Prof. v. Martens says that the specimens, collected along 
with the preceding species, better agree with C. papua than 
with any other, and may be also the true C. cyprinoides 
Q. & G. The largest specimen is much larger than the 
figure of Lesson in Guérin’s Magasin de Zoologie, 1832, 
Moll. pl. 11; a single valve, however, of a young spe- 
cimen agrees rather well. It agrees perhaps still better 
with C. cyprinoides of Clessin’s Monograph in the 2d ed. 
of Martini-Chemnitz, p. 124, pl. 20, figs. 3 and 4, in the 
position of the posterior angle. If the suggestion of Prof. 
v. Martens, that cyprinoides and papua are the same spe- 
cies, is right, the latter name has the priority.

the localities mentioned in Note XXVII of the preceding 
volume: 
Pensadoe Kopol and ’Ndatas must be Pengadoe Kapal and 
"Ndatar.

Amarassi is not situated in central Timor, but on the 
South western coast. 
Soesoek and Ainiba are the names of the lakes themselves 
and not of kampongs as I suggested in writing: „near 
Soesoek and Ainiba”.
