Obs. — Mr. Henry Suter, of New Zealand, has kindly identi- 

 fied specimens submitted to him as being yoimg shells of the 

 above-named species. The size of the type is: Height, 1.8; 

 breadth, 1.7 inch. The largest examples we have hitherto ob- 

 tained are: Height, 0.60; breadth, 0.56 inch. 



In part 8 of the Catalogue by Pritchard and Gatliff, 

 Chlamys hedleyi, Dautzenburg, was recorded, upon the identi- 

 fication of Mr. C. Hedley. He now informs us he was mistaken, 

 and further states that ('. hedleyi falls in as a synonyiin of 

 C. uudulatus, Sowerby. Ihe shell he wrongly identified we 

 now find to be C. radiatus, Hutton.
