  The 
  following

  complete 
  the 
  account 
  of 
  the 
  Gastropods 
  which 
  

   were 
  not 
  described 
  by 
  Jeffreys, 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  next 
  part 
  I 
  hope 
  to 
  take 
  up 
  

   the 
  work 
  of 
  supplementing 
  the 
  portion 
  already 
  published 
  by 
  him, 
  and 
  

   to 
  deal 
  with 
  a 
  number 
  of 
  minute 
  forms 
  which 
  had 
  not 
  been 
  fully 
  

   investigated 
  ere 
  his 
  death.

  Two 
  specimens, 
  from 
  Station 
  30, 
  were 
  separated 
  by 
  Mr. 
  Marshall 
  

   with 
  a 
  note 
  that 
  they 
  appeared 
  possibly 
  distinct 
  from

  and 
  

   that 
  the 
  Marquis 
  de 
  Monterosato 
  was 
  unable 
  to 
  identify 
  them. 
  I 
  am 
  

   inclined 
  to 
  consider 
  them 
  as 
  only 
  a 
  variety 
  of 
  this 
  form.
