To the we.st of the small tidal creek, where the tran-
sects were made, Tcrchmliii snicala were most common
on the mud snrlaee. with fifi^i oeciirrin<; on the mud.
The difference between hal)itats occupied to the east

In contrast to Terchralia sulcata, the population ol 7'

There are also dilferences in the densities ot the two

There is a clear diifei'ence in tlu' size trei|iieiKv char-
acteristics ot Terchralia sulcata an<l T. .scndstriata at
Xhuidorah (Table 1: FiL^nre 3). The mean size of adult

smallest adult T snuistriata was S mm lari^er than the
larijest adult 7' sulcata.
Exaniiiiation ot specimens in museiuns shows that the
,\iistralian distributional data provided for Terchralia sul-
cata bv Ilonbritk (1991) are inacctirate. Essentiallv
Iloubrick assume<I tlie hvo species had tlie same geo-
graphical range on the north coast of Australia: from
Shark Bav, Westeiii .\ustnilia, to southeiTi Queenslaiul.
Terchralia snuistriafa is in fact widi'lv distributed along
the north coast ol tlie continent fiom Sliai'k Bav, West-
ern .Austialia, to Keppel Bav on the east coast of
(,)ueensland (F'igure 4). Terchralia sulcata also extends
south to Keppel Bav, Queensland, but it is restrii'ted to
the Kimbei'lev, from Broomi- northwai'd. in Western
.Australia. In the text of liis paper. Ilonbrick (1991) refers
to specimens of T sulcata tiom more southerly localities
in Westei-n Australia: Rowlev Slioals (USNM 847084)
and Bav of Best. Xorth West Cape (USNM SOlfiOfi).
Specimens ol both lots were re-examined for the present
papei-. The label for USNM 847084 clearly states the
specimens ot 7. sulcata were collected in Broome In the
H<iwlev Shoals pApedition. Limited collecting was done
in Broome before sailing tor the Bovviev Shoals. The
shoals are open ocean i-oral leid atolls and no Terciiralia
occur there (Wells and Slack-Smith, 19S(i). Thi' speci-
men from the Bav of Best (USNM S()1606) was ajipar-
entlv first lonsidered to bi' T. sulcata bv Ilonbric'k, lie
later changed his iniiKl and included the spetimen in T
.scmi.sthata in the Smithsonian collection, but appai'i'utlv
neglected to change his wiitteii notes. That specimen
and all others collected in the Bav of Rest are in fact T.

Distrihiilioii: The species is ouK known from tlii' t\pe
loeiililv.
EtMiiologN: The species is named after the RA' Er)-
iAi;i)() 1,. lloi.MBFRG, aboard of which this species was
collected.
Remarks: The general shell outline and the shell sur-
face sculpture of well-marked commarginal regularly
spaced ribs are chagnostic features of Ncolepton Iwlm-
b('r<ii \w\\ species. Ncolepton holmhrn^i is most similar
to Ncolepton georgianutn new species, differing in hav-
ing a more inflated shell, not much inflated protoconch
antl slu'll surface with stronger and regularlv spaced
commarginal ribs. The more triangular shell outline with
nearly equally arcuate anterior and posterior ends is also
distinctive for .V. holmhergi. The hinge in N. Iiobubcrgi
differs in ha\ing a high carihnal 1, with a wider base and
triangular distal cusp.
W'olcpton hnpci. another similar species, clearK dif-
fers from A'. Iiohnbcrgi bv its larger size, smooth shell
surface, stronger hinge teeth and whitish periostracum.
Ncolepton hobnhcrgi differs from Ncolepton falklan-
dieiun bv its well-marked shell surface sculpture and not
prominent beaks. N. hobnbcrgi differs from the other
Magellanic Ncolepton species (A', cobbi, N. concentriaim
and A', beunctti) in being smaller, ha\ing a relativek' low-
er and markedh' ovate shell outline.

of the attenuated [lostt'rior aperture and lirations 011 the
inner surface of the oiiti.'r lip. the Chipola Mrtnlii is as-
signed to the subgenus Mctiilii.
There has been considerable nncertaint\ about the
correct faiiiiK elassifii'ation of Miiiihi. In a review of this
contro\ers\. Boueliet ( I9SiS) noted that some in\estiga-
tors opted to keep the genus in the famik Buccinidae.
while others felt that certain anatomical features of the
radula justified assigumeiit to the faniilv Colubrariidae.
Ben and Maxwell (1987), in an extensive revision of the
Coliihnirui and related genera, classified Mctiila, Colii-
braiia. and several related genera in the siibfamilv Pis-
aniinae into the Buccinidae. Wrmeij (20011. in his re-
view of the subfamilv Pisaniinae. supported the place-
ment of Mctula in the C^olubrariidae, which he main-
tained as a separate familv near Buccinidae. His decision
was based upon anatomical characteristics, sliell mor-
phokigv'. and ecologii'al factors. Commensurate with his
findings, herein we follow \ermeijs assiginnent.
Mctuhi (M(iiil(0 iniocciiicii comes from the Lower
Miocene C'liipola Formation, which has an age range ol
fS to f9 million vears (Jones et al.. 1993). Therefore,
this uewlv discovered s|iecies is the oldest Neogeue Mc-
luhi thus far repoiied. In overall form it bears a stronger
similaritv to .\/. jiincvd Imm the L'ppi'r Eocene Barton
Beds of England (I'"igme â– > than to the more recent

