|
The sharp peripheral carina is lighter than the rest of the upper surface. The general outline from nucleus to basal periphery is somewhat concave. The base of the shell is concavely excavated within the margin, slightly convex toward the center. The smooth nucleus is whitish.
|
|
The aperture is nearly twice as wide as high. The lower lip shows a beautiful concavely arched outline, falling much behind the upper one. The margin is simple, except for sculpture marks. The short columella is arcuated, pearly, simple, ending in a slight point.
|
|
The size of the shell varies between 15 mm and 25 mm. The shell has an erectly conical shape but is rather swollen at the base. It is transparent white, encircled by a necklace of violet spots. The whorls are concavely sloping, spirally ridged.
|
|
The characters of this species are very variable. Usually, the ribs are 14–16 in number, but some specimens have as many as 20. The colour is always red, or brownish. The interspaces between the ribs, round the angulatad part of the body whorl, are concavely excavated.
|
|
The sutures of the early whorls are sharp, those of the latter are concavely round. The columella descends vertically from the body whorl. The siphonal canal, which is straight, has about eight faint striations. The space between the suture and the first spiral keel contains the anal fasciole.
|
|
The size of the shell varies between 40 mm and 83 mm. The shell is channeled, concavely elevated but not reticulated. It is pink-white, with two pale yellow bands and a very few chestnut spots on the body whorl and spire. The aperture is generally rose-tinted.
|
|
The size of an adult shell varies between 30 mm and 66 mm. The spire is channeled and concavely elevated. The color of the shell is yellowish or pink-white, with a network of chestnut or chocolate. It is sometimes indistinctly banded, with lines of spots on the bands.

|
The shell has a rather broadly conical shape. It is reddish fulvous, ocellated with brown-shaded white spots. The whorls are concavely impressed round the upper parts, then rounded, and spirally grain-ridged throughout. The shell is rather constricted below the sutures, then rounded and ocellated with shaded opaque-white spots.
|
|
The length of the shell varies attains 8 mm. The whorls are slightly concavely shouldered above, nodosely plicated beneath, transversely very closely striated. The color of the shell is very dark chocolate or blackish, interior same color.G.W. Tryon (1884) Manual of Conchology, structural and systematic, with illustrations of the species, vol.
|
|
The size of the shell varies between 13 mm and 25 mm. The shell is concavely, rather narrowly shouldered, with a thread-like raised line at the suture. It is closely longitudinally ribbed below the periphery and decussated by raised revolving lines. The color of the shell is dingy yellow to purplish black.
|
|
The length of the shell varies between 7 mm and 20 mm. The whorls are concavely flattened above a fine keel, nodosely plaited beneath, plaits fading away towards the lower part. Transversely the shell is impressly striated. The color of the shell is chocolate brown or pale yellow, reddish at the apex.

|
The size of an adult shell varies between 43 mm and 80 mm. The solid shell is narrow, with a concavely elevated spire and a sharp apex. The body whorl is distantly grooved towards the base. The shell has a flesh color, everywhere veined and clouded with reddish chestnut flexuous lines and spots.
|
|
The praemaxilla is short. There is a fenestra promaxillaris, a small opening in the front of the maxilla side, which is rare among troodontids. There are four premaxillary and about twenty- three maxillary teeth. The maxillary teeth have no serrations on their front edge; the denticles on the concavely curved rear edge are small.
|
|
Above the upper keel the whorl slopes to the suture, below the lower the base is concavely excavated. The colour of the shell is pale yellow. It contains four whorls, plus the protoconch. These whorls are wound obliquely..The topmost whorl is undulated by about sixteen broad radial ribs, which disappear on the next whorl.

