Abstract

Since the publication of Tate and May's Revised
Census, in 1901, a considerable number of species new
to the Tasmanian molluscan fauna have become known
to me, and I think it is well to place the names on record.
I also offer observations on several species, and
take the opportunity to describe and figure what appear
to be three species new to science. This paper does not
in any way refer to the large mass of new material lately
dredged off Cape Pillar by C. Hedley and myself.
Includes List of new records, with habitat and remarks includes plate of shells.
