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



69. Neritina (Vitta) polcherrima, Angas, P. Z. S. 1871, 

 PI. I. f. 25. 



An elegant little shell, more rounded than iV. viridis, Linn., and 

 easily distinguished by its yellow bands and dark purple waved 

 lines. 



Dredged near " Sow and Pigs " reef, Port Jackson. 



Fam. Trochid^;. 



70. Turbo imperialis, Gmelin, Syst. Nat. p. 3594 ; Reeve, 

 Conch. Icon. Turbo, pi. 2. f. 6. 



Although I have frequently met with this fine large species about 

 Moreton Bay and northwards, I never obtained it during my re- 

 searches in New South Wales. Dr. Cox, however, assures me that 

 he found a living specimen amongst the rocks at Watson's Bay, Port 

 Jackson ; and on that gentleman's undoubted authority I now in- 

 clude the species in my list. 



71. Liotia speciosa, Angas, P. Z. S. 1871, PI. I. f. 26. 



A charming little species, quite distinct from L. angasi, Crosse, in 

 sculpture and general character. 



Under stones at Double Bay, Port Jackson {Brazier). 



72. Liotia clathrata, Reeve, P. Z. S. 1843; Conch, Icon. Del- 

 phinula, pi. 5. f. 21 a & b. 



An elegant species, larger than the preceding, strongly clathrate, 

 and somewhat resembling L. pulckerrima of A. Ad. 



Dredged at " Sow and Pigs " bank (Brazier) ; Philippines 

 ( Cuming). 



73. Zizyphinus comptus, A. Ad. P. Z. S. 1854, p. 38; Reeve, 

 Couch. Icon. Zizyphinus, pi. 7. f. 48. 



A small, conical, pale fawn-coloured, nodulosely granulated spe- 

 cies, with a few brown spots at the periphery of the whorl. 



Shark Island, Port Jackson, under stones at low water (Brazier) ; 

 also New Caledonia. 



74. Clanculus nodoliratus, A. Ad. P. Z. S. 1851, p. 163. 

 Shark Bay, Port Jackson, New South Wales. 



75. Minolia pulcherrima, Angas, P. Z. S. 1869, pi. n. f. 10. 



A finely sculptured species, beautifully stained with bright rose- 

 colour, and spotted on the keels with dark purple-lake. 

 Brisbane Water, New South Wales (Brazier). 



76. Minolia bellula, Angas, P. Z. S. 1869, pi. n. f. 1 1 . 



Another very lovely species, shining, and conical, of a pale straw- 

 colour, with close-set serpentine rose-coloured flames on each whorl, 

 abruptly ceasing at the periphery of the last whorl. 



Brisbane Water, New South Wales (Brazier).
