62)  is  a  synonym.

C.  PRETRII,  Duclos.     PL  52,  fig.  76. 

Whorls  flattened,  with  deeply  impressed  sutures,  longitudi- 
nally plicate ;  white,  broadly  banded  with  chestnut,  lower  part 

of  body-whorl  chestnut.     Length,  7 '5  mill.

C.  IONTHA,  Ravenel. 

Shell  fusiform,  strong,  small,  with  nine  flat,  longitudinally 
ribbed  whorls,  and  deeply  channeled  sutures  ;  lower  part  of 
body-whorl  with  revolving  striae,  which  upon  the  ribs  give  place 
to  revolving  colored  lines  and  clouds ;  outer  lip  considerably 
enlarged,  sparsely  denticulated  within  ;  aperture  small,  rather 
wide,  the  pillar  lip  much  hollowed  above,  suddenly  becoming 
straight  to  form  the  canal.  Length,  6+  mill. 

Charleston  Bar,  So.  Carolina. 

A  single  specimen  from  the  stomach  of  a  black-fish.  Is  very 
probably  synonymous  with  C.  Hotessieri,  d'Orb.,  and  C.  Pretrii, 
Duclos.  In  the  event  of  their  proving  identical,  the  latter  name 
must  be  adopted,  having  priority  of  publication. 

C.  HOTESSIERI,  d'Orb.     PL  52,  fig.  82. 

Shell  oblong,  thick,  with  wide  longitudinal  plications  and 
revolving  striae;  spire  sharp,  composed  of  seven,  flat  whorls, 
separated  by  a  crenulated  suture ;  mouth  narrow,  sinuous,  the 
thickened  lip  six-tuberculate,  the  columella  slightly  folded ; 
yellowish  white,  more  or  less  marked  with  chestnut. 

Length,  7  mill.

C.  CONSPERSA,  Gask.     PI.  52,  figs.  77-81. 

Spire  and  upper  part  of  body-whorl  more  or  less  obsoletely 
and  distantly  plicate ;  white,  marbled  and  reticulated  with 
chestnut,  forming  a  white  band  at  the  suture  and  another  on 
the  periphery;  body-whorl  strongly  contracted,  with  revolving 
striae  below ;  lip  externally  varicose,  dentate  within,  the  margin 
sinuous  behind  ;  columella  conspicuously  folded,  the  upper  fold 
largest ;  canal  recurved.  Length,  12-15  mill. 

Philippines,  N.  E.  Australia,  New  Caledonia,  Andaman  Is. 

The  original  figures  of  G.  iodostoma,  Gask.  (fig.  78),  and  G. 
puella,  Sowb.  (fig.  79),  are  more  strongly  plicate  and  darker 
colored  than  many  of  the  specimens  before  rue,  yet  they  are 
undoubtedly  synonymous  with  the  smooth  form  of  C.  conspersa, 
from  which  the  original  figure  and  description  of  that  species 
were  made.  I  add  a  figure  from  a  specimen  (fig.  80)  of  a  nearly 
smooth  example,  showing  a  usual  state  of  the  species.  G.  con- 
taminata,  Gask.  (fig.  81),  is  to  be  referred  here. 

C.  SUGILLATA,  Reeve.     PI.  52,  fig.  86. 

Shell  ovate,  livid  brown  or  purple,  spire  turreted,  whorls  tuber- 
cularly  ribbed  round  the  upper  part,  tubercles  white ;  aperture 
somewhat  squarely  ovate,  lip  slightly  varicose,  angled  at  the 
upper  part,  denticulated  within.  Length,  12  mill.

C.  SAGITTA,  Gaskoin.     PL  52,  figs.  83-85. 

Shell  narrow,  smooth,  shining ;  pale  brown,  longitudinally 
strigated,  maculated  or  reticulated  with  chestnut,  with  usually 
a  band  on  the  periphery  and  sometimes  another  at  the  suture, 
articulated  with  white  and  chestnut,  sometimes  sagittiform. 

Length,  8  mill. 

Sandwich  Islands,  Paumotus,  Viti  Islands,  Solomon's  Is. 

This  species  was  described  as  from  Africa  and  West  Indies, 
but  these  habitats  have  not  been  confirmed  ;  on  the  other  hand 
the  description  applies  closely  to  a  common  Polynesian  species., 
and  this  identification  is  concurred  in  by  a  number  of  concholo- 
gists.  The  only  figure  of  the  species  hitherto  given  is  by  Reeve ; 
it  is  a  poor  representation  of  the  usual  state  of  the  shell  besides 
being  three  times  its  size  without  any  mention  of  its  having 
been  enlarged.  I  give  this  figure,  however  (fig.  83).  Pease  de-

scribed  it  as  C.  pusilla,  and  finding  that  name  preoccupied 
changed  it  to  C.  fusiformis,  which  was  also  preoccupied  five  or 
six  times  by  different  authors.  C.  galaxids,  Reeve  (fig.  84),  is 
a  synonym ;  as  is  also  probably  C.  doliolum,  Tapparone,  an 
unfigured  species  from  New  Guinea.  C.  Carolines,  E.  A.  Smith, 
from  Strong  Island,  Solomon  Archipelago,  is  exactly  equivalent 
to  the  figure  of  C.  galaxias,  Reeve ;  my  specimens  being  part  of 
the  original  lot  of  Carolines.  Mr.  Smith's  figure  (fig.  85)  does 
not  agree  with  his  description. 

C.  MERITA,  Brazier. 

Shell  thin,  acicular,  much  contracted  at  the  base,  yellowish 
white ;  whorls  eight  or  nine,  flattened,  minutely  tabled  at  the 
suture,  ornamented  with  roundish  opaque  white  spots,  below  the 
suture  and  between  the  spots  two  narrow  transverse  reddish 
yellow  lines  one  above  the  other ;  the  lower  having  longitudinal 
lines  of  the  same  color  running  down,  divided  with  a  white  band 
on  the  centre  of  the  last  whorl,  spire  very  much  lengthened, 
aperture  pear-shaped,  peristome  thin,  sinus  at  upper  part,  colu- 
mella  varicose,  canal  short,  narrow.  L.  7,  diam.  2'5  mill.

The  above  is  a  copy  of  the  original  description.  I  have  not 
seen  the  species — which  is  unfigured.

Shell  fusiform,  alabaster-white,  white  banded  on  the  subangu- 
lated  periphery,  sparingly  marked  with  chestnut  blotches. 

Length,  8  mill. 

Habitat  unknown  (Reeve).     Mauritius  (Martens). 

The  type  formed  part  of  the  Taylor  collection.  It  is  a  very 
doubtful  species.  Yon  Martens  has  figured  a  shell  from  Mauritius 
to  which  he  applies  this  name  with  some  doubt. 

C.  NJVEOMARGINATA,  E.  A.  Smith.     PI.  52,  fig.  91. 

Shell  grayish  white,  with  an  opaque  white  band  spotted  with 
chestnut  at  the  top  of  the  whorls,  and  a  narrower  one  around  the 
middle  of  the  last  whorl,  the  rest  of  the  surface  being  marked 
with  opaque  white  in  an  irregularly  closely  reticulating  manner; 
whorls  smooth,  the  third  and  fourth  costate ;  suture  deep ;

below,  with  revolving  siilci ;  outer  lip  with  interior  plications 
and  an  external  varix ;  dirty  white,  blotched  at  intervals  with 
chestnut-brown,  the  blotches  extending  from  suture  to  suture. 

Length,  11  mill.  Japan. 

Allied  to  C.  alabastrum,  Reeve,  but  has  more  numerous  and 
shorter  whorls,  and  differs  in  coloring.

Shell  fusiform, thick,  shining, with  sharp-pointed  spire;  whorls 
encircled  by  narrow,  rather  distant  grooves,  and  sometimes  the 
body-whorl  is  slightly  plicated  on  the  back,  just  below  the  suture ; 
white,  longitudinally  streaked,  marbled  or  reticulated  with 
chestnut,  sometimes  forming  a  white  band  on  the  periphery ; 
edge  of  columellar  lip  defined;  outer  lip  sinuated  behind, 
thickened  and  plicate  within  ;  interior  of  aperture,  tip  and  base

whorls,  the  body-whorl  striate  and  produced  below  into  a  long 
narrow  canal ;  aperture  long  and  narrow ;  outer  lip  thickened 
and  dentate  within  ;  yellowish  white.  Length,  28  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

The  above  description  is  made  up  from  the  original  figures, 
one  of  which  I  copy.  The  shell  may  be  a  fossil.  Sowerby  subse- 
quently described  a  very  different  species  under  the  same  specific 
name. 

C.  PLURISULCATA,  Reeve.     PI.  52,  fig.  95. 

Yellowish  brown,  spirally  grooved  throughout,  aperture  sinu- 
ated  posteriorly,  lip  unarmed.  Length,  12  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Described  from  a  single,  worn  and  perhaps  not  adult  specimen  : 
it  must  be  considered  a  doubtful  species. 

C.  ARATA,  Reeve.     PI.  53,  fig.  97. 

Shell  spirally  grooved  throughout ;  yellowish,  variegated  with 
red-brown  spots ;  columella  excavated ;  lip  simple,  slightly 

expanded.     Length,  14  mill.

C.  OCELLATA,  Reeve.     PI.  53,  fig.  98. 

Shell  finely  longitudinally  plicate,  with  revolving  grooves  at 
the  base ;  whitish,  stained  and  ocellated  with  orange-brown. 

Length,  8  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

The  eye-like  points  are  said  to  dip  at  rather  distant  intervals 
from  the  sutures.  A  doubtful  species. 

C.  PELAGIA,  Reeve.     PI.  53,  fig.  99. 

Shell  subulate,  the  whorls  somewhat  tubercularly  ribbed  above, 
forming  a  turreted  spire  ;  aperture  small,  lips  strongly  varicose, 
notched  at  the  upper  part,  plicate  within :  white,  marbled  with 
chestnut,  showing  a  more  or  less  defined  white  central  band,  and 
white  on  the  sutural  tubercles.  Length,  8  mill. 

Habitat  unknown.

C.  MON1L1FERA,  Sowb.       PI.  53,  fig.  100. 

Shell  oblong-acuminated,  with  well-marked  sutures  and  some- 
what rounded  whorls  ;  longitudinally  ribbed,  crossed  and  decus- 
sated or  tuberculated  by  revolving  riblets ;  white,  chestnut- 
spotted  on  the  ribs,  leaving  a  central  white  band  ;  aperture  rather 

narrow,  denticulated  within.     Length,  5  mill. 

West  Indies. 
Reeve's  figure  of  this  species  is  very  inaccurate. 

C.  MANGELIOIDES,  Reeve.     PL  53,  fig.  1. 

Shell  fusiform,  rather  solid,  longitudinally  strongly  ribbed  ; 
yellowish,  sprinkled  with  orange-brown  spots  ;  whorls  numerous, 
flatly  convex,  sutures  impressed,  the  last  whorl  produced  into  a 
canal ;  aperture  small,  lip  varicose,  denticulated  within. 

Length,  8  mill. 

West  Indies. 

I  reproduce  Reeve's  description  and  figure  :  the  species  has 
not  been  recognized  by  collectors.  I  am  strongly  inclined  to 
consider  it  a  worn  specimen  or  a  variety  of  C.  monilifera,  in 
which  the  revolving  riblets  have  disappeared  or  failed  to  be 
developed. 

C.  FULGIDA,  Reeve.     PL  53,  fig.  2. 

Shell  rather  elongated,  transparent  white, shining,  subangulated 
on  the  periphery :  painted  longitudinally  with  faint  waved  orange- 
brown  streaks  ;  lips  slightly  denticulated  within.

Length,  19  mill. 

Indian  Ocean,  Seychelles  Islands. 

