Synonymy: — Anomia psittacea Gmelin. 



1145 Ostrea virginica Gmelin. 



Introduced into the Victoria Arm, and at San Francisco. 



1146 Pecten rubidus Hinds. 



"Usually considered as a variety of Pecten hastatus;" not rare 

 near Victoria. 



1147 Pecten ( Pseudamusium ) vancouverensis Whiteaves. 

 Forward Inlet, Quatsino Sound (Dawson); Departure bay 



(Taylor). 



1148 Anodonta nuttalliana Lea. 



Vancouver Isl., to Mexico; Willamette river, Idaho. The fol* 

 lowing varieties are not mentioned by Taylor: 



1149 Variety Calif orniensis Lea. See Cooper, Zoe 3:23. 



1150 Variety Idahoensis Henry Hemphill. 



More oval than other forms of West American species; in pro- 

 portions of its length and height and its rounded posterior out- 

 line, it resembles A. calif orniensis; in its breadth between valves, 

 and the smaller and more pointed anterior end of the shell, a - id 

 more especially in the less developed dorsal prolongation of the 

 valves it resembles A. oregonensis; in color and lines of growth 

 it agrees well with both; in the young state the shell is higher 

 in proportion to its length, while the wings or dorsal prolonga- 

 tion of the valves are a little more produced. Length from ante- 

 rior to posterior end 2 *4 , height from dorsal to ventral margin 

 1 % , breadth between valves % inches. 



Spokane river, above Post Falls, Idaho. — HH Zoe 1:328-9, 

 337, t 10 f 3-4. 



1158 Miodon prolongatus Carpenter. 

 Stearns, U S Nat Mus pr 13:217, t 16 f 7, 9. 



Taylor records this as rare at Victoria, Departure bay and at 

 Salt River Spring Island; Whitgreaves reports it abundant at 

 "Dolomite Narrows," etc., further north. 



1159 Astarte compacta Carpenter. 



Puget Sound (Kennerley), one specimen. Carpenter suggested 

 that this may prove identical with A. compressa, a European spe- 

 cies. 



1160 Pythina rugifera Carpenter. 

 Puget Sound (Kennerley). 



1161 Cardium nuttalli Conrad. 

 Largely consumed by Indians (Taylor). 



1162 Cardium calif orniense Deshayes. 



Ribs often nearly 50 in number, interior of shell frequently 

 more or less tinted with rose; C. blandum is considered as a syno- 

 nym, but Taylor speaks of two varieties, and some writer may de- 

 cide they are distinct.
