138 AUSTROFUSUS. 



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



Yellowish brown, with chestnut-colored revolving ridges ; 



aperture white. Length, 4'5 inches. 



S. 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, fig. 381 ; PI. 57, fig. 386. 



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



aperture. Length 2' 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. buxea, described at an earlier 

 date, without locality. 



S. REEVEANA, Petit. PI. 56, tig. 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; PI. 57, tig. 385. 

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



Length, 2-5-3-25 inches. 



New Zealand. 



Fusus Zealandicus, Quoy (fig. 384), is evidently the same spe- 

 cies; and F. caudatus, Quoy, 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 t australis. 

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