 Hab. in Oceano Pacifico. (Reefs of Elizabeth Island.) 

 This shell much resembles the small varieties of Cyp. cribraria, 

 but the brown occupies only the centre of the back, and the teeth 

 are more numerous than in that species, and not half the size.— •

Very like Cyp. suffusa, but the four dorsal spots alternate, and the 

 break of the mouth is more sharply recurved, and has a larger tuber- 

 cle before it ; the outer lip also is rather broader. —J. E. G.

Very like small spotless specimens of Cyp. Pediculus, but darker 



coloured, and having the outer lip one half only of the breadtii in that 



species j there are also one or two more ribs on the inner lip. — J. E. G.

Intermediate between Cyp. Australis and Cyp. rosea. It resembles 

 the former in shape, and in the structure of the mouth and lips ; and 

 the latter in size, ribs, and colour, having, however, the addition of 

 three dark spots along the middle of the back. — J. E. G.
