86 NOTES ON THE CYPR.E.E. 



Ci/jira'u erosa, Linn. 

 Foot creamy white, mottled with brownish markings ; 

 mantle dark brown, covered with long moss-like filaments about 

 1 of an inch in length, some light brown, others of a bluish tint ; 

 respiratory canal dark brown with a fringe at the edge ; tentacles 

 blackish-brown ; around the trunk a light brown fringe. 



I have in my collection 27 species of Cypraese which I know 

 are found in Moreton Bay, 24 from other parts of Australia, and 

 21 foreign — making a total of 72. There are several in the 

 Queensland Museum which I do not possess. Amongst these 

 are the beautiful C. Scottii from Port Lincoln and the aurora or 

 orange cowrie from the South Seas.
