Queensland. by W. EF. Roth: Ethnological Studies, p. 116, pl. xiv.. fig. 280. 56 In fig. 4 of the same plate we have a sketch, three feet in length, in red, of what is no doubt intended for the head, body, and tail of a crocodile, with transverse bars across its length, as in fig. 2. The legs, however, are missing. Fig. 5 of pl. xii., measuring two feet in length, is drawn in red ochre, and depicts the lower portion of a limb of a crocodile, which, if the number of claws is correctly drawn, is a hind leg. Fig. 4 of pl. xi. is of doubtful nature. It is painted in yellow ochre, while at its lower extremity, a peculiar subsi- diary design in red surrounds it. The red portion may have belonged to a previous, and, now, partly obliterated, drawing. I am unable to offer any suggestion as to its meaning. A Larrekiya youth traced its resemblance to a frog, and, no doubt, the general squat shape and broad, round end does suggest this view. In fig. 6 of pl. xii. we may find an interest in spite of the design having become considerably obliterated through long exposure, from the fact that the radial markings of the little that remains remind one slightly of a feature in some of the paintings figured by Grey.* The only other explana- tion I can offer is the small ornament constructed of fur and beeswax, worn under the forehead-band of the men. On the walls of this cave, also, are numerous reproduc- tions of negative imprints of hands, made in the manner that has been previously recorded. The palm of the hand is held flat against the rock-surface, the mouth filled with a thin paste of pipeclay, or ochre, suspended in water, and these contents squirted around the hand. The result is that a patch of rock is stained red or white, as the case may be, except where it has been protected by the hand. In many instances the imprint is subsequently tinted with a different pigment, or in some cases a ground colour is given to the rock before the imprint is made. Figs. 7, 8, and 9 of pl. xii. demonstrate these productions, which show that imprints are made both from the right and left hand. Fig. 10—a long yellow, sinuous curve—may possibly have been suggested by the form of a serpent; but it is doubt- ful. As to the remaining figures on this plate, Nos. 11 and 12, I have no suggestion to offer. I am indebted to Mr. W. Holtze for photographs of an- other group of rock-drawings, secured from the Katherine River. These are all drawn in pipeclay. * Journals of Two Expeditions of Discovery in North-West and Western Australia, London, 1841, vol. i. 57 A creditable design of a lizard is the best preserved of the group (pl. xiu.). It is well proportioned, and from the long, slender head and neck of the figure, one might safely refer it to the monitor (Varanus sp.), which is there plentiful and forms an object of their hunts. B rays we have adopted the form of apparatus shown 301 in the figure. The plate at A scatters in all direc- tions the radiation which it receives from the ra- dium at R. Nearly all the returned particles strike the hemispherical wall BB’ of the ionisa- tion chamber, the larger hemisphere CC’ being Sem. connected to the electro- Fie. I. meter. The usual shield- ing devices are used, but not shown in the figure. This arrangement gathers in the efiects of all the secondary rays, so that a measurable effect is obtained, even when only a small quantity of radium is used. When the cup or dome BB is made of very thin Al foil, stretched on a frame of a few fine wires, the effects ob- tained by placing plates of different metals at A approxi- mate to those given by McClelland—that is to say, the curve which shows the relation between secondary ionisation and atomic weight, is of the same general form as McClel- land’s, though somewhat flatter. But when the dome is thick- ened by the addition of layers of tinfoil, there is a conside- rable alteration. The addition of tinfoil of a tenth of a millimetre in thickness is sufficient to make the curve almost linear, and the ionisation is then nearly proportional to the atomic weight of the radiator. The figures in the following table show the results of an experiment of this kind. They give the ionisation cur- rents, on an arbitrary scale, for different radiators and dif- ferent thicknesses of the dome. The smaller figures are only approximate : — Pht Ac @ ign Vie, ‘Sy o AL r€, 1. Thin Al leat 1300 1010 798 679 484 391 166 9.