Allium triquetrum produces stems tall, which are concavely triangular in cross-section. Each stem produces an umbel inflorescence of 4–19 flowers in January–May in the species' native environment. The tepals are long and white, but with a "strong green line". Each plant has two or three narrow, linear leaves, each up to long.
|
|
The size of an adult shell varies between 30 mm and 71 mm. The ground color of the shell is pale brown, with fine close lines of chestnut- brown, and one or two paler bands. The shoulder ( = the angulation of the shell whorls) is somewhat obtuse. The spire is concavely elevated, with an acute apex.
|
|
The size of the shell varies between 15 mm and 34 mm. The color of the shell is white or yellowish white, with chestnut-chocolate maculations and spots, variously arranged in revolving series. Sometimes the ground-color of the shell is chestnut, with dark chocolate markings and chocolate aperture. The spire is somewhat concavely elevated, with an acute apex.

The size of the shell varies between 25 mm and 86 mm. The color of the shell is white or yellowish white, with chestnut-chocolate maculations and spots, variously arranged in revolving series. Sometimes the ground color of the shell is chestnut, with dark chocolate markings and chocolate aperture. The spire is somewhat concavely elevated, with an acute apex.
|
|
The size of the shell varies between 44 mm and 95 mm. The narrow, somewhat pyriform shell has a concavely elevated spire, carinated at the sutures. The shell is nearly perfectly smooth on the under side only. On two-thirds of the body whorl are unusually distant, impressed grooves to be traced, and even these are almost obsolete.
|
|
The length of the shell attains 9 mm. The whorls are concavely shouldered, somewhat indistinctly keeled. The keel is rendered nodulous by the ends of close obliquely longitudinal ribs, which are short, becoming evanescent about the middle of the body whorl, everywhere with close revolving grooves, which are somewhat nodulous. The color of the shell is yellowish brown.
|
|
The size of the shell varies between 40 mm and 57 mm. The spire is concavely elevated, tuberculate and closely striate. It is nebulously painted with orange-brown, chestnut or chocolate and white, the latter forming usually an interrupted and irregular central band, besides being miscellaneously disposed on other parts of the surface. It is encircled by close narrow brown lines, which are sometimes slightly raised.
|
|
The stout, rough shell has a very broadly conic shape and is narrowly umbilicated. Its length measures 8 mm. The whorls of the protoconch are small, deeply obliquely immersed in the first turn of the teleoconch. The seven whorls of the teleoconch are with quite strong concavely shouldered summits, the rest well rounded (usually showing decided erosion marks which coincide largely with the lines of growth).
|
|
The columella is concavely arched with a slight angle, not to be called a tooth, formed by the end of the umbilical carina at the base. The Interior is extremely nacreous. The operculum is amber-colored, fibrous toward the edges, with twelve or more whorls, a small central elevation on the inner side. The animal has a stout rounded muzzle, short stout tentacles and large black eyes.

However, more to the back the epiparietals became increasingly wider, longer and thicker, curving upwards and to the front. This resulted in the first epipariatal becoming tongue-shaped and overhanging a large part of the frill, slightly pointing outwards. In this area the frill edge continued the curvature of these osteoderms, concavely curling upwards. Close to the edge two paired large openings were present, the parietal fenestrae.
|
|
The smooth shel lshows distant revolving striae, the upper ones nearly obsolete. The spire is concavely depressed, with a raised pink apex and is somewhat tuberculate. Its color is yellowish with a band of irregular white blotches dotted and shaded with chestnut in the center, and smaller ones at the upper part and base.G.W. Tryon (1884) Manual of Conchology, structural and systematic, with illustrations of the species, vol.
|
|
The tubercles are smooth and polished, but the whole intervening surface is sharply fretted with fine oblique puckerings. The color of the shell is white, beautifully flecked above with grayish-purple patches, and closely spotted with purplish-pink on the base. The spire is high and sharp pointed. Its concavely conical slope is slightly broken at the sutures by the projection of the two superior rows of tubercles.

