3800 SPECIES OF THE SYSTEMA. 
Surexr Morio, 
This species first appeared in the tenth edition of the 
‘Systema,’ with only the synonyms of Bonanni and Regenfuss, 
whose figures exhibit the /usus Morio (Kiener, Coq. Viv. Fus. 
pl. 23, f. 2) of authors. The details of the ‘Museum Ulrice’ 
(where the 357 of Bonanni was misprinted 358) accord pre- 
cisely with that species, and amend the “ columella rugosa” of 
the diagnosis, by the expressions ‘“ columella—glabra” and 
“labium exterius —interiore latere rugosum.” Hence the 
species, which is still preserved in the Linnean cabinet, and 
alone of its contents answers to the definition, has been 
generally recognised by conchologists. Lister’s plate 928 (the 
variety coronatus) has been referred to in the revised copy of 
the ‘ Systema.’ 
The reference to Seba in the twelfth edition of the ‘ Systema’ 
has been misprinted ; plate 88 contains bivalves only; it should 
have been 80, as in the ‘Museum Ulrice:’ pl. 52, f. 5 repre- 
sents Pyrula Ternatana, and pl. 52, f. 6, has been generally 
quoted for F'usus cochliidium: the colouring of the former 
forbids our confusing it with the Linnean species; the latter 
has already been constituted distinct by Linneus himself. 
Adanson was also misquoted, there being no figure 31 in 
any plate, except 9. The synonymy thus corrected becomes 
accurate enough: some of the smaller figures of Seba, however, 
do not represent, as has been supposed, the fry of this species, 
but of melongena, &e. 
Murex cochliDiunr, 
The correctness of the synonymy, and the details of the 
‘Museum Ulrice,’ enabled naturalists to recognise this scarce 
shell (Chemn. Conch. Cab. vol. x. pl. 164, f. 1569) at an early 
period. An immature individual (pl. 5, f. 5), with the folds 
more conspicuous than ordinary, is marked for it in the Lin- 
nean cabinet, and seems intermediate in aspect between the 
old engravings of it as a Murex and the modern representation
