  The 
  figure 
  included 
  by 
  Oldroyd 
  does 
  not 
  seem 
  to 
  have 
  the 
  anterior 
  portion 
  of 
  the 
  outer 
  

   lip 
  elevated 
  so 
  much 
  as 
  C. 
  attonsa 
  does. 
  The 
  discrepancy 
  may 
  be 
  due 
  to 
  the 
  position 
  of 
  the 
  

   shell 
  in 
  the 
  photograph. 
  

  

  The 
  holotype 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  is 
  in 
  the 
  U. 
  S. 
  National 
  Museum.

  The 
  holotype 
  bears 
  the 
  label 
  "Puget 
  Sound 
  Kennerley." 
  This 
  label 
  is 
  verified 
  by 
  the 
  

   original 
  description. 
  As 
  Keen 
  pointed 
  out 
  Dall's 
  distribution 
  of 
  San 
  Diego, 
  California, 
  

   should 
  be 
  modified. 
  The 
  type 
  locality 
  is 
  Puget 
  Sound. 
  

  

  There 
  are 
  microscopic 
  vi'avy 
  spiral 
  lines 
  over 
  the 
  entire 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  shell. 
  These 
  

   are 
  not 
  revealed 
  in 
  the 
  photograph 
  of 
  the 
  holotype. 
  The 
  brownish 
  epidermis 
  is 
  lighter 
  in 
  

   the 
  central 
  area. 
  An 
  elongate 
  light 
  spot 
  is 
  seen 
  in 
  the 
  photograph. 
  This 
  is 
  a 
  glue 
  spot 
  on 
  

   the 
  shell 
  and 
  not 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  specimen.

  of

  from
