A complete, annotated listing of all primary and secondary type specimens of gastropod mollusks (exclusive of opisthobranchs and pulmonates) in the collection of the Division of Invertebrate Zoology at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) (as of December 31, 1999) is presented. Supplementary listings for bivalves and opisthobranch gastropods (previously covered in Part 1) are also given. This catalog includes 1309 type lots, 18 lectotype designations, and illustrations for 12 previously inadequately illustrated type specimens and five species never before illustrated. New synonymy information is given for nine species, one species is shown to be a valid name, one new replacement name is introduced, and one neotype is suppressed with rediscovery of type material. An appendix of AMNH specimens previously incorrectly cited as types is also given. An index of genera and species is included for each class and subclass.
INTRODUCTION
The Division of Invertebrate Zoology (formerly the Department of Invertebrates, in part) at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) currently houses a collection of over 300,000 cataloged lots (3.5 million specimens) of Recent mollusks. Per ICZN Recommendation 72F (ICZN, 1999: 79), all of the types are housed separately from the main body of the collection. This allows for a greater level of security than can be maintained in a large, general collection area.
This catalog is the fifth in a series of comprehensive listings of all the type material in the Division's collection and is the second listing of Mollusca. It is also an update and expansion of Richards and Old's (1969, in part) unpublished but widely distributed list, which contained many inaccuracies and omissions. Included in this catalog are all AMNH holotype, lectotype, neotype, paratype, paralectotype, and syntype specimens of Gastropoda (exclusive of Opisthobranchia and Pulmonata). A total of 938 species with valid types in AMNH are treated herein, with listings for 143 holotype, 56 lectotype, 2 neotype, 949 paratype, 84 paralectotype, and 75 syntype AMNH lots. Appendices containing taxa described subsequent to publication of Part 1 (Boyko and Sage, 1996) are included for Opisthobranchia (1 species) and Bivalvia (2 species). An additional appendix lists specimens previously considered types, but which are either invalid types (4 species) or exemplars of infrasubspecific taxa (9 species).
The value of a published catalog is apparent when the number of type specimens that have been transferred to this institution from other sources is considered. Very often no published record of these transfers is ever made, especially for species coming from private collections such as those listed below. In the case of several lots, types were published as having been given to the American Museum, but subsequent investigation indicated that the specimens were never deposited. Other members of type series with representatives in the AMNH have been subject to transfer between institutions over time; for these, the most recent known repositories are listed as well as the most recent catalog numbers used to identify type lots in other institutions.
The majority of the type specimens included in this catalog come from a few key sources. The two most important pre-1900 collections are those of John C. Jay (38 lots) and William A. Haines (22 lots). The Jay Collection, purchased for $10,000 in 1874 by Catherine L. Wolfe, was donated to the AMNH; it contains type specimens of species described by Jay and others, such as C. B. Adams, from whom Jay traded or purchased specimens. There has been some difficulty in identifying Jay's type specimens, because he renumbered all the species listed in his publications as well as his type specimens between 1839 and 1850; this can be seen in the entries for Jay's taxa herein. The Haines Collection, in part, was donated by Haines; the remainder was purchased from his son in 1895. Haines described very few species himself but had many type specimens from others, such as, again, C. B. Adams. For more information on these and other large collections that have been incorporated into the AMNH Recent mollusk collection, see Richards and Old (1969).
More recent sources of type material included in this catalog are the AMNH Belgian Congo Expedition of 1909–1915, with many new species collected by Herbert Lang and James Chapin and described by Pilsbry (1919) and Pilsbry and Bequaert (1927) (52 lots); the Crawford and Jean Cate Collection (86 lots, mostly ovulids, triviids, and cowries); the Helen DuShane Collection (80 lots, mostly epitoniids); significant donations by A. J. da Motta (43 lots, primarily cone shells), James McLean (48 lots), and Emilio Rolán (175 lots, cones and micromollusks); and the Gordon Nowell-Usticke Collection (129 lots), which has been discussed in detail by M. J. Faber (1988, 1995). Numerous type specimens (93 lots) have also been placed in the AMNH collection through the research of William K. Emerson, Curator of Mollusks from 1955 to 1995, and now Curator Emeritus.
The AMNH collection of Recent noninsect invertebrates is organized by phylum and “superphylum” (Protozoa). Each taxonomic grouping is given a separate series of catalog numbers. As a result of this system of numbering, a muricid may have the same catalog number as a decapod crustacean, but the specimens cannot be confused because of the taxonomic distinction between phyla.
Each potential type lot was compared with the original description and figures to verify type status, confirm locality and collection data, and remove any specimens from the type collection that are not types. The publication of this catalog fulfills ICZN Recommendation 72F.4, which states that all museums holding type specimens have the responsibility of making a published catalog of these types available to the scientific community (ICZN, 1999: 79).
This catalog is arranged in alphabetical order by genus and species within the subclass. An index is provided that gives a genus and species-level list within each subclass. This catalog largely follows the format of Boyko and Sage (1996) in including detailed information on current synonymy and generic placement of all species listed. A systematic list of current familial placement for all taxa (by original genus) is also included as appendix 4 and follows Vaught (1989) with few modifications.
One critical area addressed in this catalog is the ambiguous type designations and other type concept problems introduced by Gordon Nowell-Usticke in his papers. Usticke used the terms variety (“var.”), form, and subspecies essentially interchangeably and, as pointed out by Faber (1988: 68), because of this it cannot be said that Usticke expressly proposed names for most of his taxa as “varieties” or “forms.” A very few of Usticke's taxa were clearly described infrasubspecifically, and these are listed in the gastropod appendix herein. In his first paper, Usticke (1959) unambiguously designated the “pictured” specimen for each new species or subspecies as holotype. However, Usticke's subsequent works (1968, 1969) did not include any holotype designations and, therefore, all specimens from those papers are syntypes. Usticke (1971) published measurements of all of his holotypes, which, in most cases, correspond to the figured specimens. The figure caption numbers used by Usticke in his 1968, 1969, and 1971 (but not 1959) publications correspond to his catalog numbers. Because of the difficulties in recognizing virtually all of Usticke's species and correctly applying type designations to individual specimens, we have chosen to designate lectotypes for most of the Usticke taxa that have not been so treated to date (17 species). We use “Usticke” rather than “Nowell-Usticke” to refer to this author because the former appellation is what he used to refer to himself in his own papers.
Various problems encountered during this research led to other taxonomic decisions regarding type designations. In the case of Somatogyrus crassilabris Walker, 1915, we designate a USNM specimen as lectotype in order to resolve the synonymy and homonymy of this taxon with S. crassilabris Hinckley, 1915. The rediscovery of type material for Cypraea semiplota Mighels, 1845, allows us to suppress the “neoholotype” designated for that species by Johnson (1949). The species-level name Chondropoma (Chondropomium) clenchi Pilsbry, 1933, is found to be a junior homonym of C. (Chondropomedes) ernesti clenchi Aguayo, 1932, and a replacement name is introduced. We reexamine the status of Conus ustickei Miller in Usticke, 1959, and conclude that it is the valid name for the taxon known previously as C. bifasciatus Sowerby III, 1857–1858. We also present new synonymy information for nine species: Anachis guildingii teres Usticke, 1969; A. mcgintyi Usticke, 1959; A. subcostulata subcincta Usticke, 1969; Bursa corrugata lineata Usticke, 1959; B. cubaniana intermedia Usticke, 1959; Pyrene (Columbella) nodulosa Usticke, 1959; Terebra hertleini Bratcher and Burch, 1970; T. jacquelinae Bratcher and Burch, 1970; and the infrasubspecific Turbo petholatus var. humerosus Smith, 1907. Eighteen specimens are figured, including 12 previously inadequately illustrated by line drawings (e.g., Dolium melanostomum Jay, 1839) and five that appear never to have been illustrated (e.g., Helicina chionea Pilsbry, 1949).
Several species are included for which type (or possible type) specimens should exist at the AMNH, but which cannot be traced in the collection or the records. Most of the specimens were either stated, or implied, to be in collections later transferred to the AMNH, primarily those of Jay and Haines. Some species in this category (e.g., Scaphella macginnorum García and Emerson, 1987) were expressly cited as having been sent to AMNH but were never deposited. Because there is no record of these specimens having arrived here, and they have not been located at other major institutions, it is suspected that they are lost.
Each type listing contains four or five categories of data. Within each genus, specific names are followed by authorship data (author, year description was published, and page and figure numbers). The next category indicates the specific kind of type(s) in the collection, as well as AMNH catalog number(s), the number of specimens in each lot, and whether a lot is alcohol preserved. The locality category contains all pertinent collection data, including county names for U.S. locations when that information can be determined. The collector category indicates the name(s) of the collector(s) of the specimen(s) and the date(s) of collection, if those data are known. The remarks category contains information as to provenance of specimens, location of other types in the series (all of the members of each type series are listed insofar as they could be located), current synonymy and/or generic placement, and additional comments.

Amoria dampieria Weaver, 1960: 3, figs. 6–7
Paralectotype: AMNH 110169 (1 specimen).
Locality: 32 fathoms, Legendre Island, Dampier Archipelago, Western Australia, Australia, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Hawaiian–Western Australian Expedition on R/V “Davina,” June 1960.
Remarks: ex Weaver Collection (“paratype #7”). The type series consists of “over a dozen living specimens” collected by the Hawaiian–Western Australian Expedition in May and June 1960 (Weaver, 1963: 28), although only a single specimen was explicitly cited by Weaver (1960: 3). Weaver (1963: 31) stated that BPBM 205554 was the holotype. Because Weaver (1960: 3) did not designate a holotype, Weaver's (1963) action constituted a lectotype designation. Additional paralectotypes are AM C.64020, C.64028, BPBM 205557–205559, WAM 16–61, 5855, and in the collection of C. Weaver (Weaver, 1963: 30).

