The following species was reported from NSW by
Laseron (1975), but the status is doubtful:
Cancellaria australis Sowerby, 1832: The
identity of this species is unclear. It is based on syntypes from
"New South Wales", but in 1832 this included Queensland, and
Sowerby was not scrupulous with locality data anyway. It is probably
the same as the Queensland species figured by Garrard (1975) as Cancellaria
elegans (R. Petit, pers. com.).
These are tropical Indo-West Pacific species, which
have been rarely recorded from NSW:
Scalptia amasia (Iredale, 1930). Three
records from NSW; Wooli (Garrard, 1975), Sydney (Coleman, 2003), Long
Bay, Sydney (Barnes Collection)
Scalptia bicolor (Hinds, 1843). One record
from Long Bay, Sydney (Barnes Collection)
Scalptia crossei (Semper, 1861). One record
from Angourie.
