Station 162. April 2, 1874. Lat. 39° 10' 30" S., long. 146° 37' E. Off East Mon- 

 coeur Island, Bass Strait. 38 fathoms. Sand and shells. 



Habitat. — South and West Australia. 



The Challenger specimen is a small shell, and I refer it to Mitra glabra with considerable 

 hesitation. The locality suits, and it is liker to that species than to any I know, but the specimens 

 in the British Museum are in very bad condition, and I failed to find any young shells, which are 

 always peculiarly instructive, though lamentably despised even in the best museums.