Af "153 76 4229, ili 18 7 > Assuming that the returned radiation is really due to a scattering of the primary beam, there are two ways of in- terpreting these results. The 8 radiation of radium is hete- rogeneous, and consists of rays of various velocities. Accord- ing to H. W. Schmidt there are a certain number of groups, each homogeneous in itself (Ann. der Phys., Nov., 1906). It 302 is conceivable that the efiect of varying the atomic weight of the radiator might depend on the velocity of the B particle, and that the smaller atomic weights might return a relatively small amount of fast primary rays. Assuming the velocity of the secondary rays to be of the order of that of the pri- mary, 1t would then follow that the constitution of a hete- rogeneous primary beam would be altered by scattering, the alteration depending on the atomic weight of the scattering substance or radiator, and being of the nature indicated by experiment. Crowther (Phil. Mag., Oct., 1906) has described an experiment which appears to show a considerable effect of this kind. He found that the secondary ionisation due to the B rays of UrX was much more nearly proportional to atomic weight than in the case of radium, as studied by McClelland, and he has suggested that the difference “may be due to the presence in the radium radiation of compara- tively slowly-moving 8 rays.” On the other hand, H. W. Schmidt has recently found (Ann. der Phys. Bd., 23, 1907) that the behaviour of substances under radiation from the B rays of UrX is not very different to that found by McClel- land in the case of radium. As it was important to settle this point, if we were to find the true interpretation of our own experiments, we put together the apparatus of the form used by Crowther, and repeated his experiments with UrxX, using also radium and actinium. The apparatus is not very well suited, as Schmidt points out, for obtaining accurately the proportion between secondary and primary; but it gives a ready answer to the question as to whether or no the speed of the B particle has any effect. Subtracting the effects of the carbon plate from all' the others, and setting lead equal to 200, we obtained the follow- ing results: — Pha i SRieqg cAS: . np Zitle wh CUs) goallica deren PE hv i COO Mal LALO 102 atl 37 ree. £4... 200 160 147 6 ALLO 102 S75. woG Ra. dhe... 200).

Ra 1—Thin mica + tinfoil, the latter "00366 cm. thick. Ra 2—Thin mica + tinfoil, the latter ‘0293 cm. thick. Ra 3—Thin mica + tinfoil, the latter ‘0586 cm. thick. Ra 4—Thin mica + lead, the latter equivalent to ‘11 cm. of tinfoil. SO0000Ce 303 The figures for Ra 1, Ra 2, Ra 3, are fcr B rays only, the effects of y rays having been eliminated. The figures for Ra 4 have not been corrected for y rays, and must, indeed, refer almost entirely to rays of the latter class. The velocity of the B rays of Ac is less than in the case of UrX. Im the case of radium it varies; some of the rays are as little penetrating as those of Ac, others more than the rays of UrX. The figures seem to show that there is a certain small dependence on the velocity of the B rays, but it is insufficient to account for the variations in quality which have been described above. We must therefore fall back upon a second explanation, viz., that the scattered rays possess velocities which are less, on the average, than those of the primary; and that the dif- ference is greater in the case of the atoms of small atomic weight. This is in general accordance with other experi- ments and with expectation. It has been shown by Gehrcke (Ann. der Phys., viil., p. 81, 1902) that scattered cathode rays possess a variety of velocities, none greater than that of the primary, some, however, being equal to it. And it is not unreasonable to suppose that 8 rays lose more energy in being scattered by atoms of less weight or of looser building than by those which are heavier or more rigid. If, there- fore, a homogeneous beam of B rays fell upon an aluminium plate, there would be found in the scattered secondary rays a larger proportion of particles of much reduced speed than if the plate had been lead. When we measure the ionisation produced in an ionisa- tion chamber, and insert successive thicknesses of absorbing material between the radiating substance and the chamber, placing them in contact’ with the wall of the latter, the effect is the same as if we gradually removed the chamber to greater distances ; if we may assume that the law of absorption in air and in the given absorbing material is not greatly affected by the alterations in quality which we are considering. We may, therefore, take the figures in any vertical column of the first table given above as showing the effects of the secondary radiation at various distances from the radiator. If we plot an lonisation-distance curve the whole area between the curve and the axes is the true measure of the ionisation due to the returned rays. The usual plan is to accept as a measure the one figure at the head of the column. We find that in each case the curve may be nearly ex- —~\.x pressed as the sum of two exponentials as Ae “1 Be “2 Whether this has a physical meaning or not does not concern our immediate argument.

