knobs) on the upper whorls, and in the absence of spinous nodules on them; even 
the longitudinal folds are considerably broader and rounded. — E. A. SMiTtH (1903) 
mentions this species from the Maldives and the Philippines. 
Ph. senticosus LINNÉ. 45 miles W. S. W., 54 feet ("/1), 1 shell, 1. 29 mm. — 
Distribution: Philippines (TRYON 1881), East Indian Archipelago (SCHEPMAN 1911); 
Queensland (HEDLEY 1910); Victoria (PRITCHARD & GATLIFF 1897). 
Tritonidea (— Cantharus) fumosa (DILLwYyYN). 45 miles W. S. W., 60—70 feet 
("=?/1), 2 sps, max. h. 45 mm. The specimens are like RErEve's Buccinum proteus 
(Conch. Icon. 3, 1846, fig. 51 a), which TRYON 1881 (Man. of Conch., Vol. III) unites 
with Cantharus (= Tritonidea) fumosus. Distribution: Red Sea—Japan, Australia, 
Polynesia (TRYON 1881). 
FAM. NASSIDAE, 
Nassa livida Gray (= unicolorata KIENnER). 45 miles W. S. W., 66 feet, 3

N' particeps HEDLEY. 45 miles W. S. W., 72 feet ("/1), 1 sp., I. 20 mm. Like 
N. suluralis LAMARCK, but without sutural nodules; encircling red lines interrupted 
on the last half of the body whorl and accentuated in pairs, the median, upper, and 
lower ones being darker. The pairs are transversally connected by brown stripes 
and flames. REEVE's fig. 11 (Conch. Icon. 8) shows the closest agreement with the 
present specimen. HEDLEY (1915) discusses the synonyms and the distribution of 
the species. In 1917 he gives a figure and some ecological notices of it. 
N. elegans KIENER. 42 miles W. S. W., 36—60 feet (""/1), 2 sps, max. h. 14 
mm. The colour is ivory white with some obscure longitudinal stripes, most obvious 
on the back, but without any revolving brown bands, which TRYON (1882), gives 
as characteristics. 4—35 sharp striae encirele the base. 'TRYON gives »So. Australia» 
as its habitat. SCHEPMAN (1911) records it from Makassar and Moluccas, V. MARTENS 
(1880) from Mauritius, MELVILL & STANDEN (1901, 1909) from the Persian Gulf to 
Andaman Isl.