Ampullaria angulata Jay, 1836: explanation of pl. 3 [p. 85], fig. 7
Syntype: AMNH 56108.
Locality: “Mexico” (Jay, 1836).
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #2030a (Jay, 1839) and #6740 (Jay, 1850). AMNH 56108 is labeled as “fig d. pl. 3, fig. 7” in Jay's handwriting (fig. 1 herein). The whereabouts of other syntype specimens (if any) are unknown. This taxon is a synonym of A. scalaris d'Orbigny, 1835 (Jay, 1839: 116).
Ampullaria brownii Jay, 1839: 112, pl. 1, fig. 4
Syntype: AMNH 56107.
Locality: “River Amazon” [Brazil] (Jay, 1839).
Collector: Capt. Brown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #6686 (Jay, 1850). AMNH 56107 is labeled as “fig d. type” in Jay's handwriting (fig. 2 herein). The whereabouts of other syntype specimens (if any) are unknown. Although Pain (1960: 430) stated that “I have been able to examine the type of A. brownii Jay,” this statement is not specific as to the specimen examined and thus does not constitute an inadvertent lectotype designation. This species is a synonym of Pomacea (Limnopomus) crassa (Swainson, 1823) (Pain, 1960: 429).
Ampullaria ochracea Jay, 1836: explanation of pl. 3 [p. 85], fig. 8
Syntypes: AMNH 56106 (1 specimen), 56106A (1 specimen).
Locality: “Spanish Maine” (Jay, 1836: 85).
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #2131a (Jay, 1839) and #6731 (Jay, 1850). AMNH 56106 is labeled as “fig d. type” in Jay's handwriting (fig. 3 herein). The whereabouts of other 6 syntypes (fide Jay, 1839: 116) are unknown. This species is a synonym of A. (P.) ampullacea (Linnaeus, 1758) (Sowerby, 1910: 56).
Ampullaria storeria Jay, 1839: 112, pl. 1, fig. 5
?Syntype: AMNH 56110 (1 specimen).
Locality: “River Amazon” [Brazil] (Jay, 1839: 112).
Collector: Capt. Brown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #6736 (Jay, 1850). AMNH 56107 is labeled as “fig d. type” in Jay's handwriting, but Jay (1850) cited #6737 for his specimen(s) of A. storeria. Because of this discrepancy, the AMNH specimen is considered a probable syntype. The whereabouts of other syntype specimens (if any) are unknown.
Anachis berryi Shasky, 1970: 190, fig. 5
Paratypes: AMNH 179304 (2 specimens).
Locality: 3–4 m, 23°26′N, 109°25′W, El Pulmo Reef, Baja California Sur, Mexico, Pacific Ocean.

Anachis guildingii “form” teres Usticke, 1969: 16, pl. 3, fig. 754
Holotype: AMNH 195432.
Locality: Christiansted Harbor, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #754. Although Usticke (1969: 16) cited this taxon as a “form,” he listed it subspecifically in the index and called it “Anachis teres” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. AMNH 195432 is the holotype by monotypy. This taxon is a synonym of Costoanachis hotessieriana (d'Orbigny, 1842) (de Maintenon, personal commun.; new synonymy).
Anachis helenae Costa, 1983: 95–96, figs. 1–3
Paratype: AMNH 213573 (1 specimen).
Locality: 56 m, Amapa Territory, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: E. Rios, May 1, 1968.
Remarks: ex MORG 14.810. The holotype is Coleçao de Moluscos da Universidade Santa Ursula 215, and additional paratypes are Coleçao de Moluscos da Universidade Santa Ursula 237, 238, MORG 14.810a–l, and in the collection of F. Costa (Costa, 1983: 96, 98).
Anachis mcgintyi Usticke, 1959: 67, pl. 3, fig. 15
Holotype: AMNH 198493.
Paratypes: AMNH 198493a (1 specimen), 294359 (2 specimens).
Locality: Altona Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: G. W. N. Usticke.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #752 and #753 (AMNH 198493, 198493a) and Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294359). Usticke (1959: pl. 3, fig. 15) figured both specimens, which contradicted his own statement (1959: vi) that the “holotypes…are pictured.” However, Usticke (1959: 67) explicitly stated, “I designate the darker shell to be the holotype, the lighter a paratype.” Faber (1988: 84) is therefore incorrect in his statement that the type designations are subsequent and invalid. This taxon is a synonym of Costoanachis hotessieriana (d'Orbigny, 1842) (de Maintenon, personal commun.; new synonymy).
Anachis multicostata Usticke, 1969: 16, pl. 3, fig. 755
Lectotype: AMNH 195431.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #755. Although Usticke (1969: 16) gave only a single measurement for this taxon, he indicated that it had been collected in two localities. Later (1971: 13), he indicated that the “holotype” was 6.0 mm long and that the size range for the taxon was “6.0–7.0 mm.” Both of these facts suggest that Usticke inadvertently omitted the lower limit of the size range for the species in his 1969 paper and that he had more than one specimen at the time of description. Usticke (1971: 13) stated that this specimen (now AMNH 195431) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 16) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1971: 13) given size range for the taxon of 6–7 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of Zafrona pulchella (Blainville, 1829) (Faber, 1988: 85; de Maintenon, personal commun.).
Anachis raysutana Smythe, 1985: 29–30, pl. 4, figs. b–c, text figs. 3, 6, 9
Paratypes: AMNH 220729 (1 specimen), 220730 (1 specimen).
Locality: 20°41′N, 58°54′E, North Point (AMNH 220729), 20°27′N, 58°48′E, Umm Rusays (AMNH 220730), Masirah Island, Oman, Indian Ocean.
Collector: K. Smythe and M. Gallagher, Feb. 1982 (AMNH 220729), K. R. Smythe, Jan. 1984 (AMNH 220730).
Remarks: The holotype is BMNH 1984079, and additional paratypes are BMNH 1984080, NMW 1984.047.1–2, ONHM 1984/69/B, and in MNHN, USNM, ZMA, and the collections of D. Bosch and K. Smythe (Smythe, 1985: 30).
Anachis subcostulata “var.” subcincta Usticke, 1969: 16, pl. 3, fig. 744
Lectotype: lost.
Paralectotypes: AMNH 193399 (10 specimens), 193400 (1 specimen), 193401 (2 specimens), 193423 (27 specimens).
Locality: Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda (AMNH 193399), Saint Martins (AMNH 193400), Grenada (AMNH 193401), Krause's Reef, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands (AMNH 193423), Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection. Although Usticke (1969: 16) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “n[ew] s[ub] sp[ecies]” (1969: 16), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Anachis subcincta” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. The specimen figured by Usticke (1969: pl. 3, fig. 744) cannot be located in AMNH and is most likely lost. In the interest of stability, we designate Usticke's figured specimen as lectotype, in order to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The repository of additional paralectotypes (if any) is unknown. This taxon is a synonym of Zafrona pulchella (Blainville, 1829) (de Maintenon, personal commun.; new synonymy).

Holotype: AMNH 153298.
Paratypes: AMNH 155887 (8 specimens), 155904 (1 specimen), 222054 (1 specimen).
Locality: 20°44′N, 105°29′W, Banderas Bay, Nayarit, Mexico, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: J. and H. DuShane, Jan. 12–18, 1969.
Remarks: ex H. DuShane (AMNH 222054). Additional paratypes are in CASIZ, LACM, SDNHM, SU, and TU (Emerson and D'Attilio, 1970b: 90). It is not known if additional paratypes are still in the collection of J. and H. DuShane (Emerson and D'Attilio, 1970b: 90) or if AMNH 222054 represents all the paratypes from that collection. Although AMNH 153298 was cited by Emerson and D'Attilio (1970b: 90) as containing 9 specimens, the specimen figured by them (fig. 6) has been split from that lot (now AMNH 155904). The species was figured by Emerson and D'Attilio (1970b) in figs. 1–2, 4–6, not figs. 1–11 as stated on p. 89.
Aspella paupercula “var.” varians Usticke, 1969: 15, pl. 3, fig. 692 [?sic]
Lectotype: AMNH 186114.
Paralectotype: AMNH 186115.
Locality: Maid Island, Antigua, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #695. Usticke (1969: 15) gave “695” as his catalog number for this taxon, but listed “692” in the figure caption; he later (1971: 12) changed his number (or made another error) for this taxon to “#690.” Although Usticke (1969: 15) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “n[ew] s[ub] sp[ecies]” (1969: 15), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Aspella varians” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. We herein select the specimen figured by Usticke (1969, pl. 3, fig. 692 [?sic]) as lectotype, to permanently fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The repository of additional paralectotypes (if any) is unknown. This taxon is a synonym of Dermomurex (D.) alabastrum (A. Adams, 1864) (Vokes, 1992: 64).

Bailya milleri Usticke, 1959: 67–68, pl. 2, fig. 21
Holotype: AMNH 193772.
Locality: Outer Reefs, Christiansted Harbor, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: G. W. N. Usticke and J. Miller.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #779. Although this species was illustrated by Usticke (1959: pl. 2, fig. 21) with a particularly poor pencil drawing rather than a photograph, there is no confusion as to which specimen is represented, as he had only a single specimen of this taxon at the time of description. AMNH 193772 is therefore the holotype by monotypy and is illustrated with a photograph herein (fig. 4).
Barleeia mexicana Rolán and Crúz-Ábrego, 1998: 3–4, figs. 5–8, 13, 14
Paratype: AMNH 294299 (1 specimen).

