NO. 3579 PORTLAND CATALOGUE — REHDER 7 



187 "Three fine specimens of Tellina, viz. . . . cruentae, S. 

 Knorr VI. 12. 1. all very rare." 

 Sanguinolaria cruenta (Lightfoot, 1786) 



Tellina cruentae [Lightfoot, 1786], p. 10. 

 Tellina operculata Gmelin, 1791, p. 3235. 

 Tellina semiplanata Roding, 1798, p. 186. 



Abbott (1954, p. 439), following Dall (1921, p. 99), erroneously used 

 this name for T. sanguinolenta Gmelin, in which he has been followed 

 by Shikama (1964, pi. 50, f. 3). 



An examination of Knorr's figure shows that the name cruenta 

 should be applied to the large, more elongate and unicolored species 

 formerly known as S. operculata Gmelin, inhabiting the southern 

 shores of the Caribbean, from Nicaragua south to Brazil. 



It is not the Eastern Pacific *§. bertini Pilsbry and Lowe, as Keen 

 (1958, p. 188) thinks possible. 



See lot 1360, wherein Lightfoot spells the trivial name correctly: 

 cruenta.
