Abstract

The species here described include no startling novelties,
but are more or less closely related to previously
known forms. They have come from various parts of our
coasts, and from low water mark down to one hundred
fathoms, and may be described as the balance from several
years collecting left after more striking species have been
dealt with. The types of the new species will be presented
to the Tasmanian Museum. Includes illustrative plates.
