REEVE, Conch. Icon. , vol. Xi, pi. 1, f. 3 (1858). Concerning this remarkable shell, hitherto only found in the Old World, and, in spite of the bulk of its animal, not observed by either Mr. Cuming, Prof. Adams or Mr. Hinds, Mr. Cuming writes: it was not only brought by Mr. Bridges, but also by a gentlemen in Paris, who collected in exactly the same place. Two specimens are in Mr. Cuming's collection, of which one, very much thickened, ap- pears to have formed part of a much larger shell. (Cjpr.... ). U. PLICATULUM Martens. PI. 72, figs. 72, 73, 74. Shell a little concave, ovate-elliptical, pretty equally rounded in front and behind, with weak wave- like folds, radiating from the apex and especially distinct at the margin, where they are separated by distinctly marked, narrow furrows ; concentrically striated above. Apex projecting wart-like, almost in the middle antero-posteriorly (anterior part to posterior as 7 : 6), but rather excentric laterally (left side to the right as 2 : 3). Under side, as in other species of the genus, with a yellowish colored, radially rib-striated middle field, bounded by a double closed line (corresponding to the pallial line of the bivalves), the yellow color elsewhere not very strongly pronounced, more brownish.
