Eulima guentheri Tryon, Man. Coneh., viii., 1886, p. 283, PI. 70, 

 fig. 100. 



In the British Museum, I saw one specimen, marked type "Api- 

 calia guentheri, Angas, N.S.W., Pres. Dr. J. G. Jeffreys"; and 

 again, two "? guntheri, Angas, Mauritius, Robillard, Parasite on 

 Holothuria." I have seen several specimens of S. guentheri from 

 Lifu, Loyalty Islands, and I am satisfied that this species is not, as 

 stated, a native of New South Wales. 



Cymatium doliarium Linne. 



Murex doliarium Linne, Syst. Nat., xii., 1767, p. 1223. 



Tritonium doliarium Angas, Proc. Zool. Soc, 1867, p. 189. 



Cymatium doliarium Shirley, Proc. Roy. Soc. Queensland, xxiii., 

 1911, p. 98. 



This species has been reported by Angas from New South Wales, 

 and by Shirley from Torres Straits. All the specimens in the Brit- 

 ish Museum collection are from South Africa. There can be no 

 doubt that these Australian records are fictitious. 



Cymatium boltenianum A. Adams. 



Triton boltenianus A. Adams, Proc. Zool. Soc, 1854(1855), 

 p.311; Id., Angas, op. cit., 1867, p.188. 



This species was originally recorded from Australia, and Angas 

 afterwards reported it from Long Bay, near Sydney. No other 

 collector has met with this unfigured species. In the British 

 Museum, I found a specimen labelled "Triton spengleri, Lamk., 

 Red Sea," which corresponded well to two shells in the same col- 

 lection ticketed "Triton boltenianum, A. Adams, N. S.Wales, 

 Pres. G. F. Angas." I now conclude that the Red Sea is the 

 right locality for this form, which should be excluded from Aus- 

 tralian lists.
