surface "Compare lanceolata, M.C." Again, four specimens, pro- 

 bably types, but not so marked, labelled " lanceolata, Sowb., More- 

 ton Bay," and beneath "Compare corbicula, M.C." On contrast- 

 ing the specimens, I think that both names relate to one species. 



Fissuridea jukesii Reeve. 



Fissurella jukesii Reeve, Conch. Icon., vi., 1849, PI. vii., fig. 45. 

 F. similis Sowerby, Thes. Conch., iii., 1862, p. 194, PL 241, fig. 143. 



In the British Museum are two specimens, perhaps types but not 

 so marked, labelled " similis, Sowb., Fiss., Australia." These I 

 consider identical with F. jukesii Reeve. 



Haliotis funebris Reeve.

From an examination of Reeve's originals in the British Museum, 

 I am unable to distinguish the above three as valid species. Page- 

 precedence of the aggregate was given by our negligent author to 

 II. funebris, and this, the most frequently used name, is accordingly 

 advanced for employment. The preliminary descriptions, to which 

 reference is made in the Iconica, were not published by the Zoo- 

 logical Society until two months after the other account had 

 appeared. 



A tablet of H. funebris in South Kensington is marked "Swan 

 River, Dr. Bacon." Other specimens referred to funebris were col- 

 lected by Prof. J. B. Jukes, at Oomaga, or Stephen's Island, and 

 Bramble Cay in Torres Strait. Schepman has reported H. funebris 

 from Malaysia, but it does not occur in Port Jackson, as he sup- 

 poses.*

The locality ascribed by its author to this hitherto unfigured 

 species is "Sydney, N.S.W.," but no one has since found it in Aus-