In the last column are the corresponding figures when the amount of radiation is measured by A + B, v.e., the lonisation found when one layer of tinfoil is placed over the chamber. It is clear that there is a considerable difference. When tinfoil is placed over the radium itself so as to cut out a large proportion of the slower f rays, the secondary radiation is also hardened correspondingly. The figures here given are not sufficiently accurate to be taken as absolute. The measurements were made as care- fully as possible, but more numerous and more varied experi- ments are needed before it will be possible to map out the phenomena with exactness. But the results show clearly that— (1) The secondary radiation from different substances, due to the B and y rays of radium, varies in quality, those of lower atomic weight returning a greater proportion of less penetrating rays. (2) When sti less penetrating portion of a primary beam of 8 rays from radium is sorted out, the secondary rays also become more penetrating. (3) In view of these considerations the ionisation cur- rent due to secondary radiation, measured in a chamber of the ordinary form, does not give a simple or accurate deter- mination of the nature of that radiation. 205 NOTES ON SOUTH AUSTRALIAN MARINE MOLLUSCA, WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW SPECIES.—PART VII. By Jos. C Verco, M.D., Lond., F.R.C.S., Eng., Etc. PLATE XXIX. [Read September 3, 1907.] Cyclostrema homalon, n. sp. Pl. xxix., figs. 5, 4. Shell small, thin, flatly depressed, of 44 whorls. Apical whorls convex smooth. Spire whorls flat excavately sloping towards the upper suture, rounded towards the lower, with a spiral near the upper suture, which is well adpressed so as to simulate another spiral, and two near the lower suture. Body whorl large, with about seven spirals, the lowest form- ing a basal carina, starting where the inner lip joims the body whorl at its base, and ending at the outer third of the basal lip. Umbilicus large and perspective, with about ten spiral lire. There is a smcoth area between the outermost and the basal carina. The aperture is quadrate, with round- ed angles, and lies in an oblique vertical plane. The labrum is excavated at a little distance from the suture, then pro- jects curvedly forwards, and then continuously retrocedes. The inner lip is applied to the base, so that the aperture is not quite circular or complete. Very fine crowded axial microscopic markings, which do not follow the sinuosities of the outer lip. Dim.—Largest diameter, 2°77 mm.; smallest, 2 mm.; height, 1 mm. Diagnosis.—C. harriette, Petterd, is closely allied, but has a less open umbilicus, and its labrum is not sinuous on the dorsum, but has a continuous convex curve ; and the intra- umbilical spirals are much finer and more crowded. Variations.—One variety attains a size of 4.1 mm. in diameter, and is more solid. Its aperture is rounder; the umbilicus wider and more perspective, is radially wrinkled, and may not have so many spiral lire. There may be no spiral lira near the suture on the whorls, nor any elsewhere, or there may be several on the sides of the body-whorl. Some show the basal carina distinctly, others feebly, and others not at all; but the sinuosity of the lip is present and the miscroscopic radial markings. Locality.—Type, 62 fathoms north-west of Cape Borda; var., 130 fathoms, Cape Jaffa. 306 Cyclostrema pachyston, n. sp. Pl. xxix., fig. 10. Shell orbicular, depressed, of five whorls, spire slightly elevated. First two and a half whorls convex, smooth, fol- lowed by a spire-whorl, with five equidistant spiral lire. Body-whorl upper surface flatly sloping, nearly smooth, with fine curved axial wrinkles antecurrent just below the suture, then obliquely retrocedent. Side convex, with four well- marked spiral lire to the periphery. Base rounded with about eight spiral cords, very flat and low, separated only by incisions. Umbilicus minute, nearly filled up by flat callus expansions of the inner lip, producing rude curved radial wrinkles. Aperture round; outer lip oblique, thin and simple, somewhat crenulated outside by the lire; basal part thicker and smooth; inner lip thin where applied to the base of the body-whorl, and expanding beyond the concave colu- mella as a thick shiny smooth callus to the centre of the per- foration. Dim.—Greatest diameter, 215 mm.; smallest, 2 mm.; height, 1°5 mm. Locality.—62 fathoms, north-west of Cape Borda, 10 dead. The largest example is 3°2 mm. in diameter. In the larger shells the perforation becomes more open, and its sides are radially wrinkled. Cyclostrema denselaminatum, n. sp. Pl. xxix., fig. 9. Shell opaque-white, minute, turbinate, of four whorls, nearly detached, rapidly increasing. Protoconch one and three-quarter whorls, flatly convex, smooth. Spire-whorls convex. Sutures deep. Aperture circular, complete, de- tached from the base of the body-whorl; border simple. Um- bilicus moderate, perspective. Sculpture begins abruptly from the protoconch; valid axial lamine, about as high as wide, and one-half or one-third as wide as the interspaces, crowded, nearly 50 in the body-whorl, completely encircling the whorls and so visible in the umbilicus. Fine hair-like spiral threads, about 40 in the body-whorl, less crowded on the base and near the suture than on the periphery. Dim.