On the Echini op Australia. 



Supplemental Note to the Paper on the above subject. 

 By the Rev. J. E. Tenison-Woods, F.G.S., &c. 



Since my paper on the Echini of Australia was in type I have 

 found some additions to our fauna in this department, which I 

 note in the following list. 



Temnopleurus toruematicus, Klein. 



This species is found in all the Australian seas, temperate as 

 well as tropical, but the extratropical specimens are small. Prof. 

 Tate has sent me specimens from St. Vincent's Gulf (near 

 Adelaide) obtained at a depth of two fathoms. It also occurs, 

 though rarely, at Port Lincoln, and generally on the south and 

 south-west coast. 



Echinus angulosus, Agassiz. 



This species is also found near and about Port Adelaide and 

 St. Yincent's Gulf. Sometimes, though very rarely, washed up 

 at Port Fairy, Western Victoria, and Hobson's Bay, Melbourne. 

 It is thus described : — Test small, neat, thin, and compact-look- 

 ing, very slightly depressed ; on median I. space one principal 

 vertical row of somewhat small tubercles, the rest small, irregu- 

 larly scattered in neither vertical nor horizontal lines, but more 

 closely packed between main row and poriferous zone. Seconda- 

 ries and milliaries most numerous towards median line. In the 

 A. space the arrangement is similar, median vertical rows com- 

 posed of small secondaries, scarcely larger than those forming 

 the vertical line in the poriferous zone. The zone itself is broad 

 with one to three indistinct vertical rows of small secondaries. 

 G. ring narrow ; two 0. plates reach the A. system, which with 

 the 0. plates is rather large. Secondaries on G. plate near the 

 anal edge small, and anal plates but little tuberculated. There 

 are three to four much larger A. plates the rest are small, dimi-
