 Bulimui miltocheilus from the Solomon Islands." P.L.S. , N.S.W., pp. 

 567-570. 

 By a singular confusion the name comptus of Adams is set aside as 

 pre-occupied by Philippi, and adamsi Brazier (new name) written in its place, 

 yet proof is ad\-anced m a foot-note that comptus Adams was of earlier publica- 

 tion than comtiis, Philippi. For this species (of which C. puipurco-cincttun, 

 Hedley, is a synonym) the name Calliostuma comptus, Adams, should be used 

 by Brazier's evidence despite Brazier's verdict. Colour-varieties, styamincus, 

 minor and albohibris are named of Placostyhis miltocluilus. C. H.
