Abstract
Abstract The egg mass of the prosobranch Melo miltonis (Griffith and Pidgeon, 1834) from the southern Australian region is described in some detail and figured. It is one of the largest known prosobranch egg masses, consisting of about 100 spirally arranged capsules, each containing a single embryo, measuring 26 mm at hatching. The reproductive strategy in the Volutidae is summarized.
