EUCITUARA CALEDONICA Siuith. 



(Plate xlvi., figs. 59, 60.) 



Mangelia caledoiilca Smith, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., (5), x., 1882, p. 217. 



Mangelia zonata var. caledonica Bouge and Dautzenberg, Journ. de Conch., 

 Ixi., 1914, p. 170. 



This species, though united to E. cithara Gould by Melvill and Standen, 

 and to E. zonata Reeve by Bouge and Dautzenberg, seems to be well 

 differentiated b}^ stout build, pure white colour, fine and even revolving 

 threads, and especially by having only six ribs, including the varix, on tlie 

 last whorl. It is unrecorded for Australia. To aid its identification I 

 add a drawing of a specimen 10 mm. long collected at Oubatche, New 

 Caledonia, by myself. 



Hab. Queensland: — Palm Island (self).
