120 list of cypb^id^ found on the yictoeian coast, 



8. Teivia austealis. 



Cyproea Australis, Lam., (non Grray) An sans Vert., Vol. 7, p. 

 404. Eeeve, Conch. Icon,, pi. 24, sp. 138. Sowerby, Thes. 

 Concli., pi. 34, fig. 439, 444. 



Hah. Western Port, Victoria ; very common {Bailey). 



Some of the specimens are very fine ; the largest measure 1 9 

 millimetres long ; the smallest 10 mill. ; it is very common on the 

 coast of New South "Wales, washed up on the outer beaches 

 after gales. I have obtained living specimens from 10-15 

 fathoms in Port Jackson, and under stones during low spring 

 tides. 



9. Trivia oryza. 



Gyprcea oryza, Lam., Anim. sans Vert., Vol. 7., p. 403. Gray, 

 Zoological Journal, Vol. 3, p. 369, 1827. Forbes, in Voyage of 

 H.M.S. Eattlesnake, appendix, Vol. 2, p. 365. Sowerby, Thes. 

 Conch., pi. 35, fig. 474, 475, 476. Cyproea nivea, Peeve, Conch. 

 Icon., pi. 24, sp. 136. Trivia candidula, Angas (non Gaskoin), 

 Proc. Zool. Soc, p. 94, 1871. Brazier, I c, p. 86, 1872. 



Hah. Jan Jue, Victoria, not common [Bailey). 



I have seen a great many specimens some good in condition, 

 others very much sea-worn. I obtained living examples under 

 stones, one specimen I sent to Mr. Angas some years ago and 

 he recorded it as Trivia candidula, Gaskoin. I was led into the 

 same error with it ; since then I have large numbers of the true 

 Trivia oryza found on various parts of the coast of New South 

 Wales, Queensland, Torres Straits, Northern Australia, New 

 Caledonia, Solomon Islands, Caroline Island, Kingsmill Group, 

 and Marshall Group. T. candidula is quite distinct from T. ory%a. 



There has been a great deal of confusion about this species in 

 illustrated Monographs, the shell Oyprcca nivetty figured by Peeve 

 Conchologia Iconica, pi. 24, species 13G, is Cjprcca oryza, Lam.
