Dredged alive up to 15 fathoms and taken alive on the 

 rocks at low water along the South Australian coastline in 

 both gulfs from Yankalilla Bay to Streaky Bay, and Murat 

 Bay in the west. I did not get it at St. Francis Island nor 

 anywhere in Western Australia. It is recorded from Port 

 Phillip, Victoria, but not from Tasmania. It would seem to 

 be very localized and confined to the southern coast of 

 Australia.

W. Swainson, in Proc. Roy. Soc, Tasmania, 1855, p. 48, 

 says, "H. tricostatus, Lam. ; H . pulcherrima, Auct. ; and our 

 H. costata, are (in Reeve's Conch. Icon.) erroneously called 

 H . emmce," and cited as Australian species. But H. costata, 

 Swainson, is given by Pilsbry as a synonym of H . rugosopli- 

 cata, Chem. Again, on page 51, "I see no difference between 

 the species figured at plate x., fig. 29 (Conch. Icon., Reeve), 

 under the singular name of H. emmce, and that described by 

 me in the Bligh Catalogue as Haliotis carinata. . . . Dr. 

 Milligan has fine specimens from the Tasmanian coasts, but 

 we do not think it also inhabits New Holland, as here 

 stated." 



It was recorded for South Australia in Adcock's Handlist 

 of Aquatic Mollusca, 1893, p. 9, No. 372, as H. (Padollus) 

 carinata, Martyn, with emmce, Gray, as a synonym ; but this 

 was compiled from Tate's manuscript list, and he, in the Tas- 

 manian Census in Proc. Linn. Soc, N.S.W., 1901, pp. 407 

 and 447, withdrew H. carinata in favour of H. emmce.
