Hob. Outer North Head of Port Jackson, five fathoms, sand, 

 stones, and broken shells, (Brazier). Lord Hood's Island 

 (Cuming). 



The single specimen obtained on our coast is very much sea- 

 worn, it agrees well with fine living specimens that I have seen 

 from other Pacific Islands, it need never be confounded with Mitra 

 exasperata, Chem., allthough they approach near to one another.

Hah. Outer North Head of Port Jackson, ten fathoms near the 

 rocks, (Brazier). 



The home of this species is Torres Straits, during the Chevert 

 Expedition it was found very common at Dungeness Island. Mr. 

 E. Spalding obtained it also at Port Darwin and Port Essington. 

 The specimen I obtained at the Heads is dead but in splendid 

 condition.
