Shell large, posterior part of the cardinal line very slightly ele- vated, and anterior part contracted in front of the beaks; anterior end rounded, posterior end more abrupt; basal line contracted in the central Eart by an undefined cincture arising elow the umbones; beaks anterior, obtuse; umbones low and poorly de- fined ; shell unusually high and thin for species in this genus; surface con- centrically furrowed. This Fpecifs bears some resemblance to a Modiolopsis, but it is doubtless an Orthodesma. Col- lected by Mr. Charles Faber in the upper part of the Hud. Riv.