Duclos  published  a  figure  with  name,  but  no  description  :  his 
specimen  was  possibly  denuded  of  its  coloring.  The  localities 
are  supplied  from  Kiener's.  monograph,  although  the  shell  figured 
by  Kiener  is  so  different  (fig.  4)  that  it  may  well  be  another 
species.

whorls  rather  flat,  the  last  contracted  and  grooved  at  the  base, 
slightly  recurved  ;  aperture  small,  lip  varicose,  slightly  notched

Shell  small,  elongated,  attenuated  at  both  extremities,  uni- 
colored,  fuscous;  whorls  six,  longitudinally  costate,  the  costse 
covering  half  the  last  whorl,  which  is  lirate  at  the  base;  columella 
sinuous ;  lip  slightly  thickened,  plicate  or  subdentate  within.

C.  SERTULARIARUM,  d'Orb.     PI.  53,  figs.  9,  10. 

Shell  elongated,  smooth,  striate  at  base,  sometimes  slightly 
longitudinally  folded  on  the  body-whorl;  yellowish-white,  faintly

Shell  elongated,  subcylindrical,  recurved  at  the  base,  upper 
whorls  minutely  ribbed,  all  the  others  covered  with  close,  fine 
spiral  striae  ;  outer  lip  sinuated  above,  thickened  and  dentate 
within  ;  purplish,  with  usually  twro  bands  of  chestnut  dots.

Island  of  Capul,  Philippines;  Mauritius. 

With  this  species  I  unite  C.  lumbricus,  Reeve  (fig.  13),  from 
the  same  locality ;  it  is  described  as  smooth,  but  the  revolving 
striae  are  represented  on  the  original  figure — which  I  have  copied ; 
the  shell  is  rosy  brown,  with  an  obscure  reticulated  pattern.  C. 
spicula  (fig.  14)  and  C.  clausilia,  Duclos  (fig.  15),  are  also 
synonyms. 

Yar.  ACUS,  Reeve.     PL  53,  fig.  16. 

Shell  longitudinally  minutely  ribbed  towards  the  apex;  yellow- 
ish, irregularly  longitudinally  streaked  with  orange-brown ;  lip 
simple,  scarcely  denticulated  within.  Length,  11  mill. 

This  shell  is  from  the  same  locality  as  the  preceding,  and  is, 
as  Reeve  sa}rs,  of  the  same  general  type. 

C.  FILOSA,  Angas.     PL  53,  fig.  17. 

Shell  elongately  fusiform,  varying  from  white  to  chocolate,  the 
lighter-colored  specimens  often  with  brown  maculations  at  the 
suture,  the  darker-colored  ones  frequently  with  whitish  sutural 
maculations ;  wrhorls  eight,  slightly  convex,  covered  by  fine 
revolving  striae;  outer  lip  slightly  thickened  externally  and 
dentated  within.  Length,  11  mill. 

New  South  Wales. 

Described  as  a  species  of  ^Esopus,  Gould  ;  but  the  only  char- 
acter which  it  seems  to  possess  in  common  with  that  genus  is 
the  unimportant  one  of  revolving  striae. 

C.  ATTENUATA,  Angas.     PL  53,  fig.  18. 

Shell  smooth,  shining,  moderately  solid;  whorls  eight,  very 
slightly  convex,  the  last  striate  at  the  base;  outer  lip  simple, 
arcuate  behind,  contracted  at  the  base,  with  an  external  brown 
varix  ;  brown,  paler  beneath  the  sutures.  Length,  9  mill.

Shell  oval-fusiform,  longitudinally  strongly  ribbed,  spire

C.  RUGOSA,  Sowb.     PL  54,  figs.  23-27. 

Shell  ovate,  tuberculate,  plicate  or  rudely  ribbed,  the  ribs  only 
developed  on  the  upper  half  of  the  body-whorl,  whole  surface 
with  coarse  revolving  striae ;  white,  stone-color  or  light  olivaceous, 
with  large  chocolate  clouds,  especially  on  the  back  of  the  body- 
whorl — which  is  sometimes  nearly  covered  with  this  color. 

Length,  18-22  mill. 

Panama. 

The  ordinary  appearance  of  adults  of  this  species  is  that  shown 
by  fig.  23  ;  sometimes  the  shell  is  narrower  and  less  rugose,  being 
ribbed  rather  than  tuberculate  (fig.  24). 

The  synonyms  are  G.  bicolor,  Kiener  (fig.  25),  and,  I  think, 
C  sinuata,  Sowerby  (figs.  26,  27).  The  latter  has  the  characters 
of  C.  rugosa,  except  that  the  outer  lip  has  a  projecting  sinus 
in  the  middle;  it  is  a  remarkable-looking  shell  and  Sowerby 
thinks  it  "  almost  generically  distinct,"  yet  places  it  in  Anachis. 
Judging  from  the  figure,  1  place  it  here  us  a  monstrosity  of  this 
specif*.

possibly  an  extreme  variety  of  the  last  species. 

C.  COSTELLATA,  Sowb.     PI.  54,  figs.  28-31. 

Shell  narrowly  longitudinally  ribbed,  sometimes  slightly  tuber- 
culate  on  the  shoulder  of  the  body-whorl;  yellowish  brown  closely

slightly  dentate,  sinuous  behind.  Length,  16-20  mill. 

Mazatlan;  Panama;  Guatemala  (?);  Payta,  Peru. 

Nearly  intermediate  in  its  characters  between  G.  rugosa,  Sowb., 
and  G.  fluctuata,  Sowb.  C.  valida,  Reeve  (fig.  29),  from  Gua- 
temala, is  described  from  a  worn  specimen  of  this  species.  C. 
uaricosa,  Gaskoin  (fig.  30),  is  also  a  synonym  ;  its  locality,  Payta, 
Peru,  is  probabty  erroneous.  I  add  also  C.  macrostoma  (Anton) 
Reeve  (fig.  31),  erroneously  said  to  inhabit  the  coast  of  California. 

C.  FLUCTUATA,  Sowb.     PI.  54,  figs.  32-35. 

Shell  wide  ovate,  with  somewhat  turreted  spire,  nodulotisly 
ribbed,  ribs  sharp,  curved  on  the  body-whorl,  or  sometimes 
obsolete  below  the  shoulder  ;  white,  with  close,  zigzag  chocolate 
markings ;  epidermis  yellowish,  translucent,  thin ;  outer  lip 
broadly  sinuous  behind,  callously  thickened,  and  minutely 

dentate  within.     Length,  16-21  mill.

C.  CORONATA,  Sowb.     PL  54,  figs.  36,  37. 

Shell  yellowish  white,  sometimes  stained  with  chestnut,  with 
zigzag  longitudinal  dark  chestnut  or  chocolate  lines ;  upper  part

C.  VARIA,  Sowb.     PI.  54,  tigs.  38-41. 

Longitudinally  narrow!}7  ribbed,  decussated  by  revolving  lines 
which  are  often  more  or  less  obsolete  except  towards  the  base  of 
the  body-whorl;  marbled  with  chestnut  or  chocolate  and  white, 
sometimes  almost  covered  with  the  darker  color,  but  always 
having  a  more  or  less  defined  central  white  band,  which  some- 
times reappears  at  the  sutures  of  the  spire-whorls ;  outer  lip  of 

aperture  ribbed  within.     Length,  1  inch. 

Panama,  Mazatlan. 

This  appears  to  be  the  shell  which  Carpenter  described  as 
Anachis  (?  costellata,  var.)  pachydermata.  C.  scalarina,  Sowb. 
(fig.  39)  is  a  state  of  this  species  in  which  the  whorls  are  unusually 
shouldered.  C.  veleda,  Duclos  (fig.  40),  and  C.  aphonia,  Duclos 
(fig.  41),  are  both  synonymous  with  C.  varia,  the  latter  with  the 
shouldered  variety. 

C.  CRUENTATA,  Moi'Ch. 

An  untigured  species,  said  to  generally  resemble  C.  daliola, 
Duclos  (=  C.  varia,  Sowb.),  but  with  longer  spire,  and  smaller, 
broader  aperture.  The  characteristic  coloring  consists  of  blood- 
red  spots,  usually  upon  alternate  ribs,  some  in  the  interspaces  of 
the  ribs  ;  some  specimens  have-  only  a  single  red  spot,  others  arc 
entirely  white.  Length,  6  mill.

C.  LYRATA,  Sowb.     PL  54.  fig.  42. 

Shell  sharply  longitudinally  ribbed,  decussated  by  revolving 
striae,  which  are  frequently  obsolete  except  at  the  lower  part  of 
the  body-whorl ;  yellowish,  articulated  by  two  bands  of  chestnut 
spots  appearing  on  the  ribs  ;  aperture  white  ;  lip  sinuated  behind, 

plicate  within.     Length,  18-22  mill. 

Panama. 
C.  FULVA,  Sowb.     PI.  54,  fig.  43. 

Shell  reddish  brown,  with  distant  narrow  longitudinal  plica-

chestnut  spots  and  zigzag  markings,  more  or  less  interrupted  by 
the  smooth  interstices  of  the  ribs ;  aperture  white  within,  the 
outer  lip  sinuous  behind,  and  plicate  within. 

Length,  15-18  mill. 

West  Indies. 

C.  lineolatq,  Kiener  'fig.  45),  is  a  synonym,  an<jl  I  suppose 
that  C.  Calif ornica,  Reeve  (fig.  46),  a  species  which  does  not 
inhabit  "  California,"  may  also  be  placed  here,  if  the  figure  may 
be  depended  on. 

C.  ADELINE,  Tryon.     PI.  54,  fig.  47. 

Shell  closely  longitudinally  ribbed,  with  revolving  striae, 
apparent  principally  in  the  interstices  of  the  ribs ;  ivory-white, 
shining,  with  two  broad  bands  of  chocolate  spots,  arranged  in 
checker-board  fashion,  and  leaving  a  central  band  of  white;  lip 
with  external  varix,  sinuated  behind  and  dentate  within  ;  aper- 
ture white.  Length  (decollated),  15  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Six  fine  specimens  are  before  me,  all  of  them  decollated.  The 
nearest  ally  is-  C.  Terpsichore,  but  this  shell  differs  in  its  more 
numerous,  less  tuberculated  ribs,  in  the  disposition  of  the  color- 
spots  and  their  form. 

C.  SUFFUSA,  Sowb.     PI.  55,  fig.  49. 

Shell  distantly  longitudinally  ribbed,  with  shouldered  whorls, 
the  ribs  sometimes  obsolete  on  the  body-whorl,  which  is  striate 
at  the  base ;  white,  with  longitudinal  streaks  and  spots  of 
chestnut,  often  forming  interrupted  revolving  bands.

Lord  Hood's  Islands  (011  Meleagrina). 

This  species  was  not  included  by  Sowerby  in  his  subsequently 
published  monograph  in  the  "  Thesaurus,"  and  is  not  mentioned 
by  other  monographers ;  I  do  not  know  it. 

C.  MULTIVOLUTA,  Reeve.     PL  55,  fig.  55.

aperture  rather  small,  lip  thickened,  dentate  within. 

Length,  11  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  species ;  it  wras  figured  and 
described  by  Reeve  under  the  name  of  C.  fenestrata,  but  that 
name  being  preoccupied  by  C.  B.  Adams,  I  change  it  as  above. 

C.  STRENELLA,  Duclos.     PL  55,  figs.  5f ,  58. 

Spire  whorls  somewhat  flattened,  shell  longitudinally  ribbed, 
crossed  by  revolving  stride  ;  yellowish  with  chestnut  markings

purple-red ;  whorls  convex,  sutures  excavated ;  aperture  small, 
denticulated  within.  Length,  10  mill. 

Habitat  unknown  (Cumingian  Coll.). 

I  have  not  seen  this  species. 

