Popis
Six to nine fathoms, Sow and Pigs Reef, Port Jackson, the specimen figured 9 mm. in length. Also 14 fathoms off Long Reef, and 30-35 fathoms off Crookhaven.
This and the following three species form a fairly well defined section of Marginella in which the spire is entirely submerged, and which is perhaps worthy of at least sub-generic rank. There are, however, connecting links, and I do not think this step, in the light of our present knowledge, is justified. Ovulum is the largest of the group, and is a well defined and constant species.
