Hah. Portland, Victoria {Bailey). 



This is quite a new home for this species, the most southern 

 record we have of it is Botany Bay, New South AVales, along 

 with moneta mentioned in my paper on the Cyprceidce published 

 in the Proceedings of the Zoological Society for 1872. The 

 species appears to extend from Portland in the south all along 

 the eastern, northern, and western coast of Australia. Some of 

 Mr. Bailey's examples are in splendid condition, others again 

 are very poor and beach-worn. It is very strange that we should 

 get so many of the Indo-Pacific species in southern waters. He 

 also found a large quantity of Stromhus Jloridus, Lam., at the same 

 time and place ; it is also common to East, North, and North-east 

 Australia and Solomon Islands, &c.