C.  JASPIDEA,  Sowb.  *P1.  55,  fig.  60. 

Shell  with  longitudinal,  rounded  plications,  usually  becoming- 
obsolete  towards  the  middle  of  the  body-whorl,  the  lower  part 
of  which  is  covered  by  revolving  grooves  ;  there  are  sometimes 
faint  revolving  grooves  in  the  interstices  of  the  plications  ;  yel- 
lowish brown,  tinged,  especially  on  the  spire,  with  pink;  outer 
lip  sinuous  behind,  more  or  less  dentate  and  thickened  on  the 
inner  margin.  Length,  12  mill.

Viti  Islands  (Godeffroy). 
C.  FILAMENTOSA,  Duuker.     PI.  55,  fig.  62. 

Slightly   but   closely   longitudinally   ribbed,   with    revolving 
striae  at  the  base  ;  outer  lip  varicosely  thickened,  smooth  within 
sinuate  behind,  terminating  in  a  short  but  distinctly  constricted

the  ribs  into  tubercles ;  yellowish  white,  reticulated  with  light 
chestnut;  outer  lip  scarcely  thickened,  smooth  within. 

Length,  10  mill.  Havana,  Cuba  (Arango). 

Sowerb3T's  and  Reeve's  figures  of  this  species  do  not  represent 
it,  but  the  next  species.  The  shell  is  allied  to  C.  jaspidea  in 
form,  but  is  somewhat  more  slim.  Kiener  gives  (erroneously) 
the  Mediterranean  Sea  as  locality  for  this  species.  C.  plicatulum . 
Dunker,  from  Venezuela, described  thirty  years  ago  and  remain- 
ing unfigured  and  unrecognized,  may  possibly  be  this  species. 
Many  years  subsequently,  Dunker  again  used  the  same  specific 
name  for  another  form. 

C.  ELEGANTULA,  Morch.     PL  55,  figs.  64,  65. 

Shell  pale,  shining,  flamed  and  spotted  with  fulvous  orange ;

C.  VALGA,  Gould.     PI.  55,  fig.  61. 

Small,  solid,  ovate-lanceolate,  somewhat  gibbous;  whorls  nine 
to  ten,  slightly  con  vex,  the  penultimate  one  disproportionally  large 
so  as  to  give  the  shell  a  gibbous  or  distorted  form ;  with  fine 
longitudinal  riblets,  becoming  obsolete  on  the  upper  part  of  the 
body-whorl ;  rostrum  somewhat  elongated  ;  suture  linear,  deeply 
impressed;  aperture  narrow,  ribbed  within.  Pale  fawn-color, 

encircled  by  chestnut  lines.     L.  12,  diam.  5  mill. 

Samoa  Islands. 

The  above  description  indicates  a  shell  very  like  C.  jaspidea, 
Sowb.,  but  the  figure  (which  I  copy)  does  not  correspond  with 
it.  I  am  almost  convinced,  however,  that  it  =ja,spidea. 

C.  ACUTA,  Stearns.     PI.  55,  fig.  66. 

Shell  small,  slender,  acutely  fusiform;  whorls  eight,  with 
about  fifteen  nearly  equidistant  rounded  longitudinal  ribs,  which 
are  absent  on  the  apex  and  adjoining  whorl  and  become  obsolete 
just  below  the  angulated  periphery  of  the  body-whorl — which 
has  distinct  basal  revolving  strife ;  sometimes  the  ribs  are  sub- 
nodulous;  white  with  revolving  sienna  lines  and  blotches,  or 


ANACHIS.  159 

light  sienna-yellow,  with  whitish  blotches  and  brown  linear 
markings  ;  aperture  white  ;  the  outer  lip  simple,  moderately 
thickened,  slightly  shouldered  and  curved  above,  five  to  seven 
dentate  within.  L.  *26,  diam.  '08  in. 

Egmont  Key,  W.  Coast  of  Florida. 

C.  AVARA,  Say,     PI.  55,  figs.  67-71. 

Shell  somewhat  A^ariable  in  outline,  the  spire  longer  or  shorter 
and  the  body-whorl  correspondingly  narrower  or  broader,  with 
numerous  longitudinal  plications,  usually  extending  to  about 
the  middle  of  the  bod3T-whorl,  and  revolving  striae,  conspicuous  • 
towards  its  base,  and  elsewhere  apparent  in  the  interstices  of  the 
plications  ;  yellowish  white,  more  or  less  blotched  or  reticulated 
irregularly  with  chestnut  or  chocolate,  sometimes  uniform  yel- 
lowish white.  Length,  13-20  mill. 

Atlantic  Coast  of  the  United  States ;  Tampa  Bay, 

Gulf  Coast  of  Florida. 

C.  Lafresnayi,  Fischer  and  Bernardi  (fig.  68),  from  the  Island 
of  Marie  Galante,  West  Indies,  and  G.  similis,  Ravenel  (fig.  69), 
are  S3rnonyms ;  the  latter  being  founded  on  the  long,  narrow 
forms.  Between  these  and  a  stumpy  specimen  of  C.  avara,  there 
is  much  difference,  but  my  extensive  suites,  from  every  portion 
of  our  coast  exhibit  every  intermediate  form,  and  show  a  varia- 
bility as  to  sculpture  and  coloring  suggestive  of  a  future  great 
reduction  in  the  number  of  admitted  species  in  the  genus.  C. 
semiplicata,  Stearns  (figs.  70,  71),  from  the  West  Coast  of  Florida, 
is  another  long,  narrow  form,  with  fewer  longitudinal  ribs,  yel- 
lowish, reticulated  with  light  chestnut.  At  first  sight  it  appears 
very  distinct  from  the  typical  avara,  but  is  too  close  to  Ravenel's 
C.  similis.  I  have  W.  Florida  specimens  before  me  which  supply 
the  intermediate  forms.  Another  probable  synonym  is  C.  trans- 
lirata,  Ravenel  (unfigured),  which  is  elevated  conic,  with  close 
ribs  and  five  equidistant  revolving  striae  on  the  upper  half  of 
the  body-whorl,  and  on  those  of  the  spire,  nodulous  at  the  suture 
and  the  nodules  white.  Length,  nearly  1  inch. 

C.  PHYLTNA,  Duclos.     PL  55,  figs.  72,  73.

Shell  distantly  ribbed,  the  first  whorls  of  the  spire  more  closely 
and  finely  ribbed ;  yellowish  brown,  with  numerous  narrow 

chestnut  revolving  lines.     Length,  13  mill.

This  appears  (like  the  last)  to  be  nearty  related  to  C.  avara.

C.  COSTULATA,  Cantraine.     PL  56,  fig.  11. 

Shell  white,  sometimes  with  a  yellowish  or  rosy  tinge ;   with 
narrow  distant  longitudinal  ribs, and  well-impressed  sutures;  ribs 
becoming  evanescent  towards  the  base  of  the  body-whorl ;  whole 
surface  covered  with  very  close,  minute  revolving  striae ;    lip 
scarcely  thickened,  slightly  dentate  within.     Length,  10  mill. 
Boreal.     Norway,  England,  Nova  Scotia,  Rhode  Island,

C.  ROSACEA,  Gould.     PL  56,  figs.  18,  19.. 

Shell  small,  acutely  conic,  white,  tinged  with  rose-color;  whorls 
six,  covered  with  minute  spiral  lines  ;  those  of  the  spire  finely 
or  obsoletely  ribbed,  sometimes  smooth,  body-whorl  without  ribs, 
outer  lip  sharp,  without  teeth  within.  Length,  1*5  mill.

Shell  thin,  delicate,  translucent,  white,  nearly  smooth,  elon- 
gated, with  long  tapering  acute  spire.  Whorls  eight,  broadly 


ANACHIS.  161 

and  evenly  rounded  ;  suture  somewhat  impressed,  but  not  deep, 
frequently  narrowly  channeled  ;  surface,  except  anteriorly  and 
on  the  canal,  destitute  of  spiral  lines,  and  of  any  indication  of 
ribs,  but  covered  with  very  close,  almost  microscopic  lines  of 
growth,  which  give  the  surface  a  dull  appearance  when  dry ;  on 
the  canal  and  extending  to  the  anterior  part  of  the  body-whorl 
are  a  number  of  distinct  spiral  lines  becoming  faint  opposite  the 
middle  of  the  aperture;  fine, microscopic  spiral  striations  some- 
times appear  on  the  lower  whorls.  The  nucleus  is  larger  than  in 
/4.  rosacea,  rounded,  depressed  and  spiral, but  somewhat  mammil- 
lary.  The  aperture  is  small,  oblong-ovate  ;  the  outer  lip  is  sharp 
at  the  edge,  but  in  adult  shells  has  a  distinct  thickening  a  little 
back  from  its  margin ;  the  inner  surface  is  usually  smooth,  but 
in  some  adult  specimens  there  are  four  or  five  small,  transversely 
oblong  tubercles,  back  from  the  margin,  and  a  larger  conical 
tubercle  at  the  base  of  the  canal.  Columella  sigmoid,  a  little 
excavated  in  the  middle,  and  with  a  distinct,  raised,  spiral  fold 
at  its  inner  edge,  anteriorly ;  canal  short,  open,  very  slightly 
curved  ;  epidermis  thin,  closely  adherent,  minutely  lamellose 
along  the  lines  of  growth,  pale  greenish  gray,  or  yellowish  white. 
Length  of  one  of  the  largest  specimens,  12  mm.,  breadth  4  mm., 
length  of  aperture,  5  mm.,  its  breadth  1-8  mm.  Stouter  and 
shorter  examples  occur. 

Off  Martha's  Vineyard,  in  65  to  487  fathoms,  1880  and 

1881  (U.  S.  Fish  Commission).     Off  Chesapeake  Bay, 
300  fathoms  fCapt.  Tanner).     Taken  at  many  stations. 

This  species  resembles  G.  rosacea,  of  which  I  formerly  sup- 
posed it  to  be  a  deep-water  variety.  A  more  careful  examination 
of  a  larger  and  better  series  convinces  me  that  the}^  are  distinct. 
The  present  species  is  a  more  slender  and  elongated,  and  far 
more  delicate  shell,  and  is  destitute  of  the  impressed  spiral  lines 
that  cover  the  whorls,  both  in  that  species  and  G.  Holbollii,  and 
is  without  any  traces  of  transverse  ribs,  on  the  upper  whorls. 
The  fold  on  the  columella  edge  and  the  submarginal  thickening 
of  the  outer  lip  are  also  good  distinctive  marks,  but  the  great 
difference  in  the  nucleus  is,  perhaps,  of  still  greater  importance. 
Fresh  specimens,  when  wet,  are  so  transparent  that  the  internal 
form  of  the  columella  can  often  be  seen  through  the  shell. 

The  above  is  Prof.  Yerrill's  description  in  full.

This  shell  is  very  abundant  in  many  of  our  deeper  dredgings, 
on  muddy  bottoms.  It  resembles  the  shallow  water  species, 
C.  zonalis  (=  G.  dissimilis,  Stirnp.),  in  form,  except  that  it  is 
somewhat  shorter  and  stouter,  with  the  whorls  more  convex,  the 
columella  more  excavated,  the  aperture  a  little  wider  and  the 
canal  slightly  bent  back  at  the  tip,  but  the  shell  is  translucent 
and  glossy,  and  the  color  is  pure  white  or  pinkish  white,  except 
near  the  apex,  where  it  is  tinged  with  pale  brown  or  pink,  in 
fresh  specimens.  The  surface  is  smooth,  except  slight  lines  of 
growth  and  a  few  faint  spiral  lines,  on  the  canal  anteriorly.  The 
nucleus  is  distinctly  larger  than  in  the  typical  C.  zonalis.  It  is 
probable  that  this  form  is  a  distinct  species.