The case of a bentside spinet is approximately triangular. The side on the right is usually bent concavely (hence the name of the instrument), curving away from the player toward the right rear corner. The longest side is adjacent to and parallel with the bass strings, going from the right rear corner to a location on the player's left. The front side of the spinet contains the keyboard.

Characteristics for the Mandau is that the blade is shaped convexly on one side and somewhat concavely on the other side. The blade is mostly made of tempered metals, with exquisite vine-works and inlaid brass. The hilt is made from animal horns, such as deer's horns, although some variations with human bones and fragrant wood also have been found. Both the hilt and scabbard are elaborately carved and plumed.

The Mukhopadhyay module can form any equilateral polyhedron. Each unit has a middle crease that forms an edge, and triangular wings that form adjacent stellated faces. For example, a cuboctahedral assembly has 24 units, since the cuboctahedron has 24 edges. Additionally, bipyramids are possible, by folding the central crease on each module outwards or convexly instead of inwards or concavely as for the icosahedron and other stellated polyhedra.

Evans House is a historic home located at Salem, Virginia. It was built in 1882, and is a 1 1/2-story, "L"-shaped, French Empire style brick dwelling. It features two concavely cut intersecting mansard roofs which are pierced by two paneled interior chimneys with corbeled caps. The front facade is symmetrically divided by a two-story projecting central pavilion supported by a bracketed cornice and topped with a convexly rendered mansard roof.
|
|
The length of the shell attains 9 mm, its diameter 4.2 mm. (Original description) The small, white shell shows a thin grayish periostracum. It contains about five similarly sculptured whorls exclusive of the (lost) protoconch;. The axial sculpture consists of (on the body whorl thirteen) sharp, narrow, vertical ribs, feeble and concavely excavated between the suture and the keeled shoulder of the whorl, there prominently angular beyond the shoulder vertical, becoming obsolete on the base.
|
|
The color of the shell is white and chalky under a pale greenish yellow periostracum. The suture is distinct, not appressed. The whorls are sloping flatly to the periphery which is marked by a rounded keel with (on the body whorl fifteen) obscure elongated swellings or undulations. The anal fasciole which is close to the suture is marked by lines of growth concavely arcuate, crossed by half a dozen spiral incised lines in the path of the sulcus.
|
|
The rest concavely slope above, then are obtusely angled about the middle, rounded, and much contracted beneath, obliquely plicated and spirally lirated. The plicae are rounded, oblique, but little elevated, more or less obsolete at the upper part. The transverse lirae are most beautifully and finely granulated. They are separated by deep-cut striae of different sizes, those in the concavity of the whorls subequal and finer than those beneath, which, again, are not all of uniform tenuity.
|
|
In the first and second spire-whorls a smaller secondary lira arises above the angle and another below. In the third whorl another tertiary and still smaller lira is intercalated above, and another in each interval below. In the body whorl, below these, arising at the suture is a stout cord forming a second angulation, below which the base is markedly concavely onstricted, and has about ten lirae, diminishing in size anteriorly. The aperture is obliquely oval, narrowed behind.
|
|
The rest are concavely excavated above, convex below, coarsely obliquely plicated, and somewhat margined beneath the suture. The plicae terminate abruptly at the concavity, eight on a whorl, very oblique, gradually shorter on ascending the spire, so that the upper rather acute ends fall about the middle of the whorls. The ribs on the body whorl are obsolete at the base, which is obliquely grooved. The aperture is very small, about one third as long as the whole shell.
|
|
A single fine raised not nodulous thread separates each pair of the preceding. The sixth and seventh spirals are smaller than the fifth and close together. They stretch over a series of more distant swellings, and are concavely impressed between them. As these lines form the periphery, this gives a wavy or scalloped outline to the base, which has about eighteen such waves arranged to a certain extent in pairs, the distance and concavity between them alternating greater and less.
|
|
The size of an adult shell varies between 40 mm and 110 mm. The spire is striate, channeled, concavely elevated, sharp-pointed. It has a sharp shoulder angle. The lower part of body whorl is punctured and grooved The color of the shell is orange-brown to chocolate, thickly covered with large and small subtriangular white spots, which by their varied disposition sometimes form a white central band, or dark bands above and below the center, the latter occasionally bearing articulated revolving lines.
|
|
The hindwings are much paler and almost patternless and the transverse band of the forewings is also more concavely curved. Females have liver-chestnut forewings with a white spot below the median in the basal one-third of the wing, a median slightly sinuate darker band and the nervures and marginal line are yellow. There is a postdiscal coalescent band of intranervular white wedge-shaped patches truncated distad. The hindwings are similar in ground colour, but the band of white patches is lunate.

