250 ADDITIONS-RECENT SPECIES. 



There is also a museum name afloat " Antalis denseliratum Cpr."" 

 for young indianorum with a distinct slit on the convex side. One 

 such in U. S. Nat. Mus. from San Pedro (No. 19,463), is 19 milL 

 long, 2*9 wide at aperture. 



D. AGILE Sars (p. 46). 



Off C. Spartel, Marocco, Sahara and Azores, 337-650 fins., 

 ' Talisman ' Exp. (Jeffreys, P. Z. S., 1884, p. 147). 



D. ENTALIS L. (p. 42). 



Mr. J. T. Marshall records new British localities for the varieties 

 anulata and infundibulum in Journ. of Conch., ix, p. 61. The for- 

 mer " lives in fine sand in deep water, while the var. infundibulum 

 occurs on rough ground ; the latter is really a stunted form, caused 

 by the action of a rough bottom wearing away and successively 

 breaking off the point." 



D. OCCIDENTALS Stimp. (p. 47). 



Verrill (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., iii, p. 394) called attention in 

 1880 to the singular error of Jeffreys, Sars and others in regard to 

 this species, which I have noticed at the foot of p. 47. He gives 

 the range as all along the coast of New England and Nova Scotia,, 

 abundant on muddy bottoms in 50 to 300 fathoms. Jeffreys adds 

 the locality Bay of Biscay, 1,062 fins., ' Travailleur ' Exp. (Jeff- 

 reys, P. Z. S., 1884, p. 147, as " D. striolatum "). 



D. DENTALIS Linne (p. 53). 



Var. crocea Monts., of a beautiful saffron yellow, with the apex 

 rose tinted, and var. rosea Monts., entirely rose colored, are reported 

 from the Gulf of Gabes by Ph. Dautzenberg, Journ. de Conchy 1.,. 

 1883, p. 302. 



D. PANORMUM Chenu (p. 54). 



Second paragraph of references should read D. pseudo-entails O* 

 G.Costa; not " pseudo-antalis" 



Jeffreys (P. Z. S., 1884, p. 147) records it from Cape St. Vincent 

 and off Senegal, in 32* to 1,723 fins. (Talisman Exped.). 



D. DISPARILE Orb. (p. 56). 



D. eburneum Turton, Conchol. Diet. Brit. Is., p. 37 (1819) = D. 

 album Turton, t. c., p. 256, is evidently either D. disparile or varia- 

 bile, but which is uncertain. The doubt causes us to reject the 

 name album, which is prior to those of both species mentioned.
