“VALVATELLA MINUTISSIMA.
(Pl. II., fig. 10.)
Shell very small, turbinate, very narrowly perforate, pellucid white, delicately spirally striated; whorls 4, very convex; aperture rounded; peristome thin, with the columellar margin a little thickened and expanded.
Length, 2.5 millim.; greatest diam., 2.
Winter Quarters, Feb. 20, 1902.
Only a single specimen, which, although so small, appears to be adult. The surface is a little worn, but the spiral striæ are quite evident in places. It differs from V. refulgens in its more elevated spire, smaller size, and sculpture.”
