A single valve, from the beach of Hope Island, adds this species 

 to the Australian list. Confusion has occurred between this and 

 another, usually known as I'ellina angulata, Linne,(as Bertin, op. 

 cit. p.330). The latter has been recently distinguished as T. 

 lamyi Dautz. k, Fischer."^ 



Arcopagia lingua felis Linne.

 1846, p.266, Pl.lxiv., f.236. 



I had already taken this species at Dunk Island, and at 

 Forsyth Island in the Gulf of Carpentaria; but an example from 

 Hope Island leads me to note that it has not been recorded from 

 Queensland, though not uncommon there. 



Arcopagia carnicolor Hanley.

A perfect, though dead shell, from the Hope Island beach seems 

 to be the first representative of the species in Australian waters. 

 The ascription of 7'. strangei to New Zealand is an error, as 

 pointed out by Suter.f
