sculpture and, except for a white apex, the colour, is like that of 
G. danieli, Crosse, from which it differs by a crenulate umbilical 
margin. The largest is 74 mm in diameter and has an umbilicus 
14 mm. broad. 
G. concinna is known only from Upolu, Samoa, 
GIBBULA PHASIANELLA, Deshayes. 
Pilsbry, op. cié., p. 235, pl. xxxi., figs. 31, 32, 33. 
Dead shells frequently occurred on the lagoon beach of Funafuti, 
Specimens from the Manchester Museum enable me to state that 
this is the species which Melvill and Standen record* from Lifu 
as “Margarita striatula, Phil.,” a name which I have been unable 
to trace in literature. It has already been recorded from Lifu, 
and also from Ile Art by Fischer.+ I found it alive in abund- 
ance under stones between tide marks, at Noumea, New Caledonia. 
It is represented in this Museum from Lord Howe Island. 
The species hardly seems suitably placed in this genus. 
MoNILEA LIFUANA, ischer. 
Pilsbry, op. .cvt., p. 252, pl. xli., figs. 6, 7; pl. lix., figs. 64, 65. 
Commonly seen in a dead state on the sandy beach of the 
Funafuti lagoon. 
As the name implies this species was first found at the Loyalty 
Islands. Smith} has recorded it from Torres Straits. It is also 
in this Museum trom Aneiteum, New Hebrides.

A shell fairly plentiful in a dead state on the lagoon beach of 
Funafuti is referred here. The fifty examples before me show 
much variation. The colour ranges from pale pink articulated 
with white, through white irregularly splashed or microscopically 
dotted with pink, to entire chalky white. The elevation and 
angulation of the whorls vary, and the size of the largest (length 
43 mm.) is almost double that of the type from Lifu.
