yard and Buzzard’s Bay, 20 to 25 fathoms, rare; Casco Bay, 15 to 95 
fathoms, not common; Bay of Fundy, 10 to 100 fathoms, frequent.

Connecticut to Gulf of Saint Lawrence. Buzzard’s Bay and Vineyard 
Sound, 5 to 15 fathoms, not uncommon; off Gay Head, 19 fathoms, soft 
mud; off Block Island, 29 fathoms, sandy mud; common in Massa- 
chusetts Bay, Casco Bay, and Bay of Fundy, 3 to 60 fathoms. Halifax 
(Willis). Gulf of Saint Lawrence, at Gaspé (Whiteaves). Gardiner’s 
Bay, Long Island (S. Smith). Stonington (Linsley). Off New London, 
Connecticut (T. M. Prudden). Sandy Hook, New Jersey (Fergu- 
son). Fossil in the Post-Pliocene at Montreal, Canada (Dawson). A 
related species, C. wquilaterata Conrad (H.C. Lea, sp.) occurs in the 
Miocene of Virginia. ; 
This species was undoubtedly confounded with C. decussata (Montagu, 
sp.) by both Gould and Stimpson. The genuine decussata is quite com- 
mon in Casco Bay, Bay of Fundy, and Gulf of Saint Lawrence, and is 
usually associated in those waters with C. glandula. It is a northern, 
and common European species, and is also recorded from the North 
Pacific coast of America by Dr. P. P. Carpenter. It also occurs in 
Greenland (Mérch).