—Greatest diameter, 1°55 mm.; smallest, 1°'4 mm.; height, 1°] mm. Diagnosis.—Scala nepeanensis, Gatliff, is more elate and has fewer axial lamine. (Cyclostrema angeli, Ten. Woods, is more elate and has a smaller perforation. C. johnstoni, Bed- dome, is similar in shape and has crowded axials, but has no spirals. Locality.—Type from 62 fathoms, north-west of Cape Borda; Backstairs Passage, 22 fathoms, 6 dead. 307 Gibbula reedi, n. sp. Pl. xxix., fig. 5. Shell solid, depressed conoid. Whorls, 4 smooth, flatly convex, slightly hollowed just below the suture. Summit blunt. Suture impressed. Periphery round, barely angu- late. Base convex. Umbilicus moderate. Aperture oblique, roundly elliptical; outer lip simple, bevelled inside; a short thin glaze on the base of the whorl; columella arcuate, evert- ed posteriorly, with a tiny notch where it joins the round basal lip at the end of the bordering lira of the umbilicus; throat smooth and iridescent. Sculpture: the dorsum looks as though it were spirally lrate, but is really quite smooth except for very fine miscroscopic curved retrocurrent accre- mental scratchings. On the base are about a dozen fine spiral incisions, with radial scratch-marks more valid and distant than on the dorsum; these are still stouter and wrinkling within and near the perforation. An inconspicuous lira bor- ders the umbilicus, which has a shallow groove just above it. Colour, chestnut-brown, with dark-brown spiral hair-lines of varying width; dotted with tiny white spots, which, below the suture, are aggregated into small pyramidal blotches with their apex upward, six in the body-whorl. A white band, scalloped on both edges of these aggregated dots, encircles the periphery. An articulated white-and-brown spiral orna- ments the lira bordering the umbilicus, a second les just out- side this, and another with more distant double white spots beyond; the rest of the base, which is of a lighter tint than the dorsum, has scattered tiny white dots. The umbilicus is white. Over all is a transparent glaze, with a bronze reflex. Dim.—Greatest diameter, 6°2 mm.; smallest, 5 mm.; height, 3 mm. The species may reach 7°2 mm. Locality.—The beach, Holdfast Bay (Tate); Leven’s Beach, Yorke Peninsula (Zietz). It seems to be quite lit- toral. I have not dredged it. There may be a faint gutter where the labrum joins the body-whorl. The colour may be dark-brown. The peri- pheral white band may fade out toward the aperture. The white blotches beneath the suture and the articulated bands around the perforation seem the most constant ornament. It was formerly called in South Australia Gibbula Fes- serula, Ten. Woods, and was so catalogued as No. 348 in Ad- cock’s Handlist of the Aquatic Moll. of South Australia, 1893, but his species has been recognized as an immature Diloma Adelaide, Philippi. It has been named after Mr. Walter Reed, a South Aus- tralian collector, who took it on our shores. 308 Adeorbis kimberi, n. sp. Pl. xxix., figs. 1, 2. Shell minute, translucent, oval. Whorls 24. Spire very low. Apex blunt; protoconch half a whorl, its apex buried, smooth, rounded, marked off from the spire-whorl by a scar. Suture impressed, slightly excavate. Periphery sharply carinate. Base very flatly rounded, and pressed flat at the carina. Umbilicus very wide and not defined. Aper-. ture roundly oval, nearly on the basal plane; outer hp uni- formly round, simple, thin, pinched into a minute gutter close to the suture; inner lip is a thin glaze over the body-whorl. Columella slightly arcuate, its edge posteriorly expanded and reflected over the umbilicus. Sculpture: crowded fine micro- scopic curved accremental lines; on the base more valid and fewer, and as radiating curved wrinkles, which faintly crinkle the carina. Dim.—Greatest diameter, 3°77 mm.; smallest, 2°9 mm.; height, 1°2 mm. Locality.— Aldinga (Kimber). Dredged in St. Vincent Gulf in about 20 fathoms (Verco). Diagnosis.—It is allied to A. angas:x, Adams, but has not the distant tubercles on the carina. It is named after the collector who found it. Torcula runcinata, Watson. Pl. xxix,, fig. 14. Turritella runcinata, Watson, Proc. Linn. Soc., Lond., 1881, vol. xv., p. 218; Chall. Zool., 1886, Gasteropoda, vol. xv., p. 475, pitas) hes. An individual of 38 mm. in length was dredged alive. The radula is exceedingly small compared with the size of the shell. It has a somewhat quadrate rachidian tooth, finely denticulated, along the edge of its upper border, bent forward at a sharp angle. The single lateral is transversely rhom- boidal, about twice as large as the central, and is also finely denticulate along the free edge of its bent-forward upper mar- gin. The two marginals, elbowed about their middle, have a flange projecting from their upper border, and finely den- tate. Miss J. Donald, in a paper on “Some Recent Gastero- poda, referred to the Family Turritellide, and their Supposed Relationship to the Murchisoniide,”’ read January, 1900, and published in Pro. Mal. Soc., London, 1901, p. 47, ete., men- tions 7. runcinata, Watson, among other species of 7'wrritella, and