Remarks: ex Summers Collection (AMNH 186628, 186629, 213467) and Cate Collection #2755 (AMNH 203879). The holotype was Schilder Collection #8861 and an additional paratype was Schilder Collection #8862 (current repository unknown) (F. Schilder, 1958: 85). Additional paratypes are or were in BPBM and the collections of J. Ostergaard and R. Summers (F. Schilder, 1958: 85). This taxon is considered a full species in the genus Blasicrura Iredale, 1930 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 161).
Bittiolum cerithioides “form” warmkeana Usticke, 1969: 12
Lectotype: AMNH 195416.
Locality: Altona Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #373A. Although Usticke (1969: 12) cited this taxon as a “form,” he listed it as a “new s[ub] s[pecies]” (1969: 12) and treated it subspecifically in the index (as Bittium [sic] cerithioides warmkeana). We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1971: 7) stated that this specimen (now AMNH 195416) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 12) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 12) given size range for the taxon of 3–4 mm length. This taxon was figured by Usticke (1971: pl. 1, fig. 373) and is a synonym of Finella dubia (d'Orbigny, 1842) (Faber, 1988: 93).
Bittium varium “form” turricula Usticke, 1969: 11, pl. 2, fig. 370A
Lectotype: AMNH 198491 (lost).
Locality: Water Island, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #370A. Although Usticke (1969: 11) cited this taxon as a “form,” he listed it as a “new s[ub] sp[ecies]” (1969: 11), treated it specifically in the index, and called it “Bittium turricula” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1969; 1971) never designated a specimen as holotype or lectotype. Although the specimen figured by Usticke (1969: pl. 2, fig. 370A) was “subsequently lost in a loan” (Faber, 1988: 91), in the interest of stability, and because of difficulties in establishing the breadth of the type series (see below), we designate Usticke's (1969: pl. 2, fig. 370A) figured specimen as lectotype. The lots of “possible syntypes” [= possible paralectotypes] cited by Faber (1988: 91; 1995: 65) are labeled “Bittium turriculum” (AMNH 192874, 192875), “Alabina” turricula (AMNH 193137), and “Cerithiodes turricula” (AMNH 193146). Because Usticke often added material to his type lots and kept very poor collection data, it is impossible to definitely assign any of these lots to the type series. The repository of the additional paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 11) given size range for the taxon of 1.5–3 mm length. Faber (1988: 91) suggested that this taxon name may not be applicable to the figured shell and conspecific specimens. This conclusion is incorrect, because these are the type specimens of the species and must be referred to by this name or that of a valid senior synonym. This taxon is placed in the genus Ittibittium Houbrick, 1993, as I. turriculum (Faber, 1995: 64).
Bizetiella shaskyi Radwin and D'Attilio, 1972: 347–350, figs. 1d–e, 24
Paratype: AMNH 179302 (1 specimen).

Collector: Ameripagos Expedition, March 22–24, 1971.
Remarks: ex LACM. The holotype is SDSNM 56119, and additional paratypes are LACM 65–11, 65–12, 65–13, 65–15, SDSNH 34688, USNM 709237, and in the collection of D. Shasky (Radwin and D'Attilio, 1972: 348–349; Finet, 1994: 48).
Blandiella reclusa Guppy, 1871: 309, pl. 17, figs. 7–8
Paralectotypes: AMNH 16698 (4 specimens).
Locality: Oropuche Mountains, Trinidad, Trinidad and Tobago.
Collector: R. Guppy.
Remarks: ex Guppy via Crooke Collection. This taxon is the type of the genus Blandiella Guppy, 1871, by monotypy (Guppy, 1871: 309). The lectotype (MCZ 175606) was selected and figured by Clench and Turner (1948c: 170, pl. 23, fig. 9). The lectotype is MCZ 175606 (Clench and Turner, 1948c: 183, pl. 23, fig. 9).

The holotype was in the collection of F. A. Schilder #14616 (current repository unknown), and an unspecified number of paratypes were in the collections of “Burgess, Cernohorsky, Gray, Kuroba, Schilder and Summers” (current repository unknown) (Schilder and Summers, 1963b: 69). The figured shells (Schilder and Summers, 1963b: 69, pls. VI–VII, figs. F–G) are also paratypes. A paratype (ex Summers Collection) may be in CASIZ.

Syntypes: AMNH 186640 (2 specimens).
Locality: Mope, northeast New Britain, Papua New Guinea, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Schilder Collection via Summers Collection. These specimens are probably from the type lot, but because of F. and M. Schilder's (1938b: 166) descriptive brevity and minimal data, this is not completely certain. The repository of additional syntypes is unknown. This taxon is a synonym of Bistolida kieneri depriesteri (Schilder, 1933) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 168).
Blasicrura (Derstolida) ursellus amoeba F. and M. Schilder, 1938b: 167
Syntypes: AMNH 186639 (2 specimens).
Locality: Mope, northeast New Britain, Papua New Guinea, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Schilder Collection via Summers Collection. These specimens are probably from the type lot, but because of F. and M. Schilder's (1938b: 167) descriptive brevity and minimal data, this is not completely certain. The repository of additional syntypes is unknown. This taxon is a synonym of Bistolida ursellus (Gmelin, 1791) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 171).

AMNH 195466a is the specimen figured by Usticke in 1971 (pl. 4, fig. 1172). The repository of additional paratypes (if any) is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 83) given size range for the taxon of 5–6.5 mm length. The genus is correctly cited as Brachycithara Woodring, 1928.

Bursa barcellosi Matthews, Rios, and Coelho, 1973: 52–53, figs. 1–5
Paratype: AMNH 181194 (1 specimen).
Locality: 100 m, off Albardão, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: L. Pontes on “Kosei Maru.”
Remarks: ex MORG 18001. The holotype is MORG 17755, and additional paratypes are LABOMAR 512, MN 3647, MNHNM 8779, MORG 17747, and in USNM and the collection of B. Barcellos (Matthews et al., 1973: 53–54). This taxon is a subspecies of Ranella olearium (Linnaeus, 1758) (Rios, 1994: 86).
Bursa corrugata “var.” lineata Usticke, 1959: 61–62, pl. 3, fig. 12
Holotype: AMNH 195427.
Paratype: AMNH 294357 (1 specimen).
Locality: Krause's Lagoon, north of Fredericksted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #632 (AMNH 195427) and Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294357). Although Usticke cited this taxon as a “var.” (= variety) (1959: 61) and as a “form” (1959: 62), he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Bursa corrugata lineata” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described and the holotype to be valid. The repository of additional paratypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 61) given size range for the taxon of 28–35 mm length. Faber (1988: 83) placed this taxon as a synonym of B. corrugata (Perry, 1811), but the holotype and paratype are actually small specimens of B. granularis cubaniana (d'Orbigny, 1842) (new synonymy).
Bursa cubaniana “var.” intermedia Usticke, 1959: 61–62, pl. 3, fig. 13
Holotype: lost.
Paratype: AMNH 294355 (1 specimen).
Locality: North of Fredericksted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294355). Although Usticke cited this taxon as a “var.” (= variety) (1959: 61) and subspecifically (1959: 62), he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Bursa cubaniana intermedia” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described and the holotype to be valid. However, the holotype cannot be located in AMNH and is considered lost. There is a specimen (AMNH 198478; labeled “neotype”) that closely resembles the holotype, but it is too small to belong to Usticke's (1959) type series and has no standing as a neotype. The repository of additional paratypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 61) given size range for the taxon of 35–45 mm length. Based on the only known paratype, this taxon is a synonym of B. granularis cubaniana (d'Orbigny, 1842) (new synonymy).

Cerithidea costata “form” barbudaensis Usticke, 1969: 11, pl. 2, fig. 349
Lectotype: AMNH 195415.
Locality: Mangrove swamps, Barbuda Island, Antigua and Barbuda, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #349. Although Usticke (1969: 11) cited this taxon as a “form,” he listed it as a “new s[ub] sp[ecies]” (1969: 11), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Cerithidea barbudaensis” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1971: 7) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 11) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 11) given size range for the taxon of 12–17 mm length. This taxon is a possible synonym of Cerithidea costata beattyi Bequaert, 1942 (Faber, 1988: 73).
Cerithiopsis academicorum Rolán and Espinosa, 1995: 140–141, figs. 21–26

Cerithiopsis binoda Usticke, 1969: 12, pl. 2, fig. 378
Lectotype: AMNH 198492.
Locality: St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #378. We herein select the specimen figured by Usticke (1969, pl. 2, fig. 378) as lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 12) given size range for the taxon of 6–8 mm length. Usticke considered this taxon to be a synonym of C. bicolor C. B. Adams, 1850 (Usticke, MS: 79).
Cerithiopsis contra-pupa Usticke, 1969: 12, pl. 2, fig. 394
Holotype: AMNH 195418.
Locality: Long Reef, Christiansted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #394/395. AMNH 195418 is the holotype by monotypy. Usticke changed his catalog number for this taxon from #394 (1969: 12) to #395 (1971: 8) without explanation. The taxon is correctly cited without the hyphen as C. contrapupa.
Cerithiopsis cruzana Usticke, 1959: 42, pl. 2, fig. 17
Holotype: AMNH 195417.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #386. Usticke (1959: 42) gave only a single measurement for this taxon, and we conclude that he had only a single specimen before him at the time of description. This taxon is possibly a synonym of C. latum (C. B. Adams, 1850) (Faber, 1988: 76).

