3806 SPECIES OF THE SYSTEMA. 
agrees with both description and assigned locality. From the 
erroneous reference to Lister, a British species (f’. Islandicus, 
var. gracilis) has been thus named, but it does not exhibit the 
required peculiarity of margin: a similar cause excludes the 
figure in the ‘Iter Westgothicum,’ which one might rather 
have expected would have been quoted for clathratus, from 
being regarded as illustrative. The reference to Gualtier’s 
plate, correctly printed 46 in the Swedish editions of the 
‘Systema,’ erroneously became 56 in the Viennese: 56, f. F 
represents a Cerithium, which bears no resemblance to the 
description. One feels surprised that Linneus did not refer to 
the work of Bonanni, who has both delineated, in his third 
part, the species really designed (f. 72) and the shell confused 
with it (f. 53) by the citation of Lister. 
Murex Uignarius. 
The Fasciolaria Tarentina of Lamarck (Payr. Coq. Corse, 
pl. 7, f. 16) is marked for this species in the Linnean collection, 
and agrees with the description and assigned locality. All the 
cited figures bear # general resemblance to it; Bonanni’s was 
clearly, and Gualtier’s not improbably, designed for it, but 
Seba’s certainly not, for the whorls are represented in his 
drawing as too much striated spirally to agree with the expres- 
sion ‘‘ leves.” 
Murex trapesiunr. 
The Fasciolaria trapezium of authors (Kiener, Coq. Viv. Fase. 
pl. 6) is marked for this species in the Linnean collection, and 
plate 931 of Seba correctly referred to in the revised copy of 
the ‘Systema.’ The H should be omitted from the synonym 
of Argenville, since that figure was designed for &. filamentosa: 
Rumphius, pl. 29, f. E, also, to say the least, is a doubtful 
representation. ‘The rest of the synonymy may be retained. 
“ Plicata columella uti Voluta” has been written by Linnzus 
in his own copy.
