Phertsixa Gttlsox^, Clark, sp. ( Chemnitzia). 



Logs 6, 25. The name PJierusa being preoccupied, Canon 

 iSTorman's generic name is adopted. 

 CniA MiJs'rMA, Jeffreys, sp. {Odostomia). 



Log 25. A single specimen only represents this common 

 form. Jeffreys was certainly mistaken in describing this 

 species as possessing a tooth, on the columella. T have 

 minutely examined hundreds of specimens, and can, with, con- 

 fidence, assert that there is never any trace of such a tooth. I 

 entirely agree with the ]\Jarquis of Monterosato in trans- 

 ferring this species from the Pyramidellidcs to the Aclidce. 

 Cioirtsoirs iTNictrs, Montagu, sp. {Turlo). 



Logs 12, 28, 39. 

 Edxiha polita, Linne, sp. {Turlo). 



Station YIII. Log 63. 

 E. nniiEiDEDiA, Cantraine. 



Log 25. 

 E. ixcTjEVA, Eenier, sp. {Reliy:),^ E. distorta, auct., non Deshayes. 



Logs 6, 9, 11, 12, 15, 22, 25, 28, 33, 34, 35, 40, 42, 55, 63, 

 73 ; depth, 4 to 165 fathoms. It seems far better to follow 

 MIE. Bucqnoy, Dantzenberg, and Dollfus in adopting Eenier's' 

 very appropriate (and by far the earliest) name incur v a for this 

 species, than to attempt to settle whether Eulima Philippii, 

 as Weinkauff called it, can stand, there being a prior E. 

 Pliilipini, a fossil skell, so named by Hayneval and Ponzi. 

 I mnst confess that I am quite nnable to separate the E. anti- 

 flexa of ITonterosato from this species. 

 [E. GRACILIS, Eorbes and Hanley. 



Log 63. Mr. I^ichols, fide Mr. J. T. Marshall, as E. distorta, 

 var. gracilis.'] E. gracilis appears to me a good species. 

 [E. EPHAiriLXA, Watson. 



Log 63. Mr. Nichols, ^(/e Mr. J. T- MarshaU.] 

 Leiosteaca suBFLATA, Donovan, sp. {Turlo). 



Stations [III.], YIII. ; depth, 30 to 808 fathoms. 

 L. BrLi>^EATA, Alder, sp. [Eulima). 



Station YIII. Logs 6, 11, 12, 22, 28, 31, 33, 34, 42, 63, 

 73 ; depth, 4 or 7 to 80 fathoms. In Try on' s " Manual of Con- 

 chology" there is a suggestion that this species is probably 

 only varietally separable from the last. In the entire group 

 Eulimidce no better separated species could be found.
