  This 
  subspecies 
  was 
  described 
  as 
  above 
  by 
  Carpenter 
  (1865). 
  Apparently 
  Dall 
  forgot 
  

   about 
  the 
  description 
  when 
  he 
  made 
  tlie 
  statement 
  (1919) 
  that 
  a 
  description 
  had 
  not 
  been 
  

   published 
  by 
  Carpenter. 
  Ball's 
  notes 
  were 
  no 
  more 
  complete 
  than 
  Carpenter's, 
  so 
  that 
  Ball's 
  

   name 
  does 
  not 
  apply 
  as 
  author 
  of 
  the 
  subspecies. 
  Tlie 
  Icctotype 
  is 
  figured 
  herein 
  for 
  the 
  first 
  

   time. 
  Bormann 
  figured 
  a 
  specimen 
  (1946) 
  from 
  White's 
  Point, 
  Los 
  Angeles 
  County, 
  Cali- 
  

   fornia, 
  which 
  had 
  been 
  compared 
  with 
  the 
  holotype 
  by 
  Rehder 
  (in 
  Bormann, 
  1946). 
  

  

  There 
  are 
  seven 
  specimens 
  (paratypes) 
  in 
  the 
  original 
  group 
  in 
  the 
  U. 
  S. 
  National 
  Mu- 
  

   seum, 
  no. 
  lS528bi'>o 
  other 
  than 
  the 
  one 
  labelled 
  "type." 
  The 
  label 
  includes 
  "Neeah 
  Bay." 
  The 
  

   type 
  is 
  evidently 
  a 
  lectotype 
  selected 
  by 
  Ball. 
  

  

  All 
  the 
  specimens, 
  lectotype 
  and 
  paratypes, 
  have 
  tlie 
  apical 
  whorls 
  worn. 
  The 
  suite 
  in- 
  

   cludes 
  young 
  and 
  mature 
  individuals. 
  Some 
  are 
  more 
  slender 
  than 
  the 
  "type," 
  but 
  all 
  have 
  

   the 
  coarse 
  longitudinal 
  lines 
  of 
  growth 
  and 
  deep 
  stiuarish 
  pits. 
  The 
  labrum 
  is 
  not 
  thickened 
  

   on 
  the 
  immature 
  forms. 
  

  

  The 
  measurements 
  which 
  Ball 
  gave 
  (1919) 
  are 
  not 
  those 
  of 
  the 
  lectotyi>e 
  but 
  of 
  a 
  more 
  

   elongate 
  shell 
  (see

  The 
  subspecies 
  were 
  never 
  mentioned 
  in 
  literature 
  by 
  Carpenter. 
  

  

  The 
  holotype 
  of 
  O. 
  beta 
  was 
  figured 
  by 
  Bormann 
  (1946, 
  pi. 
  4, 
  fig.

  O. 
  interjos.m 
  minor 
  

   was 
  also 
  a 
  manuscript 
  museum 
  label 
  name 
  used 
  by 
  Carpenter. 
  It 
  was 
  described 
  by 
  Ball 
  (1919, 
  

   p. 
  334) 
  but 
  not 
  illustrated. 
  Bormann 
  (1946, 
  PI.

  figured 
  the

  the 
  brief 
  remarks 
  which 
  constitute 
  the 
  only 
  data 
  that 
  Carpenter 
  published 
  

   on 
  the 
  subspecies,

  the 
  names 
  of 
  numerous 
  localities