C.  YERRILLT,  Dall. 

Shell  slender,  conical,  yellowish  white,  whorls  seven  ;  polished, 
but  covered  when  fresh  by  a  shaggy  brown  epidermis,  which  is 
irregularly  lamellated ;  nucleus  naticoid,  shining  translucent  white ; 
ten  or  twelve  close  spiral  lines  on  the  pillar  and  basal  surface, 
with  occasionally  microscopical  spiral  lines  on  other  parts  of  the 
shell ;  longitudinal  sculpture  consisting  in  some  specimens  of 
nine  to  fourteen  plications,  stronger  at  the  posterior  end  on  each 
whorl,  forming  there  slight  tubercles  which  form  a  waved  sutural 
line — in  others  the  sculpture  is  fainter,  not  tuberculate  at  the 
suture,  and  becoming  evanescent  on  the  larger  whorls  at  a  short 
distance  in  advance  of  it;  pillar  stout,  a  little  twisted,  and  with 
the  canal  distinctly  recurved,  with  a  smooth  white  callus  ;  outer 
lip  slightly  thickened  and  reflected,  somewhat  contracted  anter- 
iorly to  form  the  short  wide  canal,  and  having  internally  about 
midway  between  its  junction  with  the  body-whorl  and  the  canal 
a  single  small  rounded  pustule-shaped  callus  ;  there  are  no  other 
denticles  except  this,  which  is  invariably  present  in  adult 
specimens.

ANACHIS.  163 

187T-79  by  the  dredgings  of  the  U.  S.  Coast  Survey  Steamer 
Blake,  and  described  by  Mr.  W.  H.  Dall.  He  says :  "  This 
species  is  most  nearly  allied  to  Astyris  rosacea,  Gould,  from 
which  the  faintly  sculptured  specimens  differ  by  the  smaller 
mouth  in  proportion  to  the  spire,  and  the  characters  of  the  epi- 
dermis and  aperture ;  the  character  of  the  plications  also  differs 
from  that  of  A.  rosacea.  The  solitary  pustular  denticle  is  a  very 
peculiar,  and,  as  far  as  I  am  aware,  unique  feature."  Unfigured. 
G.  strix,  Watson,  and  its  var.  subacta,  are  evidently  synonyms : 
the  species  has  not  been  figured,  but  the  description  is  sufficient 
to  indicate  this. 

C.  STRICT  A,  Watson. 

Shell  short  and  dumpy,  with  a  rather  high,  scalar,  blunt  spire,  a 
short  but  broadish  last  whorl,  and  a  small,  slightly  reverted  snout ; 
there  are  on  the  last  whorl  twelve  longitudinal  ribs,  separated 
by  furrows  three  times  their  width,  these  ribs  increase  in  number 
rapidly  up  the  spire ;  there  is  a  slight  tubercular  ridge  at  tlie 
top  of  the  whorls,  and  obsolete  spiral  striae  below,  becoming 
more  distinct  towards  the  base  of  the  body-whorl ;  color  porcel- 
lanous  white  ;  apex  blunt,  smooth  ;  whorls  six,  scarcely  convex  ; 
mouth  small,  lip  contracted  and  slightly  curved  above,  with  ten 
small  teeth  within,  of  which  the  highest  is  remote  from  the  top 
and  larger  than  the  others ;  just  at  this  point  is  a  slight  open 
false  sinus.  L.  -25,  cliam.  -13  ;  mouth  long  -11,  broad  '06  in. 
Near  St.  Thomas,  W.  L,  390  fms.,  in  coral  mud.  (Challenger  Exped.) 
If  this  should  prove  to  be  an  older  state  of  the  next  species, 
it  will  become  a  synonj^m  thereto. 

C.  AMPHISSELLA,  Dall. 

Shell  small,  stout,  blunt  tipped,  yellowish  white,  of  four  and  a 
half  whorls  ;  nucleus  large,  white,  shining,  smooth,  of  one  and  a 
half  whorls  ;  sculpture  of  numerous  (on  the  last  whorl  twenty-one) 
straight,  subequal  plications  with  about  equal  interspaces,  begin- 
ning at  the  suture,  passing  clear  over  the  whorl,  and  fading  out 
only  when  near  the  canal ;  also  faint  lines  of  growth ;  spiral 
sculpture  of  numerous  equal  fine  rounded  threads  (twenty-one 
on  the  last  whorl)  with  slightly  wider  interspaces,  covering  the 
whole  shell  except  the  nucleus ;  pillar  short,  stout,  a  little  con-

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  unfigured  and  apparently  imma- 
ture species. 

C.  TEOPHANIA,  Duclos.     PL  56,  fig.  80. 

Shell  distantly  and  rather  broadly  longitudinally  ribbed,  with 
revolving  striae  in  the  interstices,  and  at  the  base  of  the  body- 
whorl  ;  chestnut,  variegated  with  a  darker  tint.  Length,  10  mill.

Shell  turreted,  shining,  longitudinally  folded,  cut  into  nodules 
by  an  impressed  line  under  the  suture ;  folds  evanescent  on  the 
body-whorl,  which  has  revolving  striae  towards  the  base ;  outer 
lip  thickened  and  plicate  within ;  grayish  white  with  three  light 

chestnut  bands.     Length,  11  mill. 

Guinea,  West  Africa. 
C.  SAGRA,  d'Orb.     PL  56,  figs.  83,  84. 

Shell  oval-oblong,  shining,  very  slightly  longitudinally  plicated 
except  the  last  whorl  of  the  spire,  which  is  smooth,  with  revolv- 
ing grooves  at  the  base  of  the  body-whorl,  spire  elongated  conic, 
with  sharp  apex,  composed  of  seven  somewhat  convex  whorls; 
mouth  sinuous ;  lip  thickened,  dentate  within ;  columella  with 
two  slightly  marked  plications  ;  white,  tinged  with  rose-color  on 

the  spire.     Length,  8  mill. 

West  Indies. 

The  figure  represents  a  smooth  shell,  but  the  description  is  as 
above.  I  have  not  seen  the  species.  C.  Kieneria,  Duel.  (fig.  84), 
appears  to  resemble  it  very  closely,  and  may  be  identical ;  it  has 
not  been  described. 

C.  ELECTONA,  Duclos.     PL  56,  fig.  85. 

Body-whorl  smooth,  spire  closely  and  finely  longitudinally 
ribbed  ;  white,  spire  tinged  with  rose-color  ;  lip  sparsely  dentate.

blotched  with  white,  spire  sharp,  sutures  impressed,  whoi 
longitudinally  ribbed,  decussated  with  spiral  grooves  ;  aperture 
rather  small,  denticulately  ridged  within. 

Gulf  of  California  (Lieut.  Shipley). 

This  species  has  not  been  recognized  by  Carpenter  nor  by 
subsequent  naturalists.  The  locality  must  be  considered  doubtful, 
and  the  figure  is  possibly  a  magnified  one. 

C.  SAINT-PAIRIANA,  Caillet.     PI.  56,  fig.  87. 

Shell  elongated,  acuminated,  solid,  reddish  rose-color,  under  a 
light  olivaceous  epidermis;  embryonal  whorls  smooth,  several 
subsequent  ones  of  the  spire  closely  and  finely  costulate,  body- 
whorl  without  ribs,  but  with  revolving  striae  below ;  aperture 
narrow,  the  lip  with  external  varix  and  denticulated  within; 
operculum  thin,  pellucid,  corneous,  obliquely  striated. 

Length,  23  mill. 

Isl.  of  Marie  Galante,  West  Indies. 
C.  CUSPIDATA,  Marrat. 

Shell  elongated  fusiform, attenuated  below,  spire  sharp-pointed ; 
whorls  longitudinally  costate  and  transversely  sulcate,  ribs  sub- 
granulated  ;  pallid  gray,  or  fulvous,  maculated  with  chestnut, 
epidermis  dusky ;  columella  arcuate,  labium  callous ;  aperture 
narrow,  lip  lirate  within. 

West  Africa. 

Unfigured.  No  dimensions  given.  The  description  will  suit 
several  species  already  well  known. 

Section  VII.  Senrnella,  Pease. 

Shell  very  small,  fusiform,  longitudinally  costate,  usually 
decussated  ;  lip  slightly  emarginate  above,  lirate  or  denticulate 
within. 

Differs  from  Anachis  principally  in  its  minute  size. 

C.  LACHRYMA,  Gask.     PI.  56,  fig.  48. 

Shell  shortly  fusiform,  attenuated  at  each  extremity ;  snow- 
white,  faintly  stained  with  orange-brown ;  surface  entirely  can- 
cellated, spire  conical,  densely  grained ;  aperture  elongated 
narrow,  lip  notched  above.  Length,  8  mill. 

Sandwich  Islands  ;   Upolu. 
C.  TROGLODYTES,  Souverb.      PI.  56,  fig.  89. 

Shell     longitudinally    ribbed,    with    equal    interstices,    and

revolving  striae  at  the  base  of  the  body-whorl,  subtranslucent, 
shining,  with  a  lighter  band  at  the  sutures  and  an  interrupted 
brown  line  below  it,  another  light  band  below  the  periphery,  and 
the  basal  portion  of  the  body-whorl  checkered  with  brown  spots ; 
aperture  narrow,  the  lip  minutely  denticulated  within. 

Length,  3'15  mill. 

New  Caledonia;  Papua  (Tapparone-Canefri) . 

C.  PEASEI,  von  Martens. 

Shell  fusiform,  minute,  attenuated  at  both  ends,  longitudinally 
ribbed ;  color  variable,  light  brown  with  transverse  lines  of  a 
darker  color  encircling  the  whorls,  or  with  longitudinal  undu- 
lating lines,  or  ornamented  with  oblong  square  brown  spots,  or 
light  brown  dotted  with  white.  Length,  3'5  mill. 

Sandwich  Islands. 
C.  CRASSILABRIS,  Reeve.     PI.  56,  fig.  90. 

Shell  ovate,  finely  cancellated ;  yellowish,  encircled  with  two 
bands  of  red-brown  arrow-headed  marks,  purple-spotted  at  the 
base  ;  spire  rather  short,  sharp  ;  aperture  small,  lip  very  thick, 

varicose. 

Habitat  unknown. 

I  am  not  acquainted  with  this  species.  The  figure  is  probably 
much  enlarged,  although  it  bears  no  size-mark. 

C.  PYGM^A,  Sowb.     PI.  56,  figs.  91,  92. 

Whorls  obliquely  ribbed  above ;  white,  with  three  revolving 
rows  of  chestnut  spots,  sometimes  coalescing  into  blotches. 

Length,  6  mill. 

West  Columbia,  Cape  St.  Lucas. 

C.  ATOMELLA,  Duclos.     PI.  56,  fig.  93. 

Shell  pure  white,  longitudinally  ribbed ;  aperture  peculiarly 
contracted  by  a  plate-like  thickening  of  the  inner  margin  of  the 

outer  lip.     Length,  8  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

This  shell  has  not  been  described.  C.  ornata,  Pease  (not 
Ravenel),  has  been  distributed  under  this  name,  and  Reeve  has 
figured  for  it  C.  atrata,  Gould. 

C.  GARRETTI,  Tryon.     PI.  56,  fig.  94. 

Shell  rather  stoutly  fusiform ;  spire  slender,  elongate ;  longi- 
tudinal ribs  rounded,  prominent, contiguous, sometimes  becoming

obsolete  on  lower  part  of  last  whorl ;  outer  lip  denticulate  within ; 
ribs  white,  sometimes  banded  with  white,  blotched  or  spotted 
irregularly  with  iridescent  reddish  brown,  last  whorl  ornamented 
with  flexuous  lines  of  reddish  chestnut.  Length,  3  mill. 

Tahiti. 

Varies  much  in  the  disposition  of  its  colors,  but  the  opaque- 
white  ribs  and  flexuous  lines  on  the  last  whorl  are  constant. 
Described  by  Mr.  Pease  as  Citharopsis  ornata,  but  as  Citharopsis 
is  a  synonym  of  Columbella,  and  as  the  specific  name  ornata  is 
preoccupied  by  Ravenel  for  a  post-pliocene  species,  I  make  the 
change  of  name  as  above. 

