littorinidj:. 157 



These last agree well with Indian Ocean specimens ; they 

 measure — long. 12|, diam. 8 mil. ; the sculpture oftentimes 

 becomes subobsolete, and the length of the spire varies in 

 specimens from the same locality. 



Sub-Genus EGHINELLA, Swainson. 

 Treat. Malac, 1840, type IE. coronaria, Lamarck. 



62. Littorina (Eehinella) cumingi. 



Trochus cumingi, Philippi, P. Zool. S., 1845, Guimaras {erron. ?). 

 3 Roratonga ; coll. H. Pease, Esq. 



63. Littorina (Eehinella) coronaria [?] 



Monodonta coronaria, Lamarck, Hist., 1822, Sab. f ; Lord Sood's Island, 

 Jide Cuming ; Hervey Island, in Cat. Mus. Godeffroy. 



5 Roratonga ; coll. H. Pease, Esq., and Asiatic Soc, Bengal. 



These all agree best with Philippi's figures 2 and 6 of PI. II, 

 said to be L. bullata, Martyn, from N. Zealand [_=L. papillosa, 

 Lam.] ; I preserve as above, however, the name under which 

 they were sent me by Mr. Pease ; from von Marten's remarks in 

 the Donum Bism., the distinctiveness of the two forms appears 

 to be very doubtful. Philippi gives as localities for L. bullata 

 Zanzibar and Swan Point [Australia].
