Abstract

Description of sixteen new shells obtained from various locations around Tasmania. The author dredged a specimen of Crosse Concinna Angus in 17
fms., off Kelso, Tamar River. Until now, he believed this
species has only been found at Port Jackson, N.S.W., where
it is very rare. He was interested to be able to add this rare
species to the fauna of Tasmania.
