  " 
  In 
  the 
  Porcupine 
  Expedition 
  of 
  1870, 
  I 
  dredged, 
  off 
  Cape 
  Sagres, 
  

   together 
  with 
  a 
  perfect 
  specimen 
  of 
  Halia, 
  a 
  rather 
  large 
  valve 
  of 
  

   Avicula 
  hirundo, 
  on 
  which 
  were 
  affixed 
  three 
  ovi-capsules 
  of 
  the 
  

   present 
  species. 
  One 
  of 
  the 
  capsules 
  or 
  cases 
  enclosed 
  two 
  young 
  

   specimens 
  of 
  Halia 
  ; 
  each 
  of 
  the 
  otlier 
  two 
  containing 
  only 
  a 
  single 
  

   specimen. 
  The 
  young 
  were 
  marked 
  with 
  a 
  row 
  of 
  the 
  usual 
  interrupted 
  

   spots 
  above 
  the 
  rim 
  of 
  the 
  outer 
  lip. 
  These 
  capsules 
  were 
  solitary 
  

   and 
  closely 
  resembled 
  those 
  of 
  Buccinopsis 
  [_Lio)nestcs^. 
  The 
  apex 
  of 
  

   the 
  shell 
  and 
  the 
  canal 
  are 
  alike 
  in 
  both 
  genera.
