equal black arms, due to a white wedge in the centre of a 
wide posterior black patch. Another common peculiarity was 
that the white concentric band inside, just above the articu- 
lated dark and white border, had two radial extensions to 
the margin in the postero-lateral regions; and these, quite 
marked in the shells with the cross, were frequently distinct 
in those without the cross, and enabled the species to be cer- 
tainly recognized.

The species was taken by Mr. Hedley and others in 
abundance at 300 fathoms, off Sydney, and with this mate- 
rial he was able to identify the Tasmanian shell with Wat- 
son’s species. In my dredging off Beachport and Cape Jaffa 
I took more than 750 examples, mostly immature, and all
