THE FAMILY CORBULIDAE (MOLLUSCA: BIVALVIA) LAURIE C. ANDERSON Department of Geology and Geophysics, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, 70803 ABSTRACT Corbulid bivalves (Myacea: Corbulidae) are an important constituent of fossiliferous Neogene sediments of the Cibao Valley, northern Dominican Republic. Six corbulid species referred to five subgenera within the genus Corbula are described and figured (Bothrocorbula, Caryocorbula, Juliacorbula, Panamicorbula, and Varicorbula). One species is new, Corbula (Panamicorbula) сапае. This 15 the first description of a fossil Panamicorbula species and the first description of a Panamicorbula species outside of the eastern Pacific. The distribution of Dominican corbulids is strongly influenced by paleoenvironmental conditions such as salinity, depth, and bioclastic fabric. Corbulids are most common in Miocene sediments that were deposited predominantly in shallow-marine waters. Corbula (Caryocorbula) sericea Dall, 1898 has the widest stratigraphic and geographic distribution within the study area and is especially abundant in brackish-water and very shallow-marine deposits. Corbula (Bothrocorbula) viminea Guppy, 1866b is also common in shallow-marine and brackish-water deposits. Corbula (Varicorbula) sanctidominici Maury, 1925 occurs predominantly in shallow-marine sediments, whereas Corbula (Panamicorbula) canae n. sp. is restricted to brackish- water deposits of the Upper Miocene Cercado Formation in the Río Cana section. Corbula (Caryocorbula) dominicensis Gabb, 1873b and Corbula (Juliacorbula) Jossilis Pilsbry, 1922 are rare. Corbula dominicensis is apparently restricted to the upper Lower to lower Middle Miocene Baitoa Formation of the Río Yaque del Norte section, and C. fossilis is found in Upper Miocene sediments of the Cercado and Gurabo Formations. Dominican corbulid species show close morphologic affinities to species of the Pliocene Bowden Formation of Jamaica, Neogene units of the Caribbean coast of Central America such as the Gatun Formation and sediments of the Limón Basin, Miocene and Pliocene deposits of Trinidad, and Miocene to Pleistocene sediments of Florida. RESUMEN Los bivalvos corbúlidos (Myacea: Corbulidae) constituyen una parte importante de los sedimentos fosilíferos del Neógeno en el Valle de Cibao al norte de la República Dominicana. A continuación, se describe y se dibuja seis especies pertenecientes a cinco subgéneros dentro del género Corbula, es decir, Bothrocorbula, Caryocorbula, Juliacorbula, Panamicorbula, y Varicorbula. Corbula (Panamicorbula) canae forma una nueva especie. Por primera vez se describe la especie fósil Panamicorbula y es la primera vez que se describe la especie Panamicorbula fuera del Pacífico este. La distribución de corbúlidos dominicanos está influenciada fuertemente por condiciones paleoambientales tales como la salinidad, profundidad de agua y fábrica bioclástica. Los corbúlidos se encuentran más comúnmente en aquellos sedimentos del Mioceno depositados predominantemente en aguas Marinas someras. Dentro del la zona de estudio, Corbula (Caryocorbula) sericea Dall, 1898 muestra tener la distribución estra- tigráfica y geográfica más amplia y abunda sobre todo en agua salobre y en depósitos marinos de agua muy someras. Corbula (Bothrocorbula) viminea Guppy, 1866b también se encuentra comúnmente en depósitos marinos de agua somera y en depósitos de agua salobre. Corbula (Varicorbula) sanctidominici Maury, 1925 aparece en sedimentos marinos de poca profundidad mientras que Corbula (Panamicorbula) canae, п. sp. se encuentra restringida a depósitos de agua salobre en la formación Cercado del Mioceno superior en la sección del Río Cana. Corbula (Caryocorbula) dominicensis Gabb, 1873b y Corbula (Juliacorbula) Jossilis Pilsbry, 1922 son poco frecuentes. Aparetmente, C. dominicensis queda restringida entre la parte superior del Mioceno inferior y la parte inferior del Mioceno intermedio de la formacio Baitoa en la secciön del Rio Yaque del Norte. Corbula fossilis se encuentra en los sedimentos de las formaciones Cercado y Gurabo con edad del Mioceno superior. Las especies de corbúlidos dominicanos muestran una afinidad morfológica a las especies de la formación Bowden del Plioceno en Jamaica, a las unidades Neögenas de la costa caribeña de centroamérica tales como la formación Gatun y los sedimentos de la cuenca Limón, a los depósitos de edad Miocena y Pliocena en Trinidad y a los sedimentos de Florida que comprenden desde el Mioceno hasta el Pleistoceno.

BULLETIN 351 BIOSTRATIGRAPHY AND PALEOECOLOGY Within the study area (Text-fig. 1), it is possible to trace changes in corbulid species distributions and in- traspecific variability in a number of stratigraphic sec- tions that record the interplay of paleoenvironment, time, and geography. Anderson (1994) documents in detail the relationship of corbulid species distributions and intraspecific variability to paleoenvironmental conditions in these sediments and those findings аге reviewed here. Distributions of the most common spe- cies, Corbula (Caryocorbula) sericea, Corbula (Both- rocorbula) viminea, Corbula (Varicorbula) sanctidom- inici, апа Corbula (Panamicorbula) canae, track ра- leoenvironmental conditions, and represent migrations into and out of the study area over time rather than speciation and extinction events (Anderson, 1994). Corbulid abundance and diversity reflect a ргеѓегепсе for marginal-marine and shallow to intermediate ma- rine habitats (< 100 m), which is compatible with hab- itat distributions of living corbulids. This correspon- dence of species distributions to paleoenvironmental conditions causes a temporal pattern in species distri- butions because paleoenvironmental conditions changed systematically through time in the study are (Saunders et al., 1986). In the study area, corbulids аге most abundant and diverse in Miocene marine sedi- ments deposited primarily in shallow (approximately GUAYUBIN Haiti Dominican Republic Text-figure 1.—Index map of areas investigated in the Cibao Valley, Dominican Republic (after Saunders et al., 1986). €—À { 1 Rio Cana [_ JUpper Cenozoic 2 Rio Gurabo Oligocene-Early Miocene? 3 Rio Mao 4 Rio Amina 5 Cañada Zalaya 6 Rio Yaque del Norte 7 City of Santiago 8 Arroyo Puñal 9 Rio Verde CORBULID BIVALVES: ANDERSON ~ Е : | | E Río Cana Section E $ | о Coral Communities ш =; : Grass flats 8 8 | ІШІ ar Bh e ; E н ige more | (>10 - 20 n» E B ВЕН г с ^ : 8 EZ Уез shallow marine 5 Y 57 (<30 т) Е p E 5 рд Marine (approximately © Fy Е | А 30 to < 100 m) | M MER ME ТІ | E 5 2:: o | : 3 Y Y а ау Вазе 2.—Part of the Río Cana section showing the stratigraphic distributions of Corbula species.

Intraspecific variability in the two most abundant Corbulid species, C. sericea and C. viminea, are also Telated to paleoenvironmental factors. Corbula sericea Shows continuous morphologic variability along a pa- leoenvironmental gradient of salinity, depth, and bio- Clastic fabric (Text-fig. 4). The smallest and least elon- 8ate С. sericea valves are found in intermediate and deeper marine deposits. Intermediate morphologies oc- “ur in shallow-marine deposits, and larger (but not More elongate) valves generally occur in brackish-wa- ter deposits. A few valves categorized as “brackish- Water" from the López section of the Río Yaque del Orte, however, do not fit this trend (triangles with Negative values on the first principle component axis ІРСІ < 0] in Text-fig. 4). This anomaly is caused by difficulties in assigning these sediments to an environ- Mental category because of conflicting environmental Nterpretations based on different faunal components. ven though the ostracode and foraminiferal faunas of е López section indicate deposition in brackish wa- 37 4 С. зепсеа B | Right Valves S Shallow Marine se 3 u % а Н.