ABSTRACT
A new species ol the aiicillitl t^eiius Ainiihld is deserilied Ikiiii
the soutiiwesteni Atlaiitie oft Brazil. I'mguaN. and Arijeiitina.
Aiudldd joscairlosi new species was identified as Aiicillii dim-
iilidlii and \ liinkmiUii l)v pre\ious aullidrs. Detailed stnd\
ol the t\pe material and other specimens ol the two latter ta\a
allowed lor the recognition of the new species. Adults and ju-
\eniles ot Aiiuihid josccarlosi ne\\' species from sexeral localities
alont; the Sonthwestern .Atlantic coast are illustrated, described
and compared to (itlier Ining congeners.
iN'rKoni'CTiox
Tlie genera Aiiuilila. Aiicillii. and .se\'eral other Ancillar-
iinae from the southeastern Atlantic were tliorongliK
stndii'd In Kilhurn (1977, UiSO, UISI. 1993). Killnnii
and Boiichet (19S8) also .studied the genus ,\;;i(//(/r/ Ironi
New Caledonia de.serihing tour new species and one
.suh.speeies. Besides Ainahhi juscaniosi new specie.s.
tliere are loin' species ot Ancillariinae in the southwe.st-
ern .Atlantic: Aiuilhi jdiistoi .Matthews, Matthews and
Dijek. 19S(). .A. iHcsjxniiicilld^ i)i(iltluir\i Bni'cli and
Burch, 19fi7 and Ehunui liiuiin/ii (Beniardi, 1S59).
AiiKihIa tfinkcn ilia {Swain.son, 1S25) occurs only off
northern South .America {i.e. Isia Margarita, N'enezuela).
Rio.s (1994) e.xpre.s.sed donlits ahout the presence of this
species off Brazil. There is not. howeser, a s\stematic
treatment of the sulilaniiK lor the species occmiing in
the southwestern Atlantic.
Dall (1S9()) mentioned \omig and dead spet-imens ol
:\iiifil(l(i limkcnilhi oil liin At- La I'lata (Argentina) and
the Brazilian coast collected 1)\ the .Al.BATIu.iss expedi-
tion at stations 2764 and 27fi2, respeetiveK'. Perhaps in-
fluenced In the latter record, Fernandez (1965) also cit-
ed Aiicilla tdiikrrrillii. a N'enezuelan species and t\pe ol
the genus Aiiuililn II, and .A. .Adams, 1S54, Irom oil Ar-
gentina. Scarahino (1977) eonsiilered this record as Aii-
cilhi (liniitliatd and extended the known range ol this
species to San Mati'as Gulf, Ri'f) Negro Pro\ince, .Argen-
tina (~4rS). Previously. Strebel (1908), based on ma-
terial III the Swedish Siidpolar I'Apedition. illustrated
what lie identified as .A, rliinidiiiln troni the southern
coast of the Brazilian stati- ol Rio twanek' do Sul. Marcus
and Marcus (1968) studied the anatomy of specimens
supposedK' of Anrilhi dhnhhata hut based tlu' name on
specimens identified b\ Klappenbach trom tlii' littoral of
Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil (Uhatuba and .\ugra dos
Rcis). The specimens studied b\' Marcus and NLucus are
herein assumed to belong to the new species.
In his original description ol' Aiiiillaha diiniiliatd. C
B. Sowerb\- II (1859). ga\e Red Sea as the t\pe localitx'.
Later, E. A. Snuth (1915: 96) challenged that' loealit)- and
mentioned th<it C;. B. Sowcrln Ill's record (1892) of A.
dimidiidii fiom South Alrica was probabK' incorrect.
This latter opinion was confirmed In Kilburn ( 1981: 408)
who s\nionymized .A. dimidiata ((',. B. Sowerin III. 1892:
lion C. B. Sowerbx II, 1859) with Aiuilhi iiuiniitinilti

