Catalogue of VictorioM Mollusca. 383 



Obs.— Our species has been geiieially known as P. tramuserica, 

 Martyn, but he quotes north-west and north-east coast of 

 Amerina as the habitat of his species, and his figure does not 

 represent the shell, which is abundant on our shores, although 

 it shows great variation, and we have a fine series Itefore us. 

 Not one of them could l)e identified l)v Martyn's excellent figure ; 

 he gives no description. We therefore adopt the above name, 

 which has hitherto been cited as a synonym. A copy of 

 Martyn's work is in the Commonwealth Parliamentary Library.