from their deep labral sinus suggests their affinity with Murchisonia. The Pleurotomariide and Murchisoniide are regarded as belonging to the Rhipidoglossa. But the radula of 7’. runcinata, Watson, plainly places it among the Tenioglossa, and allies it with the ordinary forms of 7wurr- tella, rather than with Murchisonia. Tf therefore Murchi- 309 sonia is to be associated with those Twrritellas which Miss Donald has grouped under a new section; Colpospira, because of their deep sinus, this group must still be placed among the Turritellide, and Murchisonia must be shifted with them into the same family, among the Tzenioglossa, and separated from the Pleurotomariide and other Rhipidoglossa. But the resemblances in the test of her ('o/pospira, and of Murchisonia are scarcely sufficient to justify this. Actzon roseus, Hedley, var. areatus, new var. Act@on roseus, n. sp., Hedley, Proc. Linn. Soc., New South Wales, 1905, p. 535, pl. xaxiii., f. 42. Type locality—Wyargine Point, Middle Harbour, Syduey; also Hden, New South Wales. Our South Australian shell has a shorter spire and a longer aperture ; also two white spiral bands and several undu- lating axial bands, which break the colour up into oblong blotches. | Dredged in 18 fathoms, Investigator Strait; 22 fathoms, Yankalilla Bay; 15 fathoms, off Point Marsden, Kangaroo Island; and 25 fathoms, Thorny Passage, Spencer Gulf; all dead. Actzon retusus, n. sp. Pl. xxix., fig. 12. Shell oval, shining, translucent, yellowish-white, thin, of six whorls. Protoconch of one whorl, apex immersed, convex, quite smooth, ending abruptly in an oblique retrocurrent scar. Spire whorls roundly shouldered immediately below the suture, then convexly sloping. Suture deeply narrowly chan- nelled. Body-whorl roundly-obliquely cylindrical. Aperture obliquely-arcuately pyriform. Outer lip simple, smooth inside, finely-crinkled outside, very slightly compressed above its centre ; basal lip well-rounded, its inner half distinctly evert- ed. Columella with a wide, simple oblique fold just below the base of the body-whorl, over which the thin inner lip is applied to join the labrum at the suture. Umbilicus small. Spiral incisions, six in the penultimate, forty in the body- whorl, extending to the columella, where they become crowded and fine. Very delicate, close-set, axial strie cross the inci- sions, which they punctate, climb, and crenulate their sides, and traverse the intervening flat spiral bands. Dim.—Length, 9°4 mm.; breadth, 61 mm. Length of aperture, 6°5 mm.; width, 2°9 mm. Locality.—Type, 200 fathoms, off Beachport, with two other examples; also in 100, 110, and 150 fathoms; off Cape Jaffa in 90 and 130 fathoms; N.W. of Cape Borda in 60 fa- thoms. In good condition, but none alive. Diagnosis.—It differs from A. roseus, Hedley, var. areatus, Verco, in having a much less acute apex, a more elevated spire, narrower incisions, more crowded axial striz, a less pro- 310 nounced columellar fold, and the absence of the colour-pat- tern. Variations.—One shell is somewhat more _ ventricose, another more elate, with more valid axial strie; the former has two faint rusty blotches of colour on the dorsum of the body-whorl, a little below the suture; the latter has the trace of a pinkish tinge.

It has been dredged dead in Hardwicke Bay, Spencer Gulf, Investigator Strait, St. Vincent Gulf, and Backstairs Passage, at all depths from 14 to 22 fathoms, and at 62 fathoms N.W. of Cape Borda. It has been taken alive at 15 fathoms, Inves- tigator Strait. It exhibits the following variations:—The middle third of the body-whorl may be slightly concavely compressed. The axial sculpture may vary from microscopic accremental strie, just punctating the spiral incisions, when these are narrow, or crenulating their edges when wider, up to fairly well- marked oblique striz, which divide the wide incisions into squarely-rounded shallow pits, and cross the intervening flat riblets. The spiral incisions may be equidistant all over the body-whorl, or absent from the upper half of the body-whorl, or they may be trebly distant here. They may be merely very fine and shallow punctate engravings, or rather wide furrows with crenulated edges, or latticed into squarish pits. But all variations grade into one another. Pupa hyalina, n. sp. Pl. xxix,, fig. 11. Shell minute, diaphanous, fusiformly oval, five whorls. Protoconch distinct, glassy, smooth. Suture adpressed. Whorls sloping, convex. Aperture narrow, long, and pyri- form. Outer lip uniformly curved, simple, thin, continued into a round basal lip, which is thickened towards the colu- mella. The inner lip is a thin glaze over the body-whorl, and is expanded slightly beyond the pillar over the perforation. There is a curve of the columella forming a plait running into the basal lip, and a second well-marked oblique plait where the pillar joins the body-whorl. The spire-whorls have sub- lenticular wavy spiral incisions, which also cover the body- whorl, being most marked at the base, and nearly as well marked below the suture. Very fine, rather sinuous, accre- mental striz. Colourless. 311 Dim.—Length, 3 mm.; diameter, 1°55 mm.; length of aperture, 2°2 mm. Locality.—Fowler and Streaky Bays (Tate).