Cerithium magnum Jay, 1836: explanation of pl. 2 [p. 83], fig. 5
Lectotype: AMNH 56067.
Paralectotype: AMNH 16126 (2 specimens; in part—see remarks).
Locality: “?” (Jay, 1836: 83); “New Holland” (Jay, 1850: 314).
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #2560a (Jay, 1839) and #7687 (Jay, 1850). AMNH 56057 is labeled as “fig d. pl. 2, fig. 5” (fig. 6 herein). Houbrick (1978: 108) stated that AMNH 56067 was the holotype, but because Jay (1836) did not designate a holotype, Houbrick's statement was an inadvertent lectotype designation. Jay (1839) stated that he had “two specimens in my cabinet.” One of the specimens from AMNH 16126 is therefore not part of the type series, but it is not possible at this time to determine which one. This species is a synonym of Pseudovertagus (P.) clava (Gmelin, 1791) (Houbrick, 1978: 108).

Columbella mercatoria “var.” elongata Usticke, 1959: 65
Lectotype: AMNH 195429.
Paralectotype: AMNH 294360 (1 specimen).
Locality: Lime Tree Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #720 (AMNH 195429) and Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294360). Although Usticke (1959: 65) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Columbella mercatoria elongata” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Because Usticke (1959) did not figure or designate a holotype, we herein select the specimen figured by Usticke (1971: pl. 2, fig. 720) as lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The repository of additional paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 65) given size range for the taxon of 15–20 mm length. Usticke (1959: 65) also called this taxon “Pyrene mercatoria elongata,” for reasons unknown. This taxon is a synonym of C. mercatoria (Linnaeus, 1758) (Faber, 1988: 79).

Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1002. Usticke (1971: 18) stated that one specimen (now AMNH 195446) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1968: 15) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. Usticke (1968: 15) referred to this taxon as a variety, although he (1968: 15) used the term “n[ew] s[ub] sp[ecies]” after the species name and used the name subspecifically in the plate caption. We consider this taxon to be subspecific and Usticke's (1971) inadvertent lectotype selection to be valid. Coomans et al. (1985: 230) also selected AMNH 195446 as lectotype, but Usticke's (1971) designation has priority. Usticke (1969: 22) erroneously listed this subspecies as new from that paper. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1968: 15) given size range for the taxon of 32–35 mm length. This taxon is a color form of C. daucus Hwass, 1792 (Coomans et al., 1985: 230).
Conus centurio “form” caribaensis Usticke, 1968: 13, pl. 2, fig. 998
Lectotype: AMNH 195445.
Locality: Krause's Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #998. We herein select Usticke's (1968: pl. 2, fig. 998) figured specimen as lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. Although Usticke (1969) referred to this taxon as a form, he (1968: 13) used the term “n[ew] s[ub] sp[ecies]” after the species name and used the name subspecifically in the plate caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described and our lectotype selection to be valid. Usticke (1969: 22) erroneously listed this subspecies as new from that paper. Coomans et al. (1983: 90–91) stated that this taxon could not be subspecific because “it is sympatric with the nominal form.” This biologically based rationale has no implications for the validity of the taxon name from a nomenclatural perspective and cannot be used to invalidate the name. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1968: 13) given size range for the taxon of 30–40 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of C. centurio Born, 1778 (Coomans et al., 1983: 91).
Conus centurio “form” cruzensis Usticke, 1968: 12–13, pl. 2, figs. 997[a], 997[b]
Lectotype: AMNH 195444.
Paralectotype: AMNH 189729a (1 specimen).
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #997. Usticke (1971: 18) stated that one specimen (now AMNH 195444) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1968: 12–13) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. Usticke (1968, 1969, 1971) never referred to this taxon other than as a form of C. centurio Born, 1778, in the text, although he (1968: 12) used the term “n[ew] s[ub] sp[ecies]” after the species name and used the name subspecifically in the plate caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described and Usticke's (1971) inadvertent lectotype selection to be valid. Coomans et al. (1985: 279–280) also selected AMNH 195444 as lectotype, but Usticke's designation has priority. Usticke (1969: 22) erroneously listed this subspecies as new from that paper. The repository of additional paralectotypes (if any) is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1968: 12) given size range for the taxon of 30–40 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of C. centurio Born, 1778 (Coomans et al., 1985: 280).

Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex A. da Motta. AMNH 213490 is da Motta's (1982: 16) paratype #4. Although this taxon was not explicitly identified as “sp. nov.” by da Motta and Blöcher in da Motta (1982), that paper is the source of description for this taxon as evidenced by the reference to “the new species” on p. 17. The holotype is MHNG 982.112, and the additional 5 paratypes are in the collection of A. da Motta (da Motta, 1982: 16).

Conus havanensis Aguayo and Farfante, 1947: 11, fig. 1
Paratypes: AMNH 186415 (1 specimen), 259702 (2 specimens).
Locality: “La Puntilla,” La Chorrera, La Habana, Cuba, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: C. G. Aguayo and/or M. L. Jaume.
Remarks: ex SDMNH via Cate Collection (AMNH 186415) and ex J. Donovan via Eddison Collection (AMNH 259702). The holotype is MPUH 12133, and additional paratypes are MPUH 175241 (Aguayo and Farfante, 1947: 11). Because Aguayo freely distributed paratype material to other institutions and individuals, and the locality data are the same as for the type series, we consider the AMNH specimens as paratypes. However, it should be noted that some ex MPUH land snail specimens labeled as “paratypes” in American museums are not such, but were distributed from MPUH with invalid type designations (see Boyko and Rosenberg, 1999). This taxon is a synonym of C. jaspideus Gmelin, 1791 (Abbott, 1974: 256).

Lectotype: AMNH 195450.
Locality: St. Vincent, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: J. Holeman.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1011. Usticke (1971: 20) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1968: 21–22) did not designate a holotype, his 1971 action constituted a lectotype designation. Usticke (1969: 25) erroneously listed this subspecies as new from that paper. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1968: 21) given size range for the taxon of 60–65 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of C. cedonulli Linnaeus, 1758 (Faber, 1988: 81).

Locality: North of Fredericksted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: G. W. N. Usticke.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #992. Usticke (1971: 17) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1968: 9) did not designate a holotype, his 1971 action constituted a lectotype designation. Usticke (1969: 21) erroneously listed this species as new from that paper. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1968: 9) given size range for the taxon of 20–34 mm length. This taxon is a form of C. mindanus Hwass, 1792 (Coomans et al., 1979: 89).

Conus pseudoaustini Usticke, 1968: 29
Holotype: AMNH 195452.
Locality: South of Barbados, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: “Bajan shrimpers.”
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1021. Usticke (1968: 29) had only a single specimen of this species, and AMNH 195452 is therefore the holotype by monotypy. The holotype is illustrated herein for the first time (fig. 8). This taxon is either a synonym of C. bajanensis Usticke, 1968 (Usticke, 1971: 20), which is a subspecies of C. armiger Crosse, 1858 (Coomans et al., 1982: 7), or possibly a good species (Vink, 1988: 10–11).
Conus pseudo-jaspideus Usticke, 1968: 7, pl. 1, fig. 985
Lectotype: AMNH 195441.
Locality: St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #985. We herein select Usticke's (1968: pl. 1, fig. 985) figured specimen as lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. Usticke (1969: 21) erroneously listed this species as new from that paper. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1968: 7) given size range for the taxon of 20–25 mm length. The species is correctly cited without the hyphen as C. pseudojaspideus. This taxon is probably a synonym of C. mindanus Hwass, 1792 (Faber, 1988: 88).

Paratype: AMNH 213520 (1 specimen).
Locality: 150 fathoms, between Lord Howe Island and Lady Musgrave Island, Queensland, Australia, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex A. da Motta. AMNH 213520 is da Motta's (1984a: 26) paratype #4. The holotype is MHNG 983.576, and the additional 4 paratypes are in the collection of A. da Motta (da Motta, 1984a: 26). This taxon is a synonym of C. tribblei Walls, 1977 (Röckel et al., 1995: 142). Walls (1977: 2) named C. tribblei after “his favorite cat,” but neglected to specify the cat's sex. It is therefore unclear from Walls's (1977) description whether the species-group ending -i or -ae is correct; in all probability, neuter would be more accurate.

Lectotype: AMNH 195443.
Locality: 25 ft, Aruba, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #995. Usticke (1971: 17) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1968: 12) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. Usticke (1969: 21) erroneously listed this subspecies as new from that paper. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1968: 12) given size range for the taxon of 40–55 mm length.

Conus ustickei Miller in Usticke, 1959: 80, pl. 1, fig. 14
Lectotype: AMNH 195448.
Paralectotype: AMNH 294369 (1 specimen).
Locality: North of Fredericksted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown (AMNH 195448), G. N. Usticke, 1959 (AMNH 294369).
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1004 (AMNH 195448) and Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294369). The authorship of this species has been in some doubt. Usticke (1959: 80) credited the description to J. P. Miller but repeatedly used the first person when referring to the species. Examples of this are found in Usticke (1959: vi), where the species is listed with the taxa for which “I [Usticke] designate as holotypes the new species that are pictured” and Usticke's (1959: 80) statement about this species that “as far as I know this has not been described, so I will proceed to remedy that defect if I can.” Faber (1988: 91) noted that “it is remarkable that Mr. Miller had exactly the same confusing way of describing taxa as Mr. Usticke himself.” However, given the evidence, we must accept Miller in Usticke as the author of this species. But, because this is the case, the holotype designation by Usticke (1959: vi), not Miller, is actually a lectotype designation. The repository of additional paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 80) given size range for the taxon of 20–28 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of C. bifasciatus Sowerby III, 1857–1858 (non C. bifasciatus Gmelin, 1791) (Coomans et al., 1982: 24). Because C. bifasciatus Sowerby III is a junior homonym of C. bifasciatus Gmelin, this species must be called by the name of its earliest junior synonym, which is C. ustickei (new status).
Conus veillardi da Motta, 1990: 44, 2 unnumbered figs.
Paratype: AMNH 232179 (1 specimen).

Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: The holotype is MHNG 10709, and additional paratypes are in SMNS and (presumably) the collection of A. da Motta (da Motta, 1990: 44). Although da Motta (1990: 44) cited only one paratype by name, he clearly indicated in the text that he examined “over twenty specimens” of this taxon and, because AMNH 232179 came directly from da Motta labeled as “paratype #3,” we consider it part of the type series. This taxon is a synonym of C. gubernator Hwass in Bruguière, 1792 (Röckel et al., 1995: 221).

Crepidula barbudaensis Usticke, 1969: 14, pl. 3, fig. 520
Lectotype: AMNH 195425.
Locality: Lagoon, Barbuda, Antigua and Barbuda, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #520. Usticke (1971: 10) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 14) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 14) given size range for the taxon of 5–7 mm length.
Crepidula fornicata “var.” cruzana Usticke, 1959: 48–49
Lectotype: AMNH 195424.
Locality: Altona Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #519. Although Usticke (1959: 48–49) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Crepidula fornicata cruzana” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Because Usticke (1959) did not designate a holotype, we herein select the specimen figured by Usticke (1969: pl. 3, fig. 519) as lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 48) given size range for the taxon of 8–15 mm length.

This taxon was figured by [Pilsbry] (1893: pl. 2, figs. 4–5) and Ford (1894: unnumbered figure). This taxon is a synonym of Erronea coloba (Melvill, 1888) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 142).
Cypraea (Blasicrura) dayritiana C. Cate, 1963: 141–142, pl. 15, figs. 1, 1a, 2, 2a
Paratype: AMNH 203885 (1 specimen).
Locality: 6 ft, Cagbatan Island, Calamian Group, North Palawan, Philippines, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: F. G. Dayrit, May 19, 1962.
Remarks: ex Cate Collection #1648. The holotype is NMM NMCO-6766, and the 8 additional paratypes are “variously in the collections of Norton, Lee, Cate [now AMNH], the National Museum, Manila” (C. Cate, 1963: 141), and MCZ 249640 (ex NMM). AMNH 203886 (ex Cate Collection #2351) and AMNH 203887 (ex Cate Collection #2405), previously considered paratypes, do not match any of the paratype measurements given by C. Cate (1963: 142), and are not here considered to be part of the type series. This taxon is retained in the genus Blasicrura Iredale, 1930 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 162).
Cypraea englerti Summers and Burgess, 1965: 41–42, pl. 4, figs. i–l
Paratype: AMNH 148004 (1 specimen).
Locality: Easter Island, Chile, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: S. Englert.
Remarks: ex Summers Collection. The holotype is BPBM 8909 (Summers and Burgess, 1965: 41). This taxon is placed in the genus Erosaria Troschel, 1863 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 203).
Cypraea (Lyncina) leviathan gedlingae C. Cate, 1968: 227, pl. 26, fig. 28
Paratypes: AMNH 204451 (1 specimen), 204452 (1 specimen), 204453 (1 specimen).
Locality: Vlaming Head, Northwest Cape, Western Australia, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: M. Gelding.
Remarks: ex Cate Collection #3537 (AMNH 204452) and #3195 (AMNH 204453). Although AMNH 204451 lacks a C. Cate label with his catalog number, it is from his collection and the type locality, and is undoubtedly a paratype. The holotype is WAM 334–67 (C. Cate, 1968: 227). The number of paratypes was not specified, and the repository of additional ones, if any, is unknown. This taxon is a synonym of Lyncina leviathan titan Schilder and Schilder, 1962 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 70).
Cypraea mauiensis Burgess, 1967: 6–11, pl. 2
Paratypes: AMNH 138199 (2 specimens), 186630 (2 specimens), 220744 (2 specimens).
Locality: 2–4 ft, 20°48.5′N, 156°37.3′W, under Porites coral, Olowalu, Maui, Hawaii, United States, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: C. M. Burgess, July 1966 (AMNH 138199), Sept. 1963 (AMNH 186630, AMNH 220744).
Remarks: The holotype is BPBM 8916, and additional paratypes are in AMNZ, AMS, ANSP, BBM, BMNH, CUMZ, MCZ, MONA, MPMP, NMV, NZSI, RMNH, USNM, WAMP, ZMUC, and the collections of several unspecified individuals (Burgess, 1967: 7–8). This taxon is placed in the genus Pustularia Swainson, 1840 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 220).
Cypraea polita Roberts, 1868: 70, pl. 15, figs. 1–3
Syntypes: AMNH 22815 (3 specimens).
Locality: “Sandwich Islands?” (= Hawaii, United States, Pacific Ocean).
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Witthaus Collection. Additional syntypes are in ANSP (Roberts, 1868: 70). This taxon is a synonym of Erosaria semiplota (Mighels, 1845) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 212).
Cypraea saulae siasiensis C. Cate, 1960b: 36, pl. 5, figs. 2–6
Paratype: AMNH 203889 (1 specimen).
Locality: 05°32′N, 120°52′E, Punnungan Island, Siasi, Philippines, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: F. G. Dayrit, Jan. 1959.
Remarks: ex Cate Collection. AMNH 203889 is C. Cate's (1960b: 35, pl. 5, fig. 3) “paratype 1.” The holotype is BPBM 212719, and the additional 2 paratypes were in the collection of C. Cate (current repository unknown) (C. Cate, 1960b: 35). This taxon is a synonym of Palmadusta saulae (Gaskoin, 1843) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 157).
Cypraea semiplota Mighels, 1845: 24
Syntypes: AMNH 22824 (9 specimens).
Locality: Oahu, Hawaii, United States, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Pease Collection via Witthaus Collection. The repository of additional syntypes is unknown. This taxon was figured by Roberts (1885: 194–195, pl. 19, figs. 31, 36–37). Johnson (1949: 229, pl. 27, fig. 1) selected a “neoholotype” (= neotype): MCZ 176989. Catalog books deposited in the AMNH by Witthaus list these specimens (AMNH 22824) as “type species” received from Pease. Cypraea semiplota is not the type species of any cypraeid genus-level taxon; therefore, we conclude that Witthaus was actually referring to “type specimens.” Johnson's “neoholotype” is hereby supressed by the rediscovery of this type material. This taxon is placed in the genus Erosaria Troschel, 1863 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 212).
Cypraea tigris schilderiana C. Cate, 1961: 108, pl. 19, figs. 1–2
Paratypes: AMNH 196004 (1 specimen), 196005 (1 specimen), 203851 (1 specimen).
Locality: 30 ft, Waialua Bay (AMNH 196004); 35 ft, off reef in Maunalua Bay, off Koko Head Point (AMNH 196005); 8 ft, Keei (AMNH 203851), Oahu, Hawaii, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: R. Gage (AMNH 196004), A. Kekoa, Jr. (AMNH 196005), C. Weaver, Jan. 15, 1958 (AMNH 203851).
Remarks: ex Cate Collection #1998, #1999, and #2004. AMNH 196004 is C. Cate's (1961: 109) “paratype 9”; AMNH 196005 is C Cate's (1961: 109) “paratype 10”; AMNH 203851 is C. Cate's (1961: 109) “paratype 8.” The holotype is BPBM 212885, and paratypes 2, 4, 5, and 7 are in USNM, the Schilder Collection (current repository unknown), BMNH, and MCZ, respectively. The current repository of paratypes 1, 3, and 6 is unknown. This taxon is a synonym of C. tigris Linnaeus, 1758 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 65).
Cypraea (Notocypraea) trenberthae Trenberth, 1961: 1–2, fig. 1
Paratype: AMNH 213442 (1 specimen).
Locality: Tunmy Bay, South Australia, Australia, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: W. P. Trenberth.
Remarks: ex Summers Collection (paratype #4). The holotype is SAM D.14616, and additional paratypes are in the Trenberth Collection and the Malacological Society of Australia Collection (Trenberth, 1961: 2). This taxon is a synonym of Notocypraea comptonii (Gray, 1847) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 100).
Cypraea undata “var.” buttoni Oldroyd, 1916: 107–108
Paratype: AMNH 44439 (1 specimen).
Locality: Fiji, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Oldroyd Collection. The holotype is in SU (Oldroyd, 1916: 108). Although described as a “new variety,” this taxon has been repeatedly treated at the species level (Burgess, 1970: 94; Burgess, 1985: 129; Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 153). Because this satisfies the requirements of ICZN Article 45(g)(1), this taxon is treated at the subspecific level herein, and a type series is accordingly recognized. This taxon is a synonym of C. diluculum Reeve, 1845 (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 153).
Cystiscus bubistae Fernandes, 1987: 263–265, fig. 2
Holotype: AMNH 225992.
Locality: 1–3 m, Gatas Bay, Boavista Island, Cape Verde Archipelago, Portugal, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: F. Fernandes, May 27, 1986.
Remarks: ex Rolán Collection. Paratypes are in BMNH, CZL, MNHN, the Cabo Verde Museum, and the collections of I. Felix-Alves, F. Fernandes, J. Messias, M. Pin, E. Rolán, and P. Ryall (Fernandes, 1987: 264–265). [Fernandes] (1987: 334) changed the specific name to Cysticus bubistaensis, an unjustified emendation.
‘Cystiscus’ gutta Gofas and Fernandes, 1988: 17–19, figs. 19–20, pl. 2a
Paratypes: AMNH 238669 (2 specimens).
Locality: 3–5 m, Esprainha Beach, São Tomé, São Tomé and Principe, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: F. Fernandes, Nov. 23, 1986.
Remarks: ex Fernandes Collection. The holotype is in MNHN, and additional paratypes are in IIT, MNHN, NMW, and the collection of F. Fernandes (Gofas and Fernandes, 1988: 17). The generic classification is only provisional (Gofas and Fernandes, 1988: 17).
Daphnella barbadensis Usticke, 1969: 30, pl. 6, fig. 1222
Holotype: AMNH 195474.
Locality: Barbados, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1222. AMNH 195474 is the holotype by monotypy. This taxon is a synonym of D. lymneiformis (Kiener, 1840) (Faber, 1988: 73).
Daphnella hayesi Usticke, 1959: 84, pl. 4, fig. 13
Holotype: AMNH 195473.
Locality: Long Reef, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1221. AMNH 195473 is the holotype by monotypy. The type locality was given as “Ham Bay” by Usticke (1959: 84) but as cited above by Usticke (1969: 30).
Daphnella stegeri “var.” monocincta Usticke, 1969: 30, pl. 6, fig. 1224
Holotype: lost.
Locality: Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: Although Usticke (1969: 30) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “n[ew] sp[ecies]” (1969: 30), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Daphnella monocincta” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke's (1969: pl. 6, fig. 1224) figured specimen was the holotype by monotypy. It cannot be located in AMNH and is presumed lost. Usticke's (1969: 30) mention of the “Gulf of Mexico” as a locality for this taxon is a mystery.
Dendroconus morrisoni Raybaudi Massilia, 1991: 20–25, text figs. 20–25, 25d
Paratypes: AMNH 232181 (2 specimens).
Locality: 12°20′S, 122°E, northeast corner of Ashmore Reef, Timor Sea, Western Australia, Pacific Ocean.

