AGLAJA. 49 
Shell internal, situated at the hinder extremity above the branchia, 
white, calcareous, uncoiled, consisting of one or two volutions, thick- 
ened at the free “sutural line,” convex externally and concave within, 
cup-shaped at the commencement, with the outer edge extended by a 
broadish membranous expansion. Total length 33 millim. ; cephalic 
disk 18 long and 16 wide at the broadest part; shell with a greatest 
diameter of 8 millim.; and about 2 in height. (Smith). 
Thursday Island, Torres Straits, 4-5 fathoms, on a sandy bottom. 
(Coppinger). 
Doridium marmoratum Smiru, Zool. Coll. ‘ Alert,’ p. 87, pl. vi, 
f. I-I 4 (1884). Not Doridium marmoratum Cantraine, 1835. 
The only species which appears to have been recorded from the 
Australian coasts is Aglaia lineolata, figured by H. & A. Adams in 
the Genera of Recent Mollusca, vol. iii, pl. 58, fig. 4. This differs, 
however, in the form of the anterior dorsal disk and its small size 
in proportion to the hind part of the animal in addition to which 
the color and markings appear to be quite distinct. Aglaia giglio- 
hi, from Japan, described by Tapparone-Canefri (Voy. Magenta, p. 
110, pl. 1, fig. 18), may be distinguished by the posterior lobation of 
the cephalic disk, different color, and apparent different position of 
the branchial plume. 
Doridium cyaneum, D. nigrum, and D. guttatum, described by 
Dr. Von Martens from the Indian Ocean, have not yet been figured. 
Until all these exotic species have either been compared or much 
more amply described and illustrated, there will remain much un- 
certainty respecting the identification of all or any one of them. 
A. LInEOLATA H. & A. Adams. PI. 1, fig. 7. 
No description of this species has been published, to my knowl- 
edge. As figured by A. Adams, the shields and outside of parapodia 
are transversely lineolate with purplish on a light brown ground; 
insides of parapodia very dark; posterior wings of mantle short, 
without a filament. Shell unknown.