as I know, till' geographical distribution ol A diiniiliiild
does not include waters off Argentina. Due to the large
and pooiK explored Brazilian shelf, its presence or ab-
sence olt this countn' could not be \erihecl. Kilburn
(pei"S. comm.) considered the l^ed .Sea as an erroneous
loeaht\. The real range of A (liiiiitliiiln remains uncer-
tain
\osknil (UJiJi) reilesci'ibed ,ind illuslraled the recent
species of the genus Eburua Lamarck, 1801, including:
two species from the southern Caribbean, K. 'jjditnild
(L., 1758) (tvpe .species of Elmnui) and E. hullialu
(Swainson. 1825) and one from off northern Brazil, E.
liciuirilii (Bernarih, 1859). In addition, Kilburn tliscnssed
the diagnostic characters of the genus Auuilila. He point-
ed out the definition of Anmlda of some i-eccnt authors
better fits some species of Ban/spini than A luiikcn illii,
t\pe species itf Ainald/i. .\ccording to N'osknil ( 1991 I the
diagnosis ol Aiiudda followed In (,'haNan ( 19(i5! and Kil-
burn (1977) was based on species ol Ban/sjiini latliei'
than on A Innkm illii. \bsknil finalK concluded that
Amaldd siiould lie considered as a subgenus o{ Ehuniii.
I agret' that the Aiiuilda spi'cies describi'tl b\ Kilburn
autl Bouchet (1988j and Kilburn (1993) present several
distiuel charactcis that are somewhat far remo\ed from
those in .\ liiiduii illii i'erhaps luture research will
show thai Amaldd desenes Inrliii r taxonomic cfi\ision.
The morpliolog\ ol the umbilicus of the species in-
cluded in Ehiiniii are in fact a conclusi\e character that
should wairant lull generic status. However. Ainuldd
(t\pe species Amaldd Idnkcirillii^ should also be consitl-
ered as a lull-fledged geuirs with two species in the
southwestern Atlantic.
.According to the liter.itnre. most ol (he species of .'\n-
cillai'iinae occur outside llie New World. .South .Mrica,
the .Arabian Peninsula, New C^aletlonia, and Indonesia
appear to be the nngions with the largest number of spe-
cies. Amaldd ii>M-rdrlo\i new species is the onlv species
of the subfamii\ Iniiii; in .\rgentina. In addition, despite
the good de\cl(pinenl ol Tertiarv deposits in Patagonia,
there is no record ol lossil representati\es of this genus.
Therefore, Amalda jn'^ccaiiosi new species, the south-
ernmost living species of the subfamiK. is probably de-
rived from the (>aribbean stock in wliiclr area the tvpe
species of the genus presentlv occur.

ignation on the top line ol page 178 wliere it looks
more like a inmiiiig liead rather than tlu' hrst line of

The ijuestion next to <letei"niiiie is to which author
sliould the species nami' be attributed. Sehumaclier is
tlie oinious choice as author ol the species name rlii-
iiiiisc because it was he who correctK latinized ant! citeil
tlie "linhvUu cliiiicnsis" ol |tlie non-binominal] Ciliem-
nitz (17SS) as first among his leferenees. Indeed, both
Pil.sbn- (ISOfil and Sherborn (1930) attributed the spe-
cies name in the binomen Vinhriiiiilutn cliiiiciisc to
Schmnaeher (1S17). Harris (1S97) went a little further,
allocating authoiship of the species name to "Schumach-
er (ex .Martini!', that is (dienmitz (1788). Howexer. to
quote N'aldes {2001: page 30), " 'Uitil)clla Cliiiiiii\i\' of

.A. .Adams (1854i. Dantzeuberg and Bonge (1933) seem

gronji bv Niinichev and Starobogaten- (1978) and bv Ha-
matani (2000i with the names Umbraciilida and Umbra-

ject to the Principles of Co-ordination " (ICZN 1999,
Article .36.1); though lirst assigned this rank bv Morton
( 19.58), its authorship is attributed to Dall ( 1889), Abbott
(1974), with an eve to prioritv of the included families,
.ilteretl the snperlamilv name to Tvlodinacea. Naught
(1980) lollowed suit, but iuilicated Umbracniacea a,s an
iilteniative. More recentiv, this name, now emended
with the snllix -oidea, to fvlodinoidcii, has been utilized

trated animals are tlrawn for those natixe to the Miildle

in a short description, followed li\ .i sunnnan nl the

also includes lioxes, expandinL!; on topics of special in-
terest. e,g,. txpes of ij;astropod raduku'. gastropod egg
masses, pearl loiniation. hixaKe hinge txpes. groxxth and

