   In 
  these 
  Proceedings 
  (Vol. 
  YIII, 
  pp. 
  369-72) 
  

   shells 
  collected 
  at 
  Christmas 
  Island 
  by 
  Dr. 
  C. 
  

   second 
  visit 
  to 
  that 
  island. 
  A 
  few 
  species 
  obtained 
  by 
  him 
  on 
  his 
  

   first 
  visit 
  are 
  now 
  included 
  in 
  the 
  following 
  catalogue, 
  also 
  those 
  

   enumerated 
  at 
  the 
  above 
  reference. 
  Mr. 
  R. 
  Kirkpatrick 
  when 
  at 
  the 
  

   island 
  last 
  autumn 
  collected 
  nineteen 
  species, 
  of 
  which 
  thirteen 
  were 
  

   not 
  found 
  by 
  Dr. 
  Andrews, 
  four 
  of 
  them 
  being 
  undescribed. 
  These 
  

   were 
  dredged 
  in 
  30 
  to 
  100 
  fathoms, 
  and 
  doubtless 
  many 
  other 
  

   interesting 
  new 
  forms 
  remain 
  to 
  be 
  discovered. 
  Dredging 
  operations 
  

   around 
  the 
  island, 
  however, 
  are 
  very 
  difficult 
  owing 
  to 
  the 
  rocky 
  

   nature 
  of 
  the 
  bottom.
