   (Identified 
  by 
  Philip 
  P. 
  Carpenter) 
  

  

  The 
  following 
  list 
  was 
  compiled 
  in 
  1945 
  by 
  Dr. 
  Fritz 
  Haas, 
  Curator 
  of 
  Lower 
  

   Invertebrates. 
  The 
  nomenclature 
  is 
  that 
  used 
  by 
  Carpenter. 
  Information 
  regard- 
  

   ing 
  locality 
  and 
  number 
  of 
  specimens 
  was 
  added 
  by 
  the 
  author 
  in 
  January 
  1951. 
  

  

  The 
  Chicago 
  Natural 
  History 
  Museum 
  (then 
  Field 
  Columbian 
  Museum 
  of 
  

   Chicago) 
  purchased 
  in 
  1895 
  a 
  first 
  set 
  of 
  duplicates 
  of 
  the 
  "Philip 
  Carpenter 
  

   Collection 
  of 
  Shells" 
  from 
  the 
  Peter 
  Redpath 
  Museum, 
  McGill 
  University. 
  The 
  

   collection 
  consisted 
  of 
  4039 
  specimens 
  (Haas, 
  personal 
  communication, 
  Dec. 
  27, 
  

   1944; 
  see 
  Haas, 
  1944, 
  and 
  anonymous, 
  1895). 
  

  

  No 
  types 
  were 
  found 
  among 
  this 
  material. 
  Many 
  of 
  the 
  specimens 
  had 
  early 
  

   Smithsonian 
  Institution 
  labels 
  and 
  were 
  collected 
  by 
  Jewett, 
  Xantus, 
  Swan, 
  and 
  

   j. 
  G. 
  Cooper. 
  The 
  collection 
  is 
  important 
  in 
  that 
  it 
  is 
  a 
  primary 
  source 
  of 
  Car- 
  

   penter 
  identifications 
  of 
  specimens 
  made 
  by 
  the 
  original 
  collectors. 
  Where 
  the 
  

   type 
  has 
  not 
  been 
  found, 
  as 
  in 
  Turrit 
  ella 
  coo 
  peri, 
  the 
  shells 
  would 
  be* 
  available 
  

   from 
  which 
  to 
  choose 
  a 
  neotype. 
  The 
  collection 
  would 
  also 
  furnish 
  additional 
  

   specimens 
  of 
  original 
  material 
  by 
  which 
  one 
  is 
  able 
  to 
  obtain 
  a 
  better 
  concept 
  of 
  

   what 
  Carpenter 
  considered 
  the 
  species 
  to 
  be 
  if 
  only 
  the 
  holotype 
  or 
  a 
  few 
  syntypes 
  

   were 
  available. 
  The 
  list 
  is 
  inserted 
  to 
  give 
  the 
  present 
  location 
  of 
  source 
  material 
  

   for 
  those 
  who 
  are 
  interested 
  in 
  comprehensive 
  work 
  on 
  species 
  or 
  genera. 
  

  

  The 
  spelling, 
  abbreviations, 
  and 
  punctuation 
  of 
  the 
  specific 
  names 
  and 
  locali- 
  

   ties 
  are 
  given 
  as 
  on 
  the 
  original 
  labels.