An adult moonlight gourami reaches a length of to up SL. These fish are silvery colored with a slightly greenish hue similar to the soft glow of moonlight. The moonlight gourami's concavely sloped head distinguishes it from other gourami varieties. The males can be identified by the orange to red coloration of the pelvic fins, as well as the long dorsal fins which ends in a point. In females, the pelvic fins are colorless to yellow, and the dorsal fins are shorter and rounder.
|
|
On the whorl next the last there are two between the suture and the shoulder of the whorl. The transverse sculpture consists of rather strong, even, irregularly spaced, concavely arched waves, which cross the fasciole from side to side like a succession of irregularly huddled parentheses; also of a few faint ridges on the base due to incremental irregularities. The base of the shell is subconic, slightly constricted for the siphonalcanal. The anal notch is wide, squarely cut, rounded at the bottom, not touching the suture, a little deeper than wide.

While Doric columns stand directly on the stylobate, Ionic and Corinthian ones possess a base, sometimes additionally placed atop a plinth. In Doric columns, the top is formed by a concavely curved neck, the hypotrachelion, and the capital, in Ionic columns, the capital sits directly on the shaft. In the Doric order, the capital consists of a circular torus bulge, originally very flat, the so- called echinus, and a square slab, the abacus. In the course of their development, the echinus expands more and more, culminating in a linear diagonal, at 45° to the vertical.

Calisto MT is an old style, serif typeface designed for the Monotype Corporation foundry in 1986 by Ron Carpenter, a British typographer. Calisto MT is intended to function as both a typeface for body text and display text. Its stroke contrast is minimal and it preserves an even color, especially in smaller point sizes, which contributes to its great legibility. Its Roman and italic glyphs are animated by serifs and terminals that are cut on an angle to the baseline, and are concavely indented on the terminals, reminiscent of the Belwe and Palatino typefaces.

It was built at the end of Giacomo della Porta's long courtyard. The dome and cochlear steeple are peculiar, and reflect the idiosyncratic architectural motifs that distinguish Borromini from contemporaries. Inside, the nave has an unusual centralized plan circled by alternating concave and convex-ending cornices, leading to a dome decorated with linear arrays of stars and putti. The geometry of the structure is a symmetric six-pointed star; from the center of the floor, the cornice looks like a two equilateral triangles forming a hexagon, but three of the points are clover-like, while the other three are concavely clipped.
|
|
The body whorl is concavely attenuate at the base. The aperture is narrow, elongate-oval, ending in a moderately long open siphonal canal, which expands slightly in front, bends a little to the left, and is barely recurved. The outer lip is thick, sharp-edged, with a deep oblique posterior sinus of three- quarters of a circle, having a thickened reflected margin, and separated from the base of the whorl by a callous pad derived from the inner lip. Then it is straightly convex, with a wide, very shallow excavation at the base of the siphonal canal.
|
|
The length of the shell attains 3 mm, its diameter 1.8 mm (Original description) The small, yellowish brown shell is broadly fusiform, It contains five whorls, including a prominent two-whorled protoconch, which is finely spirally lirate. The adult whorls are strongly angled about the upper third by a prominent spiral keel, which bears at regular intervals well developed spinose nodules, about 10 on the body whorl. Above to the suture the whorl is concavely hollowed, with a finely nodulous keel. Below the carina are two prominent keels, bearing numerous sharp nodules, connected somewhat irregularly above and below, with axial riblets.

