MELVILL AND STANDEN: SHELLS FROM LIFU. Eo 
ADDENDA: 
Upon again examining the last collection sent over by Mr. 
Hadfield, we find several species which we regret were not 
noticed in time to be placed in their proper sequence in the 
foregoing list. We now append them, and they will serve as a 
proof, should such be needed, that the resources of these islands 
are very far from being exhausted, and that any future consign- 
ments from this locality would be the means of adding several 
important, and possibly specifically new additions, to the large 
number already catalogued. 
Rhytida Deplanchesi Gassies.—Several. 
R. ouveana Souverbie.—Three specimens. 
Planorbis Rossiteri Crosse.—-Several. 
Conus (Rhizoconus) capitaneus Linné. — One, in very 
fine condition, with epidermis. 
C. (Lithoconus) Gruneri Reeve.—One. 
Oliva (Strephona) carneola Lamarck. — Several, showing 
some variation of banding and colour. 
Latirus (Peristernia) Wagneri Ant. = L. crenulatus 
Reeve.—One or two. 
Ranella (Lampas) Paulucciana ‘Tapp.-Canefri. —- One, a 
good specimen and very distinctive. 
Triton verrucosus Reeve.—One specimen. 
T. (Lotorium) sinensis Reeve.—Several. 
Cypreea aurora Sol. (p. 112).-—Mr. Hadfield, in letter dated 
July 27, 1894, gives the following additional information : 
“Mrs. Hadfield has come upon a rare treasure in the shape 
of a fine orange Cowrie. It is reported among the natives 
that the old woman who found it was struck on the forehead 
‘by a demon, who asked her why she took the shell, a similar 
one never having been found in those waters. She died 
from the effects of the blow, so her good pastor tells me.”