Size and shape dif- ferences are related to differences in bioclastic fabric. This plot shows a subset of data illustrated in Text-figure 4. See Appendix 2 for samples used for each category. (After Anderson, 1994.) ters (Saunders et al., 1986; Bold, 1988), these sedi- ments also are rich in irregular echinoids and massive reef corals (Saunders et al., 1986) indicating a signif- icant marine influence. Alternatively, the other brack- ish-water valves are from sediments with an unambig- uous brackish-water signal. These sediments of the Río Cana section are rich in brackish-water mollusks, in- cluding beds of Anadara patricia (Sowerby, 1850) (— “Arca” beds of Saunders et al., 1986). This species is closely related to or is a subspecies of Anadara gran- dis (Broderip and Sowerby, 1829), a Recent species inhabiting intertidal mud banks bordering mangrove swamps in the eastern Pacific (Maury, 1922; Olsson, 1932, 1961; Woodring, 1973; Saunders et al., 1986). Geographic variation related to bioclastic fabric also can be discerned within C. sericea from roughly con- temporaneous Miocene sediments of the Río Cana and Río Mao sections (Text-fig. 5; Anderson, 1994). Cor- bula sericea is larger and more elongate in the Río Cana section, where it occurs mainly in silts with bio- clasts concentrated in lenses. In the Río Mao section, C. sericea is smaller and less elongate, and occurs in lenticular beds rich in bioclasts with a silty matrix. Variation in C. viminea shows a morphologic cline from west to east in contemporaneous sediments, with variability related to sediment type and bioclastic fab- ric (Text-fig. 6; Table 1; Anderson, 1994). Corbula vi- minea is relatively small in the west (Río Cana section, where it occurs in pebbly shell beds), whereas to the BULLETIN 351 C. viminea Bg 544] 8 5 Мао Gurabo в 9 | oz i E Yaque 5 Cana | а à | | N 04 8 Ф | о B = о © Ф а А E a а. - 4 Т Т T 1 Section que а. © с Ф о | в o Р 8 0 Ф ы 0- 8 i Ф Lo] 3 n |-- G Ф IN. 27 B [7] = А n 5 o с -4 Т Т Т 1 1 2 3 4 Sediment Type Text-figure 6.—Plot of PC1 versus stratigraphic section (upper) and PC1 versus sediment type (lower) for Corbula viminea. Procedures and results of PCA are outlined in Anderson (1994). PC1 (explaining about 46 % of the variance) represents size and size-correlated shape variability. Sediment types are: 1 = silts with bioclasts concentrated into lenticular beds or lenses, 2 = silts with bioclasts concentrated into burrows, 3 = silts with bioclasts scattered, and 4 = silty sands with bioclasts either scattered or concentrated. Two valves from the Río Yaque del Norte section are not included in the lower plot due to a lack of information on sediment type. Note clinal variation from west to east (Río Cana to Río Mao section). Geographic variation is apparently related to differences in sediment type among sections (see Table 1). 5” Appendix 2 for samples used for each category. (After Anderson, 1994.) east (Río Gurabo and Río Mao sections, where it oc- curs in lenticular-, burrow-, or lens-shaped shell con- centrations within silts) it becomes progressively larger. Valves from the Río Yaque del Norte section are from older deposits of the Baitoa Formation and do not follow this trend. Morphological differences among the four sediment-type/bioclastic-fabric cate- gories are significant using the nonparametric Krus- kal-Wallis analysis of variance (H=103, df=3, p < 0.005). In summary, both abundance of particular corbulid species within their stratigraphic ranges and total rang” es within stratigraphic sections are controlled by P? leoenvironmental factors. In addition, intraspecill morphologic variability in C. sericea and C. vimine? corresponds strongly with specific paleoenvironment@ conditions. Although aspects of intraspecific variabl” ity in both species are related to bioclastic fabric, n phonomic processes do not control the morpholog!¢ variability observed (Anderson, 1994).

BIOGEOGRAPHY In tropical America (including the Caribbean Sea, eastern Pacific Ocean, and western Atlantic Ocean), Miocene to Recent corbulid faunas are nearly identical at the subgenus level, except for a few apparently en- demic, low-diversity taxa. Widespread and abundant Subgenera include Varicorbula Grant and Gale, 1931 (Notocorbula Iredale, 1930 of some authors) and Car- Jocorbula Gardner, 1926, and to a lesser extent Both- "ocorbula Gabb, 1873a and Juliacorbula Olsson and arbison, 1953. Endemic subgenera typically inhabit Ше Recent Panamic-Pacific province and include Ser- 'acorbula Olsson, 1961 and Tenuicorbula Olsson, 1932 (also found in the Tertiary of Peru, Venezuela, and Trinidad). Panamicorbula Pilsbry, 1932 was first described from the Recent Panamic-Pacific province, but also is reported from the Miocene of the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica (Punta Judas; Seyfried er al., 1985), the Miocene Cercado Formation of the Domin- ‘can Republic (Anderson, 1991, 1994), and the Plio- cene l'Enfer and Springvale Formations of Trinidad (see p. 19). Dominican corbulid species show affinities to a Number of other Miocene to Pleistocene faunas. The [селе Bowden Formation of Jamaica shares two е with the Dominican fauna, Corbula viminea E C. sericea, and contains a species of Varicorbula, 1% bula (Varicorbula) heterogena Guppy (іп Dall, tid 8), that is morphologically very similar to C. sanc- a Өтіпісі. Corbula viminea and С. sericea also аге Ed from Neogene deposits of the Limón Basin, 9sta Rica (Dall, 1898; Olsson, 1922). In addition, the proving units all contain a number of corbulid spe- es with strong affinities to Dominican corbulids: Miocene and Pliocene sediments of Trinidad (includ- ing the Manzanilla, Springvale, l'Enfer Formations; Maury, 1925; Jung, 1969), the Miocene Gatun For- mation of Panama (Woodring, 1982), Upper Miocene Santa Rosa beds of Veracruz, Mexico (Perrilliat [1984], who assigns these beds to the Agueguexquite Formation; E. Vokes [1989] states, however, that this formation only occurs farther north, near Coatzacoal- cos, and is Pliocene), and Miocene to Pleistocene sed- iments of Florida (Dall, 1898; Gardner, 1928; Olsson and Harbison, 1953).

SYSTEMATIC PALEONTOLOGY INTRODUCTION All species described here are assigned to the genus Corbula; other supraspecific taxa are considered sub- genera, following Vaught (1989). All subgenera share the same basic hinge structure and differ primarily in shape, ornamentation, and the degree of disparity in size, shape, and ornamentation of the left and right valves. A majority of species described here are abun- dant enough to incorporate intraspecific variation into interpretations of species boundaries (see also Ander- son, 1991, 1994 for quantitative treatments). Variabil- ity is considered intraspecific if it can be related to size differences (presumably ontogenetic) and/or to changes in paleoenvironmental conditions. In compar- ison to this approach, the taxonomy of living corbulids has been more typological because taxonomic and sys- tematic studies have not incorporated potential phe- notypic variation caused by ontogenetic, environmen- tal, or geographic factors. Only forms considered identical to described species are listed in the synonymy. A question mark (?) before an item in a synonymy indicates that material was in- sufficient to confirm conspecific status. The abbrevia- tion “sp.” indicates that the described species could be identified to the subgenus but not to the specific level. Diagnoses are used both for species and for su- praspecific categories and indicate the diagnostic fea- tures of a particular taxon. Descriptions are used for species only, and outline overall species morphology. The Remarks section provides information on the par- ticular taxon described, and may include a taxonomic discussion, taphonomic and paleoenvironmental infor- mation, and geologic and geographic ranges (ranges for supraspecific taxa only). The Comparisons section outlines differences between the species being de- scribed and morphologically similar species. Detailed locality information for Dominican Republic samples is listed in the Occurrence section, whereas the Dis- tribution section is a more general statement of a spe- cies’ geographic and stratigraphic distribution inside and outside the Dominican Republic. A question mark (?) after a formation indicates that synonymy is un- certain. SYSTEMATICS Family CORBULIDAE Lamarck, 1818 Diagnosis.—Small- to moderate-sized sturdy shells (length typically 2 cm or less), inequilateral, and gen- erally strongly inflated. Slightly to strongly inequival- ved in size and shape; left valves smaller than right valves. Hinge simple with anterior cardinal tooth in right valve and socket in left valve. Resilifer present behind hinge; typically a projecting chondrophore in left valve that corresponds to socket-like resilifer in right valve. Pallial sinus small to obsolete. (See H. Vokes, 1945; Moore, 1969.) Subfamily CORBULINAE Lamarck, 1818 Diagnosis.—Left valve typically slightly smaller than right valve. Chondrophore in left valve present in most species, fitting into socket-like resilifer in right valve. Posterior typically rostrate. (See H. Vokes, 1945; Moore, 1969.) Genus CORBULA Bruguiére, 1797 Corbula Bruguière, 1797, pl. 230. Corbula Lamarck, 1799, p. 89. Aloidis Megerle von Mühlfeldt, 1811, р; 07. Type species. —Corbula sulcata Lamarck, 1801; by subsequent designation, Schmidt ( 1818); Recent, Sen- egal. Diagnosis.—Shell sturdy, moderately inflated, ine- BULLETIN 351 quilateral and inequivalved; left valve smaller. Shells smooth to concentrically ribbed. Hinge with cardinal tooth in right valve and cardinal socket in left valve. In type species, socket-like resilifer present behind dentition in both valves; in most species, however, left valve with chondrophore and right valve with socket- like resilifer. (See H. Vokes, 1945.) Remarks.—The generic name Corbula was first used in Вгиршеге (1797) in a plate title, and the name is generally credited to him, although he did not de- scribe the genus. Lamarck (1799) first described Cor- bula but did not specify a type. Schmidt (1818) sub- sequently designated Corbula sulcata as type (set Stewart, 1930). Aloidis Megerle von Mühlfeldt (1811) is a synonym of Corbula (H. Vokes, 1945, 1980). Un- like most other members of the genus, the type species, Corbula (Corbula) sulcata, has no chondrophore in the left valve; the resilium instead is received in 4 socket-like resilifer behind the cardinal socket. Geologic range of the genus is Cretaceous to Recent (Moore, 1969). The genus is found worldwide in trop” ical to temperate waters that range from marine (0 brackish salinities (Boss, 1982). Some species are tol- erant of waters low in dissolved oxygen (Lewy an Samtleben, 1979). Subgenus BOTHROCORBULA Gabb, 1873a Bothrocorbula Gabb, 1873a, p. 274, pl. 10, figs. 3, 3a. Туре species.—Corbula viminea Guppy, 18666; БУ monotypy. Pliocene, Bowden Formation, Jamaica. Diagnosis. —Shell moderately large and thickened. Valves subequal, with coarse concentric ribs and fine radial striations. Characteristic deep lunular depressio” in front of umbos. Right valve hinge with cardina tooth in front of socket-like resilifer. Left valve hing? with cardinal socket in front of chondrophore. (See Gabb, 1873a; Gardner, 1926; H. Vokes, 1945.) Remarks.—This subgenus ranges from Miocene 10 Pleistocene in Florida, the West Indies, and eastern Central America (see p. 13-14). It is found in sedi- ments deposited in shallow-marine and marginal-M% rine waters. The Miocene-to-Recent taxon Нехасо“ bula Olsson, 1932 closely resembles Bothrocorbul@ but lacks а lunular pit.

