It is evident that Brmlycinetus brenda, G. S. Brady, 1871, p. 292, does not even belong 

 to the genus Philomedes, as is clearly shown by 2>1- XXVI. fig. 6. According to Brady's own 

 statement 1896, p. 65(\ this form is identical with the male of Cypridina mediterranea 0. COS PA. 

 and tliis statement is not contradicted by the figure in question. 



It is possible that PJi. brenda, R. W. SlIARPE, 1909, p. 428 is s}'nouymous with the species 

 dealt with here. The figure of the male shell given by Sharpe differs, however, so decidedly 

 from the type of shell observed by me that it did not seem right to include this name in the 

 list of synonyms given above.
