CRITICAL LIST OF MOLLUSCA FEOM NORTH-WEST 

 COAST OF AUSTRALIA. 



By J. Brazier, C.M.Z.S., &c. 



This collection of Mollusca was obtained by a lady at Cossack 

 Dampier's Land, North-west Coast of Australia, and forwarded by 

 her to Mr. J. F. Bailey of Melbourne, Victoria. Mr. Bailey sent 

 the collection to be exhibited and named at this Society's Meeting- 

 held in June last, and at the time I named all the examples sent, and 

 promised to give a list at some future meeting. I herewith append 

 that list with the synonyms and remai'ks on the geographical 

 range of some of the species. I am sorry to say that Mr. J. F. 

 Bailey died on the 30th of July at the early age of 43 years. It 

 appears he caught a cold while out collecting Palreontological 

 specimens near Melbourne.
