I have changed Woods’s name because it had been previously 
employed in the genus by C. B. Adams in 1850.

id., Tryon, Man. Conch., IX., p. 364, t. 66, £. 47 
(cop ied). 
The prior employment of gracilis in the genus by MacGillivray 
makes it necessary to substitute another name for the one given 
by Angas.

Rissoa (Alvania) Hulliana, Tate (nom. mut.). Hand 
List, 8. Australia Moll., 1893, p. 7. 
The prior employment of the species name /fasciata for a 
Rissoia by Requien in 1848, Coq. Corse., p. 56, necessitated a 
new name, which is in compliment to. Rev. T. Hull, who was, 
while resident in Tasmania, an enthusiastic conchologist.

Petterd’s name is the older. &. Stranget was independently 
described in 1894, and subsequently Brazier showed the two to 
be identical, and because of the pre-occupation of lineata by 
Risso in 1826 his name must stand.
