| Summary: | Asperdaphne perissa (Hedley 1909) (Figure 2A) Mangelia perissa Hedley, 1909, p. 459, pl. 44, figs. 96, 97. Asperdaphne perissa – Hedley, 1922, p. 342. Material examined Bohai Gulf and Yellow Sea. 2 specs, CN 57–033, 14 April 1957; 1 spec, CN 53–14, 38°46.2 ′ N, 122°20.5 ′ E, sand, mud and shell debris 51 m; 1 spec, CN y206, 38° 46.2 ′ N, 122°20.5 ′ E, 51.5 m, 25 October 1957. SCS. 1 spec, CN N32B-37, 20°09 ′ N, 110°15 ′ E, coarse sand and gravel, 68 m. Holotype AMS C. 27443, 7.4 × 2.9 mm, Cairns Reef Lagoon and between Cairns Reef and Hope Island, Great Barrier Reef, Queensland. Distribution Bohai Gulf, Yellow Sea, Taiwan and SCS; Japan, Australia. Remarks Kuroda et al. (1971) reported the colour of the species, based on specimens from Japanese waters, with light yellowish brown, bearing two vertical and lateral brown zones. All our five specimens are pure white, without colourful zones. This may be caused by long-term preservation in alcohol. The habitat of this species was muddy sand and gravel sediments.
