_P. Persica._ The Persian Purpura. Pl. 28, fig. 4.
Transversely sulcated and striated between the ridges; colour
burnt-umber, ridges yellowish, with dark brown spots; upper ridge and
the superior edges of the volutions mucronate; interior sulcated and
striated.
_P. lapillus._ The common Purpura.
Species small, white, sometimes banded with yellow or brown, with a
scaly surface.
5. Monoceros. The Unicorn. Five species.
Derived its name from the long, conical-pointed, somewhat recurved tooth
in the outer lip, by which alone it can well be distinguished from the
Purpura; and with this characteristic difference the description of the
shell of the Purpura will answer for this genus.
Monoceros cingulatum.
M. imbricatum.
M. striatum.
M. glabratum.
M. crassilabrum.
_M. cingulatum._ The belted Monoceras.