It is typically found in silty shell beds or thin shell-rich stringers interbed- ded with silts. This species also is found in bioclast- rich sediment filling burrows, scattered in silts, and in pebbly and conglomeratic layers. Woodring (1925) states that Dominican forms of C. viminea are smaller and slightly more elongate than Jamaican forms. Comparison.—Corbula (Bothrocorbula) wilcoxii Dall, 1898, a Pleistocene species from the Caloosa- hatchee and Bermont formations of southern Florida (Anderson, unpublished data), shows some morpho- logic overlap with С. viminea. Corbula viminea tends to be slightly larger and has a more evenly rounded anterior margin than С. wilcoxii. The valve margin of C. wilcoxii typically is flattened into a short horizontal ledge anterior of the beak, resulting in a projecting anterior, Although the two species typically are dis- tinct, intermediate forms can be found in both species. Corbula (Bothrocorbula) synarmostes Dall, 1898 of the Miocene Chipola Formation of Florida is smaller and has a much smaller lunule than C. viminea. Cor- bula (Bothrocorbula) radiatula Dall, 1898 of the Mio- cene Oak Grove Formation of Florida is also smaller 14 BULLETIN 351 than C. viminea, has a reduced lunule, and more pro- nounced radial ornament. Occurrence.—This species was collected from the following areas (see Saunders et al., 1986 for locality information): Río Cana: Cercado Formation: TU 1230, and NMB 16835, 16836, 16837, 16838, 16839, 16844, 16857, 16988, 16989, 16993, 17005.

Mislabeled as cotypes (syntypes) of Corbula (Cuneocorbula) caim- шса but are Corbula (Cuneocorbula) cercadica illustrated in pl. 39, figs. 16, 17 of Maury 1917). The syntypes of Corbula (Cuneocor- bula) caimitica are apparently lost (W. Allmon, pers. comm., 1994), for railroad 1.5 miles west of Limón, Costa Rica. The source of the aggregate is USGS locality 2694: in situ Limón Reef (= Moín Formation, Pliocene). Material.—Measured and/or figured specimens: NMB G 14114, 14115, 14116, 14117, 14118, 14119, 14120, 14121, 14122, 14123. Additional material: UW 1863/25, 1863/26. Other specimens (thousands of valves) are cataloged by locality, which are listed in the Occurrence section. Measurements.—See Table 4. Remarks.—This species is locally abundant in Up- per Miocene shallow-marine (< 30 m) and brackish- water deposits of the Río Cana, Río Gurabo and Río Mao sections. It also occurs in Miocene and Pliocene intermediate and deeper marine (> 30 to + 100 m) sediments of the Río Cana, Río Gurabo, Cañada Za- laya, Río Amina, Río Verde, and Río Yaque del Norte sections. Corbula sericea is found in a variety of sed- iment types in the study area although it predominantly occurs scattered in silts and in shell beds with a silty matrix. Corbula sericea is morphologically variable, al- though most shape variation is highly correlated with size. Size and size-correlated shape, in turn, are con- tinuous and are closely related to paleoenvironmental conditions (Anderson, 1994). Specimens from very shallow marine deposits of the Rio Mao have a sub- triangular valve outline (Pl. 2, figs. 16, 17). Average height to length ratio (H:L) is 0.72 (all height to length ratios for C. sericea reported here are based on data from Anderson, 1994). The ventral margin of these forms is directed upward at a slight angle in both di- rections from the midline. There is no invagination of the ventral margin in association with the keel or ros- trum. The rostrum is very subdued to nearly absent and is directed downward. Most forms һауе an evenly rounded dorsal margin, although in some, the umbo is somewhat set off and projecting. Specimens from very shallow marine sediments of the Río Cana section (Pl. 2, figs. 12, 13) tend to be larger and more elongate (average H:L = 0.63) than those of the Río Mao section. In addition, the rostruM in Río Cana specimens is located in a more dorsal position on the posterior margin, and it tends to point posteriorly rather than ventrally. As a result, valves have an ovate outline. Convexity of the keel varies but most specimens have a slightly sinuous keel. The dorsoanterior slope is nearly straight, and the highest point of the valve is located more anteriorly than mn the Río Mao specimens. Brackish water forms from the Río Cana section (Pl 2, figs. 10, 11, 14, 15) also are large, ovate, and elon- gate (average H:L = 0.68), although not as elongate as valves from very shallow-marine deposits of Ше Río Cana. In addition, the dorsoanterior slope is more rounded than in very shallow-marine forms. The ro" trum is moderately expressed to obsolete, and when present, is directed ventrally. The ventral margin је strongly rounded, and the keel less sinuous than 1” shallow-marine forms of the Río Cana section. Valves from intermediate and deeper marine de- posits of the Río Gurabo, Río Mao, Río Cana, an Río Yaque del Norte sections tend to be smaller thar those of other paleoenvironments but are very simila in shape to the Río Mao specimens. For these deep? water forms (Pl. 2, figs. 18, 19), H:L is 0.72 to 0.! on average. Pliocene valves of deeper marine deposit? of the Cañada Zalaya section (Pl. 2, figs. 20, 21) 8“ similar in both size and shape to other deeper water forms, except that the ventral margin tends to be fiat ter.

The species C. manzan- illensis Maury, 1925 of the Miocene Manzanilla For- Mation of Trinidad is very small, has coarser ribs at Comparable sizes, is strongly triangular, and less elon- gate than C. sericea. Corbula (Caryocorbula) oropendula Olsson, 1922 has coarser sculpture, has a straighter keel and more ventrally located rostrum, is more elongate, and has à more strongly and evenly rounded ventral margin than C. sericea. Corbula (Caryocorbula) oropendula dolicha Woodring, 1982 is similar in shape to C. or- OPendula but has finer sculpture. Corbula (Caryocor- bula) oropendula stena Woodring (1982) is much More rounded, tends to be smaller, and its rostrum Creates a more prominent notch in the ventral margin than seen in C. sericea.