C.  GBACILIS,  Pease.     PI.  56,  fig.  95. 

Shell  slender,  elongately  fusiform,  shining ;  longitudinal  ribs 
usually  rather  prominent,  sometimes  evanescent,  interstices 
generally  showing  revolving  striae,  lower  part  of  body -whorl 
distinctly  striate ;  sometimes  the  ribs  are  obsolete  and  the 
revolving  striae  become  prominent  over  the  entire  body-whorl ; 
yellowish,  sometimes  variegated  with  chestnut,  and  frequently 
with  chestnut  spots  arranged  in  a  superior  band. 

Length,  4-6  mill.  Viti  Isles. 

Pretty  constant  in  form,  but  varying  in  sculpture  and  coloring. 
Pease  described  from  a  not  perfectly  adult  specimen ;  Dunker 
described  the  adult  under  the  name  of  C.pusiola.  A  portion  of 
the  original  lot  of  the  latter  species  is  before  me.  Mr.  Garrett 
believes  C.  pusiola  to  =  C.  lachryma,  Gaskoin  (p.  165\ 

C.  T^NIATA,  Phil.     PI.  56,  fig.  96. 

Shell  with  rounded  whorls,  and  well-impressed  suture,  spire 
subturreted;  tubercularly  ribbed  beneath  the  sutures;  yellowish 
white  with  revolving  lines  and  blotches  of  chestnut ;  aperture 
small,  lip  notched  above,  denticulate  within.  Length,  6  mill. 

Mazatlan;   Cape  St.  Lucas. 

G.  Gaskoini,  Carp.,  and  C.  venusta,  Reeve  (fig.  96),  are  syno-

Shell  pure  white.     Length.  9'5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

I  can  give  no  information  concerning  this  shell,  which  is  figured 
but  not  described  ;  it  may  be  colorless  from  bleaching.

C.  ATRAMENTABIA,  Sowb.      PL  5G,  figs.  98,  99;    PL  43,  fig.  27  ; 
PL  57,  fig.  1. 

Shell  ventricose,  with,  sharp-pointed  spire,  thick,  closely 
spirally  grooved,  longitudinally  plicately  ribbed,  the  ribs  fading 
towards  the  lower  part ;  very  dark  chocolate,  obscurely  white 
spotted  ;  aperture  chocolate  ;  outer  lip  thickened  at  the  margin 
and  dentate  within.  Length,  8-5-10  mill. 

Galapagos  Islands;  Gulf  of  Nicoya,  Central  America. 

C.  lentiginosa,  Hinds  (t.  43,  fig.  27),  is  synonymous  and  C. 
pariolida,  Duclos  (fig.  1),  is  a  specimen  in  which  the  longitudinal 
plicae  are  not  developed  ;  a  not  unusual  form. 

C.  NIGRICANS,  Sowb.     PL  57,  fig.  2. 

Shell  cancellated  by  longitudinal  ribs  and  revolving  striae,  with 
usually  a  single  row  of  minute  granules  at  the  sutures ;  aperture 
rather  small,  lip  thickened  and  denticulated  within,  conspicuously 
notched  behind ;  dusky  brown  or  nearly  black,  sometimes 
obscurely  lighter-banded  on  the  middle  of  the  body-whorl,  and 
frequently  the  sutural  tubercles  form  a  narrow  white  band. 

Length,  8  mill. 

Panama,  Galapagos. 

C.  PARVA,  Sowb.     PL  57,  figs.  3-5. 

Minutely  longitudinally  ribbed,  the  interstices  with  fine 
revolving  striae  ;  yellowish  brown,  with  a  chestnut-colored  supe- 
rior band,  and  base.  Length,  5-8  mill. 

West  Coast  Central  America. 

The  shell  figured  by  Reeve  (fig.  3)  differs  much  from  the  type 
and  is  apparently  not  adult.  C.  pamila,  Duclos  (fig.  5)  appears 
to  be  synonymous. 

C.  SPADICEA,  Philippi.     PL  57,  fig.  6. 

Cylindrically  oblong,  acuminated  at  the  apex,  longitudinally 
ribbed,  and  decussated  by  faint  revolving  striae,  slightly  tuber- 
culated  at  the  sutures ;  dark  chocolate,  with  a  narrow  white 
band  on  the  periphery,  and  sutural  granules  also  whitish. 

Length,  9  mill.

A  narrower  shell  than  C.  nigricans,  with  similar  sculpture  and 
colors.

C.  OBESA,  C.  B.  Ad.     PL  57,  figs.  7-9,  20. 

Shell  ovately  ventricose,  longitudinally  ribbed,  a  little  crimped 
at  the  sutures,  with  fine  revolving  striae,  sometimes  obsolete 
except  towards  the  base  of  the  body-whorl ;  dusky  or  yellowish, 
chestnut-banded  near  the  suture,  and  again  on  the  middle  or  base 
of  body-whorl.  Length,  5-7  mill. 

West  Indies;  Mouth  of  St.  John's  River,  Florida. 

G.  cancellata,  G-askoin  (fig.  8),  is  founded  on  a  dead,  faded 
specimen  of  this  species.  Reeve's  description  of  C  obesa  is  very 
bad,  and  his  figure  does  not  correspond  with  his  description — 
nor  does  it  represent  the  species.  In  C.  decipiens,  Ad.  (fig.  9), 
the  ribs  are  early  evanescent  on  the  body-whorl,  and  the  aper- 
ture has  a  well-defined  marginal  varix ;  it  cannot  be  separated, 
even  as  a  variety. 

C.  OSTREICOLA,  E.  A.  Smith.     PL  57,  fig.  19. 

Minute,  subfusiform,  blackish  brown,  longitudinally  ribbed, 
ribs  slightly  nodulous  at  the  upper  part ;  transversely  grooved 
towards  the  base ;  spire  acute,  rather  longer  than  the  mouth ; 
whorls  six,  sloping,  scarcely  convex  ;  nucleus  smooth  ;  last  whorl 
somewhat  swollen,  contracted  towards  the  base  ;  aperture  oblong, 
dark  brown  within ;  lip  with  a  moderate  sinus  above,  denticulated 
within ;  canal  very  short ;  columella  with  a  nodulous  callosity 

above.     L.  4,  diam.  2  mill. 

Florida  (on  Ostrea  mrginica). 

Said  to  be  allied  to  C.  nigricans,  but  I  think  its  closest  rela- 
tionships are  with  C.  obexa,  Ads.  The  figure  represents  a  more 
stumpy  form  than  that  species,  but  the  description,  copied  above, 
indicates  no  differential  character. 

C.  ATRATA,  Gould.     PL  57,  figs.  10-17. 

Shell    plicately    ribbed,    with    revolving    striae  at   base ;    lip

(figs.  14-17).  The  figures  have  no  size-mark  attached,  yet  there 
can  be  little  doubt  that  they  are  greatly  magnified  ;  they  include 
shells  more  varied  in  color  than  anything  we  have  been  accus- 
tomed to  refer  to  C.  atrata,  yet  among  them  is  one  that  is  per-

I  include  in  the  synonymy  G.  Smithi,  Angas  (fig.  23),  from 
which  the  above  description  is  copied.  Mr.  Angas  changed  the 
name  of  lentiginosa,  Reeve,  preoccupied  by  Hinds,  to  C.  Darwini, 
but  as  Hinds'  species  is  a  synonym  of  C.  atramentaria,  Sowb., 
Reeve's  name  can  be  used.

lip  without  teeth.     L.  4,  diam.  1  mill. 

China  Seas  (Stimpson). 

Unfigured.  The  types  were  probably  destroyed  in  the  great 
Chicago  fire. 

Section  VIII.  Mitropsis,  Pease. 

The  only  character  in  the  description  by  which  this  group  is 
distinguished  from  Seminella  is  the  plicate  columella,  yet  these 
plications  appear  in  the  figure  of  the  only  species  to  be  con- 
nected with  the  external  basal  grooving ;  its  distinctness  from 
Seminella  must  be  considered  doubtful.  Pease  described  it  as  a 
genus  of  Mitridse. 

C.  PAUMOTENSIS,  Tryon.     PL  58,  fig.  56. 

Shell  fusiform,  much  attenuated  at  both  ends,  white,  shining, 
spire  small,  slender ;  whorls  longitudinally  ribbed ;  ribs  rather 
remote,  rounded,  descending  from  the  sutures,  last  whorl  gibbous 
on  its  right  side  ;  transversely  finely  striate  ;  sutures  widely  and 
deeply  grooved ;  base  grooved  transversely ;  canal  recurved, 

columella  four-plaited.     Length,  1  mill. 

Paumotus. 

"  The  callosity  bordering  the  inner  lip  gives  it  a  Columbelloid 
appearance."  The  above  is  Pease's  description  of  Mitropsis 
fusiformis :  the  specific  name  being  preoccupied  in  Columbella, 
I  am  forced  to  change  it. 

Section  IX.  Conidea,  Swainson. 

Shell  oval,  mitriform,  smooth,  with  moderately  elevated, 
convex  spire ;  inner  lip  reflected  in  front ;  outer  lip  incurved 
and  thickened  in  the  jniddle  and  crenulate  within. 


CONIDEA.  181 

C.  OVULATA,  Lam.     PL  59,  figs.  57,  58. 

Shell  covered  with  fine  revolving  striae ;  dark  chocolate-color 
irregularly  spotted,  clouded  or  strigated  with  white. 

Length,  12-15  mill. 

West  Indies,  on  pieces  of  madrepore,  stony  ground, 

1  to  2  feet  water. 

Many  specimens  are  proportionally  narrower  than  my  figure  ; 
I  have  also  before  me  a  narrow  variety  (C.  ovuloides,  C.  B.  Ad., 
fig.  58),  in  which  the  color  is  light  chestnut,  the  white  markings 
usually  including  an  irregular  central  band. 

C.  OBTUSA,  Sowb.     PL  59,  figs.  59,  60. 

Shell  oblong-cylindrical,  with  an  obtuse  but  sharp-pointed 
spire,  smooth ;  roseate  or  yellowish  with  chestnut  spots  or  zigzag 
lines  ;  sometimes  chestnut,  with  zigzag  lines  and  reticulations  of 
yellowish  white ;  epidermis  thin,  translucent,  finely  ridged ; 
interior  of  aperture  violet  or  purple.  Length,  12-16  mill. 

Viti  and  other  Polynesian  Islands. 

C.  MARMORATA,  Gray.     PL  59,  figs.  61,  62. 

Shell  fulvous  orange,  with  irregular  white  markings. 
Length,  11-14  mill. 

South  Australia  (Angas);  Philippines  (Cuming); 

Viti  Islands  (Garrett). 

Distinguished  from  the  last  species  at  once  by  its  form  and 
more  simple  coloring. 

C.  DORMITOR,  Sowb.     PL  59,  fig.  63. 

Shell  closely  marked  by  revolving  striae ;  violaceous,  under  a 
smooth,  semitransparent  chestnut  epidermis.  Length,  8  mill. 

West  Indies. 
C.  EGERFA,  Duclos.     PL  59,  fig.  64. 

Shell  yellowish,  clouded  with  light  chestnut ;  bodj^-whorl  some- 
what folded  on  the  back,  beneath  the  suture,  Length,  13  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 
C.  TRINGA,  Lam.     PL  59,  figs.  65,  66. 

Oblong,  cylindrical,  smooth,  under  a  very  thin  epidermis ; 
white,  with  chocolate  spots  and  stripes,  usually  arranged  in  a 
zigzag  longitudinal  manner.  Length,  •T-l  inch. 

New  Caledonia;  Viti  Islands;  Japan. 

