PILSBRYS NAMES 



Cuban collectors have sold or exchanged a vast number of specimens under 

 these manuscript names. Many of these names will reach the printed page 

 unless care is taken to check whether or not these names have been published 

 with descriptions. See C. G. Aguayo and Miguel L. Jaume, 1950, Bibliografia 

 General de Don Carlos de la Torre y Huerta, Agronia, Habana, Cuba, 1950, 

 pp. 119-123. 



Note no. 2 



In August 1944, Pilsbry published the "Molluscan Fossils from the Rio 

 Pachitea and Vicinity in Eastern Peru" (Proc. ANSP 96: 137-153, figs. 1-3, pi. 

 9-11). In 1947, this same paper, translated into Spanish, appeared in the 

 Boletin del Museo de Historiana Natural "Javier Prado," Lima, Peru, 1946 [1947] 

 Ano. 10, pp. 32-57, pi. 1-3. 



As in note no. 3, this is only a repubHcation and the "nueva especie" should 

 date from 1944 where the original descriptions occurred. Three specific names 

 were misspelled. 



Note no. 3 



In April 1935, in the Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila. 87: 7-21, pi. 2-5, Pilsbry 

 and Olsson published upon the "Tertiary Freshwater Mollusks of the Magda- 

 lena Embayment, Colombia." Several new species were described along with 

 a few new genera. In December 1941, the same paper appeared in Spanish in 

 the Revista de la Acad. Colombiana de Ciencias Exacta, Fisicas y Naturales 4: 

 410-417, without figures. Dr. Olsson has written to us that this publication was 

 pubhshed without their knowledge.
