THE VOYAGE OF H.M.S. CHALLENGER. 



Habitat. — Chinese Seas (Sowerby and Kiener), Cape York and Torres Strait. 

 (British Museum). 



A rather elongated form presents itself in this specimen. Adams (loc. cit. supra) gives Dipsaccus 

 of Klein the position of a genus. In his Diagnosis he says of it that it is " generally deeply umbili- 

 cated ; " but in the Remarks which he subjoins he says that in this genus " there are four species, 

 distinguished by the deep umbilicus and channelled columella." A glance at any figure of Ancilla 

 cingulata, Sow., will show that it is not umbilicated at all.
