caffrUj albisulcata, and ampla= Candida. Gebiss der Schneckenj 
ii. pp. 106-112, pi. 10. figs. 2-17. — Dentition of Oliva, sp. in- 
determ., and Olivella, sp. indeterm., Macdonald, Ann. & Mag. 
Nut. Hist. iii. p. 115, pi. 13. figs. 12 & 13. 
Harpa. The radula of tiarpa conoidalis (Lara.) is described 
and figured by Prof. Troscbel. It is very small, the median plate 
not broader than long and terminating with a median tooth. 
Lateral plates could not be found; but, as Dr. Macdonald describes 
them (Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. xix. 1857), Troschel thinks that 
they must exist, and may be lost with age. These peculiarities 
lead him to establish a separate family, Harpacea, for the genus 
Harpa. Gebiss der Schnecken, ii. pp. 104, 105, pi. 10. fig. 1. — 
Dentition of Harpa figured by Macdonald, Ann. & Mag. Nat. 
Hist. 4th series, iii. p. 115, pi. 13. fig. 14. 
FASCIOLARIIDiE. 
Fasciolaria. The TurhinellcB with faint oblique folds on the columella, 
forming the so-called genera Lathirus and Peristemia, are proposed to be 
united with the genus Fasciolaria, on account of the similarity in the radula 
and coloration. E. v. Martens, Nacluichtsbl. mal. Gesellsch. i. p. 100. 
Dentition of Fasciolaria, spec, indeterm. Macdonald, Ann. & Mag. Nat. 
Hist. iii. p. 110, pi. 13. fig. 0. 
Fasciolaria trap&dxmi. Specimens intermediate between this species and 
F, audouinii (Jonas) from Zanzibar. Martens, in v. d. Decken’s Reisen in 
Ost-Africa, iii. p. 62. 
TuRBINELLIDiE (VaSIDAs). 
Cynodonta (Swains.) [ TurbinelUi], spec, indeterm. Dentition, IMacdonald, 
Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. iii. p. 116, pi. 13. fig. 8. 
Turbinella scabra, sp. n., Souverbie, Journ. Conch, xvii. p. 410, Art Island, 
New Caledonia. 
Turbinella mariei, sp. n., Crosse, Journ. Conch, xvii. pp. 177 & 279, pi. 8. 
fig. 2, New Caledonia. [The author says that the only known species which 
approaches this new form is T. incarnata (Desh.) ; this belongs to Peristemia 
(see Fasciolariidce) ; but as Crosse neither describes nor figures any plait on 
the columella of his new species, its systematic position appears somewhat 
doubtful.]
