MOLLUSCA FROM THREE HUNDRED FATHOMS HEDLEY. 219 



The slender tapering spire and triple i"ow of unequal beads 

 marks tlie species as clearly different from Australian co-generic 

 forms. 



Two specimens from two hundred and fifty fathoms. 



Cymatium kampyla, Waf><ou, sp. 



J/'assaria kampi/la, AVatson, Journ. Linn. Soc, Zool., xvi., 1883, p. 

 594; JV. camjjyln,^ dtfion, Chall. Re})., Zool., xv., 1886, p. 

 405, pi. xiv., f. 12 ; Lampusia nodocostata, Tate and May, 

 Trans. Roy. Soc. S. Austr., xxiv., 1900, p. 90; Id., Proc.

 Wales, xxvii., 1902, pp. 463, 479, f. 1 and 4. 



A full series taken in each haul by the " Woy Woy," and 

 reference to a " Challenge " co-type, enables us to connect the 

 immature shell described by Tate and May with the adult foi-m 

 discovered by the " Challenger." All codes of nomenclature 

 agree that an author is not permitted to alter a name once pub- 

 lished, the first form of the specific name is therefore here 

 adopted. The change from " kampyla " to " campyla " proposed 

 by Dr. Watson would be particular!}' inconvenient for an index. 



CORALLIOPHILA LISCHKEAXA, Dunkev, Sp. 



Rdijiuia lischkeana, Dunker, Index Moll. Alar. Jap., 1882, p. 43, 

 pi. i.. f. 1,2, pi. xiii., f. 26, 27 : Purpura serfata, Hedley, 

 Austr. Mus. Mem., iv., 1903, p. 382, f. 95, 96; Id., Prit- 

 chai'd and GatlifF, Proc. Roy. Soc. Vict., (n.s. ), wiii., 

 1906, p. 44. 



Several specimens, one alive, of this Japanese species were 

 captui'ed at two hundred and fifty fathoms. This series connects 

 the adult with the young shell described as Furjiura sertatu. 



MUREX LICINUS, sp. nov. 



(Plate xxxvii., fig. 6). 



Shell rather small, short, broad, angled at the shoulder, obliijuely 

 biconical. Canal short, open. Apex acute, bent away from the
