No. 2. —LIST OF SHELL-BEARING MOLLUSCA OF 
FRENCHMAN’S BAY, MAINE. 
BY DWIGHT BLANEY. 
The following one hundred and twenty-seven species and five vari¬ 
eties were collected during the summers of 1901, 1902, 1903, and 
1904 by dredging and collecting on the shores. All species were 
found alive unless otherwise stated. Many species were also obtained 
by examination of the stomachs of haddock caught in the Bay. As 
many as thirty-eight species were found in one lot of ten stomachs 
in June, 1903. 
The list has been arranged in the order given in Dali’s Bulletin 
37, U. S. national museum, and only such synonyms have been added 
as will suffice to identify the species to the student. 
I am under obligation to Dr. W. II. Dali, Prof. A. E. Verrill, 
Miss Katherine J. Bush, Prof. Edward S. Morse, and Mr. C. W. 
Johnson for the identification of various species.
