Here again we have three species very nearly allied, but probably 

 distinct. 



C. modesta was described from Swan's collection, and has not been 

 since noticed in this ,province. 



C. Unalashkensis and circumcincta were described and tigured by 

 Dall,' the first from Unalashka, whei-e, he says, modesta also was found, 

 and the latter from Popoff Strait, Shumagin Islands. 



C. Unalashkensis has since been found at Victoria and Clayoquot 

 Sound by Dr. Newcombe, and circumcincta has been dredged by Dawson 

 at Forward Bay, Freshwater Bay and Cullen Harbour, and by myself in 

 Departure Bay, near Nanaimo. 



ADMETE, Moller. 



210. Admete Couthouyi, Jay, sp. 



Cancellaria Coxithonyi, Jay, Catalogue, ed. 3, pt. 77 (1839). 



= C. buccinoides, Couthouy, 1838 (jiveoccujned), 

 = viridula, Auct., non O. Fab. 



This Atlantic species was added to our list by Whiteaves, who 

 records six specimens as having been taken at various points in Queen 

 Charlotte Sound by Dr. Dawson. Dr. Newcombe has since taken a 

 specimen near Victoria. Dr. Dall has pointed out (Proc. U. S. Nat. 

 Mus., ix., 1886, p. 298) that this species is not the Tritonium viridulum of 

 O. Fabricius, although it has long gone under that name.