Dolium melanostomum Jay, 1839: 124–125, pls. 8–9
Holotype: AMNH 56115.
Locality: “Friendly Islands” [Tonga] (Jay, 1839: 124); “Pacific Ocean” (Jay, 1850: 357).
Collector: “Natives” (Jay, 1839: 124).
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #9132 (Jay, 1850). AMNH 56113 is labeled “type,” is Jay's (1839) figured specimen, and is the holotype by monotypy (fig. 11 herein). This species is placed in the genus Tonna Brünnich, 1772, as T. melanostoma (Abbott and Dance, 1982: 118).
Douglassia (Cerodrillia?) [sic] nodosa Usticke, 1969: 28, pl. 6, fig. 1131
Lectotype: AMNH 195464.
Locality: Marina Key, Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1131. Usticke (1971: 24) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 28) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 28) given size range for the taxon of 12–13.5 mm length.
Doxospira hertleini Shasky, 1971: 67–68, fig. 1
Paratype: AMNH 164610 (1 specimen).
Locality: 77–112 m, 09°19′32″N, 84°29′30″W, 14 mi SSE of Judas Point, Costa Rica, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: W. Beebe, March 1, 1938.
Remarks: The holotype is CASIZ 13288, and additional paratypes are CASIZ 13289–13291, LACM 1565, and in SDMNH, USNM, and the collection of D. Shasky (Shasky, 1971: 68).
Drillia chaaci Espinosa and Rolán, 1995: 30–32, figs. 1–6
Paratype: AMNH 226535 (1 specimen).
Locality: Puerto Morelos, Yucatan, Mexico, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Rolán Collection. The holotype is MNCN 15.05/22391, and additional paratypes are in BMNH, IES, MNHN, UNAM, and the collection of E. Rolán (Espinosa and Rolán, 1995: 30).
Drillia inaequistriata Li, 1930: 275, pl. 8, fig. 71
Holotype: AMNH 269094.
Locality: Mouth of Rio Grande, in mud, 10–40 ft, 1 mi from mainland near La Boca, Panama Bay, Panama, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: D. MacDonald, 1907.
Remarks: ex Columbia University 22131. AMNH 269094 is the holotype by monotypy. The specific name was given by Li (1930) as both “inequistriata” (p. 251) and “inaequistriata” (pp. 275, 296). Pilsbry (1931: 434) exercised the right of first revisor and chose “inaequistriata” as the correct spelling, although he apparently did so unintentionally, because he never cited the alternate spelling. To further complicate matters, the species was listed as Clathrodrillia interstriata by Pilsbry (1931: 437, 440). This was an unjustified emendation corrected by Pilsbry to “inaequistriata” on an errata sheet tipped into some copies of his 1931 publication. This taxon is a synonym of Crassispira (C.) incrassata (Sowerby, 1834) (Keen, 1971: 715).
Drillia kleinrosa Usticke, 1969: 27, pl. 5, fig. 1099
Holotype: AMNH 195458.
Locality: Klein Bonaire, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1099. AMNH 195458 is the holotype by monotypy. Usticke (1971: 22) changed his number for this taxon from #1099 to #1089 without explanation.
Drillia ponciana “var.” virgata Usticke, 1969: 27, pl. 5, fig. 1098
Lectotype: AMNH 195457.
Locality: Barbados, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1098. Although Usticke (1969: 27) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “n[ew] sp[ecies]” (1969: 27), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Drillia virgata” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1971: 22) introduced the unnecessary replacement name D. bandata for this taxon (see Faber, 1988: 72) and changed his catalog number for it from #1098 to #1088 without explanation. Usticke (1971: 22) stated that this specimen (now AMNH 195457) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 27) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 27) given size range for the taxon of 8.5–9 mm length. The types of D. ponciana virgata and D. bandata are the same. The identity of this taxon is unclear, but it does not appear to be a Drillia Gray, 1838 (Faber, 1988: 72).
Drillia (Drillia) tumida McLean and Poorman, 1971: 97, fig. 17
Paratype: AMNH 164604 (1 specimen).

Remarks: Additional paratypes are DMNH 51119 and in AIM and TAUI (Emerson and Cernohorsky, 1973: 24). Although Emerson and Cernohorsky (1973: 24) cited 8 paratypes in AMNH, 9 are present. The figured paratype (AMNH 112617A) and a specimen in alcohol (AMNH 112617B) retain their separate catalog numbers, but all of the other AMNH paratypes have been combined into a single lot.

Echinus [sic] nodulosus “var.” major Usticke, 1969: 9–10, pl. 2, fig. 224
Lectotype: AMNH 195411.
Locality: Ham Bluff, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #224. Although Usticke (1969: 9) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “new s[ub] sp[ecies]” (1969: 9), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Echinus major” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1971: 6) stated that this specimen (now AMNH 195411) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 9–10) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 9) given size range for the taxon of 16–21 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of Nodolittorina (Tectinus) antoni (Philippi, 1846) (Faber, 1988: 83–84).

Engina turbinella “var.” cruzana Usticke, 1959: 68–69
Lectotype: AMNH 198494.
Locality: West coast, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #790. Although Usticke cited this taxon as a “var.” (= variety) (1959: 68) and as a “form” (1959: 68), he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Engina turbinella cruzana” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described, but because Usticke (1959) did not designate a holotype, we herein select the specimen figured by Usticke (1969: pl. 2, fig. 789 [790]) as lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The correct number of the figure given by Usticke (1969) for this taxon should be fig. 790, as shown by the species entry on p. 17. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 68) given size range for the taxon of 10–14 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of E. turbinella (Kiener, 1834) (Faber, 1988: 77).

Fenimorea culexensis Usticke, 1969: 28, pl. 6, fig. 1124
Lectotype: AMNH 195462.
Locality: Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1124. Usticke (1971: 23) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 28) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 28) given size range for the taxon of 12–15 mm length.

Fissurella punctata “var.” rosea Usticke, 1969: 8, pl. 1, fig. 68
Lectotype: AMNH 198495.
Locality: Columbus Point, Buck Island, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #68. AMNH 198495 was the figured specimen (Usticke, 1969) and is here designated lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. Although the term “var.” (= variety) was employed in the description, all other “varieties” described by Usticke (1969) were called “new s[ub] sp[ecies]” or, in error, “new sp[ecies].” In this case, Usticke mistakenly considered his (1959: 24) introduction of the name without description as valid, when it was a nomen nudum from that paper. This taxon, described with an infrasubspecific term after 1960, should nevertheless be considered subspecific because it was not published expressly as a “variety” in the traditional sense of the word. This taxon was erroneously called “Fissurella rosea” in the figure caption (Usticke, 1969). The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 8) given size range for the taxon of 14–19 mm length. F. punctata rosea is preoccupied by Patella rosea Gmelin, 1791, but is a synonym of F. punctata Fischer, 1857 (Faber, 1988: 88–89).
Fossarus orbignyi “var.” tridentata Usticke, 1959: 47–48, pl. 3, fig. 2
Holotype: AMNH 195422.
Paratype: AMNH 294368 (1 specimen).
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #506 (AMNH 195422) and Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294368). Although Usticke cited this taxon as a “var.” (= variety) (1959: 47) and as “n. sp.” (1959: 47–48), he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Fossarus orbignyi tridentata” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described and the holotype to be valid. Although Usticke (1959: 47) gave only a single measurement for this taxon, a second specimen subequal in size to the holotype exists (AMNH 294368). The specific name was misspelled “orbigny” on p. 48 (Usticke, 1959). This taxon is a synonym of F. ambiguus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Faber, 1988: 91).

Fusus (Colus) pagodoides Watson, 1882: 383–386
Syntype: AMNH 51650 (1 specimen).
Locality: Sta. 164B, 410 fathoms, 34°13′S, 151°38′E, off Sydney, Queensland, Australia, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: H.M.S. “Challenger,” June 13, 1874.
Remarks: ex Sowerby via Constable Collection. The species was illustrated by Watson (1886: 197–198, pl. 14, fig. 3). The AMNH specimen has only the data “410 fms, Sydney” on the label. It was purchased by Constable from Sowerby in the early 1890s. Because the shell was clearly live-collected, came from a British source after publication of the “Challenger” results, and has the same depth data as the specimens cited by Watson (1882), we conclude that AMNH 51650 is indeed part of the type series, as suggested by Richards and Old (1969). Additional syntypes are in BMNH and NMW (Way, personal commun.). This taxon is placed in the genus Columbarium von Martens, 1881 (Wilson, 1994: 58).

