seems to be more slender, with more whorls and with closer and finer 
spirals anteriorly. Clathwrella rufinodis von Martens, 1880, is much larger 
and comparatively broader. 
Hab. Queensland :—Murray Island (self). 
PSEUDODAPHNELLA PUNICEA sp. nov. 
(Plate lv., fig. 186.) 
Shell small, solid, ovate-lanceolate, acuminate. Whorls seven, in- 
eluding a two-whorled protoconch. Colour uniform lilac. Sculpture :— 
Stout perpendicular ribs extending from the shoulder to the base are set 
at thirteen to a whorl, about their own breadth apart; the spirals are three 
or four on the upper whorls, and nine on the last ; a bead occurs where a 
spiral intersects a rib, and on the snout, where the radials do not other- 
wise appear, the small close spirals are still beaded. Aperture wide; 
varix massive; four denticules within the outer lip. Length 5°5 mm., 
breadth 2°5 mm. 
This species also extends to New Caledonia, whence it has been 
reported by several writers!% as Olathurella blanfordi Nevill. But that 
African species is shown by Nevill’s original figure 106 to possess a basal 
furrow double the breadth of that of the Australian shell.
