88 MR. G. F. ANGAS ON AUSTRALIAN MOLLUSCA. [Jan. 17, 



3. Triton (Cumia) speciosa, Angas, P. Z. S. 1871, PI. I. f. 1. 

 A small beautifully sculptured white species, having upwards of 



twenty varices, and sometimes a pale chestnut band on the last 

 whorl. It appears to belong to that group of the Tritoniidce to 

 which the subgeneric name of Cumia has been given, of which Triton 

 convolutus, Brod., may be regarded as the type. 



The largest specimen I have seen measures 8 lines. Mr. Brazier 

 obtained it living at Green Point, Watson's Bay, Port Jackson. 



4. Ranella pusilla, Brod. P. Z. S. 1832, p. 194. 



This pretty little species, hitherto known from the tropical Pacific 

 Islands, has been found at Broken Bay {Brazier). 



Fam. Dactylid.e. 



5. Amalda cingulata. 



Ancillaria cingulata, Sow. Species Conch, pi. 6. f. 36, 37. 



Several specimens of this beautiful shell have been met with at 

 Brisbane Water and Broken Bay. It varies in length from 3 to 

 A\ inches. 



The animal, Dr. Cox informs me, is 10 inches in diameter. 



6. Olivella ExauisiTA, Angas, P. Z. S. 18/1, PI. I. f. 2. 



A charming little species, with three rows of chestnut spots con- 

 nected by fine undulating lines. 



Coodgee Bay, New South Wales (Brazier). 



Fam. Volutid^. 



7. Voltjta fusiformis, Swains. ; Reeve, Conch. Icon. Voluta, 

 pi. 3. f. 6. 



A broken example of this fine Volute has been found on the beach 

 at Broken Bay — probably its northernmost range. It was hitherto 

 regarded as exclusively Tasmanian. 



8. Voluta punctata, Swainson, Zool. Illus. 1st series, pi. 161; 

 Reeve, Conch. Icon. Voluta, pi. 21. f. 52. 



The very bad figure given in Reeve, taken from an immature and 

 much worn specimen in the British Museum, gives but a faint idea 

 of this rare shell. Its locality was unknown until very recently, 

 when several examples were obtained by Mr. Brazier from the outer 

 beach at Broken Bay. 



9. Voluta zebra, Leach, Zool. Miscell. vol. i. pi. 12. f. 1. 



Port Stephen Heads. 



The more elongated and closely lined variety, described by Leach 

 as V. lineata, has been found by Mr. Brazier on the beach at Lake 

 Macquarie.
