Shell white, resembling B. sericatum Hancock (=cyaneum), on the one hand, and B. ciliatum Fabr., on the other. It has the dense fringed epidermis of ciliatum (when the shell is perfect), with the sculpture of the same, but wanting the tooth on the columella, and having a number of
sharp carinae not found in any specimen of ciliatum which I have seen. The form is much like that of sericatum Hancock, except that the whorls are inflated and shouldered, and the suture canaliculate. Whorls seven. Length, 1.36; width, .8; length of aperture, .66 in. (Dall.)
TYPE in United States National Museum. Type locality, Arctic Ocean near Icy Cape.
RANGE. North end of Nunivak Island, Bering Sea.
