  Grant 
  and 
  Gale 
  made 
  a 
  feasible 
  suggestion 
  in 
  uniting 
  M. 
  newcombei 
  Dall 
  (1919), 
  also 
  

   from 
  Vancouver 
  Island, 
  with 
  M. 
  crebricostata 
  Carpenter. 
  The 
  figure 
  of 
  the 
  holotype 
  of 
  

   M. 
  nezi'CODibci 
  is 
  similar 
  to 
  the 
  figure 
  given 
  by 
  Dall 
  and 
  Bartsch 
  of 
  M. 
  crebricostata.

  A

  the

  description 
  was 
  published 
  by 
  Oldroyd 
  (1927,

  The 
  follow- 
  

   ing 
  should 
  be 
  added

  complete

  The 
  type 
  material 
  in 
  the 
  Redpath 
  Museum, 
  labelled 
  type 
  in 
  Carpenter's 
  handwriting 
  on 
  

   Carpenter's 
  special 
  glass 
  mount, 
  consists 
  of 
  9 
  specimens, 
  one 
  of 
  which 
  is 
  not 
  M. 
  interfossa. 
  

   Figures 
  of 
  two 
  of 
  those 
  specimens 
  are 
  included 
  herein. 
  Carpenter's 
  first 
  mention 
  of 
  the 
  

   species 
  (1864b, 
  p. 
  628) 
  stated 
  that 
  there 
  were 
  "several 
  dead 
  specimens." 
  

  

  The 
  shells 
  are 
  light 
  yellow 
  or 
  brownish. 
  The 
  columella 
  and 
  labrum 
  are 
  smooth. 
  

  

  There 
  is 
  also 
  a 
  specimen 
  in 
  the 
  U. 
  S. 
  National 
  Museum, 
  no. 
  22818, 
  labelled 
  type. 
  With 
  

   the 
  two 
  suites 
  of 
  syntypes, 
  it 
  is 
  advisable 
  for 
  a 
  lectotype 
  to 
  be 
  selected. 
  Such 
  a 
  selection 
  will 
  

   depend 
  on 
  the 
  results 
  of 
  Bartsch's 
  work 
  in 
  his 
  monograph 
  of 
  West 
  Coast 
  turrid 
  species. 
  

  

  The 
  Mitroniorpha 
  filosa 
  barbarensis 
  Arnold 
  (1907a, 
  pi. 
  11, 
  fig. 
  1; 
  1907b, 
  pi. 
  LVII, 
  fig. 
  

   1), 
  which 
  Grant 
  and 
  Gale 
  indicated 
  were 
  the 
  same 
  form 
  as 
  this 
  species, 
  does 
  not 
  belong 
  to 
  

   the 
  same 
  genus 
  if 
  the 
  illustration 
  of 
  Arnold's 
  shell 
  is 
  correct. 
  M. 
  interfossa 
  is 
  not 
  a 
  Mitro- 
  

   niorpha, 
  as 
  thought 
  by 
  Grant 
  and 
  Gale. 
  The 
  dift'erence 
  in 
  shape 
  is 
  readily 
  seen 
  if 
  the 
  figures 
  

   of 
  tlie 
  types 
  of 
  M. 
  interfos.m 
  are 
  compared 
  with 
  that 
  of 
  M. 
  filosa, 
  the 
  type 
  species 
  of 
  

   Mitroniorpha. 
  

  

  The 
  resemblance 
  to 
  M 
  itntmorplia 
  tisf^cra, 
  whirii 
  Grant 
  and 
  (iale 
  suggested, 
  is 
  only 
  

   superficial 
  as 
  may 
  be 
  seen 
  by 
  cniiiiiariiig 
  tiie 
  figinx's 
  lierein 
  of 
  tlie 
  types 
  of 
  both. 
  The 
  heavy 
  

   ribbing

  pits 
  forme<l 
  by 
  the 
  intersection 
  of 
  nodosi' 
  ril)s 
  ])resents 
  sculpture 
  that 
  looks 
  

   similar, 
  but 
  the 
  shape 
  of 
  tlie 
  l)ody 
  wliori, 
  aperture, 
  and 
  spire 
  are 
  quite 
  difi'erent 
  in 
  both 
  

   species.
