Tate and May, Proc. Linn. Soc., New South Wales, vol. xxvi., 
1901, p. 368, who regard it as a variety of D. woodsi, Beddome: 
Although it varies a good deal, as Sowerby points out, 
it does not seem to me to grade into D. woodsi, but to retain 
a valid spiral lira midway between the angle and the suture, 
and some fine spiral striz between the angle and the suture. 
Dredged alive in 17, 20, and 22 fathoms in Investigator 
Strait; and dead at depths from 6 to 22 fathoms in Gulf 
St. Vincent, Spencer Gulf, in and outside Backstairs Pass- 
age. Taken on the beach, and alive in 15 to 20 fathoms, Pet- 
rel Bay, St. Francis Island.