It was not taken in shallower waters off the same place, and has not been taken on the South Australian beaches. It ap- pears not to have been recorded from Victoria nor from New South Wales. Crassatellites kingicola, Lamarck. This shell was referred to by me in these Transactions, vol. xxix., 1905, p. 169, as C. ponderosus, Gmelin. It appears now that our (. castanea, Reeve, should be regarded as a variety of C. kingicola, Lamarck. It has been dredged in a subfossil state in soft limestone in the Port Adelaide Channel. One valve was taken in 40 fathoms, and two in 100 fathoms off Beachport, both small and poor. Hitherto, therefore, its habitat has been very re- stricted as to depth, viz., from 15 to 20 fathoms.

None were dredged alive, but valves in good condition were obtained. Off Beachport, at 40 fathoms, 31 valves; at 49 fathoms, 22 valves; at 100 fathoms, 4 valves; at 110 fa- thoms, 20 valves; at 150 fathoms, 17 valves; and at 200 fa- thoms, 2 valves. Off Cape Borda, at 55 fathoms, 7 valves; and at 62 fathoms, 5 valves. Off Cape Jaffa, in 130 fathoms, 14 valves. This seems not to occur in the gulfs of South Aus- tralia, but to be an ocean form, and to affect the deeper waters. Crassatellites carnea, Tate. Crassatella carnea, Tate, Trans. Roy. Soc., S. Austr., vol. SVs Ps 20a3; plore £. de das Type locality—Yankalilla Bay. It has been dredged alive at all depths from 9 to 23 fathoms, most abundantly from 20 to 23 fathoms. Valves have been taken, small and in poor condition, off Beachport at 110 and 200 fathoms, and off Cape Jaffa, in 90 fathoms. Comparatively large valves were taken off Beachport in 40 312 fathoms, the largest being 25 mm. antero-posteriorly, and 20 mm. umbo-ventrally. Tate, in his original diagnosis, re- marked: “This species is very like C. aurora and C. Banksii, Adams and Angas, inhabiting Bass Straits, with regard to colour, ornament, and crenated margin of valves. It is, how- ever, of a different form, 1s as widely removed from (’. aurora as that species is from (. Banksi; thus, C. Banksw is oblong- ovate, CU’. aurora transversely ovate, and (’. carnea is more rotund. They may eventually prove to be variations in shape of an aggregate species.” The proportion of length to height in C. aurora is 24 to 17, or as 100 to 71. That of Tate’s type is 22 to 19, or 100 to 86°8. That of my largest is 25 to 20, or 100 to 80. There fore my largest shell approximates somewhat more to the type of C. aurora than does Tate’s type of C. carnea, but is still much shorter; and as my larger shell is larger than Angas’s type, and is nevertheless shorter, and is an old stout shell, the difference is not. explained by the senility of Angas’s shell. C. carnea may consequently be retained for the pre- sent as a distinct species. Crassatellites banksii, Adams and Angas, var. angustior ; n. var. Crassatella banksii, Adams and Angas, Proc. Zool.

Kuster, 1886, bd. x., abt. i1., p. 26, pl. vii., gee es In 55 fathoms north-west of Cape Borda I dredged 16 small and 33 large valves of a species which corresponds with C. Banksii in its oblong-ovate shape and truncated posterior end and colouring. Its dimensions, however, do not corres- pond. It is narrower antero-posteriorly for the same height. C. banksit is 16 mm. long by 10 high; mine are 12 mm. long by 10°2 high—hence the name angustior. My largest specimen is 23 mm. by 20°5. To be in proportion it should be 32°8 mm. long instead of 23. I have preferred to call it a variety rather than create another species based on this one difference. It has not occurred elsewhere in my dredging. Crassatellites producta, Verco. Crassatella producta, n. sp., Trans. Roy. Soc., S. Austr., 1895, vol. xiaciip. 92, phicl., 72. Fifty valves were dredged off Cape Borda in 55 fathoms, in very good condition. Beyond this depth in the same neigh- bourhood at 60 and 62 fathoms; off the Neptunes, in 104 fa- thoms; and off Beachport, in 110 fathoms; from one to six valves in poor preservation were obtained, and none beyond. Its habitat is probably from 15 to 20 fathoms, up to 50. 313 Crassatellites micra, Verco. Orasatella micra, Verco., Trans. Roy. Soc., S.

