The only specimen of this species recognized in the Eureka District 
collection is from the Upper Devonian horizon; it is a silicified shell pre- 
serving the two valves united, and below the average size of full grown 
individuals from the Hamilton Group of New York and Canada; there 
appears to be little question of its specific identity with them. 
In the collection of Devonian fossils from the Mackenzie River, Brit- 
ish America, Mr. F. B. Meek recognized this species (Trans. Chicago Acad. 
Sei., vol. i, p. 100), and he also states that it occurs on Porcupine River, a 
tributary of the Yukon, longitude 140° W., latitude 67° N. 
Formation and locality—Upper Devonian, at The Gate, northwest of 
Eureka, Nevada.

This species is a rare form in Nevada, having been found but sparingly 
at one locality. At the East it has a wide geographic range in the State 
of New York, and is also found in the States of Virginia, Maryland, and 
Indiana. It ranges vertically from the Schoharie grit up into the Hamilton 
Group. 
Formation and locality—Lower horizon of the Devonian limestone, 
Lone Mountain, northwest of the Eureka District, Nevada.
