26 Cane, spirata La7n. Conch. Illustr. f. 25. I have re- 



ceived several specimens of this species from Garden 

 Island. Mr. Gray has informed me that the specimens 

 imder this name in Lamarcks own collection are not 

 CancellaiiDe ; the description given in his Hist. nat. 

 des anim. sans vertebres, accords, however, so perfectly 

 with my shells, that I cannot hesitate to regard them 

 as Lamarck's species.