A  minor  variety  of  this  species,  the  atlults  not  exceeding  't 


182  CONIDEA. 

inch  in  length,  appears  to  be  a  connecting  form  with  G.  pardalina, 
var.  sagena.  Valuta  tringa  of  Linnaeus  and  of  Lamarck's  first 
edition  is  a  difficult  species  to  make  out ;  it  has  been  referred, 
with  some  justice,  to  Mitra.  In  the  second  edition  of  Lam., 
Deshayes  repeats  the  original  description,  including  the  three- 
plicate  columella,  but  decides  that  the  shell  is  a  Columbella.  I  do 
not  think  he  had  good  grounds  for  this  decision,  but  as  the  shell 
I  herein  figure  has  become  known  to  conchologists  under  this 
specific  name  and  authority  it  appears  more  convenient  to  con- 
tinue to  use  them.  C.  undata,  Duclos  (fig.  66),  is  a  synonym. 

C.  FLAVA,  Brug.     PL  59,  figs.  67-72. 

Shell  cylindrically  oblong, smooth,  with  revolving  striae  towards 
the  base,  covered  by  a  thin  epidermis ;  orange-brown  to  choco- 
late, spotted  and  blotched  with  white,  interior  of  aperture 
usually  more  or  less  violaceous.  Length,  *75-l'l  inches. 

Indian  Ocean,  Japan,  Mauritius,  New  Caledonia,  Polynesia. 

I  figure  two  well-marked  types  of  coloring  in  this  species  ;  it 
ts  very  variable,  approaching  C.  tringa  on  the  one  side  and  G. 
discors  on  the  other,  and  it  is  not  unlikely  that  these,  as  well  as 
several  other  allied  species,  will  eventually  be  consolidated.  G. 
punctata,  Sowb.  (fig.  69),  C.  lugubris,  Kiener  (fig.  70),  G.  funi- 
culata,  Souv.  (fig.  71  \  are  synonyms.  G.  rubicundula,  Quoy 
(fig.  72),  may  possibly  belong  here  ;  it  is  unknown  to  me  except 
through  the  description  and  (apparently)  poor  figure. 

C.  DISCORS,  Gmelin.     PI.  59,  figs.  73-77. 

Shell  obovate,  with  short,  conically  convex  spire;  chestnut- 
colored  or  orange-red,  spotted  or  interruptedly  strigate  with 
white,  with  frequently  a  few  larger  white  spots  and  a  broad 
orange  sutural  band  ;  interior  of  aperture  often  violaceous. 

Length,  -75-1  inch. 

East  Africa,  Borneo,  Japan,  Philippines,  New  Guinea. 

The  synonyms  are  G.  semipunctata,  Lam.  (fig.  74),  G.  splendi- 
dula,  Sowb.  (fig.  75),  G.  zelina,  Duclos,  (fig.  7.7). 

C.  EUSTOMA,  Jousseaume.     PI.  59,  fig.  78. 

Shell  oblong,  obesely  acuminate,  smooth,  shining,  white  macu- 
lated with  chestnut ;  aperture  violet-tinted.  Length,  15  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

The  figure  appears  to  represent  a  shell  of  abnormal  growth. 


META,   STROMBINA.  183 

Section  X.  Meta,   Reeve. 

Shell  coniform,  with  short,  conic  spire ;  aperture  narrow, 
linear ;  outer  lip  nearly  straight,  crenulated  within. 

C.  PHILIPPINARUM,  Reeve.     PI.  59,   figs.  79-82 ;    PI.    60,   figs. 

83-8T. 

Shell  white,  with  longitudinal  zigzag  lines  and  spots  of 
chestnut,  sometimes  widened  and  darkened  so  as  to  form  an 
interrupted  superior  revolving  band ;  aperture  usually  white 
within.  Length,  -75-1-1  inches. 

Batavia,  Philippines. 

With  this  species  I  unite  C.  epamella,  Duclos  (fig.  81).  The 
following  are  all  probable  varieties  of  C.  Philippinarum. 

Var.  CONIFORMIS,  Sowb.     Fig.  82. 

Whorls  rather  sharply  angled  at  the  upper  part,  the  spire 
superficially  channeled  ;  white,  closely  reticulated  with  chestnut 

or  chocolate.     Length,  1*1  inches. 

Habitat  unknown. 
Yar.  CEDO-NULLI,  Reeve.     Figs.  83-87. 

Shell  chestnut,  conspicuously  blotched  with  white,  sometimes 
forming  a  sutural  band  of  alternating  white  and  chestnut  spots. 
G.  Dupontise,  Kiener  (fig.  84),  and  C.  macrostoma,  Anton  (fig.  85) 
appear  to  be  synonyms ;  the  latter  not  fully  adult. 

Yar.  DUBIA,  Sowb.     Figs.  86,  87. 

Shell  orange  or  rosy  orange,  sometimes  with  a  central  band  of 
white  and  chestnut  spots. 

Section  XI.  Strombina,  Mb'rch. 

Shell  fusiform,  turriculated  ;  spire  elevated,  sharp;  whorls 
gibbous,  nodulous ;  inner  lip  with  a  rather  thick  callus  ;  outer 
lip  thick,  sinuous  behind ;  anterior  canal  well  formed.  The 
group  is  characteristic  of  the  warm  and  tropical  seas  of  the 
West  Cc/ast  of  America. 

C.  BICANALIFERA,  Sowb.      PL  60,  fig.  88. 

Shell  smooth,  spirally  grooved  at  the  base;  lip  expanded  and 
margined  externally,  thickened  and  finely  crenulated  within, 
rostrated  posteriorly  and  separated  from  the  bodj^-whorl  by  a 
deep  channel ;  pale  livid,  longitudinally  painted  with  waved

pale  violaceous.     Length,  12-15  mill. 

Panama,  Galapagos  Is. 

C.  GIBBERULA,  Sowb.     PI.  60,  fig.  90  ;  PL  63,  fig.  71. 

Body-whorl  with  callous  humps  on  the  back  and  side ;  these 
are  white,  the  rest  of  the  surface  having  a  reticulation  of  chestnut 
lines  on  a  yellowish  white  surface  ;  lip  varicosely  thickened  exter- 
nally, smooth  or  slightly  crenulated  within.    Length,  12-16  mill. 
W.  Coast  of  Central  America;  Payta,  Peru  (d'Orb.). 

C.  CALLOSIUSCULA,  Tapparone-Canefri. 

Shell  fusiform,  solid,  shining,  luteo-corneous,  marked  with 
chestnut,  subpellucid  ;  whorls  irregularly  longitudinally  strigate 
or  subcostulate,  the  last  gibbous  and  callous  on  the  back,  sulcate 
at  the  base;  lip  thickened  and  white  externally,  slightly  dentate 

in  the  middle  internally.     L.  9,  cliam.  3'66  mill. 

Papuan  Islands. 

Unfigured.  Closely  allied  to  the  preceding,  but  smaller,  nar- 
rower, without  side  callus,  etc. 

C.  ALBERTISII,  Tapparone-Canefri. 

Resembling  the  preceding  species,  but  larger ;  luteo-corneous, 
with  an  articulated  zone  of  chestnut  and  white  at  the  suture,  and 
two  narrower  chestnut  zones  below,  marked  longitudinally  with 
irregular,  interrupted  chestnut  lines.  L.  11,  diam.  4  mill. 

Papuan  Islands. 

Unfigured.  Somewhat  larger  and  differently  colored  from  C. 
callosiuscula. 

C.  CLAVULUS,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  89. 

Shell  yellowish  white,  with  zigzag  or  reticulated  markings  of 
chestnut  or  chocolate ;  outer  lip  externally  greatly  thickened, 
the  posterior  canal  sometimes  in  advance  of  the  posterior  end, 
this  displacement  apparently  caused  by  a  callous  thickening  of 
the  hind  part  of  the  parietal  wall.  Length,  23  mill. 

Bay  of  Montija,  W.  Coast  Centr.  Am.     17  fms.  (Guming). 

Described  as  a  Pleurotoma,  but  the  position  of  the  sinus 
appears  to  be  merely  accidentally  displaced  by  the  development 
of  the  callus.  I  am  somewhat  doubtful  whether  this  is  really 
distinct  from  the  next  species. 


STROMBINA.  185 

C.  DORSATA,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  91. 

Yellowish  white,  maculated  and  closely  longitudinally  marked 
with  flexuous  or  zigzag  chestnut  lines ;  aperture  externally 
callously  thickened,  with  a  corresponding  thickening  on  the 
opposite  side  of  the  body-whorl,  and  a  hump  on  its  back. 

Length,  -8-1-1  inches. 

West  Coast  of  Columbia;  Central  America. 

C.  gibberula,  very  much  resembles  this  species,  but  is  much 
smaller. 

C.  PAVONINA,  Hinds.     PL  60,  figs.  92,  93. 

Shell  yellowish  white,  longitudinally,  flexuously  striped  and 
strigated  with  chocolate ;  striate  towards  the  base,  which  is 
narrowed  and  recurved ;  lip  callously  thickened  externally, 

denticulate  within.     Length,  22  mill. 

Panama. 
C.  Haneti,  Petit  (fig.  93),  is  a  synonym. 

C.  NIVEA,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  94. 

Whorls  strongly  plicate, with  the  interstices  and  base  striate; 

white.     Length,  19  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Reeve  acknowledges  that  this  is  not  a  very  satisfactory  species. 
I  am  inclined  to  think  it  a  distorted  growth  of  C.  pavonina,  as 
in  that  species  some  of  the  growth-lines  are  incipient  plications 
and  the  superior  striae  are  sometimes  recognizable  with  a  glass. 
It  was  probably  beach-worn. 

C.  BOURJOTIANA,  Crosse.     PL  60,  fig.  95. 

Shell  smooth,  white,  with  light  chestnut  undulated  longitudinal 
lines ;  aperture  light  yellowish,  white-margined,  nearly  eden- 
tulous within.  Length,  14  mill. 

.  Habitat  unknown. 

C.  PULCHERRIMA,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  96. 

Shell  spirally  ridged  and  longitudinally  plicated,  the  spire 
acuminated,  with  a  sharp  apex ;  yellowish  brown,  the  ridges 
tinged  with  chestnut;  lip  thickened,  strongly  dentate  within. 

Length,  23  mill. 

Gulf  of  Dulce,  Central  America. 

Described  from  a  single  specimen,  dredged  by  Mr.  Cuming 
from  sandy  mud  at  a  depth  of  ten  fathoms.     It  is  remarkably 
distinct  from  all  its  congeners.

186  STROMBINA. 

C.  MACULOSA,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  97. 

Whorls  tubercularly  coronated ;  white  reticulated  with  chest- 
nut. Length,  1  inch. 

West  Coast  of  Central  America  to  Cape  St.  Lucas. 

C.  ELEGANS,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  98. 

Shell  regularly  and  somewhat  closely  longitudinally  ribbed, 
with  revolving  striae  towards  the  base ;  yellowish  white,  longi- 
tudinally marked  with  chestnut  zigzag  lines ;  aperture  white, 
outer  lip  strongly  dentate  within.  Length,  1'5  inches. 

Guacomayo,  W.  Co.  Central  America,  in  sandy  mud. 

C.  TURRITA,  Sowb.     PL  60,  figs.  99,  100. 

Shell  smooth  ;  yellowish  white,  closely  reticulated  with  chest- 
nut, articulated  at  the  suture ;  aperture  whitish,  without  teeth. 
Length,  35  mill. 

West  Coast  of  Central  America,  in  coarse  gravel  and  sand 

at  10  fathoms  (Cuming). 

Sowerby  has  figured  a  pale  variety  of  this  species  (fig.  100), 
in  which  the  color-markings  are  sharply  angular. 

C.  ANGULARIS,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  1. 

Whorls  with  strong  longitudinal  ribs,  the  last  one  with  an 
angulated  periphery,  below  which  the  ribs  become  obsolete  and 
are  replaced  by  revolving  striae ;  aperture  strongly  dentate 
within  ;  yellowish  white,  stained  with  chestnut.  Length,  32  mill. 

Panama. 