Dr Soliman xxoiked on these tx\o volumes at the
.Academx' of Natural Sciences ol Philadelphia part ol
each xear since 19S4, During his xcarix xisits, he xxorki-d
completing his research and w litiu',:; the text of these txxo
xdlumes as xxell as drafting the- numerous (>xcellent il-
lustrations. It was nix- great pk'asure and inspiration to
w.itcli as (he iiiiiiieKiiis figures took shape, to see the
te.xt filled out and the two xolumes come together I had
the pleasure of reading drafts of most of the chapters. I
am pleased to see the finished xolnme. Tills xxork is not
just xour axerage unixersitx lexel inxertehrate zoologx'
textbook, Soliman's xolnme represents a summation of
his life xxork He is a malaeologist bx' training, as xx'ell as
an accomplished artist. This can be seen in the expanded
treatment of the .Mollusea in this seeond xolume. The
attention to ck'tail and anatomx clearlx' shows his loxe of
this group. He has chosen as the representatixe for the
i^ixalxia. Spathopsis nibcits (Unionoida: Iridinidae), to
be discussed in detail. This is the most comprehensixe
published treatment of the anatomx ot a species of the
lamilx' Iridinidae ol .Africa, He similarlx' uses .S'c/)/V/ .sy/-
r/g/it// as the representatixe of the Cephalopoda to illus-
trate the iiiialomx and reproduction ol this class ol .Mol-
lusea.
This textbook xxill be a great aid to the teaching of
inxertehrate zoologx' and also xxill also sene as a major
resource x'olnme. I espeeiallx like, in addition to the
oxe-niexx ol the classification ,iiid detailed anatomx', the
sumnian section in numbered bullet format and the list-
ing of kex terms, Tlii'se sections ari' important for anx'
student of inxertehrates, Tiie section on phxlogenx pulls
together the latest moiphological and genetic data on
the relationships xxithin and iietxxcen phxla, I xxould r<'c-
omniend that this xolnrne along xxith its companion xol-
nme should be on the bookshelxes of all inxertehrate

ol the geiiiis Bdlhi/niiididhis, from all of which, how (ner,
it differs b\ tiie absi'iice ol a well-developed \al\nlar
siphonal membrane at the posterior end, and the ab-
sence of a conlinnation ol the inner mantle lold acioss
the anterior adductor Irom one \al\e to the other. More-
over, unlike Bddii/iiiodichts species, the attachment
point of the anterior retiactor is not situated somewhere
within the umbonal ca\ it\ but well in front of it, on the
nairow anterior part ol the \aKes close to the antero-
dorsal margin. In Bathipiiddiolus, the anterior adductor
and retractor muscles are situated close together at their
attachment point, especialK in species witli terminal uni-
bones, but remain well separated tln'ough ontogenx'
(Figure 10; see al.so Co.sel et al.. 1999: figs. 12. is'. 22.
59, 60. fil ). In (ViiifDilidds iJddius both muscles are in
contact at their insertion point and form a common sear.

Discussion: This speties is somewhat similar to but
has more railial ribs than C. luiwaicnsi.-i Dall, Bartsch
and Rehder, 1938 (p. 120. pi. :53. figures 5-8), which has
only about 11 (Kav, 1979: 553, figure 18()E, 554). It dif-
fers from till' Periivian-( 'hilean Carditdla tcff^data (see
list below I ill being more quadrate and in haxing more
radial ribs: C. tc<ud(it(i has onlv 10-12 ribs. The four
worn valves from Isia de Malpelo are a little more ellip-
tical and elongate than the material from the Islas Ga-
lapagos and might coiiii' to be regarded as another spe-
cies when more mati'iial becomes available.

(Jcoaraphic (listrihntions of nianv species of native forest slus^s
in western Xortli America are poorK known. We report on t\\o
new records oi' I'niplnisriiui iliihiiiiu Cockerell. 1S9(), from the
Hock)- Monntains in northern Idaho. These records represent
a disjunct population Irom the remaimlri ol the species rani;e
in the Cascade Mount.iins and alon^ the I'aeific coast of nortli-
vvesteni North America, and the eastt-rnniost distribution re-
cords for the species. The genitalia ol the dissectetl specimens
Irom Idaho w^ere similar to prcNious illustrations of specimens
Irom Oregon and (California and to dissected specimens from
Oregon and Washington. We beliexc that the gross anatomxol
the genitalia is sufficiently similar to warrant the treatment of

400 111 depth. This is tlie fist report of the ^einis in tlie .-Xthmtie
Oeean. The main ihaj^nostie characters ol the new species are:
shell high, lacking radial scnlptiirt'; snout Hat. somewhat in-
\()l\ed b\' oral lappets; posterior odontophore cartilages con-
nected to anterior one in median line: ^onad connected to pos-
terior end of pallial caxits' li\' a gonoduct runnmg transwrsalK
and dorsalK- in \isceral mass; sperm dnct inostK' closed (tn-

