Dredged in Gulf St. Vincent, alive, and in Spencer 

 Gulf. Taken on the beach at Streaky Bay. A living indi- 

 vidual, from 7 fathoms, dredged at the entrance to Eastern 

 Cove, Kangaroo Island, supplied the following : — "The foot 

 is nearly as long as the shell, narrow, truncated in front, 

 pointed behind. A close and perfect examination revealed 

 no operculum. The siphon is one-half the length of the foot. 

 Minute tentacles are borne at the ends of stalks, twice as 

 wide and four times as long as themselves. These are white, 

 and a black eye occurs at the end of the stalk outside the base 

 of the tentacle. The foot is variegated with translucent and 

 opaque white, disposed in rings, and the upper part of the 

 foot and body and siphon are ornamented with minute orange 

 dots."

Terehra dyscritos, Verco, Trans. Roy. Soc, South Australia, 

 1906, vol. XXX., p. 149, pi. iv., figs. 3, 4, 6. 



Besides the localities given in the original description, it 

 has been taken in 40 fathoms off Beachport, 5 quite fresh 

 and 5 poor ; in 55 fathoms off Cape Borda, 7 poor ; and in 

 150 fathoms off Beachport, 4 poor. The largest specimen 

 is 10 mm. long, and shows rusty axial flames, three in the 

 body-whorl, and an obscure spiral of some four faint rusty 

 blotches on the base, beginning at the middle of the inner 

 lip. The generic and family location was doubtful when 

 described, but the genus Mangilia among the Pleurotomidae 

 seems the most appropriate place at present.
