NOTES. 



1. May be a young S. sipho, Sby. 

 7. Probably the young of C. glans, Hwass. 

 11, 12. Two species, in poor condition, which I am unable to identify. 



13. Probably a new species, white with a chalky zone at the suture, 

 and smooth ; recalling in form A. sinensis, Sby., as figured in the ' The- 

 saurus.' It differs from A. tricolor in colour, and is also more elongate. 



14. Worn, with no trace of the colour markings and a trifle more slender 

 than the typical form. 



15. More compressed at the base and with a narrower mouth ; it is a 

 marked variety, and may prove to be a species. 



24. Very close to C. reticosa, Ad., but may be a new species. 



30. Only one specimen, and immature, but I am unable to separate it 

 from this species. 



31. See Vignal's careful study of this species (Journ. d. Conchyl., vol. 

 h, p. 21) ; the form found appears to belong to his variety attenuata. 



45. Both S. notata, Ad., and S. speciosa. Ad., are mere varieties. 



47. Typical specimens of this shell, which was described without any 

 locality being given, and is, I think, distinct from G. rilppellii, Sby., with 

 which it has been united. 



52. A single small specimen, which appears to belong to a new species; 

 allied to T. sericata, Melvill.