Subgenus JULIACORBULA Olsson and Harbison, 1953 Juliacorbula Olsson and Harbison, 1953, p. 148-149. Type species. —Corbula aequivalvis Philippi, 1836 (= Corbula cubaniana Orbigny, 1846; = Corbula knoxiana Adams, 1852b); by original designation. Recent, West Indies. Diagnosis.—Shell small- to medium-sized, nearly equivalved. Subrectangular with strong keel and sharply truncated posterior. Well-defined escutcheon located behind beak. Hinge as in Caryocorbula. (See Olsson and Harbison, 1953; Olsson, 1961.) Remarks.—Juliacorbula differs from Caryocorbu- la in shape and in the presence of an escutcheon. The type species was originally designated as C. cubani- ana, which generally is agreed to be a junior syn- onym of C. aequivalvis (see McLean, 1951; Weis- bord, 1964; Rios, 1975). The geologic range of Ju- liacorbula is Miocene to Recent in the West Indies, eastern Pacific, Central and South America, and Flor- ida (Moore, 1969; Olsson and Harbison, 1953). Mem- bers of this group inhabit shallow-marine environ- ments. Corbula (Juliacorbula) fossilis Pilsbry, 1922 Plate 2, figures 22-26 Corbula contracta Say. Gabb, 1873b, p. 247.

Description.—Valves relatively small, subtrapezo- idal, and moderately inflated. Ventral margin flattened 18 BULLETIN 351 to slightly concave at midline. Dorsoanterior margin also slightly concave in front of umbo. Directly pos- terior of beak, valve margin planar, gently sloping ventrally (sloping more steeply in left valves) to ros- trum so that rostrum nearly as high as entire valve.

It is not possible at this time to determine whether this differ- ence is of taxonomic significance because of the pau- city of material. Corbula (Juliacorbula) scutata Gard- ner, 1943 of the Florida Pleistocene is very similar 10 C. fossilis but has coarser ribs, a more arched and less sinuous keel, a less concave dorsoanterior margin, and can be more elongate. The Pleistocene to Recent С. aequivalvis Philippi, 1836 (=C. knoxiana C. B. Ad- ams, =C. cubaniana Orbigny) may be a peramorphic descendent of C. fossilis. Smaller specimens of C. ае- quivalvis overlap in morphology with C. fossilis. Cor- bula aequivalvis differs from С. fossilis, however in attaining a larger size, having a more rounded ventral margin that shows its greatest convexity anterior of the midline, not having a concave dorsoanterior margin, being more elongate, having a more sinuous keel, and tending to have finer ribs. Occurrence.—This species was collected from the following areas (see Saunders et al., 1986 for locality information): Río Cana: Upper Gurabo Formation: NMB 16817. Río Gurabo: Cercado Formation: NMB 15914.

Diagnosis.—Valves moderately large and inflat but relatively thin, not rostrate. Surface smooth or wit very fine concentric ribs. Hinge of right valve with anterior cardinal tooth and posterior socket-like res! lifer. Left valve hinge with anterior cardinal socket 20 posterior chondrophore. (See Pilsbry, 1932; H. Vokes» 1945; Olsson, 1961.) Remarks.—Contrary to the original description, lateral teeth are present. What Pilsbry (1932) describe as long laterals in the right valve are actually buttresses for grooves that receive the dorsal margin of the left valve (H. Vokes, 1945; Moore, 1969). Living Pan amicorbula are found in the Panamic Province (easter ted no CORBULID BIVALVES: ANDERSON 19 Pacific; Mazatlán to Peru) in brackish water (Pilsbry, 1932; Olsson, 1961). The subgenus is reported as abundant but poorly preserved from Middle Miocene Sediments at Punta Judas, Pacific Coast, Costa Rica (Seyfried et al., 1985). It is also present in USNM Collections (with U.S. Geological Survey locality num- bers) of the Lower Pliocene l’ Enfer Formation (USGS 21842, USGS 20433) and Lower Pliocene Springvale Formation (USGS 20421, USGS 21083, USGS 20423) Of Trinidad.

Measurements.—See Table 6. Remarks.—This is the first description of a fossil Pan- amicorbula species and the first description of a Carib- bean Panamicorbula. This species is restricted to the * Arca" beds of the Upper Miocene Cercado Formation Río Cana section (see Saunders et al., 1986). It is found in interbedded shelly silts and silty clays, and in shell beds. Living representatives of Panamicorbula are re- stricted to the Pacific coast of Central America where they inhabit mangrove swamps and areas near the mouths of streams (Pilsbry, 1932; H. Vokes, 1945; Keen, 1971). Corbula canae apparently had similar environ- mental preferences because it occurs in sediments de- posited in or near mangrove swamps (Anderson, 1994). Comparison.—Corbula (Panamicorbula) inflata (Ad- ams, 1852a) (synonyms: C. aequalis [Adams, 18524], С. trigonalis [Adams, 1852a], and C. macdonaldi Dall, 1912) is much larger than C. canae and differs somewhat in shape. The ventral margin of C. inflata (Adams, 1852a) is flatter and is most convex near the valve mid- line, the keel is less arcuate, and the rostrum is absent. Occurrence.—This species was collected from the following areas (see Saunders et al., 1986 for locality information): Río Cana: Cercado Formation: NMB 16843, 16845, 16990, 16841, 16993, 16987, 16989, 16840, 16844, 16852, and 16842.

Plate 3, figure 11 Diagnosis.—Small uninflated valves (— 6.5 mm) of Panamicorbula with rectangular shape. Table 7.—Measurements of Corbula (Panamicorbula) sp. Figures are in mm. specimen valve length height width NMB С 14133: (Pl. 3, fig. 11); NMB locality 16990 right 5.4 4.0 1.8 Material.—Measured and/or figured specimens: NMB G 14113. Other specimens (15 right valves, and 4 left valves) are cataloged by locality, which are listed in the Occurrence section. Measurements.—See Table 7. Remarks.—These are small, apparently immature valves of a Panamicorbula species. Although these valves may be small individuals of Corbula (Panam- icorbula) canae, the small number of valves for com- parison and lack of intermediates makes assignment uncertain. These valves co-occur with C. canae in in- terbedded shelly silts and silty clays, and shell beds dominated by Anadara patricia in the upper part of the Upper Miocene Cercado Formation of the Río Cana section. Comparison.—Valve shape of Corbula (Panamicor- bula) sp. resembles Caryocorbula, but these valves are not as inflated as Caryocorbula, and the resilifer of the right valve opens ventrally (as in Panamicorbula). These valves differ from Corbula (Panamicorbula) canae in that they are small, much less inflated, and rectangular (rather than triangular) in shape. Occurrence.—This species was collected from the following areas (see Saunders et al., 1986 for locality information): Río Cana: Cercado Formation: NMB 16845, 16990, 16993, 16987, 16989, 16846, 16852, 16986. Distribution.—Upper Miocene Cercado Formation, Dominican Republic. Subgenus VARICORBULA Grant and Gale, 1931 Varicorbula Grant and Gale, 1931, p. 420, footnote 1. Type species.—Tellina gibba Olivi, 1792; by orig- inal designation. Recent, west coast of Europe and Mediterranean Sea. Diagnosis.—Valves small to moderate in size with right and left valves strongly unequal in size, shape, and ornamentation. Right valve larger, more inflated and relatively higher; left valve smaller, more elongate, and much less inflated. Right valves with strongly ex- pressed concentric ribs. Left valves with fine, widely spaced, radial ribs and fine concentric growth-lines; thicker concentric ribs may be present on beak and umbo. Right valve hinge with anterior cardinal tooth and posterior socket-like resilifer. Left valve hinge with anterior cardinal socket and posterior chondro- phore. BULLETIN 351 Remarks.—Some workers (Stenzel et al., 1957; Weisbord, 1964; Jung, 1969) consider Varicorbula to be a junior synonym of Notocorbula Iredale, 1930. Woodring (1982), however, advocated continued use of Varicorbula until the type species of Notocorbula was better known. Stenzel et al. (1957) state that the nepionic shells evident in both valves of the type spe- cies, Corbula (Notocorbula) vicaria (Iredale, 1930), can be seen in a more subdued form in С. gibba (Olivi, 1792), the type species of Varicorbula, and use this trait as a basis for synonymy. Corbula vicaria, how- ever, does apparently differ from C. gibba in that left and right valves are subequal in size and shape, where- as Varicorbula is strongly inequivalved. Therefore, Varicorbula 15 used here. The geologic range of Varicorbula is Еосепе to Re- cent in eastern North America, Europe, and the eastern and western Pacific (Moore, 1969). Varicorbula spe- cies inhabit marine waters and can locally dominate the benthic fauna (е.о., Yonge, 1946).

