  The 
  holotype 
  is 
  broken. 
  The 
  external 
  posterior 
  area 
  is 
  encrusted 
  with 
  Bryozoa 
  as 
  are 
  tne 
  

   dorsal 
  and 
  ventral 
  margins 
  of 
  the 
  interior. 
  Carpenter 
  originally 
  had 
  two 
  right 
  valves. 
  

  

  Holotype. 
  — 
  U. 
  S. 
  National 
  Aluseum, 
  592441 
  (Cp. 
  1062). 
  The 
  specimen 
  was 
  on 
  the 
  original 
  

   Carpenter 
  glass 
  mount 
  with 
  the 
  original 
  label 
  "Type 
  Cp. 
  1062 
  Plectodon 
  scaber, 
  Cpr. 
  Catalina 
  

   Is. 
  Cooper." 
  The 
  number 
  coincides 
  with 
  the 
  original 
  number 
  of 
  the 
  State 
  [California] 
  Col- 
  

   lection 
  which 
  adds 
  to 
  the 
  authenticity 
  as 
  type.

  It 
  seems 
  as 
  though 
  Sowerby's 
  statement-^ 
  as 
  to 
  the 
  type 
  of 
  the 
  genus 
  is 
  definite 
  

   enough 
  for 
  a 
  type 
  designation. 
  It 
  is 
  unnecessary 
  to 
  induce 
  the 
  designation 
  of 
  Stoliczka,
