[TAYLOR] MARINE MOLLUSCA 43 
Clayoquot last autumn, I do not know of any other record of its occur- 
rence in this province, and I have never taken it myself. 
PSAMMOBIA, Lamarck. 
80. PSAMMOBIA RUBRORADIATA, Nuttall. 
This species seems to be rare, or at any rate difficult to find. It was 
represented in the collections of Kennerley and Swan by dead shells, 
and single valves have been found in many localities on all our coasts 
from Victoria to the Queen Charlotte Islands. I have not seen living 
specimens, but I believe that Dr. Newcombe found a few at Comox and 
at Clayoquot. |

Rept. Brit. Assoc., 1863, p. 639 (August, 1864); and Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., series 3, 
vol. xiv., p. 423 (1864). 
Found by Dr. Dawson in several northern localities, —Quatsino Sound, 
Queen Charlotte Sound and Queen Charlotte Islands. Also by Dr. 
Newcombe at Clayoquot Sound. A few specimens were kindly given to 
me some years ago by Capt. Clarke, who had dredged them near Comox. 
I have not seen any specimens from Victoria or Nanaimo. 
ANGULUS, Muhlfeldt. 
82. ANGULUS MODESTUS, Carpenter. 
Rept. Brit. Assoc., 1863, p. 639 (August, 1864); and Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 
1865, p. 56; var. = A. obtusus, Carpenter. 
This little shell is common in sand between tides, and is sometimes 
found in deeper water. Dr, Dawson took it at the north of Vancouver 
Island, but not near the Queen Charlotte Islands, Dr. Newcombe found 
it at Clayoquot, and it is abundant at Victoria, Departure Bay and 
Comox. 
83. ANGULUS VARIEGATUS, Carpenter.

vol. xiv., p. 424 (1864). 
This species was one of Swan’s additions to the Vancouver list, and 
it was stated by him to be “rare.” Only a single specimen has been 
found here since Swan’s time, and that has been recorded by Mr. 
Whiteaves as “a fully grown living specimen,” taken by Dr. Dawson at 
Quatsino Sound in thirty to fifty fathoms. (Trans. Roy. Soc. Canada, 
1886.) The record of A. variegatus in Mr. Whiteaves’s earlier paper (in