Described  from  a  single  specimen  obtained  by  Mr.  Cuming. 
I  suspect  that  several  of  the  species  of  this  group  will  prove  to 
be  mere  variations  of  a  single  type  when  a  sufficient  series  has 
been  obtained  to  study  them  properly. 

C.  SUBULATA,  Sowb.     PL  60,  fig.  2. 

Whorls  with  a  narrow  shoulder  defined  by  a  carina,  covered 
by  revolving  striae;  lip  externally  thickened,  strongly  and 
numerously  dentate  within  ;  epidermis  yellowish,  stained  with 
light  chestnut.  Length,  1-5  inches.  Habitat  unknown. 

Described  many  years  ago  from  a  single  specimen  and  yet 
remaining  unique.  The  carina  indicates  abnormal  growth.  The 
specific  name  is  preoccupied  by  Duclos  for  a  species  which  he 
figured  without  description  and  which  has  not  been  subsequently 
identified. 


STROMBINA. 

C.  RECURVA,  Sowerby.     PL  60,  figs.  3,  4  ;  PI.  61 ,  fig.  T. 
Shell  yellowish  white,  more  or  less  stained  with  chestnut. 

Length,  1-1-1-5  inches. 

W.  Coast  of  Central  America. 

With  this  I  unite  C.  lanceolata,  Sowb.  (fig.  4),  and  G.  fusi- 
formis,  Hinds  (fig.  t),the  distinctive  characters  of  those  species 
being  included  in  the  range  of  variation  exhibited  by  a  large 
series  of  C.  recurva. 

C.  TERQUEMI,  Jousseaume.     PL  61,  fig.  8. 

Shell  yellowish  brown  ;  whorls  eight,  the  first  four  rather 
smooth,  the  others  longitudinally  costate  and  spirally  striate, 
the  last  gibbous  above,  the  costae  disappearing  below  the 
shoulder  on  which  they  form  tubercles ;  lip  thickened  externally, 
bituberculate  within.  Length,  19  mill.  Habitat  unknown. 

Described  from  a  single  specimen  in  Dr.  Jousseaume's  col- 
lection. 

C.  PUMTLTO,  Reeve.     PL  60,  fig.  6. 

Shell  fusiform,  thick,  rather  gibbous,  spire  turreted,  whorls 
rudely  angled  and  noduled,  nodules  on  the  last  whorl  swollen, 
irregular ;  whitish,  faintly  tinged  with  orange-brown ;  aperture 
narrow,  lip  thickly  varicose,  obtusely  denticulated  within. 

Length,  '75  inch.  Cumana,  Venezuela  (Dyson). 

Very  closely  allied  to  C.  recurva,  but  of  shorter  growth,  more 
humped,  and  more  irregularly  noduled ;  and  from  its  habitat 
there  is  also  reason  to  believe  it  distinct.  The  figure  represents 
a  reversed  specimen  and  it  is  (except  that  of  G.  nivea)  the  only 
reversed  figure  that  I  have  noticed.  The  above  description  is 
copied  from  Reeve  j  the  locality  is  very  doubtful.  It  appears  to 
be  closely  related  to  G.  Terquemi,  Jouss.,  described  above.

188  ALCIRA,   jESOPUS,   ENGINA. 

Genus  ALCIRA,  H.  Adams. 

The  single  species  of  this  group  is  readily  distinguished  from 
other  Columbellae  by  its  somewhat  expanded,  simple  lip  and 
oblique  columellar  fold. 

A.  ELEGANS,  H.  Adams.     PI.  61,  fig.  9. 

Shell  elongate,  reddish-brown ;  whorls  six,  slightly  convex, 
transversely  striated  (the  striae  stronger  and  more  numerous  on 
the  basal  portion  of  the  last  whorl),  variegated  with  darker 
markings,  and  with  some  lighter  spots  next  the  suture;  aperture 
equaling  the  spire  in  length.  Length,  12-15  mill. 

Cape  of  Good  Hope. 

Genus  JESOPUS,  Gould. 

Shell  fusiform,  gibbous,  widely  truncate  in  front ;  aperture 
lunate,  with  a  posterior  callus,  columella  simple,  vitreous  ;  suture 
abnormally  arcuate  near  the  aperture.  Animal  white,  entarginate 
anteriorly,  obtuse  posteriorly,  bearing  a  flabelliform  corneous 
operculum ;  head  small,  with  short  obtuse  tentacles ;  eyes  median, 
external ;  siphon  broad  and  very  short.  The  curious  curve  of 
the  suture  near  the  posterior  angle  of  the  aperture,  as  if  it  had 
been  drawn  backward,  thereby  pulling  back  this  angle  and 
curving  the  last  whorl  downward,  is  very  peculiar.  The  form 
and  aspect  of  the  shell,  and  the  structure  of  the  animal,  indicate 
its  place  to  be  intermediate  between  Mitra  and  Columbella. 

JS&.  JAPONICUS,  Gould. 

Shell  small,  with  seven  somewhat  tumid  whorls,  plicate  poste- 
riorly, covered  by  revolving  striae ;  last  whorl  widely  truncate, 
oval,  three-fifths  the  length  of  the  shell ;  aperture  lunate,  the  lip 
reflected,  columella  with  a  wide,  vitreous,  suberect  lamina; 
chestnut-colored,  lighter  around  the  sutures.  L.  7,  diam.  2  mill. 
Kagosima  Say,  Japan;  5  fms.,  sandy  bottom  (Stirapson).

iostoma,  Reeve  (Man.  II,  188,  t.  58,  f.  248)  is  also  possibly  a 
synonym. 

E.  ALVEOLATA,  Kiener.     PL  61,  figs.  16-20. 

Shell  longitudinally  ribbed,  ribs  cut  into  tubercles  by  revolving 
grooves ;  yellowish  white,  with  alternate  interrupted  revolving 
bands  of  chocolate  and  orange,  each  usually  tipping  the  tubercles 
only,  and  of  the  width  of  two  tubercles ;  aperture  yellowish  to 
dark  chocolate.  Length,  15-18  mill. 

Philippine,  Viti,  Caroline  Is.,  Australia  (Brazier). 

The  usual  coloration  of  the  species,  as  described  above,  is 
represented  by  E.  lauta,  Reeve  (fig.  18),  the  figures  of  E.  alveolata 
g^ven  by  Kiener  (figs.  16,  11)  being  without  the  orange  bands. 
E.  alveolata  of  Reeve,  Carpenter,  etc.,  is  a  very  different  species. 
Other  synonyms  are  E.  histrio,  Reeve  (fig.  19)  and  E.  trifasciata, 
Reeve  (fig.  20) — the  latter  a  scarcely  distinguishable  variety,  in 
which  the  decussation  is  not  so  strongly  marked  as  in  the 
typical  form. 

E.  ZEPA,  Duclos.     PL  61,  fig.  21. 

Shell  yellowish  white,  the  tuberculations  of  the  longitudinal 
ribs  colored  by  alternate  revolving  bands  of  dark  chocolate  and 

orange.     Length,  6  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 


190  ENGINA. 

Figured  and  namad  but  not  described.  It  is  very  much  smaller 
than  the  last  species,  but  otherwise  so  greatly  resembles  it  that  I 
suspect  it  to  be  the  same.  This  and  the  following  several  species 
figured  by  Duclos  have  not  been  identified  by  any  subsequent 
conchologist. 

E.  IODOSIA,  Duclos.     PL  61,  fig.  22. 

Yellowish,  with  a  superior  white  band,  having  the  width  of 
three  tubercles  on  the  body-whorl,  and  of  one  tubercle  on  those 

of  the  spire.     Length,  6'5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

Very  like  the  preceding  species  in  sculpture,  but  differs  in 
coloring  and  in  the  aperture. 

E.  MONILIFERA,  Pease.     PL  61,  fig.  26. 

Shell  covered  with  close,  large,  rounded  longitudinal  ribs,  cut 
into  large  tubercles  by  revolving  grooves  ;  yellowish  brc^wn. 

Length,  7  mill. 

Sandwich  Isles  (Pease) ;  Solomon  Is.  (Brazier). 

Very  probably  =  E.  iodosia,  Duclos.  Specimens  from  the 
latter  locality  are  stated  by  Mr.  E.  A.  Smith  to  have  a  median 
purplish  band,  with  three  spiral  rows  of  tubercles,  yellow, 
including  the  first,  fifth  and  seventh  rows. 

E.  TELEA,  Duclos.     PL  61,  fig.  23. 

Gray,  with  several  interrupted  dark  red  revolving  lines. 

Length,  6  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

E.  ANAKISIA,  Duclos.     PL  61,  fig.  24.  * 

Grayish  white,  with  some  dark  red  spots  on  the  tuberculations. 

Length,  4*5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 

The  outer  lip  is  very  peculiarly  thickened  and  sculptured— 
otherwise  the  species  much  resembles  E.  te*ea.  The  spire  has 
lost  the  apex,  by  erosion,  apparently. 

E.  EPIDELIA,  Duclos.     PL  61,  fig.  25. 

Gray,  with  very  dark  chocolate  spots  on  the  rather  distant 
ribs,  forming  three  interrupted  bands.  Length,  12  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 


ENG1NA.  191 

E.  SATORIDA,  Duclos.     PL  61,  fig.  27. 

Ribs  rather  distant,  prominent,  well-rounded  ;  dark  chestnut, 
with  numerous  narrow,  nearly  black  revolving  lines. 

Length,  5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 
E.  NUMICIA,  Duclos.     PL  62,  fig.  28. 

Yellowish  brown,  with  three  chocolate  bands.  Length,  6  mill. 
E.  REEVEI,  Tryon.  PL  62,  fig.  29. 

Yellowish  white,  ribs  marked  with  chocolate,'  forming  inter- 
rupted revolving  bands.  Length,  16  mill. 

Panama  to  Cape  St.  LucaSj  L.  Cal.,  Australia  (Brazier). 

Figured  by  Reeve  as  Eicinula  alveolata,  Kiener — a  very  dif- 
ferent species.  The  Australian  habitat  is  given  upon  the 
authority  of  an  excellent  conchologist. 

E.  BELLA,  Reeve.     PL  62,  figs.  30-32. 

Spire  conically  acuminate,  base  of  aperture  contracted,  elon- 
gated and  recurved ;  roseate,  with  two  broad  chestnut  bands, 
within  which  the  tubercles  are  lighter.     Length,  20  mill. 
Philippines  (Cuming);  Polynesia  (Pease); 

Lord  Hood's  Isl.  (Cuming);  Solomon"1  s  Is.  (Brazier). 

I  include  in  the  synonymy  E.  recurva,  Reeve  (tig.  31),  and 
E.  fragaria,  Wood  (fig.  32).  I  have  already  described  and 
figured  this  species  as  a  Peristernia  (vol.  iii,  82),  but  reproduce 
it  here,  as  the  generic  characters  are  not  very  strongly  marked, 
and  some  good  conchologists  prefer  to  consider  it  an  Engina. 

E.  PULCHRA,  Reeve.     PL  62,  fig.  33. 

Shell  gibbous,  angularly  shouldered,  strongly  ribbed,  crossed 
by  revolving  riblets  ;  violet-brown ,  with  a  light  central  band. 

Length,  15-18  mill.  Panama,  Galapagos  Is. 

It  is  E.  Beeveana,  C.  B.  Ad.  Mr.  Pease  writes :  *  "  I  have 
received  from  Dr.  P.  P.  Carpenter  a  specimen  from  the  Gala- 
pagos Islands,  labeled  'Type  of  (Sistrum)  ochrostomaj  and  also 
one  from  Cape  St.  Lucas,  described  by  him  as  '  oclirostoma,  var. 
rufonotataS  They  differ  widely  from  the  Polynesian  ochro- 
stoma,  Blainv.,  belonging  to  another  genus — Engina.  The  type 
agrees  with  the  description  of  Buccinum  pulchrum,  Reeve,  col- 
lected by  C  timing  at  the  Galapagos  Is."

