Dimensions.—Length of the shell (with nine joints) 0.22, breadth 0.1; length of the cephalis 0.015, of the last joint, 0.03, of each of the seven other joints, 0.022 to 0.028.

11. Cyrtocapsa chrysalidium, n. sp. (Pl. [76], fig. 9).

Shell rough, nearly spindle-shaped, with seven distinct strictures. Length of the eight joints = 4 : 6 : 11 : 8 : 5 : 5 : 4 : 3. The third and fourth joints are the broadest. The last joint is small, inversely cap-shaped. Cephalis subspherical, with an oblique, dentate horn of the same length. Pores very numerous, subregular, circular.

Dimensions.—Length of the shell (with eight joints) 0.23, breadth 0.1. Length of the single joints, a 0.02, b 0.03, c 0.055, d 0.04, e 0.025, f 0.025, g 0.02, h 0.015.
