Stations 28, 49. 



One example from 63-75 fathoms off Port Kemlda; another 

 from 22 fathoms off the Manning Riyer. 



While on the subject of MargiiipJIa T may remark that in tlie 

 use of M. oviihrformis, Tate ct May,* were anticipated by M. 

 ovuliformis, D'Orb.f I therefore suggest for the Tasnianian shell 

 the epithet M arginella venfricosa.

Station 49. 



The "Thetis" shells are 6-5 mm. long and 3 mm. broad, whereas 

 the type is 1 1 mm. long and 5 mm. broad. Except for the differ- 

 ence in size, the New South Wales shells answer well to the original 

 figure and description. In seyei^al cases, e.g., Volvula rostrata, 

 A. Ad., specimens from New South Wales are dwarfs compared to 

 those from the southern States. Mr. A. Hamilton tells me that 

 he has remarked analogous cases in New Zealand. 



From 63-75 fathoms off Port Kembla ; previously taken in 24 

 fathoms off Cabbage Tree Island, Port Stephens, and recently by 

 Mr. G. H. Halligan and myself in 100 fathoms sixteen miles 

 east of Wollonojono-.
