substituted. Crosse lias hinted that incurva may be but a variety 

 of B. rapa. At any rate, typical Bapa rapa Linne (compared by 

 Hanley to Kiener, Pyrula, PL xiv., fig-. 2) also occurs in Queens- 

 land.

In the British Museum are two shells, which Mr. E. A. Smith 

 identified as types of 7?. nodosa. These are said to be from the 

 Philippines, and mounted with them is a larger (22 x 14 mm.) 

 specimen from Port Jackson. Personally, I think that the Philip- 

 pine locality is erroneous, and that all three are Sydney shells. 

 Sowerby's figure in the Thesaurus is so unlike, that it might have 

 been derived from another species. One of the original Cumingian 

 pair, 20 mm. long by 11-5 mm. broad, is here figured. 



On a single, immature, encrusted, and distorted shell, Pritchard 

 and Gatliff based Coralliophila wilsoni* from Port Phillip. This 

 they afterwards united to C. rubrococcinea Melvill & Standen, from 

 the Persian Gulf. The material I have examined is insufficient for 

 a final conclusion, but I am disposed to consider that C. ivilsoni will 

 prove identical with 7?. nodosa, but distinct from C. rubrococcinea,

In the British Museum are three, probably types, but not so 

 marked, labelled, "elaborata H. & A. Adams, Sandwich Is." From