Holotype: AMNH 195421.
Locality: Palm Beach, Barbuda, Antigua and Barbuda, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #488. AMNH 195421 is the holotype by monotypy. Faber (1988: 89) suggested that AMNH 195421 may not be the figured specimen. Our examination of the specimen does not support this conclusion, but does confirm that the specimen was damaged at some time after it was illustrated by Usticke (1969). Usticke (1969; 1971) gave no indication that he had any additional specimens of this taxon.

Heliacus crystallina Usticke, 1969: 10, pl. 2, fig. 338
Lectotype: AMNH 195414.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #338. Usticke (1971: 7) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 10) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 10) given size range for the taxon of 2.75–4.25 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of Pseudotorinia retifera (Dall, 1892) (Faber, 1988: 78).

This taxon is placed in the genus Alcaldia Gray, 1840 (Robertson et al., 1986: 75). Robertson et al. (1986: 75) incorrectly cited the ANSP specimens as lectotype and paralectotypes, even thought Pilsbry (1933: pl. 7, figs. 11, 11a) clearly cited the figured specimen as the “type” (= holotype).

Inodrillia ustickei Hayes in Usticke, 1959: 82, pl. 4, fig. 12
Lectotype: AMNH 195463.
Locality: North of Fredericksted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1125. The authorship of this species has been in some doubt. Usticke (1959: 82) credited the description to M. Hayes, but used the first person to refer to the species on p. vi in the list of taxa, where “I [Usticke] designate as holotypes the new species that are pictured.” This case is similar to that of Conus ustickei Miller in Usticke, and, given the evidence, we must accept Hayes in Usticke as the author of this species. However, because this is the case, the holotype designation by Usticke (1959: vi), not Miller, is actually a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 82) given size range for the taxon of 12–17.5 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of Drillia (Drillia) cydia Bartsch, 1943 (Faber, 1988: 91).
Io brevis Anthony, 1860: 69–70
Paralectotypes: AMNH 276266 (6 specimens).
Locality: Tennessee River, Tennessee, United States.
Collector: J. Anthony.
Remarks: ex MCZ. The lectotype (MCZ 50551) was selected by Turner (1946: 99, as “holotype”); the subsequent designation of ANSP 26873 as lectotype by Baker (1964: 180) is invalid. Additional paralectotypes are in MCZ. This is a form of I. fluviatilis (Say, 1825) (Burch, 1989: 272).
Isotriphora taenialba Rolán and Espinosa, 1994: 64–67, figs. 4–10

Holotype: AMNH 195465.
Locality: Secret Harbor, St. Johns, Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1155. The repository of paratypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1971: 24) given size range for the taxon of 4.75–5.6 mm length.
Kuroshiovolva shingoi Azuma and C. Cate, 1971: 266–267, figs. 14, 20–23

This species is the type of the genus Kuroshiovolva Azuma and C. Cate, 1971, by monotypy (Azuma and C. Cate, 1971: 266).
Kurtziella quadrilineata “var.” longa Usticke, 1969: 29, pl. 6, fig. 1201
Lectotype: AMNH 195469.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1201. Although Usticke (1969: 29) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “n[ew] s[ub] sp[ecies]” (1969: 28), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Kurtziella longa” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1971: 26) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 29) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 29) given size range for the taxon of 6–10.5 mm length.

Lectotype: AMNH 195468.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1199. Although Usticke (1969: 28) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “n[ew] s[ub] sp[ecies]” (1969: 28), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Kurtziella macula” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1971: 25) stated that this specimen (now AMNH 195468) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 28) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 28) given size range for the taxon of 4.5–6 mm length. The identity of this taxon is unclear; it may be a synonym of Agathotoma metria (Dall, 1903) or Tenaturris trilineata (C. B. Adams, 1845) (Faber, 1988: 83).
Kurtziella vincula Usticke, 1969: 29, pl. 6, fig. 1202

Paralectotypes: AMNH 195471 (2 specimens).
Locality: Altona Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1202. Usticke (1971: 26) stated that this specimen (now AMNH 195470) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 29) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of additional paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 29) given size range for the taxon of 6–8.5 mm length.
Kylix contracta McLean and Poorman, 1971: 92, fig.7

Collector: H. Lang and J. Chapin, 1909–1915.
Remarks: Additional paratypes are MCZ 171494 (28 specimens ex AMNH 72104). The repository of the additional approximately 100+ paratypes is unknown. AMNH 72069 and 72070 were recorded as lost in July 1945, and the file cards are missing from AMNH; the number of specimens originally present in AMNH 72070 therefore cannot be determined. This taxon is a synonym of L. ovum Peters, 1845 (Brown, 1980: 52).

Grunzig (4 specimens) (Emerson and D'Attilio, 1965a: 102). Because AMNH was originally cited by Emerson and D'Attilio (1965a) to contain only 2 paratype specimens, it is unclear what the origin of AMNH 120587 was, although it may have come from the collection of A. D'Attilio. In Emerson and D'Attilio (1965a), AMNH 111976 is figs. 1–2, AMNH 120585 is figs. 3–4, and AMNH 120586 is fig. 6. This taxon is placed in the genus Babelomurex Coen, 1922 (Wilson, 1994: 16).

Latirus karinae Usticke, 1969: 18, pl. 4, fig. 821
Lectotype: AMNH 198490.
Locality: Puerto Rico, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #821. We herein select the specimen figured by Usticke (1969, pl. 4, fig. 821) as lectotype to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 18) given size range for the taxon of 30–44 mm length.

Lectotype: AMNH 195434.
Locality: Buccoo Reef, Tobago, British Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #831. Although Usticke (1969: 18) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he listed it as a “n[ew] sp[ecies]” (1969: 18), treated it subspecifically in the index, and called it “Leucozonia lineata” in the figure caption. We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Usticke (1971: 14) stated that this specimen (now AMNH 195434) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 18) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 18) given size range for the taxon of 22–27 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of L. ocellata (Gmelin, 1791) (Faber, 1988: 83).

A second specimen in AMNH 56113a (now removed as 56113b) is not a syntype, because it is labeled with the Jay catalog #4651 for “Melania laeta var.” (Jay, 1850: 274). The whereabouts of additional syntypes (if any) are unknown. This species is placed in the genus Elimia H. and A. Adams, 1854 (Burch, 1989: 142), and may possibly be extinct (Turgeon et al., 1998: 317).

Nassarius “var.” nanus Usticke, 1959: 70, pl. 4, fig. 5
Holotype: AMNH 195433.
Paratype: AMNH 294362 (1 specimen).
Locality: Cane Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #806 (AMNH 195433) and Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294362). Usticke (1959: 70) described this taxon as a “var.” (= variety; no taxon given in the species heading) that is a “dwarf race” of N. albus (Say, 1826) but that “deserves a sub specific title.” Despite this convoluted logic, the taxon was first listed by Usticke (1959: vi) as “Nassarius nanus” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider the description to be at a specific or subspecific level, but because Usticke (1959) was so imprecise it is hard to tell which. In either case, the holotype designation is valid. The repository of additional paratypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1959: 70) given size range for the taxon of 4–5 mm length. The name is preoccupied by N. nanus (A. Adams, 1852), and was replaced by N. karinae Usticke, 1971 (Usticke, 1971: 14). The types for N. nanus Usticke and N. karinae are identical.

Natica imperforata Jay, 1836: explanation of pl. 4 [p. 87], fig. 10
Syntypes: AMNH 14674 (2 specimens), 14677 (3 specimens), 56068 (1 specimen).
Locality: ”?” (Jay, 1836: 87); “Isl. Tablas” [Philippines, Pacific Ocean] (Jay, 1850: 176).
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #2204a (Jay, 1839), #7000 (Jay, 1850) (AMNH 14674, 56068),? (Jay, 1839), #7001 (Jay, 1850) (AMNH 14677). AMNH 56068 is labeled “fig'd spec.” on the specimen label and AMNH file card, but the specimen is not labeled as such in Jay's handwriting and it does not closely match Jay's (1836: fig. 10) figure. AMNH 14677 may not be syntypes, because there is no corresponding Jay catalog number for them in his 1839 edition; they may have been added to his collection after 1839 but before 1850. Jay (1836: 87) cited “several specimens” as being in his collection at the time of description; the whereabouts of other type specimens (if any) are unknown. This species is a synonym of Globularia fluctuata (Sowerby, 1825) (Abbott and Dance, 1982: 101).

Neritina papillosa Jay, 1836: explanation of pl. 3 [p. 87], fig. 11
Syntypes: AMNH 17137 (5 specimens), 56072 (7 specimens).
Locality: ”?” (Jay, 1836: 87); “Sandwich Islands” [= Hawaii, United States, Pacific Ocean] (Jay, 1839: 117).
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #2169a (Jay, 1839), #6828 (Jay, 1850) (AMNH 17137), #2169a (Jay, 1839), #6829 (Jay, 1850) (AMNH 56072). One specimen in AMNH 56072 is labeled as “fig d. pl. 4 fig. 11,” and one other specimen in that lot appears to be another of the three figured specimens. None of the specimens from AMNH 17137 are figured. The whereabouts of other type specimens (including one of the three figured specimens) are unknown. Although Jay (1850: 286) gave “6828” for the specimens of N. papillosa, one lot of AMNH specimens (56072) is from “6829”; however, because one specimen from this lot is correctly labeled as a figured specimen, it is assumed that some interpolation of numbers was made in the past and AMNH 56072 is part of the type series. This species is a synonym of Neritina granosa (Sowerby, 1825) (Kay, 1979: 65).

