The Dentalium glabrum, Mont., and Dent. trachea, Mont., which come 
under the genus Cecum of Fleming and Brochus of Brown, have been found 
at Miltown Malbay, on the coast of Clare, by Mr, W. H. Harvey, and at Bun- 
doran, co. Donegal. Capt. Brown figures (pl. 1. Illustrations) three species 
of Brochus, which he calls new, from the coast of Ireland, viz. B. reticulatus 
and BP. annulatus, from the county of Down; B. areuatus from Bantry bay— 
at this last locality 2B. striatus, Brown, occurred to myself. Naturalists seem 
not yet to have agreed about the position of this genus; some make it Anne- 
lidan. Mr. Clark of Bath (as I learn from Mr. Alder) proved it to belong to 
the Gasteropodous Mollusca. Philippi brings it—his genus Odontidiwm— 
under Pteropoda.

Turton mentions a single specimen of “ Anomia terebratula” dredged alive 
in Dublin bay and placed in the museum of the Dublin Society. In August 
last, when visiting this collection in company with Mr. Alder, a Verebratula 
psittacea (sp.) labelled “Dublin bay,” was observed, but whether it was the shell 
alluded to by Turton we could not ascertain, On looking over the Ordnance 
Museum we saw a specimen of 7. aurita, which was dredged at the entrance 
of Belfast bay. Crania personata has been brought up from very deep water 
off Youghal by Mr. R. Ball, and has been obtained by Mr. John Humphreys 
on Pinna ingens, &c., dredged in Cork harbour and off Kinsale. The British 
* Turton’s Dentalium clausum is advisedly omitted as a species.