192  ENGINA. 

E.  ROSEA,  Reeve.     PL  62,  figs.  34,  35. 

Rose-color  zoned  with  dark  chocolate  ;  aperture  rose-color. 

Length,  15-21  mill. 

West  Indies;  Philippines  (Cuming). 

E.  Schrammi,  Crosse  (fig.  35),  was  described  from  a  small 
specimen  9  mill.  long.  The  West  Indian  habitat  is  attested 
by  specimens  before  me  from  three  different  islands  ;  that  of  the 
Philippines  needs  confirmation.  When  the  shell  becomes  water- 
worn,  the  pink  coloring  has  changed  to  white,  the  dark  chocolate 
to  light  chestnut. 

E.  RUTILA,  Reeve.     PL  62,  fig.  36. 

Shell  grayish  pink,  with  dark  chocolate  zones. 

Length,  21  mill.  Habitat  unknown. 

I  suspect  that  this  will  prove  a  synonym  of  the  preceding 
species. 

E.  DEFORMIS,  Reeve.     PL  62,  fig.  3f.   ' 

Alternately  banded  with  reddish  yellow  and  brown. 
Length,  17  mill.  Habitat  unknown. 

I  think  this  will  also  prove  to  be  a  synonym  of  E.  rosea. 

E.  FARINOSA,  Gould.     PI.  62,  fig.  40. 

Distantly  longitudinally  ribbed,  and  spirally  granularly 
striated  ;  yellowish  brown,  with  indistinct  dusky  bands. 

Length,  15  mill.  Sandwich  Islands. 

Hindsia  angicostata,  Pease,  and  Triton  elegans,  Thompson, 
are  synonyms.  The  latter  was  said  to  have  been  discovered 
living  in  Dublin  Bay,  an  obvious  error. 

E.  TURBINELLA,  Kiener.     PL  62,  figs.  38,  39. 

Spire  conical,  with  a  row  of  tubercles  above  the  suture,  the 
latter  forming  an  angle  on  the  last  whorl,  and  below  it  several 
thin  raised  lines  which  are  sometimes  subnodulous ;  surface 
between  these  lines,  and  on  the  spire  covered  with  fine  revolving 
striae ;  dark  chocolate,  the  tubercles,  and  occasionally  the  inferior 
nodules  white  ;  aperture  usually  chocolate,  with  the  teeth  white. 

Length,  15  mill. 

West  Indies. 

Enyina  elegans,  Gray,  an  unfigured  species,  may  almost 
certainly  be  assigned  here. 


ENGINA.  193 

E.  CONTRACTA,  Reeve.     PI.  62,  figs.  41,  42. 

Shell  yellowish  brown,  interior  of  aperture  white  or  rosy,  teeth 
white.  Length,  13-18  mill. 

Panama  and  8t.  Elena,  W.   Columbia,  under  stones  (Cuming). 

I  do  not  find  any  good  distinctive  characters  in  the  figure  of 
E.  acuminata,  Reeve  (fig.  42). 

E.  EXIMIA,  Reeve.     PI.  62,  fig.  43. 

Shell  fusiform,  spire  acuminated,  whorls  rounded,  concentri- 
cally finely  ribbed,  elegantly  cancellated  with  delicate  ridges ; 
yellowish  white,  ridges  brown  in  zones  between  the  ribs. 

Length,  22  mill. 

Manilla,  in  coarse  sand  at  6  fathoms  (Cuming). 

The  pertinence  of  this  species  to  Engina  may  well  be  doubted. 

E.  FUSIFORMIS,  Pease.     PL  62,  fig.  44. 

Shell  white  or  yellowish,  the  nodules  varying  from  chestnut 
to  nearly  black,  with  a  central  white  band,  and  sometimes  others 
at  the  suture  and  towards  the  base  ;  occasionally  the  tubercles 
near  the  base  are  irregularly  variegated  black  and  white  ;  lips  of 
aperture  dark-colored.  Length,  15-18  mill. 

Rowland  IsL,  Viti  Isles. 

It  is  a  narrower  form  than  E.  alveolata,  Kiener,but  is  possibly 
only  a  variety  of  that  species.  I  have  before  me  specimens  with 
the  nodules  chestnut-colored  and  a  central  white  band  which  I 
suppose  to  be  identical  with  the  unfigured  E.  albocincta,  Pease. 

E.  OSELMONTA,  Duclos.     PL  6%  fig.  45. 

Shell  longitudinally  ribbed  ;  orange-brown,  with  darker  spots 
forming  revolving  series.  Length,  7 '5  mill. 

Habitat  unknown.- 
E.  AURANTIA,  Duclos.     PL  62,  fig.  46. 

Surface  of  shell  decussated  into  close,  prominent  tubercles ; 
orange-brown.  Length,  9  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 
E.  GIBBOSA,  Garrett.     PL  62,  fig.  41. 

Shell  yellowish  brown,  gibbous  in  the  middle,  constricted 
below ;  spire  and  upper  part  of  bod}T-whorl  with  distant  ribs, 
whole  surface  covered  by  prominent  revolving  line ;  aperture 
yellowish  within.  Length,  8  mill. 

Viti  Islands. 

I  figure  this  from  one  of  several  specimens  obligingly  furnished 
25 


194  ENGINA. 

by   Mr.   Gaqrett.     Except  in  its   much   smaller   size   it   much 
resembles  E.  contracta,  Reeve. 

E.  FUNICULATA,  Reeve.     PI.  62,  figs.  48,  49. 

Shell  short,  obese,  with  longitudinal  ribs  cut  into  tubercles  by 
revolving  grooves ;  black,  interstices  of  the  ribs  yellowish. 

Length,  12-15  mill. 

Howland  Isl. 

The  principal  distinctive  character  appears  to  be  the  short, 
obese  form.  E.  or  at  a  ^  Pease  (fig.  48),  is  a  synon}7m. 

E.  LTNEATA,  Reeve.     PI.  62,  figs.  50,  51. 

Shell  short, ovate, solid,  longitudinally  nodosely  plicated,  white, 
encircled  b}^  several  lead-black  narrow  lines.  Length,  11  mill. 

Philippines,  N.  Australia,  Viti  Isles,  etc. 

This  is  possibly  the  C.  nana  of  Dillw.,  which  Deshayes  con- 
cedes to  be  the  same  as  C.  zonalis.  Lam.  The  figure  in  Martini 
referred  to  in  the  descriptions  of  these  species  is  not  sufficiently 
well-done  to  banish  doubt  on  the  subject. 

Var.  MACULATA,  Pease  (fig.  51),  is  scarcely  entitled  to  a  varietal 
name. 

E.  ZONATA,  Reeve.     PL  63,  fig.  52. 

White,  with  dark  chocolate  or  black  bands,  sometimes  inter- 
rupted by  the  ribs.  Length,  13  mill. 

Galapagos  Is.  (Cuming);   Viti  and  Paumotus  Is.  (Garrett); 

Solomon's  Is.  (Brazier);  Aracan  (Hanley). 

E.  CONCINNA,  Reeve.     PL  63,  fig.  54. 

Longitudinally  flatly  ribbed,  ribs  very  finely  noduled,  white, 
conspicuously  encircled  with  brown  bands  in  which  the  nodules 
are  white,  edge  of  the  lip  orange-red.  Length,  15  mill. 

Cagayan,  Isl.  of  Mindanao,  Philippines, 

under  stones  at  low  water  (Cuming). 

Much  resembles  the  preceding  species,  and  is,  perhaps,  only 
a  slim  variety  of  it. 

E.  ARMILLATA,  Reeve.     PL  63,  fig.  59. 

With  a  nodulous  keel  on  the  upper  part  of  the  whorls, 
nodosely  ribbed  beneath,  interstices  smooth ;  whitish, the  nodules 
alternately  white  and  black  in  zones,  nodules  of  the  keel 

yellowish. 

Isl.  of  Ticao,  Philippines, 


ENGINA.  195 

The  ground  of  coloring,  according  to  Reeve's  figure,  is  dark, 
with  a  single  white  band.  The  figure  is  evidently  magnified,  but 
no  dimensions  are  indicated.  I  think  it  will  prove  synonymous 
with  E.  concinna,  Reeve. 

E.  PARVA,  Pease.     PL  63,  fig.  55. 

White,  encircled  by  chocolate  or  black  lines  upon  alternate 
rows  of  nodules  and  sometimes  interrupted  by  the  interstices ; 
nodules  frequently  prominently  sharp-pointed.  Length,  6  mill. 

Paumotus  Is. 
E.  NODICOSTATA,  Pease.     PL  63,  figs.  56,  51. 

Two  of  the  revolving  series  of  tubercles  are  more  prominent 
than  the  others  at  the  crossings  of  the  longitudinal  ribs,  so  that 
the  body-whorl  appears  somewhat  biangulated ;  chestnut  to 
chocolate-color  in  the  interstices,  the  nodules  white. 

Length,  6 '5-9  mill. 

Paumotus  Is.  (Pease);  Viti  Is.  (Garrett). 

E.  uariabilis,  Pease  (fig.  57),  is  certainly  a  synonym,  and  I  am 
almost  persuaded  of  the  identity  of  the  form  described  by  Pease 
from  a  single  specimen  as  E.  striata. 

E.  STRIATA,  Pease.     PL  63,  fig.  58. 

Shell  somewhat  angular  in  the  middle,  obsoletely  longitudi- 
nally ribbed,  encircled  by  two  prominent  nodose  ribs,  somewhat 
compressed,  the  whole  surface  deeply  and  regularly  striate 
transversely,  forming  close-set  ribs  ;  columella  straight ;  white, 
left  side  of  the  longitudinal  ribs  striped  interruptedly  with  dark 
brown,  aperture  light  purple.  Length,  8  mill. 

Paumotu*. 
E.  TUBERCULOSA,  Pease.     PL  63,  fig.  60. 

Obsoletely  longitudinally  ribbed,  decussated  into  tubercles  by 
strong  revolving  grooves  ;  black,  with  a  median  white  band. 

Length,  7-9  mill. 

Baker  Island. 

The  figure  is  from  one  of  several  specimens  received  from  Mr. 
Pease. 

E.  PYROSTOMA,  Sowb.  Panama  and  Galapagos  Is. 

E.  MAURA,  Sowb.  Panama  and  Galapagos. 

E.  LIVIDA,  Sowb.  Panama. 

The  above  were  described,  but  not  figured,  fifty  years  ago,  and 
have  escaped  subsequent  monographers ;  they  are  unknown  to  me.

This  is  also  a  lost  species. 
E.  XANTHOLEUCA,  E.  A.  Smith.     PI.  63,  fig.  61. 

I  figure  this  Mauritius  species,  referred  by  its  author  to 
Engiua  ;  my  conviction  is  that  it  is  a  Coralliophila,  and  possibly 
identical  with  C.  coronata.  Barclay  (vol.  ii,  210  t.  66,  figs.  373,

C.  CITHARA,  Reeve.     PI.  63,  fig.  65. 

Shell  somewhat  squarely  ovate,  rather  solid,  whitish,  reticu- 
lated with  chestnut,  blackish  and  white-blotched  next  the  sutures, 
spire  rather  short,  whorls  plicately  ridged  around  the  upper  part, 
spirally  grooved  below  ;  aperture  narrow,  lip  angularly  produced 
and  notched  at  the  upper  part,  finely  denticulated  within. 
Length,  11  mill. 

Habitat  unknown. 
AMPHISSA,  II.  and  A.  Adams. 

Shell  bucciniform,  longitudinally  ribbed;  spire  elevated;  aper-

anterior  sinus  ;  inner  lip  callous,  plicate  below ;  outer  lip  not 
thickened  on  the  margin,  plicate  within.  Operculum  resembling 
that  of  Buccinum  with  the  addition  of  a  straight  spur  of  callus 
extended  towards  the  centre.  Dentition  columbelloid.