Right valve also with very subtle to obsolete keel and rostrum, evenly spaced moderately coarse flat-topped concentric ribs, and evenly convex ventra margin. Valve shape varies with size. Small right valves inflated with concave dorsoanterior slope, umbo directed anteriorly, and obsolete keel. Inflation increas- es, dorsoanterior slope becomes less concave, ап umbo becomes more dorsally oriented with increasing size. Subtle keel and slight rostrum also develop и size increases. Left valves more elongate and quadrate, and much less inflated than right. Left valves with faint, concen” tric growth lines and widely spaced and slightly more distinct radial striations. Radial striations absent 9 posterior slope. Small left and right valves (2-3 mm CORBULID BIVALVES: ANDERSON 21 In length) very similar in shape, but radial ribs more Prominent on left valves and сопсепшс ribs more Prominent on right valves. As size increases, left Valves become more quadrate and keel become more Strongly expressed. Hinge of right valve with small, blunt, anterior car- dinal tooth directly beneath beak and posterior, broad, Socket-like resilifer that extends slightly beneath beak. Resilifer, appears reduced because hinge plate con- Cave. Subsidiary denticle may occur above cardinal tooth, formed by projection of valve margin beneath beak. Furrows present on either side of right valve hinge for reception of left valve. Left valve hinge with ап anterior small subtriangular socket, and posterior broad chondrophore. Dorsal surface of chondrophore with prominent anterior ridge, more subdued midline паре, and posterior ridge with small denticle. Posterior Portion of chondrophore projects strongly upward and May be visible externally. Muscle scars not thickened. Osterior scar circular; anterior scar ovate. Pallial sinus Obsolete, Type Material. —Holotype: PRI 903 (right valve). Figured by Maury (1917, РІ. 39, fig. 13; 1925, РІ. 19, fig. 2), and refigured here (Pl. 3, fig. 12). Type locality.—Río Cana at Caimito, Dominican Republic (designated by Maury, 1925). The type lo- Cality is here restricted to TU 1230: Cercado Forma- tion (Upper Miocene), Río Cana, Dominican Republic (fide Jung, 1986).

Gabb (1873b) placed Varicorbula from the Dominican Republic in C. disparilis and also consid- ered C. vieta to be a junior synonym of C. disparilis. Recent specimens of Varicorbula of the western At- lantic represent a taxonomic quandary, and they have been variously assigned to Corbula disparilis Orbigny, 1846?; C. operculata Philippi, 1848; and C. philippii Smith, 1885 (see Weisbord, 1964 and Woodring, 1982 for discussion). The synonymy of these names is not controversial, although authors differ on which is se- nior. Woodring (1982) states that Orbigny’s illustration is poor and the dates of publication controversial; the imprinted date is 1846, although the probable publi- cation date is 1853 (Keen, 1971). Those who doubt the 1846 publication date use C. operculata Philippi, 1848 for this species. However named, the Recent spe- cies appears distinct from C. vieta s. s. and C. sanc- tidominici, because it attains a larger maximum size, is more elongate in shape with gentler anterior and posterior dorsal slopes, has coarser ribs, and has a stronger rostrum and keel. Pilsbry (1922), in his revision of Gabb’s Dominican species, concurs with Dall (1898) that C. vieta and C. disparilis are not synonymous, and assigned Gabb’s specimens to C. vieta. Maury (1917) first placed her Dominican Varicorbula in C. vieta, but later (Maury, 1925) considered her Dominican form to be distinct, and named it C. sanctidominici. Maury (1925) stated that her Dominican specimen was larger (10 mm long, 10 mm high compared to 6 mm X 6 mm for C. vieta from the type area), more inflated, and had more nu- merous (about 26 rather than about 25) and more closely spaced ribs. Maury (1925), however, did not place Gabb’s (1873b) Dominican Varicorbula speci- mens in synonymy with C. sanctidominici, stating they are either C. vieta or C. sanctidominici. The type material of C. vieta (USNM 115650; left valves of C. vieta were assigned to Erycina tensa Gup- py, 1866a, USNM 115652) are not well preserved, and the margins of the larger right valve are not complete, making comparison difficult. Corbula vieta from the type locality shows the same size range as Dominican varicorbulids, but tends to be more elongate, have a wider umbo, less concave dorsoanterior slope, and stronger keel. The material from this study agrees well with Gabb’s (1873b) material (ANSP 2690) from the Do- minican Republic. Maury’s type (PRI 903) of C. sanc- tidominici is, however, somewhat unusual for Domin- ican Varicorbula. Her specimen is a right valve that is 22 BULLETIN 351 unusually large and coarsely ribbed. Unfortunately, the ventral margin is not intact so it is difficult to deter- mine original valve shape, a diagnostic feature. Nev- ertheless, the traits that Maury noted as diagnostic for C. sanctidominici seem to be correlated with size in Dominican Varicorbula. Therefore, I place both my material and Gabb's Dominican material in C. sancti- dominici. Comparison.—Corbula (Varicorbula) sanctiander- aea Maury (1925) of the Miocene Manzanilla For- mation of Trinidad has a left valve with a very convex beak that is subequal in size to the right valve's beak. In addition, the right valve of C. sanctianderaea is relatively more elongate and subequilateral with a wid- er umbo and stronger rostrum than C. sanctidominici. Corbula heterogena Guppy (in Dall, 1898) of the Pliocene Bowden Formation of Jamaica is very similar in size and shape to C. sanctidominici. In C. hetero- gena, however, the umbos of the right valve are less elevated and prominent, and are not as strongly di- rected anteriorly because the dorsoanterior margin is less concave. Therefore, in C. sanctidominici the right valve umbo appears narrower and more set off from the ventral portion of the valve. In addition, the right valve of C. heterogena is more elongate and has a stronger rostrum and keel. The left valves of C. het- erogena are more inflated and have more prominent beaks. Woodring (1982) assigns specimens of the Miocene and Pliocene of Panama and Costa Rica to Corbula (Varicorbula) disparilis. He also considered C. wal- tonensis Gardner, 1928 from the Miocene of Florida a junior synonym of C. disparilis, thus allowing much morphologic variation in the species. Woodring's (1982) figured specimens are very similar to C. het- erogena. 'These Central American forms differ from C. sanctidominici in having a stronger rostrum and keel, beaks directed dorsally rather than anteriorly, and à somewhat sinuous rather than straight ventral margin.