DISCUSSION
The generic allocation of the new species is maiuK' based
on the diagnosis ol tlii' gemis pro\ided b\ Maisluill
(19S5: 522)' and llas/.pnmar (I9SS; tiib, 2. p.' 177'. with
addition ol Inrther data Irom other ;iutliors i (•.«'. Mc-
Lean and IlarasewNch. 1995). Pseiulococrtilinti riiiiiild

tentacle, such as uncoiled sperm duct and absence of
papilla.
4'lie anatoiux' of the lunv species fits the general plan
described lor the famiK' ( llas/.prnuar. 19S7, 1988). .^n-
;itomieal characters defining the lamilv are gonad divid-
ed into testis ;md o\ar\' and right cephalic tentacle as
copiilalor\ oigaii. However, the new species possesses
some peculiarities, as, e.g., the apparent absence of sal-
ivan glands (glands are sometimes poorlv developed in
cocculiuiform limpets), the ventricle Iree from the rec-
tum, the presence of a short ojiened portion in the
speiui duct nnining on palli;il lloor; and the presence ol
a visceral gonodnet. The gonodnet luis been regarded as
a modification of the right kidnev, but. if so, it is onlv
part of the kidnev undenvent modification, since there
is a detectable right kidnc'v. The presence of a ven.- long
right kidnev. in the F. riinnld gonodnet, is lound in the
comparable topologN' of YtKiuinaht/ssia earri/i McLean.

DISCUSSION
The origin ol llie introduction ol MfliniKidis Uilnrcu-
Itiliis to Brazil reniams unknown, but i( is probabK
liTiked to tlie plant and bx'sliwatcr ornamental fish trade.
This route ol introduction and sjireading ol Iresliwater
.snails had been prexiouslv reported i.e. ( 'owie (2t)()2).
Madsen and Frand.sen (1989) and Pointier (1999). The
first record ol .\/. hihcrcnlatus in the state ol Sao Paulo
was in aijuarium iioblnist stores in the cit\ ol Santos
(Vaz et al.. 198fi), Thieiigo et al. (199S) re|iorted its in-
trodnction b\ local lisli larmcrs and rajiid eoloni/alion
in fish tanks in (iuapimirim, Rio de |aneir(), piobabK in
the 197()s. hi the states ol Minas Cerais. Hio de |aneiro
and Sao i'aulo. where more e\tcnsi\e sur\e\s ha\(' been
tlone, this sjieeies has bi'cn collected bom ahnost all
li\'drogra])hic basms. inhal)iting lotic. leiilic. polluted or
clean water environments, nHcn in dense populations.
Mcltiuoidcs iHln'radillus has since sjiicad Irorn le\\
points in Sao Paulo to all Bra/ilian regions m the coinse
ol three decades.
The biological .iiid paithenogenci ic repinduetivc
cliaracteristics ol ,\/ luhcnidatus make this species a
good invader i Pointier and Delav. 199.")'. Its adapt
abilitv to a wide range ol cmiv iroiunenlal eouditions
and high reproductive capacitv has encouraged its use.

Moqihological and conchological studies on samples
ol .\/ tuhnviildliis from Brazil are being periormed in
order to detect the occurrence ol distinct moq)lis as ob-
served in the Caribbean islands. ( !oTichological charac-
teristics and sp;ilial disliibution provide evidence that
moqihs ot .\/, Itdicrciddtus exist iu .Mai'tiuiijue and that

cause no material olhei ihan the holot\pe is known, and
the genus Siilcohiicriniini d'Orbignv, 1850, is known
from the Cainpanian onwartl (Wrmeij, 1998), the age ol

regarded this species as ol earlv Eocene age. Gastrkliiim

ABSTRACT
ICaieher's Ctird Ciiliilni^iic of Waild-W iili' Shells is a series ot
cards illustratiiii; gastropotl niolhisks, with one species lieiiis:;
shown on each card. More than 6,300 cards illustrating about
.5S6() species were issued in 60 "packs" between 197.3 and
1992. These cards are especialK important as inan\ show t\pe
specimens, .\11 packs and the range of the cards inchided in
each are collated, as are changes and corrections to the cards
made li\ Kaichi'r, other authors, and herein. Tin' status ol miss-
ing card numbers is clarifii'd: some were accidentalK skipped,
others were removed In Kaicher before publication.
Nine species were inad\ertentl\ named in the Ciinl Ciitii-
/(igi/f; all ha\e short descriptions and theretore are not uudi'
names, T\pc material for eight of these is detailed, with des-
ignation ol six lect<)t\pes, CaUioslotiui viiifi-ntiif Kaicher. 19.S6,

