eruickshanki Kilburn, 1972: from Durban, S. Africa, size 20-33mn, 
trawled from 400-600 meters. A most unusual bulbous 
species that is not at all typical of most Cypraea. 
Has been illustrated in Hawaiian Shell News Tegct and 
was published in Durban Museum Novitates Vol. 9=14- 
P209-16. 
eugeniae Cate, 1975: from Albany, S.W. Australia on beach and from 
sand dredgings, size 20-35mm. This is a semifossil 
xanthodon Sow. in my opinion and not a new species at 
all. Published in Veliger Vol. 17-3-P260, Calif. U.S.A. 
fernandoi C. N. Cate, 1969: from Zamboanga, Philippines, size 20-30n, 
From low tide to several meters deep on coral reefs. 
Closely related to rabaulensis Sch. Published in the

fischeri astaryi Sch. & Sch., 1971: from Marquesas Is., size 12-14, 
This new subspecies is also Similar to cumingii Sow. In 
fact fischeri Vay. was thought until recently to be a 
synonym of cumingit Sow. See H.S.N. #87 & 135. Describ- 
ed in Arch. Moll. 101: 297-299, Frankfurt, Germany. 
gloriosa Shikama, 1971: from Taiwan trawlers that may have found it 
off South Africa. Considered a form of gondwanalandensis 
Burgess that is a new name for similis Gray. ee H.5.N, 
si. coal in Science report of Yokosuka City 
Museum, Japan. 
haddnightae Trenberth, 1973: from Albany, S.W. Australia, size 25- 
35mm. A controversial new species close to cribraria 
Linné, but I think distinct. See H.S.N. #174 % 183. 
Described in S. Australian Museum Pub. #17. 
hartsmithi Schilder, 1967: from Sydney Harbor, N.S.W., Australia, 
size 25mm. Another controversial Species. Cate compares 
his eugeniae to it while H.S.N. had articles on it in 
a? e O71 and relate it to a Notocypraea bicolor Gas.