All se- lected valves were measured but due to missing data on less than pristine valves, not all may have been incorporated into the principal components analyses (PCA). marily using macrofossil and microfossil assemblages. Brackish: Shallow: Intermediate: Characterized by mollusks such as Larkinia, Mytilus, and Melongena, Anadara patricia, and brackish-wa- ter ostracodes. Depths approximately 0-30 m. Characterized by shallow-marine benthic foraminifera (Amphistegi- na, soritids, miliolids), shallow-ma- rine mollusks (Pachycrommium, Stigmaulux, Anadara, Tellina, Strombina) and shallow-marine os- tracodes (Cytherella, Radimella, Caudites, Proteoconcha, Loxocon- cha, Paracytheridea). Planktonic foraminifera and calcareous nan- nofossils are absent. Depths approximately 30-100 m. Characterized by abundant and di- verse assemblage of shallow-water ostracodes, benthic foraminifera, corals, mollusks (including Strom- bus, Oliva, Polystira, and Lyria), and a few planktonic foraminiferal species. Depths > 100 m. Characterized by rich assemblage of planktonic fo- raminifera, high ratios of plankton- 1c to benthic foraminifera, deep wa- ter ostracodes (e.g., Krithe), and pteropods. Deep: APPENDIX 2 Samples used for analyses illustrated in Text-figures 4-6. Samples selected to provide broad stratigraphic coverage. Abbreviations are as follows: Section = Stratigraphic section; Cana = Río Cana; Gurabo = Río Gurabo; Mao = Río Mao; Yaque = Río Yaque del Norte; Zalaya = Cañada Zalaya. Formation = Geologic Formation. If blank, Saunders er al. (1986) did not assign. Age = Geologic age. Environment = Environmental category (for Corbula sericea). See Appendix 1 for criteria used to distinguish categories. Sed. Type = Sediment type (for Corbula viminea). Categories are: 1 = silts with bioclasts in lenticular beds or lenses; 2 = silts with bioclasts filling burrows; 3 = silts with mollusks dispersed in matrix; 4 = silty sands with bioclasts dispersed or concentrated, Valves = Number of valves used in each sample. If a sample contained less than 30 valves (left or right) all were measured, For С. sericea, if a sample contained more than 30 right valves, 30 were randomly selected. For C. viminea, if a sample contained more than Corbula (Caryocorbula) sericea environment valves section sample formation age Cana NMB 16865 Gurabo Pliocene Intermediate 3 Cana NMB 17009 Gurabo Pliocene Intermediate 4 Cana NMB 16848 Cercado Miocene Brackish 22 Сапа TU 1230 Cercado Miocene Shallow 19 Сала UW 1863/27 Cercado Miocene Shallow 22 Cana NMB 16855 Cercado Miocene Shallow 21 Gurabo ММВ 15833 Мао Pliocene Deep 7 Gurabo TU 1352 Mao Pliocene Deep 10 Gurabo NMB 15805 Gurabo Pliocene Deep 24 Gurabo ММВ 15842 Gurabo Miocene Intermediate 10 Gurabo NMB 15846 Gurabo Miocene Intermediate 10 Gurabo ММВ 15863 Gurabo Miocene Intermediate 12 Gurabo ММВ 16810 Gurabo Miocene Intermediate 17 Gurabo ММВ 15869 Gurabo Miocene Intermediate 21 Gurabo NMB 15911 Cercado Miocene Shallow 1 Gurabo ММВ 15912 Cercado Міосепе Shallow 1 Мао NMB 16910 Miocene Intermediate 5 Mao NMB 16802 Miocene Intermediate 7 Mao NMB 16929 Miocene Shallow 24 Mao NMB 16928 Miocene Shallow 25 Mao UW 1863/25 Miocene Shallow 25 Mao UW 1863/26 Miocene Shallow 23 Mao NMB 16913 Miocene Shallow 23 Yaque ТО 1206 Pliocene Deep 16 Zalaya TU 1227A Pliocene Deep 27 Yaque TU 1403 Pliocene Deep 16 Yaque ММВ 17278 Miocene Shallow 2 Yaque ММВ 17273 Miocene Brackish 3 Corbula (Bothrocorbula) viminea section sample formation age sed. type valves Cana NMB 16833 Gurabo Miocene 2 28 Cana ММВ 16832 Gurabo Miocene 3 5 Cana NMB 16837 Cercado Miocene a 9 Cana NMB 16838 Cercado Miocene E 3 Cana TU 1230 Cercado Miocene 2 53 Cana NMB 16857 Cercado Miocene І 10 Cana ММВ 17005 Cercado Miocene 1 4 Gurabo NMB 15878 Gurabo Miocene І 4 Gurabo TU 1297 Gurabo Miocene 2 7 Gurabo ММВ 15882 Gurabo Miocene 2 4 Gurabo ММВ 15906 Cercado Miocene 1 47 Gurabo ММВ 15900 Cercado Miocene 1 37 Mao ММВ 16915 Міосепе | 2 Mao NMB 16917 Miocene 1 „a Mao ММВ 16923 Міосепе l 21 Mao NMB 16927 Miocene 1 1 Yaque TU 1445 Miocene — 2 Yaque ММВ 16938 Baitoa Miocene 3 5 Yaque ММВ 16936 Вайоа Miocene 3 Yaque ММВ 16935 Baitoa Miocene 4 1 Yaque ММВ 17289 Baitoa Miocene 4 2 Yaque ТО 1364 Baitoa Міосепе 4 9 xaque ІШ 1363 Вайоа Міосепе 4 2 Yaque ММВ 17288 Baitoa Miocene 3 2 Yaque ММВ 17286 Baitoa Miocene 4 | PLATES 28 BULLETIN 351 EXPLANATION OF PLATE 1 Figure Page 1-5, 10, ГІ, 15, 14, Corba (БОШОСО УШ а) viminea Guppy, 18660 ie cue ea 12 1, 4.

THE FAMILIES CUSPIDARIIDAE AND VERTICORDUDAE (MOLLUSCA: BIVALVIA) PETER JUNG Naturhistorisches Museum Augustinergasse 2, CH-4051, Basel, Switzerland ABSTRACT Seven species belonging to two genera of Cuspidariidae and two genera of Verticordiidae are described and figured. Five of them occur in the Neogene sections of the Dominican Republic and their stratigraphic occurrences are given. Two species of the verticordiid genus Trigonulina are known from the Recent fauna only: one from the Western Atlantic, the other from the Eastern Pacific. The latter is described as new (7. pacifica п. sp.). The two living species are discussed һегеіп for comparative purposes. Out of the five fossil species, only two are well represented (Cardiomya islahispaniolae and Trigonulina bowdenensis). The remaining three species are known from very few specimens. RESUMEN Se describen siete especies pertenecientes a dos géneros de la familia Cuspidariidae y a dos géneros de la familia Verticordiidae. Cinco de ellas se encuentran representadas en las secciones del Neogeno de la República Dominicana; se indican sus ámbitos estratigráficos. Dos especies de verticordidos del género Trigonulina solamente se conocen de la fauna actual. 7. pacifica habita en el Pacífico Oriental y se describe aqui por primera vez; la otra habita en el Atlántico Occidental. Ambas se mencionan con Propósitos comparativos. De las cinco especies fósiles, apenas dos estan bien representadas (Cardiomya islahispaniolae y Tri- gonulina bowdenensis). El material existente de las restantes tres especies es muy escaso.

They have been included here for comparative purposes. The stratigraphic occurrences of the remaining five species аге plotted in Text-figures 2-7. The species are not continuously present through a given sequence of sediments, but their occurrences are spotty (Jung and Petit, 1990, p. 88; Jung, 1994, p. 6). The five species occur in the following sections: Río Gurabo section (Text-figs. 2, 3): Cardiomya islahispaniolae (Maury, 1917) Cardiomya distira (Dall, 1903) Haliris jamaicensis (Dall, 1903) Trigonulina bowdenensis (Dall, 1903) Río Cana section (Text-fig. 4): Cardiomya islahispaniolae (Maury, 1917) Plectodon granulatus (Dall, 1881) Trigonulina bowdenensis (Dall, 1903) Río Mao section (Text-figs. 5-7): Cardiomya islahispaniolae (Maury, 1917) Arroyo Zalaya: Cardiomya distira (Dall, 1903) Haliris jamaicensis (Dall, 1903) Arroyo Babosico near La Barranca, Río Yaque del Norte: Cardiomya distira (Dall, 1903) Río Verde: Trigonulina bowdenensis As сап be seen from the above lists Cardiomya 15 lahispaniolae occurs in the sections of Río Gurabo» Río Cana, and Río Mao. Trigonulina bowdenensis has been found in the sections of Río Gurabo, Río Can? and Río Verde. Cardiomya distira 15 recorded from the sections of Río Gurabo, Arroyo Zalaya, and Arroyo Babosico; Haliris jamaicensis from the sections of RI? Gurabo and Arroyo Zalaya, whereas Plectodon gral” ulatus is restricted to the Río Cana section. The representation of these five species in the VA" ious sections is rather uneven. Four species occur i the Río Gurabo section, three in the Río Cana section two in Arroyo Zalaya, and a single species in the sec“ tions of Rio Mao, Arroyo Babosico, and Rio Verde: The numerical representation of the five species ! the Dominican deposits is uneven as well. Trigonú 0 bowdenensis is represented by 80, Cardiomya isla ispaniolae by 52 Dominican specimens. On the още! hand Cardiomya distira is represented by only eight Haliris jamaicensis by three, and Plectodon gran" = tus by a single specimen. The three latter species there" fore are very rare.

