The type of C. rubrognttata from the Hargraves collection is preserved 

 in the Australian Museum. It seems to me to be the typical form of 

 P. tincta. Perhaps a smaller more closely latticed form that occurs also 

 on the Australian coast may be distinguished as var. corrugata.

 Cape Flattery; Lizard Island; Murray island; Mapoon ; Mornington 

 Island (self). 



EdCYCLOTOMA Boettger. 



Eacyclotiniia Boettger, Nachr. Malak. Gesell., xxvii., 1895, p. 55. Type 

 DaplLiiella fnsifonn is. 



From Daphiiella this geuus is distinguished by a spirally striated 

 nucleus. On the adult whorls the spiral sculpture developes into pro- 

 minent keels. Its members are chiefly associated with a coi'al reef fauna. 



Besides the type the founder included in his geuus Plearotonia 

 trlrariiuda Kieuer and Clathurella hicarinata Pease. Addition of the 

 following is now suggested : — I'lei(r<jtiniia lartca Reeve, F. ItiinUii Reeve, 

 P. inquituUa Reeve, P. carinnlata Souverbie, Dayhnetla varicifera Pease, 

 and 1). trivaricosa von Martens.
