I agrée v^àth Rômer that P. [P.) ala papilionis^ mostly recorded in literature as papilio- 

 nacea Lam., is quite distinct from P. {P.) rotundata (Linn.). 



Distribution : — P . [P.) ala papilionis probably bas a wide range in the Indo-Pacific 

 Région, but as was remarked by Lynge, it bas probably been confused with other allied species. 



In the "Siboga" collection there is only a young left valve collected in the Bay of 

 Bima (St. 47).
