Art. XXXIII. — On the Marine Mollusca of Totaranui Bay, 



Nelson. 



By Professor James Park, F.G.S., Director, Otago Univer- 

 sity School of Mines. 

 [Read before the Otago Institute, 13th May, 1902.] 

 Totaranui is situated on the shores of Tasman Gulf, some 

 forty miles north-west of Nelson, and about midway between 

 that place and Collingwood. A crescent-shaped beach of 

 golden sand nearly a mile long and terminating at the ends 

 against bold headlands of granite crowned with dark ever- 

 green forest, a low terrace and shallow lagoon behind the 

 beach, undulating fern-clad foot-hills beyond the flat, and a 

 background of high forest- covered ranges, form, with a perfect 

 climate, one of the most charming and picturesque spots in 

 a region famed for the beauty of its summer retreats.
