138 AUSTROFUSLS. 



S. SULCATA, Lam. PI. 56, fig. 380. 



Yellowish brown, with chestnut-colored revolving ridges; 



aperture white. Length, 4*5 inches. 



8. Australia. 

 S. CINNAMOMEA, Reeve. PL 56, fig. 382. 



Light reddish brown, with darker revolving ridges. 



Length, 2-25 inches. 



Habitat unknown. 



The want of longitudinal folds appears to distinguish this 

 species from its congeners, except S.- Mandarina, Duclos. To 

 this it is very closely allied and may be identical, although the 

 revolving ridges in cinnamomea appear to be fewer and more 

 distant. 



S. BUXEA, Reeve. PI. 56, tig. 381 ; PI. 61, tig. 386. 



Light reddish brown, obscurely light-banded, white within the 



aperture. Length 2 k 25 inches. 



Cape Verd Isles. 



S. Fisheriana, Petit (fig. 386), was described as a Fasciolaria 

 but the want of distinct columellar folds and the sculpture seem 

 to indicate that it would be more properly placed here; it is 

 almost certainly equivalent to S. bu.rea, described at an earlier 

 date, without locality. 



S. REEVE AN A, Petit. PL 56, fig. 383. 



Described from a worn specimen, deprived of epidermis, sup- 

 posed to come from Newfoundland. The figure appears to be 

 badly drawn. Kobelt suspects that this will prove to be identical 

 with S. sulcata, Lam. Fusus Reeveanus, Sowb., not Petit ( t. 86, 

 f. 600), is possibly also a Siphonalia* 



S. MANDARINA, Duclos. PI. 56, fig. 384; PL 57, fig. 3S5. 

 White or pale rust-color, ridges dark, chocolate. 



Length, 2'5^3'25 inches. 



New Zealand. 



Fusus Zealandicus, Quo}^ (fig. 384), is evidently the same spe- 

 cies; and F. caudatus, Quo} T , is supposed to be the young shell, 

 by Hutton, but I think it quite certain, from comparison of 

 Quoy's figures, that caudatus is the young of F, australis. 

 Hutton connects S. Mandarina with S. dilatata, Quoy.
