 Hab. — Western Port ; Port Albert (T. Worcester). 

 Obs. — This species has been distributed amongst collectors 

 under the name of C. petterdi. Brazier, and C. petterdi, T. 

 Woods, but neither of these gentlemen figured or de.scribed such 

 a. species. There has also been some confusion as to the author 

 of the species, many referring to Deshayes, but this fog is 

 apparently cleared up by Professor Tate's remarks in his 1899 

 paper, where he states : — " I borrowed the name after Deshayes, 

 who, on the authority of Angas, had so attached his MS. name 

 to New South Wales specimens in the British Museum, and 

 Angas so listed the species for South Australia on the testimony 

 •of exaujples forwarded by me."
