The adapter is a 'KEPCOR DELUXE SUPER WIDE SEMI FISH-EYE'.
I've not found any references to it on the internet - mine came from a car boot sale - where I persuaded the seller to separate it from the camera it was on. I got it for £12, but probably could have got the whole camera for the same - but it was a no-name film camera & I had enough to carry!

Trouble is it's got me after the Pentax 10-17...
...I've just lost on several used ones in the £200-£250 region - that's twice what I've paid for any other lens.

What kind of adapter is it if I may ask. Would be interested myself as a real Fisheye is too expensive.
Kind regards
