THE MOLLUSCA—HEDLEY. 471 
Under the synonym of D. vidua, Reeve, this is quoted by 
Garrett* from Fiji and Wallis Island; by Melvill and Standen} 
from Lifu; and by Weinkauff{ from Upolu, Samoa, I have 
collected it at Port Moresby, British New Guinea. 
GLYPHOSTOMA PURPURASCENS, Dunker. - 
Dunker, Malak. Blatt., xviil., 1871, p. 160. 
Clathurella pulchella, Garrett, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phil., 1873, p. 
219, pl. iii., fig. 32. 
Glyphostoma goubini, Hervier, Journ. de Conch., xliii., 1895(1896), 
p. 149; xliv., 1896 (1897), p. 75, pl. ii, fig. 17. 
Seven specimens from the lagoon at Funafuti. 
Tryon writes that G. purpurascens “is admitted by Mr. 
Garrett to be identical with his C. pulchella, over which it has 
two years’ priority of publication.”§ The figure and description 
of Father Hervier so exactly correspond to the others quoted, 
that I fear no contradiction in reducing his name to synonomy. 
Possibly the unfigured C. rubicunda, Gould, || is the same species. 
Dunker described it from Upolu (Samoa), Garrett from Fiji, 
and Hervier from Lifu (Loyalties). If the prior Clathurella 
rubicunda, Gould, is identical, the range includes the Loo Choo 
Islands. 
GLYPHOSTOMA ALICEM, Melvill & Standen. 
Melvill & Standen, Journ. Conch., viii, 1895, p. 95, pl. ii, fig. 
15 (bad). 
Three specimens from Funafuti agree generally with an authentic 
example from Lifu, The photographic illustration quoted is too 
indistinct to show details. 
GLYPHOSTOMA ALICEH, W/. & S., var. TENERA, var. nov. 
This variety differs in sculpture from the preceding, having on 
the last whorl fifteen delicate coste, where the typical form bears 
eight, thick and prominent ribs. At the anterior termination of 
these ribs, the variety has a more decided angle, followed by a 
more hollow base, than the species in chief. 
Five specimens from the lagoon beach. 
GLYPHOSTOMA MALLETI, Recluz.
