The specimen illustrated is not quite mature. Brazier's type meas- 

 ured one inch two lines long. I have lately received very beautiful 

 specimens nearly 30 mill, long, from Dr. J. C. Cox, showing varia- 

 tion in the girdles of blackish spots. The surface in fresh specimens 

 has a velvet-like appearance. Mr. Hedley writes: "I have lately 

 seen an extensive series of Panda larreyi. It seems to constantly 

 differ from atomata in the smaller size, narrower form and more 

 vivid coloration. Its geographic range is different. Going north it 

 immediately succeeds atomata, and inhabits the coastal area between 

 the Hunter and the Clarence Rivers, N. S. W." 



Named for a native chief.
