548 REPORT— 1803. 



C02. Oliva tnferHnrfa is very close to the rouig of O. xuhantjvla'n, but differs in ih-i 



clie.-itnut stiiin on tlie columella. I have not beeu able to coiupare ii wiia 



the yt)iiii;< of O. Cuminijii. 

 594. Is nn abundant species in the Eastern Islands, occasionally seen in West 



Coast collections. 

 BO.j. Belongs to Aimzola, Gray. The remaining Mazatlan species of Olkella ara 



now- called Olirina, (iray. 

 ens. Ohrvlla aunociiicta= Olira pelliicidu, C. B. Ad., non Kve. 

 599. Olivella {nconspicua, C. B. Ad., is probably the younjr of the rolonrless rar. of 



O. gracilis, which mu~t be excluded from the synonymy of O. ddiiia, no. CiTK). 

 006. The fiorure of Purpura biserialis, jun., lirit. Mus. tablet '22'V2, is stated by Mr. 



A. Ad. to represent the genus Siniiiiiffera,D'Orh., = Chelicrupis, l*"bs. ; just as 



Maci/iUivrayia is the young of Dolium. 



611. Ithizochvihis ntir-\-R. distnns, Cpr. 



612. Tli»' young of Vitularia s(tIehrosa is named /';«?/.« himcllosm, lids., in Brit. Mus., 



and is also the " Ranelln triquetra " of NuttuH's collection. 



618. Is probably C baccata, Gask., in Mus. Cum., though Mr. (Jaskoin regarded it 

 as new. The var. ohsoleta, 6186, is probably ('. (/alaiias, 1{\ e. 



619-622. These shells may perhaps be better studied under Daphnella. 



0."51. Certainly = A'! gemmulma, C. B. Ad. 



6.3;3. Nassa crebristriata ma}' rank as a var. under proxima, C. B. Ad., which is pro- 

 bably itself a var. of lersicolor. 



039. This aberrant group of ft)rms is now transferred to Canthanis in Mus. Cuming. 

 Perhaps they rank better with Sit}hotialia, A. Ad. 



Gu.3. A)iarhis mfotincta (" new," teste Gaskoin) is probnbly = Co?, diminufa, C. B. 

 Ad., in Mus. Cum., but scarcely agrees with the diagnosis, nor was the ac- 

 cordance noticed in the Amherst types. 



659. =P. elegans, Gray, in Griti". Cuv. pi' 2o. f. 2. (1^34.) 



Tho following species, since found, must be added to the catalogue of the 

 Reigen Collection. The specimens are deposited in the British Mnseum; 

 The descriptions of nos. 693-695 appear in the appendix to the Brit. Mus. 

 Cat. ; the remainder are ready for the press.

.5.3. Jai/s Catalogue. — ilr. Hanley states that after the return of Prof. 

 NTittall, his duplicates were bought by the elder Sowerby, who sold part to 



designations of Lamarck, &c., must give way to such names as the above ; and if some 

 _ other ' Attempt ' or ' Little Lucubration ' of a year's earlier date should be disinterred 

 from now-fortunate concealment, the most modern 'Guides' and 'Books of Genera' will have 

 to be re-written. Klein's idea of Argohucdnum appears to have been that of a " Spotted 

 Whelk," probably Ranella argvs. Argobucciniim, H. and A. Ad., may ftand as defini''! in 

 their ' Genera' for the thin ventricose Triton*. 'I'liey have, however, divided thefpecits 

 between I'riene and Lagena,