INTHODUCTION
Sallv Diana Kaicher (1922-19991 was a professional il-
lustratcu' and writer who worked at xarious times at the
,\(.'a(leiii\ of Natural Sciences in Phihiilelphia t.ANSP).
file National Museum ol Natural Histon' at the Smitli-
souiaii Institution (USNM), and the United States De-
paiiment of .Agriculture. She authored or illustrated se\"-
eral popular work.s tin natural histor\\ including Kaielier
(1956-1957), Reid (1967). Epple (1969) and Reid et al.
(2001). which is a revision of Reid (1967). She authored
two scientific papers: Kaicher (1972) and Lvons and
Kaicher (197S). She also illustrated and in some cases
authored alioiit twentv 35 mm filmstrips for classroom
instniction. iiichnling one on mollusks (Kaicher, 1968).
Geruion and Iaous (1999) published a biographical
sketch giving details of her career as well as photo-
grajihs. Petiich (1980) published biographical notes and
Laiiiprell (1999) and Rice (1999) published obituaries.
In 1973 Kaicher l.iegan publishing the Card Catalogue
ofWdrhl-WicIc Shells. Thi' Card Cataloffic is a series of
3" X 5" (7,6 X 12,7 cm) gloss\- cards, each card illus-
trating a single species of gastropod mollusk with one or
more black and white photographs, The\' were issued in
"packs" of 97 to 106 cards, most packs being restricted
to species oi a single lamilv. In addition to the species
cards, each pack had a cover card and one or two intro-
dneton and acknowledgment cards. Production of the
packs was irregular but continued until 1992. A total of
60 packs and 6437 cards were issued, including 6,316
cards illustrating specimens, 60 cover cards, 60 acknowl-
edgment cards, ami one card, in Pack 31, discussing o\o-
viviparitv in 'Sassiirius. .All ol the species illustrated are
prosobranchs, and almost all are marine, e.xceptions be-
ing freshwater or brackish species of Nriitiiui (Neriti-
dae), Cica (Buceinidae), and Riionian^iiiclla (Marginel-
lidae). Callomon (1999a) published on the Internet a list
of the species illustrated in each part of the Card Cat-
aloiHic and an inilex to the specific names (1999b).
,\boiit 5860 distinct species are illustrated, the total
l)eiug k'ss tiiau the number of carils because some sui)-
species and varieties vvcie illustrated, and because
Kaicher reissued cards for some species or corrected
their identifications. Kaicher issued replacement cards at
different times for a varietv of ri'asons. .A small slip en-
closetl with Pack 16 announced that "some of these
cards are unacceptablv dark" and that those cards "will
be reprinted and sent to vou , , , without charge, ,\t

As often happens when t\|)e material is illustrated oi'
discussed, some lectot\pe designations were inadx'cr-
tentl\- made in the Card C.dtdlaijiw. In part because ot
this, Kabat (1996) petitioned die Inlenialional (.'ommis-
sion on Zoological Nomenclatmr to suppress the Cdnl
Cdtalo'^nc for nomenclatnial |)urposes. Comments on
the petition b\' various workers were published in Bul-
letin of Zoological XoiiifHclaliirc .5.'3: 27.3-277 and 54:
.39-6(1 with the result that in ( )|)inion 1905 ll99S), the
(Commission ruled that ihe Card Calaloiinc is nomen-
claturalK availabli'. We note that the loinlh edition ol
the International Code of '/j>olo<iieal Soinenclalure cla-
rifies that lectotspe designations made b\ inlereuce ol a
holot\pe have standing ouK il "the original description
neither implies nor re(|nires that there were sMit\|)es"
(.\rticle 74.61. Thus in some cases in which Kaicher had
bc'cn llionghl lo h,i\e ina(K eiieiili\ designaled a lecto-
t\pe, it will be lonnd she did not in lael do so.
Because the Card Cahiloiuic is ,i\.iilalile loi inimen-
clatnral purposes, it is impoiiant to have a collation, so
that titations ol nomeiielatnral actions therein can be
made accuralek. in cover notes lli.il aeei impanieil the

Nine mannscript names attribntt'd to various authors ap-
pear to have been inadvertentlv validated in the Curd
('alalo^uc. In each case, Kaicher seems to have taken
the name from a label in a collection, antl in each case
she provided a short description. The International (Code
of Zoological Nomenclature dCZN. 1999) does not pre-
sciibe anv minimum length for a descrijition. so these
are not nude names as has been maintained bv some
authors, e.g., Holan and RiJckel (2()()()i. Holan and Ry;ill
i20()()i. .\lso. Kaicher used the Card C'alalo'^ne to illus-
trate species that she considered to be valid, thereby
lulfilling the requirement of KJZN .\iticle 11.5, that a
uauH' be used as valid when proposed. In the context of
the Card CataUn^ue, Kaicher provided comparative il-
lustratioirs ol manv congeneric or coufamilial species for
each of the validated names, .•\lthougli Kaicher was un-
awaic that she was the first to validiv introduce these
uami's into the literature. ICZN .Artiiie 16.1 does not
re(juii'e that names published before 2000 be explititlv
indicated as new. We therefore attribute authorship ol
these names to Kaicher We havi' located tvpe material
for light of the nine names: six at the United .States

