108 ON TENISOX-WOODS TYPES IN THE TASMANIAN MUSEUM, 



figures in the text of this paper, which I hope will be of 

 distinct service to workers in Australasian Couchology. 



It seemed as well to add for general information that the 

 whole of the types of Tate and May's species (with the 

 exception of Cantharus kingicola now in possession of Dr. 

 Vercoe, of Adelaide, S.A.), amounting to 30 species, are also 

 in the Tasmaniau Museum, as well as a considerable number 

 of W. F. Petterd's types, and one of C. E. Beddome's, viz., 

 Leda lefroyi.

Josepha tasmanica. This type was, but is no longer, in the 

 collection. The late C. E Beddome told me that he had 

 the loan of this, and several other types, which he sent 

 to Tryou, to assist him with his Manual. They were 

 returned to him and handed to the late Curator, but have 

 never been replaced in the collection, and cannot now be 

 found. 



Nassa tasmanica. 



Mitra franciscaua. 



Mitra granatina. The same remarks apply to this as to 

 Josepha. From my recollection of the shell I should 

 certainly consider it to have been an exotic species. 



Mitra legrandi. There are three small and jDrobably original 

 specimens on the card, and one larger and perhaps 

 later addition. The former, which we regard as typical, 

 are young shells, and are the variety Scliombiirgki augas.
