Habitat. — Panama 1 (Reeve), Japan and Formosa (British Museum — E. A. Smith). 



I have given the reference to Purpura clavigera, on the authority of Mr Smith (loc. cit.), who is 

 obviously right. The Purpura alveolata, Kiener (see Iconog., p. 42, pi. xlix. fig. 23), is plainly a 

 quite different species. 



3. Purpura pica, Blainville. (See Appendix, No. 5.) 



4. Purpura (Stramonita) fasciata, Reeve. 



Purpura fasciata, Reeve, Conch. Icon., 1846, vol. iii. pi. ix. fig. 45.

„ (Stramonita) hcemastoma, var., Tryon, Manual, vol. ii. p. 167, pi. 1. fig. 90. 



March or April, 1876. Ascension Island. Shore. 



Habitat— -Unknown (Reeve). None is marked in the British Museum. Antilles 

 (Kiister). 



The species which Dunker published in 1856 (Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., p. 357), under this name, 

 is not that of Reeve. 



1 This is evidently a mistake. It is not given either in C. B. Adams' or in Carpenter's Panama list.
