The outer lip sho~vs the infolding to a slight extent, hutthere are no indications of the fine crenulations of the lip nor of thcopposite side of the apcrture mentioned in the original description.This character \\.as probably seen only upon thc southern spccimcn,xvhich was also included among the types of the species. Thc exteriorof the cast is entirely smooth.Remarks.-Gabh's type specimen is so i~nperfectly preserved thats~~ecific characters arc difficult to detect.Range in New Jersey-&IT.

Shell pyriform with four or fire oolutions, the outer volutionproduced below into a rather short, curved anterior canal; suturemoderately impressed. The volntions of the spirc subangular aboutmidway hetween the sutures, the angolation marked with obscure nodes,both angulation and nodes being ohsolete on the higher volutions. Bodyvolntion with a rather finely nollose revolving ridge or shoulder belowthe suture, just below which at the line of greatest diameter of the volution,is a row of rounded nodes, about 18 in number, with the interveningspaces about eqnaling in width tire nodes themselves, some ofNEW JERSEY GEOLOGICAL SURVEY
