The specimen from Stat. 184 is in very poor condition, and so agrees very well with 

 Reeve's oriorinal fio-ure of a worn shell.

This specimen fully agrees with the quoted descriptions and figures, it is nearly covered 

 by a rather thick, velvety epidermis. Reeve, Sowerby and Kuster give it the habitat „ West- 

 Indies", Tryon, West- Africa, West-Indies and Borneo, the latter locality from the label of a 

 London dealer. Fischer (Cat. Moll. Indo-Chine, 1891, p. 46) records it from the Gulf of Siam, 

 after Morlet. The Siboga-specimen confirms its eastern habitat.
