Tegula brunnea (Philippi) 
Plate 36, figures 3 and 4 
Trochus brunneus Philippi (1842-1855), p. 300, pl. 43, fig. 19. 
Chlorostoma brunneum, Carpenter (1863), p. 652; Pilsbry (1889), p. 170, 
pl. 27, figs. 36-38; Arnold, R. (1903), p. 324. 
Tegula brunnea, Keep (1911), p. 236. 
Description.—This species was described by Pilsbry (1889) as follows: 
‘*Shell imperforate, conical, solid, russet-yellow, brown, orange-colored or 
deep crimson; spire conic; sutures deeply impressed; whorls about 7, convex, 
smooth, obliquely lightly striate, the last sometimes obsoletely undulated or 
plicate below the suture; base depressed, deeply concave in the center; aperture 
very oblique; columella one or two toothed near the base; umbilical callus 
white; place’ of the umbilicus deeply excavated.’’ 
This is a very common intertidal species along the beaches both 
north and south of the Golden Gate. Not known to occur in San 
Francisco Bay. According to Carpenter, it also occurs at the Farallon 
Islands. No specimens were obtained by the Survey. The specimen 
figured came from Bolinas Bay, Marin County, California. 
Range.—Cape Mendocino to San Diego, California (Cooper). 
Tegula funebrale (A. Adams) 
Plate 36, figures la and 1b 
Chlorostoma funebrale A. Adams (1854), p. 316; Carpenter (1863), p. 652; 
Pilsbry (1889), p. 170, pl. 28; figs. 42-44; Wood and Raymond (1891), 
p- 57; Arnold, R. (1903), p. 325. 
Trochus moestus Jonas, Carpenter (1856a), p. 212. 
Tegula funebrale, Keep (1911), p. 235. 
Description.—This species was described by Pilsbry (1889) as follows: 
‘“«This species is similar to C. gallina in form and characters of the aperture. 
It is lusterless, purple or black, the apex usually eroded, orange-colored; the 
teeth of the columella are white; and there is never a yellowish streak at the 
base, as in the var. tineta of the last species (C. gallina). The whorls are 
spirally lirate, sometimes smooth except on the base, sometimes strongly lirate 
above. The suture is margined below by an impressed line, and by elevated, 
folicaceous incremental lamellae. This last feature may almost always be 
detected, although sometimes but very slightly developed.’’ 
Length, 7 to 36 mm. 
Occurrence.—At Bonita Point (4)*. 
This common intertidal species is associated with the preceding 
one. Carpenter (1863) and subsequent writers have reported this 
mollusk from San Francisco. It is represented in the Survey collec- 
tions by four living specimens taken along the beach at Bonita Point.
