as r. allporti, Johnston. Tliis reference nnist be an error, for the 

 description given of V. allporti. precludes the possibility of the 

 illustration being a correct tnie. 



The record of V. lirota, from the Muddy Creek Beds, Western 

 Victoria, should be expugned, but more recently the typical Table 

 Cape form of this species has been collected by Dr. T. S. Hall and 

 my.self from the coastal beds below Rivernook, near the mouth of 

 tlif Gellibrand River. W. Victoria.

 Obs. — This species Avas not recognised by Professor Tate when 

 dealing with our Tertiary Volutes; it is, nevertheless, a good species, 

 and should be accepted. I have elsewhere^ pointed out some of the 

 more striking differences between this species and F. ancilloides on 

 the one hand, and V. niarropfera on the other. 



The type of this species is not in the Hol)art Museum, probably it 

 is still in Mr. Johnston's possession.

 Melbourne, and is from the Table Cape Beds. It is also recorded 

 from Curlewis in Victoiia.

Obs. — The type of this species was obtained from the Spring 



Creek Beds, near Ceelong (Jan Jukian) and is now in my own 



private collection. It is, however, a common shell at Table Cape, 



and on that account may have been in Mr. Johnston's collection,.