Umbo prominent, incurved, prosogyre, acute. Post- dorsal side roundly sloping ; anterior dorsal side concave near the umbo, then nearly straight, continuing into a well-rounded front side; ventral border with a uniform pen curve, merging into the slope of the posterior side, with an inconspicuous round angulation. The surface is cor- rugated with about twenty solid wide concentric ribs, more projecting at their upper border, wider than their interspaces. For about 2°5 mm. from the apex the surface is smooth. Inner border simple and smooth. Colour light horn-tint. Dim.—Antero-posterior diameter, 10°3 mm.; umbo-ven- tral, 9°4 mm.; sectional of the two valves, 4°25. Locality.—Off Beachport, in 100 fathoms, 2 valves; 150 fathoms, 14 valves. Diagnosis.—In shape it is very like C. micra, Verco; but this is a much smaller shell, with an equal number of con- centric ribs, and these extend quite up to the apex. It closely approaches C. discus, Hedley, in the smooth area near the umbo, and in the marked concentric ribbing, but has the front much more produced, and the postero-lateral area not flat or truncated at the border. Variations.—In some the angle at the umbo is more acute and in others less than in the type, so that the shell is pro- portionally narrower or wider. In some, especially the wider ones, there is a tendency to slight truncation in the posterior part of the ventral border. Lima multicostata, Sowerby. Inma multicostata, Sowerby, Thes.

TWENTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE For THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1907. EvENING MEETINGS. The monthly meetings of the Section, held during the winter months, have been well attended, and the exhibits numerous and instructive. On October 16, 1906, Dr. Ramsay Smith gave an in- teresting lecture in the Prince of Wales Lecture Theatre (kindly lent by the University for the occasion) on his tour through Northern Australia and the Hast. The lecture dealt specially with the Australian aboriginals in their ethnology and customs, and was illustrated by a large number of ex- cellent lantern slides. November 20. Dr. R. 8. Rogers, M.A., delivered the Chairman’s Address, which had been unavoidably postponed. His subject was the work of Robert Brown, the Naturalist on board the “Investigator” with Flinders. The lecturer emphasized the debt which Australia owes to Brown, who amidst great difficulties collected and named a very great number of Australian plants. April 16, 1907. Dr. Pulleine gave a lecture on ‘The Classification of Australian Birds,” illustrated by a great number of specimens. May 21. Papers were read supplying observations made during the Easter excursion to Kangaroo Island, as follows : — Dr. R. 8. Rogers, on ichthiology; Mr. J. W. Mellor, ornith- ology; Mr. Griffiths, entomology; and Mr. W. H. Selway, on botany. June 18. Mr. D. Mawson, B.E., B.Sc., gave an interesting account of his journey to Mount Kosciusko, ‘‘the roof of Aus- tralia.” July 16. Dr. H. Pulleine, on the “Classification of 341 Spiders,’ with their life history, habits, etc., illustrated by references to the common house and garden spiders. August 20. Mr. J. G. O. Tepper. F.L.S., discoursed on “Natural History Objects of Common Interest,” based on a miscellaneous collection of insects forwarded to him by an anonymous correspondent. EXCURSIONS. The first of the year was held on October 13 at Grenville Glen by invitation of Mr. G. J. Ireland, when an opportunity was afforded of exploring the sources of Brown Hill Creek at Crafers. The leading feature was the collection of botanical specimens which were in great profusion along the creek, a spot that is not much disturbed by man or beast. Next followed the three days’ excursion on November 10, 11, and 12, with Myponga as the rendezvous. This district is one of the best within comparatively easy reach of the city for botanical work. In this locality are to be found many rare specimens of interest not met with in the Mount Lofty Ranges. The party was comfortably provided for at private houses. On the second day after arrival the party was con- ducted to Lovely Valley, on the Yankalilla Road, and on the following day the swampy country was exploited, where collectors had an interesting time amongst both land and water plants. Orchid-hunters were particularly well favoured. This perhaps most interesting order of all our native flowers has become quite an interesting feature of all the field work since its special introduction by our late Chairman, Dr. Rogers, who is a recognized authority on the subject, and has described four new species and three new to the State, during the year, in the Transactions of the Royal Society of South Australia. The annual picnic was held on December 15 at the Na- tional Park. Following the afternoon’s enjoyment, the Chair. man, Mr. J. McC. Black, invited the party to tea at the Belair Hotel. During midsummer two marine excursions were ar- ranged, which took place in February and March. The Port Adelaide River, as far as the Outer Harbour, was the selected ground for dredging operations. On these occasions members belonging to the Microscopical Section joined in the outing, and interesting results were obtained. The Easter holidays were taken advantage of by a num- ber of members, who arranged to visit Kangaroo Island. This was the first occasion upon which the section had gone so far afield. Penneshaw was made the centre for operations, and excursions were made to Antechamber Bay, the south coast, and Mount Thisbe, at the head of American River. The 342 special studies