ll.iiK. N'erberckt (19951 s;ud "About t\ventv-fi\e vears as;o,
the name Ndticd variolaria Recluz, 1844 was introduced
as the valid name for this species." Correspondence with
\'erberckt (througii A. N'eriiecken, in e-mail to REP, .30
Januarv 2000), failed to reveal a reference of this \intage.
The onlv such use we have foinid is bv Santos Calindo
(1977), where Niiticii variolaria is a untie name. Since the
name was not used as \alid before 1961. it cannot be at-
triiiuted to Recluz, where it first appeareil in sNuonNiii)'
(1C;ZN Article 11.6). Kiiicher (19S1) apparently was' the
first to use the name as valid and provide a description,
and therefore mvist be attributed with the authorship.
The type lot, cited by Kaicher, is USNM 90579 and is
labeled as "Natica pellis-tigrina Chem. W. Africa. Wesley-
an Univ." and which contains a single specimen. The name
"Natica variolaria" does not appear on the label; Kaicher
mav have inferred the name from the position in the
USNM collection, where the species is currentiv filed as
Notocorhlis variolaria, attriliuted to Recluz, 1844. K;ucher
max- ha\'e seen a second lot, adjacent in the collection:
I SNM 272979, with USNM label "Natica variolaria Rec.
(iabon, Africa. De\Tolle" and original label with "Natica
\ariolaria Reel. Gabon." handwritten and "Emile De\Tolle
46, nie de Bac. Paris . . . ' hpeset. We cannot pnne that
Kaicher saw this second lot because the naticid collection
at USNM was reorganized b\- Alan Kabat subsequent to
Kaicher's work. To fi.\ the identity- of the name, we here
designate Kiiichers figured specimen, USNM 9t)579, as
die lectotype (height 33.4 nnn); USNM 272979 contains
two possible paralectot\pes (heights 18.6 and 15.6 mm).
It is not clear to us that these two specimens are conspe-
cific with the lectotvpe: their spires are lower and ha\e
stronger axial ribbing below the suture,
Natica variolaria was first published in sviion\'uiv of Natica
[and Recluz, 1844 lex Adanson, 1757, non-binominal),
which is preoccupied bv Cochlis fancl Roding, 1798 if the
latter is classified as a Natica. Femandes and Rolan (1993)
sviionymized Rodings taxon with Natica hehraca MartvTi,
1784, a non-binominal name consen'ed in ICZN Opinion
1662 in 1992. Natica fancl Recluz, 1844 is a sviionvm of
the West African Natica rocciuigni/i Fischer-Piette, 1942
according to Femandes and Rolan (1993), but an earlier
name, based on .Adansou's taxon, is Natica inultipiinct/ita
de Blainville, 1825, as noted b\- X'erberckt (1995) and Ka-
bat, Finet and Way (1997). Natica variolaria Kaicher,
however, is not conspecific with Natica inultipunctata.
liasing a sparser pattern and a broader cord in the um-
bilicus, Alan Kabat (pers. comm. to GR. 21 |iiK 2001)
confirms tliaf he considers this species to be a Notocochlis.
as reflected in the arrangement of the USNM collection.
Aiiuica Icrainachii Kaicher. 1980 (Figure 3, 15-17). .Mtrilmlcd
to Kuroda on Card, 2.358, but he did not pnlilish the
name: it is not listed b\- Hanshin Shell C:lub (1986) or
Higo et al. ( 1999). The name has ap]iearcd in print several
times as a nude name attributed to Kuroda MS (e.g., Azn-
ma 1960, Higo 1973). Weil et al. (1999) treat the species
as \alid. attriliuting the name to Kuroda and llabe. 19.55,
but tlo not pio\ide a bibliographic reference. It is not
listed among llabi'S taxa bv Okamoto (2001). Specimens
ha\e been distributed under this manuscript name for at
least 50 years: ANSP 189370, identified as A. Icrainachii
on the original label was jMirchased from Shigeo Hashi-
moto and catalogued in October 1952. The name musl be
attributed to Kaii'her, the first author to provide a descrip-
tion and ilhistratioii.
The t\pc lot, cited In Kauliei, is USNM 607188, with
USNM label "Amaea splendida de Bonn'. Tosa, Shikokn,
Japan. 100 fins. ex. J. H. Webb. fO.33. .'\cc. 200168" and
original label "Amaea splendida Bourv Tosa 100 fins. Ja-
pan"; it contains a single specimen. The name "Amaea
tcrainachii" does not appear on the label; Kiucher ma\
have inferred the name from tlic position in the USNM
collection, where the species is currentK filed under that
name, attributed to Kuroda, 19.52. Kaicher likely saw a
second lot, also v\ith a single specimen, adjacent in the
collection: USNM 605776, witli USNM label "Amaea tcr-
aniachi Kuroda. Tosa, Japan. 150 fins. 1.348" and original
label ".'\iiiaea teramachi Kiir Tosa 150 fins. \ae\ [sir]
rare". To fix the identity of the name, we here designate
Kaicher's figured specimen, USNM 607188, as lectotvpe
(height 43.8 mm); USNM 605776 is a paralectotxpe
(height 33.6 mm).
Kaicher compared Anuun Uiinnuclni to Ainaca ccrca
Masaliito. Kuroda and Habe, I97f , lint that species is cur-
rently placed in Clathroscala whereas A. tcranmchii be-
longs in the subgenus Scalina Conrad, 1865, of which tour
species are currentK' recognized from [apan (Higo et al..
1999). It differs from A. (S.) gazcoides KutoAa and Ilabc
in Habe, 1961, in having a less elongate body whorl; from
A. (S.) mathildona (Mii.s;iliito, Kuroda and Habe, 1971) in
being large, less slender, and haxing more spiral cords per
whorl; and from A. (S. ) splendida Bonn; 1913) in having
finer sculpture. It is most similar to A. (S.) scricoiiazca
(.Masaliito. Kuroda and Habe, 1971), from which Weil et
al. (1999) distinguish it as basing "more numerous spiral
cords of xaniiig strengths'. Their illustrations of these
species (figs. 242 and 362), however, do not support this
difference, nor does examination of eight additional spec-
imens identified as A. tcranuichii (ANSP 189370, 234720,
243251, 243242). We therefore consider A Icraniacliii to
be a syiionvmi of A. scricoiifizca.
Tsnchiila (2000) sviioimnized A. sericogazca with .A.
oi/asi(nicnsis Ozaki. 1958. which was named as a Pliocene
fossil. Examination of Ozaki's illustration ol the holotvpe
shows that it li;is ;i channeled suture defined bv a strong
.spiral cord with the other cords nniformly weaker. In .\.
sericogazca. the whoris are of uniform streii2;tli near the
suture, but stronger below the peiiplien. particnlarK on
the spire, which gixes the earls whorls an ;mgnlar profile.
Anuica oi/a.'iiiniciisis also tapers iiiori' rapidk than does .A.
sericogazdc the width of the anterior wliorl of the holo-
tvpe is about .i.S mm; the comparable measurenu'iit in <A.

