Localities: New Golden Hind Station 80, Dagg's Sound, inside a rock bar, 58 fathoms (figured specimen); Station 81, Anchorage Arm, Dagg's Sound, 17 fathoms; Station 2, Narrows, Long Sound, Preservation Inlet, 39 fathoms; Station 39, Edwardson Sound, entrance to Northport, 58 fathoms; Station 75, east channel between John's Islands, Breaksea Sound, 32 fathoms. Schizotrochus mantelli (Woodward). (Plate 8, fig. 3.) Shell of moderate size for genus, turbinate, umbilicate. Whorls 3 ½, keeled, with a broad, gently sloping shoulder, and fasciole bounded by raised shell lamellae. On spire whorls the periphery is almost halfway between sutures. Inner lip characteristic, a limb passing vertically into the umbilicus as a columella, separated by an indistinct groove from the smear of parietal callus. Sculpture of fine spiral threads, about 15 above the fasciole, and 25 below on the body whorl, crossed by stronger radials, decussating the surface. Radials markedly discrepant, about 50 above the periphery on the last whorl, but about twice that number on the base; some radials stop short of the umbilicus. Height, 2·6; diameter, 3 mm. (figured specimen). Localities: New Golden Hind Station 80, Dagg's Sound, inside a rock bar in 58 fathoms (figured); Station 2, Narrows, Long Sound, Preservation Inlet, in 19–22 fathoms. Pilsbry (Man. Conch., 12, p. 54, Pl. 57, fig. 12) quotes Woodward's description of Scissurella mantelli and offers a copy of the original figure; these are the available sources of information on a species which was based on a single specimen from “New Zealand” and has not been since recognised, apart from the confusion with regia noted under that species heading. The Fiordland shell here described and figured is not greatly different from mantelli as judged from the figure; it may have a narrower anal fasciole, and the discrepancy between the axial sculpture on shoulder and base may be greater than in the type of mantelli (which, however, certainly has discrepant sculpture). Comparison of specimens would be necessary to establish these differences. The figure of mantelli shows a columella descending from the umbilicus as in the present examples. All told, it seems best to use mantelli to cover the form here figured. Genus Scissurella d'Orbigny. Scissurella stellae n.sp. (Pl. 6, fig. 3; Pl. 8, fig. 4.) Similar to S. fairchildi Powell and to S. prendevillei Powell, but more compressed dorsoventrally, resulting in a difference in form and aperture, and with different sculpture. Spire depressed, not visible above shoulder. Fifteen oblique strong axials on the body whorl; above the fascicle, fine arcuate axials develop on the last half whorl; they do not reach the fasciole. Umbilicus wide, with about three spiral threads, weaker spiral threads on the base of body whorl, but none immediately below fasciole, nor on shoulder. Fasciole bordered by raised edges, extending back half a whorl, represented by a descending groove back to the penultimate whorl where the basal axials extend on to the shoulder. Peristome complete, parietal wall almost straight. Columella flexed, continuous with the peristome, but separated
