The figures of Chemnitz appear to be not very characteristic and the numerous specimens 

 I have seen, much better agree with the figures of subsequent authors. Tryon thinks the locality 

 "Philippines" may be doubtful and records the localities Valparaiso and Portorico ; I think he 

 will stand alone with his opinion. Hidalgo (Cat. Mol. Test. Filipinas p. 11) gives a stately list 

 of localities from the Philippines; in the Catalogue of shells in the Leyden Museum, published 

 by Dr. Horst and myself (p. 139) I have enumerated unquestionable specimens from Java, 

 collected by Mr. Overdijk and from Amboina by Mr. Hoedt, other ones from the col- 

 lection of Mrs. Voigt and S. Muller, with the habitat "Indian Ocean" of which the last named 

 are authentic.

The specimens are very bad but still recognizable, I have foliowed v. Martens in applying 

 the name of Gmelin.
