An excellent commentary on the above species, and on the difficult genus 
to which they belong, is supplied in the ‘ Revue Critique du genre Oliva,’ by 
M. Ducros de St. Germain, Clermont, 1857. It was written, not from the 
well-known London collections, but from a very large series containing all 
the types figured by Duclos. The following is the author’s arrangement of 
the West Coast forms, excluding citations of well-known species.
