 CAMAROPHORIA, King, 1844, Ann. and Mag. 

 Nat. Hist., vol. 14, p. 313. [Ety. kamara, 

 an arched chamber; phoreo, I carry.] 

 Subtrigonal, convex longitudinally ; 

 mesial fold and sinus; beak acute, 

 more or less incurved, small fissure be- 

 neath ; no area or deltidium ; plicated, 

 impunctate, articulating by teeth and 

 sockets; dental plates in the ventral 

 valve, conjoined at their dorsal mar- 

 gins, forming a trough-shaped process 

 affixed to a low, medio-longitudinal 

 plate ; the space between the sockets 

 in the dorsal valve is occupied by a 

 small, cardinal, muscular protuberance, 

 on either side of which two slender 

 processes curve upward ; from beneath 

 the cardinal process a vertical mesial 

 septum, a third or more of the length 

 of the valve, supporting along its upper 

 edge a spatula-shaped process, dilated 

 toward its free extremity, and projected 

 with a curve to near the center of the 

 shell. Type C. schlotheimi.
