Remarks. Tenison Woods did not publish a description of Fusus meredithiae merely figuring it in the same paper that he described F. gracillimus . Type specimens for neither survive. Tate (1888) pointed out that F. gracillimus was preoccupied and assumed that F. meredithiae was a replacement for it.
