Prof. Tate records this species from St. Vincent's Gulf, and 

 generally from Eucla to the south-east coast of South Australia. It 

 is found '•'partially buried vertically in mud or sand in a few 

 fathoms water." 



In some respects the fossil shell resembles the earlier portion of 

 P. virgata. Menke, a West Australian living form, but is distin- 

 guished by the feeble radial ridges, which in the living species are 

 •very distinct.