tiie name does not appear in an\' ol jiis papers on .Austra-
lian marine or fossil niollusks in the bibliograpliN b\ Blake
(1902).
The t\pe lot. cited In Kaicher, is ll.SN-\I .30449.5; the
U.SX.VI label sa\s ' I'uipura ventiicosa Tate. G. of .Spenser,
South .Australia, iiednall"; the original label sa\s "Puqjura
vcntricosa. Tate C. of Spencer. Aus". The lot contains a
single .specimen, height .3.3.6 nnn, which is the holotxpe.
The operculum is part of the lot (Figure 24-25).
The specimen is Dwatliais orhita (Gmelin, 1791), a com-
mon and highl\- variable species in southern Australia.
This identification was suggested bv Dr. Winston F. Pon-
der, who e.xamined the holot\pe on Ki .August 2000.

to Preston on Card 2752, but Preston did not publish such
a name: it is not listed 1)\- Adam (1971) or Bratcher and
C;ernolior.sk\' (19S7).
The !iolot\pe is in the t\pe collection at H\l\l I. catalogue
number 191 l.S.22.27.3 (cited b\ Kaicher): the t\pc loc:ilit\'
is Martini(jue.
We consider this name to be a junior subj(cli\c s\no-
nym of Terchra iilh/i Grav, l'S.34. (Irav's name was recog-
nized as vahd bv Bratcher and (^ernoliorskv ( 1987); K;iicli-
er appears to be the first modern author to ha\c recog-
nized the taxon as a good species, although she did not
discoxcr the oldest name for it.

They, Kolan and Rockel (2000) and Filmer (2001) consid-
ered it a nude name introduced In Kaicher, but K:iicher
does provide a brief description.
Kaicher did not cite an institution or c;italoguc number,
however, wc found the figured specimen in HSNM
806311. The L'SNM label sa\s "Gonus te\esi Tro\ao,

cated that commissioners favor amending .Article 58 (un-

Trcnao to be preoccupied b\ C. musivum S<merb\-, 1833,
G. (ilcxandrinus Kaicher, 1977 to be the valid name for
the species, and C. tevesi Tro\ao. 1978 to be a junior ob-
jective svnonviii.
Edward J. Petuch (pers. connii. to (JR. 26 Januarx

following species were in his personal collection when
Kaicher photographed them. Later he donated his collec-
tion of Gonidae to USNM.

dealers name; it is listed bv Hice (1977).
Kaicher did not cite an institution or cat;iloguc number.
howe\er, we found the figured specimen in USNM

the figured specimen, height 38,1 mm, ;ls the lectotxpe

Kaieher omitted them and inferred generic names in

gave them, which she sometimes did for recentlv
named species,
3) For generic changes we state the combination if the

changed, even il Kaieher omitted this information;

Brooding females ol (.', tipli/sioidcs measured 9.4-18.2 nun

The egg capsules had a triangular shape, with one corner ex-

substrate. The capsule walls were thin and transparent. Egg
capsules measured ().. 5-2.1 rum length (without the stalk). 0.7-
