“Limopsis mabilliana DALL, n. sp.
Shell small, subquadrate, with pale brown periostracum sparsely arranged along the radial and concentric sculpture so as to form a fringed reticulum, the hairs not pilose but individualized and distant; beaks small, prominent, with a very minute area and small resiliary groove, five anterior and six posterior hinge-teeth, the series hardly separated, the anterior teeth longer than the posterior; shell greenish white; base arcuate, inner margins strongly crenulate. Length, 6.0; alt. 5.5; diam. 3.0 mm.
U. S. S. "Albatross," station 2780, off the southern coast of Chile, in 369 fathoms, mud, bottom temperature 47° F. U. S. N. Mus. 110,703.
The single specimen was at first suspected to be the young of L. jousseaumi, with which it was dredged, but the crenulate margin showed this to be an error.”
