[84 "TERRA NOVA" EXPEDITION. 



Manual [1913, p. 1075] gives its distribution as Cook Strait to Stewart Island. 

 Thomson [1915 (2), p. 405] cites it from Chetwode Islands (Cook Strait), Wellington 

 Harbour, and Foveanx Strait, and later [1916, p. 46, pi. i, fig. 3] he describes and 

 figures an interesting variety dredged off Cape Colville, Auckland, iu 20 fathoms. 



As a fossil it is recorded from the New Zealand Tertiaries at Wanganui, etc. 

 [Button, 1873 (2), p. 36; 1904, p. 477 ; Surer, 1913, p. 1075].

Ha!/. " On the sandy beach at Waikawa, Southland, N.Z. 1912" [=0tago]. 



Obs. Five live specimens in various stages of growth were obtained at the above 

 locality. 



This species has been recorded from Dusky Bay, Otago [Hutton, 1873 (1), p. 86] ; 

 Cook and Foveaux Straits [Davidson, 1887, p. 85] ; off Waipapa Point, 24-26 fathoms, 

 and off Nugget Point, 15-50 fathoms [Suter, 1911, p. 284]; Chatham and Auckland 

 Islands [Hutton, 1880, p. 177; Suter, 1913, p. 1076]; and Chetwode Islands (Cook 

 Strait), Wellington Harbour, and Foveaux Strait [Thomson, 1915 (2), p. 405]. 



As a fossil it is given by Iluttou [1873 (2), p. 36 ; 1904, p. 478], and by Suter 

 [1913, p. 1076], as occurring in the New Zealand Tertiaries at Waugauui.

/A/A. - Stations 90 and 96; 70-100 fathoms. 



O/AS-. At Station 90, an imperfect dead specimen of this species was obtained, 

 consisting of the dorsal and ventral valves firmly articulated together. Both the 

 valves are overgrown, inside and outside, with Polyzoa, Serpulse, and sessile Foramini- 

 fera (Pub/1 n'mn ininiccinn\ The specimen closely agrees in size and build with the 

 example figured bv Davidson from Foveaux Strait, New Zealand [1886, pi. 9, fig. 2]. 

 In the interior of the dorsal valve the cardinalia are very massive, and the cardinal 

 process is very much larger than in the specimens figured by Thomson [1915 (i),
