22 Gatlif and Gnhriel .- 



Geneva Museum of M.fimbriatus ; but we do not tliiiik Ball's defini- 

 tion of Crasi^edotriton permits of the inclusion of this species. We 

 have a specimen before us of Triton convolutus, Broderip, the type 

 of Ball's genus Craspedotriton, and also his description of the 

 genus. 



In his description of M.fimbriatus, Lamarck says: " Apertura 

 roseo-violacesente," this indicates its inclusion as a Coralliophila. 

 None of our specimens of M. planiliratus from this coast or from 

 Western Australia have any coloration within the mouth.

 and Gatliff. P.R.S. Vic, vol. x. (New Series), p.

 vol. xxxviii., p. 330. 

 Hab. — Coast generally. A common littoral species. 

 Obs. — 'Lamarck's type has never been figured, and its identity was 

 unknown here until I\Ir Hedley examined it in the Geneva Museum. 

 He says : "Three specimens apparently cotypes of Buccinum vino- 

 sum." 



We agree with Mr. Hedley that it has been misplaced in the genus 

 Sistrum. 



In form and sculpture this species varies greatly. It attains to a 

 lengtli of 22 nun., and the adult form usually develoj^es four or five 

 strong denticles within the outer lip.
