Lima [Lima) anmtlata greatly resembles the West Indian L. i^L.) scabra (Born), and bas 

 often been confused with it. As Sowerby, however, rightly pointed ont the shells of the former 

 species are much thinner and more finely scidptured. Both the species vary in form and outline, 

 but the thin thread-like ribs of L. [L.) anmilata terminating in low, sharp points distinguish 

 this species from the West Indian L. [L.) scabra. 



Distribution : — The species is widely distributed in the Indian Océan extending from 

 Zanzibar, Reunion, Mauritius to Singapore. It is also found in the Southern Pacific, having been 

 recorded from the Philippines, Australia and Fiji Islands. 



The "Siboga" collection contains one young shell from Pulu Sanguisiapo, Tavv^i-Tawi Island, 

 Sulu Archipelago (St. 93) and an odd valve from Rumah Kuda Bay, Roma Island (St. 279).
