MARINE AND FRESH-WATER MOLLUSKS

OF THE SOLOMON ISLANDS

> 3 ^

ALAN SOLEM

MUSEUM OP ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN

In December, 1948, Captain J. M. Ross presented Chicago
Natural History Museum with a collection of land, fresh-water and
marine shells from the Solomon Islands. These shells were collected
by a missionary, Dr. C. E. Fox, in the Solomons from 1915 to 1945.
Dr. Fox gave the shells to Captain Ross, who turned them over to
the Museum. Definitive localities did not accompany the shells,
so in the collection they are simply listed as coming from the Solo-
mon Islands.

As part of my assigned work during the summer of 1952 as a
temporary assistant in the Division of Lower Invertebrates, I sorted,
identified, and incorporated these shells into the Museum collection.
Evidently this was a "picked" assortment, as the collection turned
out to be surprisingly rich in species, but usually with only one or
two individuals of each. All of the material was in good condition,
and, with five exceptions, was classified to the specific level. A total
of 304 species and varieties was represented in this collection.

In the course of identification, reference was made to the litera-
ture on this area. Although there have been numerous papers writ-
ten on the land-snail fauna of the Solomons, the marine and fresh-
water mollusks have been relatively neglected. Two papers by
Edgar A. Smith (1876 and 1885), one by H. B. Guppy (1887), one
by Dall (1910), one by Dautzenberg (1910), and one by Eyerdam
(1951) appear to be the major sources of information. Of course
there are many scattered references in various monographs, but no
attempt was made to collect these data. Other lots in the Museum
collection labeled merely "Solomon Islands" are not listed.

No general list has appeared since Dautzenberg's, and since
there was a comparatively small overlap between that list and the
Ross collection, it was thought worth while to compile a list of the

marine and fresh-water species in the Ross collection, incorporating
previous references and some additional material in Chicago Natural
History Museum. The specimens Dall reported on are in the Chi-
cago Natural History Museum collection and have been reworked
by Dr. Fritz Haas in the course of revising the entire collection.
Careful inspection by both Dr. Haas and myself shows that this
material contained several misidentifications which are corrected
below, the specimens being listed only under the correct name.

Except within the family Conidae the nomenclature used below
is that of Chicago Natural History Museum, which is essentially a
slight modification of the system proposed by Thiele. To the best
of my ability, names used by Smith, Guppy, and Dautzenberg, of
species not represented in the Museum collection, have been brought
into harmony with the remainder of the nomenclature. In several
cases this system has resulted in relegating a name to synonymy.
For the purpose of clarity, the discarded name has been included in
parentheses following the name I have adopted. In dubious cases
I have left the original designation untouched and have enclosed
the generic name in quotation marks. The resulting nomenclature
is offered to both "lumpers" and "splitters" with due apologies for
whatever crimes they may feel have been committed. Names origi-
nally proposed by Chemnitz have been tentatively assigned to later
authors.

In addition, a great deal of work with Central Pacific marine
shells has led me to question the validity of several names proposed
by Dall, Bartsch, and Rehder (1938). Since some of these species
were included in the Ross collection, I have tentatively indicated a
few cases of possible synonymy. Comments from colleagues would
be appreciated.

Dr. Fritz Haas, Curator of Lower Invertebrates, Chicago Nat-
ural History Museum, has entrusted me with this work and has
given invaluable help in several difficult determinations, so that I
am deeply indebted to him.

A total of 529 species and varieties of marine and fresh-water
shells is reported below, and in each case the source of the record is
given. In addition one specimen of the brachiopod Frenulina san-
guinolenta Gmelin was in the collection. The symbols used are to
be interpreted as follows: F, Fox collection; E, reported by Eyer-
dam; S, reported by Smith; G, reported by Guppy; D, reported by
Dautzenberg; Dall, corrected classification of material reported by
Dall; and C.N.H.M., miscellaneous lots in Chicago Natural History