As mentioned below under Cardiomya islahispaniolae, the holotype of that species is badly broken (Fast, 1978, p. 80) and therefore could not be refigured. In addition the type specimens of four spe- cies of Cuspidariidae and Verticordiidae described by Dall (1903) from the early Pliocene Bowden Forma- tion of Jamaica have been available to me: Cardiomya craspedonia, which does not occur in the Dominican Republic, and Cardiomya distira, Haliris jamaicensis, and Trigonulina bowdenensis, which occur in the Do- minican Republic as well. The type lots of all these four species consist of three specimens each. All those specimens are glued to a piece of black paper. I tried to remove the specimens from the black paper using various chemicals in an attempt to dissolve the glue but without success. Lectotypes of all four species have been selected, but they are not refigured herein. Although the amount of material available for this study is mentioned under each species, a summary of the number of lots and specimens of each species is given in Table 1. As mentioned above, three of the species discussed herein are also known from the Bowden Formation of Table 1.—Numbers of lots and specimens of each of the seven species of Cuspidariidae and Verticordiidae dealt with in this paper. number number of taxon of lots specimens Cardiomya (Cardiomya) islahispaniolae 20 50 Cardiomya (Bowdenia) distira 8 47 Plectodon granulatus 14 22 Haliris jamaicensis 4 10 Trigonulina ornata 6 1049 Trigonulina pacifica 22 1840 Trigonulina bowdenensis 32 hz Total 104 3130 Jamaica, but their numerical representation differs greatly from that in the Dominican Republic. Table 2 gives the number of specimens of the five fossil spe- cies available from the Dominican Republic and from Bowden, Jamaica. A short discussion of species concepts has been giv- en by Jung (1986, p. 9; 1989, p. 37), and definitions of the headings used in the following systematic part may be found in Jung (1989, p. 35) and in Jung and Petit (1990, p. 93). They are not repeated here. SYSTEMATICS Family CUSPIDARIIDAE Dall, 1886 Genus CARDIOMYA A. Adams, 1864 Cardiomya A. Adams, 1864, p. 208 Type species (by monotypy).—Neaera gouldiana Hinds, 1843. Recent, seas of Japan. Diagnosis.—Shell of small to medium size, rostrate. Sculpture consisting of radial ribs. Radial sculpture of- ten restricted to main shell disc or continuing over the rostrum as well. There may be secondary radial ribs. Left hinge with a subumbonal chondrophore but no teeth. Right hinge with a subumbonal chondrophore and one or two lateral teeth. Posterior lateral tooth usu- ally prominent. Remarks.—Cardiomya not only includes Neogene, Pleistocene (Grant and Gale, 1931), and Recent spe- cies but also a number of species from deposits of Eocene and Oligocene age (Durham, 1944; Gardner, 1945; Harris, 1919; Meyer and Aldrich, 1886; Turner, 1938; Vokes, 1939). According to the Treatise on In- vertebrate Paleontology (p. N854) the oldest record dates back to the late Cretaceous. The stratigraphic range of Cardiomya is therefore late Cretaceous to Re- cent.

Description.—Shell of medium size (up to 9 mm іп length), delicate, rostrate. Umbos prosogyrate, place almost centrally. Sculpture consisting of numerous 127 dial ribs. Posteriormost rib more prominent than the others, forming a small carina marking the boundary between main shell disc and rostrum. In addition 19 this small carina there may be one or more ribs just anterior to it which are more prominent than all the other ribs on the main shell disc and have wider 11” terspaces. There may be a few secondary radial ribs. Except for the more prominent posterior ribs the radia ribs are usually well developed only on the ventral part of the main shell disc. Dorsal part of the main she disc is smooth or sculptured by concentric grow! lines. The rostrum is smooth or sculptured by grow! lines. There may be an indication of a radial rib пейї its postero-dorsal margin, where the growth lines are coarser and more prominent.

Dalen mentioned in the introduction to the systematic à ontology, the type specimens of four species of ( подигнаа and Verticordiidae described Бу Dall iim 3) from the early Pliocene Bowden Formation of b are available. Three of them occur in the Do- E Republic as well: Cardiomya (Bowdenia) dis- " , ација Jamaicensis, and Trigonulina bowdenen- Selec Or each of these species a lectotype has been for За (see under those species). The same is done E и fourth species, Cardiomya (Cardiomya) cras- и ~ which does not occur in the Dominican Re- з ІС but is compared with С. islahispaniolae. As is Case for the other three species the type lot of C. craspedonia consists of three specimens, which had been glued to a piece of black paper and cannot be removed from it without risk of damage. The type specimens of C. craspedonia (all left valves) are: 1. Lectotype: USNM 135691. Length 4.5 mm; height 2.7 mm. This is the specimen figured by Dall (1903, pl. 57, fig. 17) and Woodring (1925, pl. 10, fig. 20). 2. Paralectotype: USNM 482409. Length 3.6 mm; height 2.3 mm. This is the specimen figured by Woodring (1925, pl. 10, fig. 22). 3. Paralectotype: USNM 482410. Length 4.3 mm; height 2.8 mm. This is the specimen figured by Woodring (1925, pl. 10, fig. 21). Comparisons.—C. islahispaniolae is similar but nevertheless clearly distinct from C. craspedonia Dall (1903, p. 1506, pl. 57, fig. 17) from the early Pliocene Bowden Formation of Bowden, Jamaica. It is not only considerably larger (practically twice as large) than C. craspedonia, but C. craspedonia has more numerous secondary radial ribs on the main shell disc. In addi- tion the rostrum of C. craspedonia is proportionately shorter.

Genus PLECTODON Carpenter, 1864 Plectodon Carpenter, 1864, pp. 611, 638. Type species (by original designation and mono- typy).—Plectodon scaber Carpenter, 1864, pp. 611, 638. Recent, Catalina Island, California, to Santa Inez Bay, east coast of Baja California, Mexico (Palmer, 1958, p. 80). Throughout the Gulf of California and south to Panama and the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador, in 20 to 250 m (Keen, 1971, p. 302). Diagnosis.—Shell of medium to large size (up to 24 mm in length), rostrate, moderately delicate. Antero- ventral margin evenly rounded. Exterior surface of shell covered by pustules. Resilium situated posterior to the umbo. Dorsal margin of left valve twisted just anterior to the umbo forming a small, toothlike pro- jection. No lateral teeth in left valve. Right hinge with ` an anterior and a posterior lateral tooth. Remarks.—The holotype of P. scaber (USNM 592441) unfortunately is broken into several fragments (see also Palmer, 1958, p. 80). Originally it was mounted on a piece of glass. The fragmentation prob- ably happened when the specimen was removed from the glass. Other material of P. scaber is figured here (РІ. 2, figs. 5-8) for comparison with P. granulatus. The stratigraphic range of the genus Plectodon is given as Pliocene to Recent (Dall, 1903, p. 1507). The single right valve from the Dominican Republic de- scribed below has been collected from sediments of late Miocene age, and the single valve from the middle Miocene Shoal River Formation of Florida reported by Gardner (1926, p. 64) as Cuspidaria (Plectodon) cf. granulata Dall extend the range of Plectodon from middle Miocene to Recent.

Description.—Shell of medium size (up to 18 mm in length), rostrate, moderately delicate. Antero-ventral margin evenly rounded. Umbos prosogyrate. Exterior surface of shell covered by pustules. In the umbonal area there are fewer or no pustules; instead the growth lines are more clearly developed. Resilium located be- hind the umbo and somewhat toward the interior of the shell. Dorsal margin of the left valve twisted just in front of the umbo, forming a small, toothlike рго- jection. No lateral teeth in left valve. Right hinge with an anterior and a posterior lateral tooth. Lectotype (selected herein). —USNM 63193 (РІ. 2, figs. 9, 10). Dimensions of lectotype.—Length 11.3 mm; height 6.7 mm. Туре locality.—Off Sombrero Island, Leeward 15° lands, Lesser Antilles, in 132 m (72 fathoms). Remarks.—Lot USNM 63193 contains three spect mens, the syntypes of P. granulatus. Тһе specimen chosen as the lectotype is the left valve figured by Dall (1886, pl. 3, fig. 8). One of the paralectotypes is a right valve, the other paralectotype is also a left valve like the lectotype, but is considerably smaller. The two paralectotypes are USNM 887025 (ex USNM 63193). The Dominican Neogene so far has yielded a single specimen of this species, a right valve. It is not quite complete: its postero-dorsal margin is somewhat dam“ aged (РІ. 5, бе. 1). Unfortunately this unique specimen has been broken during handling for scanning electron microscopy (Pl. 5, fig. 3). Olsson and Harbison (1953. p. 67) state that their P. scabratus from the Pliocene of Fort Thompson, Florida, is less “narrow” than Re cent specimens of P. granulatus. It is not clear, how ever, what is meant by “narrow”. It probably refers E the ratio of height to length. In that respect there P some variability in P. granulatus. Two Recent зресг mens of P. granulatus are figured here for compariso" (РІ. 6, figs. 1-4; Pl. 7, figs. 1-4). Comparisons.—The only other species of Plectodo" is the Recent Eastern Pacific P. scaber Carpente" (1864, pp. 611, 638) (for figures see Schenck, 194 pl. 67, figs. 1-4; Palmer, 1958, pl. 6, figs. 6-8; Keen 1971, p. 302, fig. 786; and Pl. 2, figs. 5-8).

