Testa subcylindricd, impressionibus duabus vascularibus ramosis notatd, antice fissuratd, postice obtusd mucronata; aperturd subrotundd; alveola conico excentrico. Shell elongated, subcyhndrical, widening very shghtly above, obtuse below, with a distinct rounded point. Opening circular. Alveolus forming a regular hollow cone, \\ath a round base, and an apex of 18° to 20°, which is considerably nearer to the anterior than to the posterior side of the shell; the position of the septa may be faintly traced on the Hning of the alveolus. The fissure extends to within half an inch of the apex of the cavity, but may be traced to the bottom, on the inside, by a continued depression; another.