were ornithology, entomology, and botany. The collectors in each of these branches were amply repaid for the journeyings, and the Easter trip to Kangaroo Island will probably become an annual fixture. May 4 found the members again in the field at Upper Sturt, taking the road via the National Park. The results obtained on this excursion were chiefly ornithological. It is gratifying to note that the native birds, whilst driven from the open by the extension of the areas of closer settlement,. find in the park a secure retreat. Hallett’s Cove has special attractions for the naturalist, and on June 3 fifty members, with the Microscopical Section, journeyed thither for a whole day’s excursion, which yielded points of interest in most departments of natural-history studies. On June 15 the Mount Lofty district was again visited, the vicinity west of the railway station being explored. The district is the home of the Hpacris, and the scrub was a beau- tiful profusion of red colourings from this favourite flower. Mr. T. D. Smeaton led the party on this occasion, and amongst many other observations drew attention to the geclogical for- mation of the hills, and the consequent peculiarities of their physical geography. Athelstone, at the foot of the Black Hill, is a popular locality, and a good number travelled thither. It was suit- able weather for climbing, and some of the members gained the summit of the hill. Botanists were particularly well re- warded in collecting early varieties of plants. July 27 was the one day of the year’s arrangements that could not be counted a success. The appointment was a walk across the swampy country from the Glenelg Railway to a ridge of pine forest on the Grange seacoast. The weather and the place were equally uninviting, and the few mem- bers who essayed the journey were disappointed with the re- sult. Blackwood easily holds the palm for botany of all the districts near to the city, and by the kind permission of Mr. C. Downer, the Craigburn Estate was traversed as far as time would permit, on August 17. Where the flowers are, there also are the insects and the birds, and the naturalists always enjoy a ramble in this district, for so much is to be observed. For business purposes, the year for the Section closes on September 30, and the annual general meeting is held on the third Tuesday of the same month. The last excursion during the business year, therefore, was held on the holiday proctaim- ed for September 1. This gave the opportunity to hold a three-days’ outing to Victor Harbour. The party left on 343 the Saturday afternoon, and broke the journey for a ramble in the Aldgate scrub, after which tea was arranged, and the train taken to complete the journey to the Harbour. It was eight years since the section had paid a visit to the place. On the second day they drove out towards Square Water- hole, where many rare things are to be found, and amply repaid for the visit. The third day a trip was taken to the glaciated pavement, known as “Selwyn’s Rock.” The coast- line was not neglected by the members, and the excursion was regarded as a success. From this summary of the evening- and day-work of the year it will be seen that the Section has had its time and opportunities fully and profitably occupied. The members on the roll number 114. which is an in- crease of 10 for the year. J. McC. Brack, Chairman. E. H. Lock, Hon. Sec. NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE NATIVE FAUNA AND FLORA PROTECTION COMMITTEE OF THE FIELD NATURALISTS’ SECTION OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA, FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER, 1907. In the past year some further work has been done with regard to the proposed Kangaroo Island reserve. On April 20, by arrangement made through Mr. T. H. Smeaton, M.P., the Chairman, Mr. Dixon, and Mr. Ashby, had an interview with the Premier, who intimated that, in consequence of the lessees of portion of the 300 square miles asked for demand- ing too high a price for the surrender of their holdings, the Cabinet could grant only the Cape Borda lighthouse reserve, containing 60 square miles. Regarding the trustees for the reserve, the Premier requested that a scheme for their ap- pointment should be sent to him. Subsequently a letter was sent, on behalf of the committee, thanking the Premier for the promise of the 60 miles, suggesting that the Act consti- tuting the park should provide for further extension to the area originally asked for, and recommending that the fol- lowing divisions of natural history, namely, general zoology, ornithology, marine zoology, and botany, should be repre- sented upon the Board of Trustees, one gentleman represent- ing each division being nominated by the University, and one representing each division by the Royal Society. No reply has yet been received; but the committee hope that their suggestions may be adopted, and that mistakes such 344 as have been made in appointing the Board of the National Park be thus avoided. The committee is pleased to learn that the Crown lands in the districts of Barossa, Para Wirra, and Mount Crawford have been proclaimed a kangaroo dis- trict, and that kangaroos will be absolutely protected there- in for a period of ten years. They have under consideration the question of recommending the proclamation of other dis- tricts. The Committee is also glad to know that nature study is now to find a place in our public-schools curriculum, a course which they recommended at a deputation which waited upon the Minister of Education about fifteen years ago.
