It was found by me in Guichen Bay, in a small sandy 
cove between two rocky prominences, which projected into the 
sea. Just beyond the margin of the receding wave it formed 
an abundant dark reddish-brown shifting sediment, with tiny 
fragments of brown seaweed. It was scooped up in hundreds 
with a spoon, mixed with Philippiella crenatulifera, Tate, 
and NVeolepton rostellatum, Tate. It had not previously been 
recorded for South Australia. It was taken also in Lacepede 
Bay in numbers, and in small quantity at MacDonnell Bay.
