Hab. "Bottle and Glass Rocks," Port Jackson. Found under 

 a large stone, very rare. (Brazier.) St. Vincent's Gulf, South 

 Australia. (G. F. Angas.) 



This fine species 1 collected some ten years ago, but overlooked 

 it through the dorsal surface being covered with a fine coral-like 

 substance. We have at present in all five species found in New 

 South Wales, these are Haliotis ncevosa, Martyn. Haliotis 

 Hargravesi, Cox. Brazieri, Angas ; cocco-radiata, Reeve ; and 

 parva, Linn.

 p. 97 ; Dentalium, pi. 3, fig. 56. 



Hab. Off Port Jackson Heads, 45 fathoms, hard sand bottom. 

 (Brazier.) 



This fine shell was obtained when H.M.S.S. Challenger 

 dredged one day off Sydney Heads. Other genera were obtained 

 at the same time, and described by Mr, G. F. Angas, in Proc. 

 Zool. Soc, London, 1877. 



3. Broderipia iridescens. 



Scutella iridescens, Broderip, Proc. Zool. Soc, 1834, p. 48.

 pi. 173, fig. 32, 33. Chenu, Manuel de Conch, part 1, p. 364,

Hab. Isl. Nou, New Caledonia. (Mr. R. C. Rossiter.) Grim- 

 wood's Island, Pacific Ocean. (Cuming.) 



The specimen sent by my kinsman from New Caledonia is a 

 most magnificent one ; the silvery iridescent nacre which lines 

 the inside of the shell, contrasted as it is with the less brilliant but 

 lively coloured margin, is almost dazzling. The dorsal surface 

 is mottled with white and rose colour. The genus Broderipia 

 was established in 1847, by Dr. J. E. Gray, after the late Mr. W. 

 J. Broderip.
