 Hab. — Type locality of C. nej)eane)tsif>, Ocean Beach, Point 

 Nepean. Also dredged in about 8 fathoms between Phillip and 

 French Islands, Western Port. 



Obs. — As was stated when the description of C. nepeanensis 

 was published, prior to the shell being described p.s new, speci- 

 mens were sent to Mr. C. Hedley (on 28th March, 1903, for 

 him to retain), and he said it was new to him, so it was 

 described as new. Recently he states that it is identical with 

 his C. favus ; one of us having examined his type, we are con- 

 vinced that they are the one species. C. ne'peanensis therefore 

 becomes a synonym.