After analysis it was concluded that most, if not all, of the salvage operations most likely occurred not long after the ship was wrecked. It appeared that almost half the amphorae had been removed and the site was strewn with rocks (which were most likely used by free divers) from the Giens peninsula. By the end of excavations in 1982 almost all of the wreck had been uncovered, revealing a ship with a concavely profiled bow and a convex stern; a sharp, prominent keel; two masts; and a heavy cargo load, a shape well attested by iconography but not common in the Roman world.
|
|
The body whorl is closely sulcate throughout, the sulci striate The intervening ridges of the rounded spire are carinate, concavely elevated, The acute apex is striate. The color of the shell is whitish, obscurely doubly banded with clouds of light chestnut, and the spire is maculated with the same.George Washington Tryon, Manual of Conchology vol. VI p. 74-75; 1884 (described as Conus cancellatus) This is a variable species, yet two distinct forms are recognized: (1) sowerbii form, Reeve, 1849 (a thicker, darker, and more densely spotted form with 2 protoconch whorls), and (2) aliguay form, Olivera & Biggs, 2010 (2.5 pearly white smooth protoconch whorls, more slender, higher spire, rounded shoulders, lighter colored).
|
|
The spiral sculpture in front of the fasciole consists of numerous sharp elevated threads with wider interspaces, between each pair of which, except on the siphonal canal, are one or two smaller intercalary threads. On the fasciole there are only a few comparatively faint threads, which do not rise above the transverse sculpture, while on the body the spiral sculpture is predominant though minutely undulated by the other. The transverse sculpture is composed of numerous fine, rounded, somewhat elevated threads with wider interspaces, forming a series of elegant concavely arched ripples on the anal fasciole, beyond which they become fainter, closer, and obscure, being over-ridden by the spirals which they minutely undulate. The fasciole is slightly impressed and extends to the suture, which is distinct but not channeled.
|
|
The subsequent whorls show between the suture and the shoulder five or six fine, sharp, spiral threads with wider interspaces, which arenot beaded by the concavely arcuate growth lines which are prominent on the fasciole. At the shoulder is a weak spiral ridge, followed by five stronger ones, subequal and equidistant with wider interspaces. On a sixth similar ridge the suture is wound, followed by, on the base, about thirty similar but less prominent ridges which gradually diminish in size and strength, and approximate more closely to each other until the siphonal canal is reached. Over all these ridges and interspaces fine sharp threads run spirally, as on the fasciole and are perhaps a little more prominent on the ridges, where they are rendered more or less scabrous by the elevated lines of growth.

It is a leather flap vertically flexible and horizontally enforced by parallel wooden boards applicated on the downstream side and upheld on the upstream side by the headwater and on the downstream side by guiding lateral edges bent upstream. So when a vessel approaches upstream its bow well sticks out above the upper edge of the concavely bent flap weir and by moving on its sloping underside gently presses down the flap, allowing the vessel to skim over it with the swashing downstream torrent. Moving upstream needs more manpower pushing the vessel's bow against the convexly bent flap weir to press it down against the headwater's counterpressure and then steering the barge against the downstream torrent. Mire Commissioner Claus Witte (1796–1861; 1826–1861 in office) promoted Müller's idea, however, the new practical tool was very expensive, so that it took until 1840 that the first samples got installed in a watercourse at , soon spreading to all navigable watercourses in the Teufelsmoor.Johannes Rehder-Plümpe, „Die Struktur der Findorff-Siedlungen“, in: Die Findorff- Siedlungen im Teufelsmoor bei Worpswede: Ein Heimatbuch, Wolfgang Konukiewitz and Dieter Weiser (eds.), 2nd, revis. ed.