Hinge of right valve with a prominent, subum- bonal cardinal tooth and a posterior lateral tooth. Lectotype (selected herein). —USNM 135686. This is the specimen figured by Woodring (1925, pl. 11, fig. 10), a right valve. Dimensions of lectotype.—Length 4.5 mm; height 4.7 mm. Type locality.—Bowden, Jamaica. Bowden Forma- tion (early Pliocene). Paralectotype.—USNM 482413. This is Ше speci- men figured by Woodring (1925, pl. 11, fig. 9), a right valve. Dimensions of paralectotype USNM 482413.— Length 3.8 mm; height 3.8 mm. Paralectotype—USNM 482414. This is the speci- men figured by Woodring (1925, pl. 11, fig. 11), a left valve. Dimensions of paralectotype USNM 482414. — Length 3.3 mm; height 3.1 mm. Remarks.—The lectotype of И. jamaicensis is the largest of the 10 available specimens. Its height is greater than its length. In all the other specimens the length is greater (or the same as) than the height. The type material of this species consists of the lec- totype and the two paralectotypes mentioned above. All three specimens are glued to a piece of black paper. As explained under Cardiomya (Bowdenia) distira it has not been possible to remove the specimens from the black paper. Therefore the lectotype is not refigu- red Bere. Woodring (1925, p. 93) mentioned a fragment from the early Pliocene Bowden Formation of Jamaica that is almost three times as large as the specimens listed below under “Material”. More specimens from Bow- den would be needed in order to be able to identify the fragment mentioned above. Comparisons.—H. jamaicensis is obviously closely related to the living H. fischeriana (Dall) (1881, p. 106), the type species of the genus. H. fischeriana is larger than H. jamaicensis and has more radial ribs. In addition the ventral margin is evenly rounded in H. fischeriana but somewhat angulated in H. jamaicensis.

CUSPIDARIID AND VERTICORDIID BIVALVES: JUNG 47 Remarks.—The Spanish edition of Ramón de la Sa- gras Historia física, política y natural de la Isla de Cuba, volume 5 (molluscs) of the second part (natural history), is dated 1845. On page 327, where Trigon- ulina and its type species, T. ornata, are described, the date is given as 1846. According to Aguayo (1943, p. 38) publication of this edition appears to have started ІП 1844 already and was probably completed only in 1853, Aguayo is quoting the Spanish edition as of 18452, to which the present author is adding [1844- 18537] in the "References Cited". Dall (1889, p. 18) did not have access to the Spanish edition. Both Dall (1889, p. 18) and Aguayo (1943, p. 38) Commented on the dates of publication of the French edition. Both authors state that the atlas was published ІП 1842, The figures of T. ornata given in this atlas (Pl. 27, figs. 30-33) are an indication as defined in Article 12b(7) of the International Code of Zoological omenclature (third edition, 1985). Trigonulina is here used as a full genus, whereas Abbott (1974, p. 563) and Woodring (1925, p. 92) treated it as a subgenus of Verticordia J. Sowerby (1812-1846, p. 68, pl. 639, 1844 [for date of publi- Cation of plate 639 see Renevier, 1855, and Sykes, 1906]. On the other hand Keen (1971, p. 302) consid- ered Trigonulina as a synonym of the subgenus Ver- "cordia s.s. The type species of Verticordia is V. car- diiformis y. Sowerby (1812-1846, p. 68, pl. 639, 1844) rom the Pliocene of England. The original figure Shows that the 13 radial ribs are evenly distributed dl the entire shell disc. In Trigonulina, however, еѓе is a space without radial ribs on the postero- dorsal slope. T. ornata d’Orbigny, the type species of Trigonuli- а 18 not only reported from Western Atlantic waters, ut is also said to occur in the Eastern Pacific (Keen, En р. 302). Having looked at a number of lots from Oth Oceans I come to the conclusion that they are n and that the species from the Eastern Pacific | tote needs a name. For this reason these two liv- 8 Species are briefly discussed and compared below. he Stratigraphic range of Trigonulina is Eocene to Recent. p Trigonulina ornata d'Orbigny, 1842 late 11, figures 1-4; Plate 12, figures 1-4; Text- figures 12, 13 Tri " Eos ornata d'Orbigny, 1842, pl. 27, figs. 30-33; 18457, p.

Sculpture consisting of eight to twelve high, narrow, radial ribs anterior to the unsculptured posterior slope projecting beyond the ventral margin.

This is the only information given with the original description. Remarks.—The holotype of 7. ornata 15 at hand. Its ventral margin is somewhat damaged. It is a left valve. It is the specimen figured in an idealized way and in mirror-image by d’Orbigny (1842, pl. 27, figs. 30, 31). His Figure 31 shows the interior of the valve with a hinge without teeth, a hinge typical for left valves. The holotype is one of the rare cases of a specimen having only eight radial ribs in front of the posterior slope. Due to its imperfect preservation it is not refigured here. As listed under “Material”, six lots with 1049 spec- imens have been used for the description given above. Out of these 1049 specimens 190 valves have been measured (Text-fig. 12) and their ribs in front of the unsculptured posterior slope counted (Text-fig. 13). As indicated in the description the range of the number of ribs is eight to twelve. However, the extremes are rare (Text-fig. 13); there are only three valves with eight ribs, eight valves with nine ribs, and twelve valves with twelve ribs. In other words one should really describe 7. ornata as having ten or eleven ribs. The original description of Verticordia caelata Ver- rill was based on a single right valve with eleven ribs.

All three specimens are glued to a piece of black paper. As explained under Cardiomya (Bowden- ia) distira, it has not been possible to remove the spec- imens from the black paper. The lectotype is therefore not refigured here. As hinted at in the above description, there is some variability as to the number of radial ribs. The large majority of the specimens at hand has eight to 10 ra- dial ribs. Only two valves out of the 90 available spec- imens have only seven radial ribs (Text-fig. 16). One is from Jamaica, the other from the Dominican Re- public. Comparisons.—The Recent Caribbean 7. ornata d’Orbigny is larger than 7. bowdenensis and has more radial ribs. The Recent Eastern Pacific 7. pacifica has about the same number of radial ribs as 7. bowdenen- sis but reaches even larger dimensions than 7. ornata (see also “Comparisons” under T. pacifica).

The series is a publication outlet for significant, longer paleontological monographs (i.e., more than approximately 50 printed pages), for which high quality photographic illustrations and the large quarto format are required. Submissions are welcome from any author, regardless of institutional or or- ganizational affiliation. Authors must, however, be members of the Paleontological Research Institution at time of publication; annual membership is currently US$25.00. Publication costs of the Bulletins are heavily subsidized by the Insti- tution, but authors are currently required to pay illustration charges at a rate of $120.00 per plate and $35.00 per text-figure. Important references for style and format are 1) Bulletins of American Pa- leontology “Instructions for Authors’ (volume 108, number 347, pages 149-153); 2) Chicago Manual of Style (fourteenth edition) 1993. Recent issues of the Bul- letins provide useful guides but note changes with the “Instructions for Authors" mentioned above. Manuscripts must be typewritten, and double-spaced throughout (including direct quotations, tables and references). All manuscripts should contain a table of contents, lists of text-figures and/or tables, and a short, informative abstract that includes names of all new taxa. Format should follow that of recent numbers in the series. All measurements must be given in the metric system, alone or in addition to their English system equivalents, The maximum dimensions for pho- tographic plates are 178 mm X 229 mm (7 inches X 9 inches; outlined on this page). Single-page text-figures should be drafted for reproduction as single col- umn (82 mm; 3% inches) or full page (178 mm; 7 inches) width, but arrangements can be made to publish text-figures that must be larger. Authors must provide three (3) printed copies of the text and accompanying illustrative material. Authors are strongly encouraged to prepare their manuscripts on word processors, as this considerably expedites publication. On initial sub- mission, however, only printed copies of the manuscript should be sent; the disk copy should be retained so that revisions can be made after the review process. The text and line-drawings may be reproduced xerographically, but glossy prints at publication size must be supplied for all half-tone illustrations and photographic plates. These prints should be identified clearly on the back. Referenced publication titles must be spelled out in their entirety. Particular care should be given to reference format. Consult the “Instructions for Authors,” referred to above, as several changes have been introduced with that issue. Ci- tations of illustrations within the text bear initial capitals (e. g., Plate, Text-figure), but citations of illustrations in other works appear in lower-case letters (e.g., plate, text-figure). Format of systematic descriptions should follow that in any recent number of the Bulletins. Original plate photomounts should have oversize cardboard backing and strong tracing paper overlays. These photomounts should be retained by the author until the manuscript has been formally accepted for publication. The approximate position of each text-figure in the text should be indicated. Explanations of plates and text-figures should follow the References Cited.
