92 AMORIA. 



V. KiNCxi, Cox. PI. 21, fig. 86. 



Yellowish flesh-color, with a very few slightly apparent darker 

 zigzag lines. Length, 3 inches. 



King''s IsL, Bass Straits, Australia. 



Supposed by some conchologists to be a variety of V. undulata, 

 Lam., but appears to differ in its proportions, in the convexity 

 of the spire-whorls, in having onl}' four columellar plaits, etc. 



V. MARMORATA, Swaiusou. PL 28, fig. 89. 



Slightly coronate ; yellowish flesh-color, with irregular striga- 

 tions and angular, flexuous, longitudinal brown lines, faintly 

 indicating two revolving bands. Length, 4-5 inches. 



East Coast of Australia. 



Sect. 6. Amoria, Gray. 



Shell fusiform, smooth and polished; spire conical, with a 

 small, more or less pointed nucleus ; sutures slightly callous ; 

 columella with five oblique, more or less developed plaits. 



Y. UNDULATA, Lam. PI. 28, figs. 88, 81. 



Pale fulvous, with undulated narrow chestnut, longitudinal 



lines. Length, 3-3'5 inches. 



E., W. and S. Australia, l^asmania. 



V. Angasi^ Sowb. (fig. 8T), is only a form of undulata with 

 shorter spire. Mr. Brazier thinks that V. Sclateri, V. Kingi, and 

 V. Australise of Cox, are all mere varieties of this species. 



Y. ScLATERi, Cox. PI. 21, fig. 83. 



Pure white, without markings. Length, 3 inches. 



Tasmania, 

 Perhaps a variety of V. undulata, Lam. 



Y. TuRNERi, Gray. PI. 21, fig. 85 ; PI. 30, fig. 123. 



Whitish or flesh-yellow, with longitudinal, somewhat waved 



narrow chestnut lines ; j-ellowish or light chocolate within the 



aperture. 



N. E. Australia ; W. Australia ( F. Elliott), 



V. Elliott, Sowb. (fig. 123), is not entitled to distinction even 

 as a variety, and, together with several varietal names given by 

 Gray himself, must merge in the synonymy.
