On the classificatory position and synonyms of Eatoniella rufilabrtis

The subject of this communication, which has long been known as Bithynia, or Tatea huonensis, though another specific name has priority of fourteen years, has hitherto been handed about from genus to genus without finding a resting place.<br>For some years past I have been convinced of the incompatibility of its reference to those families under which it has been placed its location under Rissoininae was the first step which led me to its present classificatory position in the genus Eatoniella.<br>The main portion of this essay was written twelve years ago, but the desire to fully work out the anatomical characters has always been my plea for postponement of publication now, however, the opportunity of addressing the conchologists of Tasmania, who have most materially contributed to the bibliography of the species, cannot be resisted, though further study in the direction indicated is still very desirable.
