Poppe and Goto in Volutes figure a banded shell.  The description follows:
 
 
"A very heavy and solid shell compared to other members of the genus.  The
colour pattern consists of broad dark and light brown spiral bands.
Occasionally, small specimens are white.  On the first whorls, a shoulder
is present.  The sculpture of small axial lines on the periphery is, in
most shells, well developed."
 
They further remark:
 
"Emerson and Old used the name S. gouldiana for the species S. dohrni, as
understood by Weaver and duPont."
 
Hope this helps.
