Dr. Verco thought that this should be reduced to a variety of A. 

 brenchlei/i. To me it seems that the geographic separation is sufficiently 

 supported by the stronger and fewer radials and stouter form of *S'. vercoi 

 to maintain it as a distinct species. Probably the South Australian shells 

 identified by Professor Tate as C. brencJilet/i were really a slender form of 

 A. vercoi.