Patella caliculus Li, 1930: 265, pl. 6, fig. 41
Syntypes: AMNH 269076 (1 specimen), 269095 (1 specimen).
Locality: Mouth of Rio Grande, in mud, 10–40 ft, 1 mi from mainland near La Boca, Panama Bay, Panama, Pacific Ocean [error for Mediterranean?].
Collector: D. MacDonald, 1907.
Remarks: ex Columbia University 22101. AMNH 269076 was the figured specimen (Li, 1930). The specific name was also incorrectly spelled “calcilus” by Li (1930: 292). The species was listed as P. calyculus by Pilsbry (1931: 431). This was an unjustified emendation later corrected by Pilsbry on an errata sheet tipped into some copies of his 1931 publication. Pilsbry (1931: 431) cited this taxon as a synonym of the European P. vulgata Linnaeus, 1758, without further elaboration as to his reasons. This synonymy should probably be reexamined and the types of P. caliculus compared with similar Panamic species.
Patella calix Li, 1930: 264–265, pl. 5, fig. 40
Holotype: AMNH 269075.
Locality: Mouth of Rio Grande, in mud, 10–40 ft, 1 mi from mainland near La Boca, Panama Bay, Panama, Pacific Ocean [error for Mediterranean?].
Collector: D. MacDonald, 1907.
Remarks: ex Columbia University 22100. AMNH 269075 is the holotype by monotypy. The species was listed as P. calyx by Pilsbry (1931: 431). This was an unjustified emendation later corrected by Pilsbry on an errata sheet tipped into some copies of his 1931 publication. Pilsbry (1931: 431) cited this taxon as a synonym of the European P. caerulea Linnaeus, 1758, without further elaboration as to his reasons. This synonymy should probably be reexamined and the types of P. calix compared with similar Panamic species.
Peringiella tuber Rolán, 1991a: 54–55, figs. 1, 2b
Paratype: AMNH 255064 (1 specimen).

Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #958. Although Usticke (1969: 20) gave only a single measurement for this taxon, he cited it as having been collected at three localities. We herein select the specimen figured by Usticke (1969: pl. 4, fig. 958) as lectotype in order to fix the identity of this poorly defined taxon. The repository of the additional paralectotype(s) is unknown. This taxon is placed in the genus Gibberula Swainson, 1817 (Faber, 1988: 70).

Phenacovolva (Calcaria) wakayamaensis C. Cate and Azuma in C. Cate, 1973: 107, fig. 240
Paratype: AMNH 204859 (1 specimen).
Locality: 37–55 m, 34°00′N, 134°48′E, 2–3 km off Minabe, Kii Peninsula, Japan, Pacific Ocean.

Phenacolvolva (Turbovolva) kashiwajimensis C. Cate and Azuma in C. Cate, 1973: 104–105, fig. 235
Paratype: AMNH 204953 (1 specimen).
Locality: 40–50 m, 203 km off Minabe, Kii, Japan, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Azuma Collection #15417B; Cate Collection #3906. The holotype is Azuma Collection #15420 (C. Cate, 1973: 105). Although the locality data for the AMNH specimen do not match the data given by C. Cate (1973: 105), the specimen does match the measurements given by C. Cate (1973: 105) for the sole paratype. It is likely that the locality data given by C. Cate (1973: 105) were only for the holotype.
Phenacovolva (Pellasimnia) weaveri pseudogracilis C. Cate and Azuma in C. Cate, 1973: 101, fig. 228

Pila congoensis Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927: 177–179, pl. 15, figs. 3–4
Holotype: AMNH 72088.
Paratypes: AMNH 72089 (1 specimen; lost), 72122 (1 specimen), 72123 (2 specimens), 72126 (9 specimens), 136858 (15 specimens).
Locality: 00°30′N, 25°15′E, Stanleyville (= Kisangani) (AMNH 72088, 72089, 72126, 136858), 03°40′N, 27°50′E, Niangara (AMNH 72123), 01°20′N, 27°40′E, Avakubi (AMNH 72122), Belgian Congo (= Zaire = Democratic Republic of the Congo), Africa.
Collector: H. Lang and J. Chapin, 1909–1915 (AMNH 72088, 72089, 72123, 72126, 136858), J. Bequaert (AMNH 72122).
Remarks: Additional paratypes are MCZ 171486 (33 specimens ex AMNH 72126) and 171487 (3 specimens ex AMNH 72123). AMNH 72089 was recorded as lost in July 1945. The repository of the additional 13+ paratypes is unknown. AMNH 72124 (1 specimen) from “Bumba Lie” and AMNH 72125 (1 specimen) from “near Bumba” were labeled as specimens of this taxon but cannot be paratypes of P. congoensis because they were collected from localities other than those cited by Pilsbry and Bequaert (1927: 177). See below under P. congoensis amplior for further discussion of these specimens. This taxon is a synonym of P. ovata (Olivier, 1804) (Brown, 1980: 45).
Pila congoensis amplior Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927: 179, pl. 15, figs. 1–2
Holotype: AMNH 72087.
Locality: 01°40′N, 19°10′E, Nouvelle Anvers, Belgian Congo (= Zaire = Democratic Republic of the Congo), Africa.
Collector: H. Lang and J. Chapin, July 24, 1909.
Remarks: The paratype from Bumba is MCZ 171488. The repository of the 2 paratypes from Medje is unknown. AMNH 72124 (1 specimen) from “Bumba Lie” and AMNH 72125 (1 specimen) from near Bumba may be the aformentioned paratypes from Medje with incorrect label information. However, both of these specimens are lost, and there is no way to verify their status by comparison with Pilsbry and Bequaert's (1927) measurements or illustrations. This taxon is a synonym of P. ovata (Olivier, 1804) (Brown, 1980: 45).

Pseudostomatella erythrocoma “var.” cycloradiata Usticke, 1959: 26, pl. 2, fig. 8
Holotype: AMNH 195407.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #112. Although Usticke (1959: 26) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Pseudo stomatella [sic] cycloradiata” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described and the holotype to be valid. The juvenile specimen figured by Usticke (1969: pl. 1, fig. 112; larger illustration) was considered “possibly a paratype” by Faber (1988: 78). However, because Usticke (1959: 26) gave only a single measurement for this taxon, we conclude that he had only the holotype before him at the time of description and that this additional juvenile specimen is not a type. This taxon was erroneously cited as “Pseudostomatella cycloradiata” in the figure caption.

Syntypes: AMNH 190715 (34 specimens).
Locality: Secret Harbor, St. Johns, Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection. Because Usticke's (1969: pl. 6, fig. 1247) figure is a poor pencil drawing and no specimen is segregated or identifiable with it in the AMNH collection, a lectotype designation is not advisable. We have chosen to deal with this taxon in this catalog, rather than with the opisthobranchs (Boyko and Sage, 1996), because it is not an opisthobranch but rather is based on veliger shells of Coralliophila caribaea Abbott, 1958 (Faber, 1988: 77).

Somatogyrus crassilabris Walker, 1915a: 40
Paralectotypes: AMNH 2648 (10 specimens).
Locality: From rocks on muddy bank, north fork of White River, Norfolk, Baxter Co., Arkansas, United States.
Collector: A. Hinkley, Aug. 1914.
Remarks: ex Hinkley Collection. This taxon was originally briefly described by Walker (1915a: 40), who subsequently (Walker, 1915b: 53, fig. 4; erroneously as “n. sp.”) gave an expanded description and illustrated a specimen. Three months after Walker's (1915b) expanded description, Hinckley (1915: 588, pl. 78, fig. 1) used part of the same type series as the basis for his description of “Somatogyrus crassilabris, new species.” Curiously, Hinkley (1915: 589) cited this taxon in his “list of species collected” as “Somatogyrus crassilabris Walker,” for which we can offer no explanation. Hinkley's (1915) taxon is both a homonym of S. crassilabris Walker and a junior objective synonym of that taxon. Walker (1915a, 1915b) did not designate a holotype and only mentioned that “types” were in the Walker Collection (#38823) and “cotypes” were in the Hinkley Collection (Walker, 1915b: 53). Hinkley (1915: 288) selected “the type” (= holotype) as USNM 271763, and only this specimen and Hinkley's (1915) other specimens are part of the type series of S. crassilabris Hinkley; the specimens from the Walker Collection were excluded. We here select the holotype of S. crassilabris Hinkley as the lectotype of S. crassilabris Walker in order to permanently remove any confusion.

Synaptocochlea picta “var.” lactea Usticke, 1959: 26
Holotype: AMNH 195406.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #108. AMNH 195406 is the specimen figured by Usticke (1969: pl. 2, fig. 108) and is the holotype by monotypy. Although Usticke (1959: 26) cited this taxon as a “var.,” he first listed it (1959: vi) as “Synaptocochlea lactea” under the heading “new species and subspecies.” We consider this taxon to have been subspecifically described. Although the species was (barely) described by Usticke (1959: 26; “pure white shell”), it was not figured until his 1969 publication. Usticke (1959: 26) gave only a single measurement for this taxon, and we conclude that he had only a single specimen before him at the time of description. This taxon was erroneously cited as “Synaptocochlea lactea” in the figure caption. The taxon is a synonym of S. picta (d'Orbigny, 1842) (Faber, 1988: 82).
Taheitea [sic] pallida Pease, 1868: 229–230
Paralectotypes: AMNH 16620 (4 specimens), 73063 (17 specimens).
Locality: Tahiti.
Collector: A. Garrett.
Remarks: ex Haines Collection (AMNH 16620), Pease Collection (AMNH 73063). Baker (1964: 175) cited ANSP 13659a as the type specimen. Beacuse Pease (1868) did not designate a type, Baker's (1964) action constituted a lectotype designation. Additional paralectotypes are MCZ 178660 and 178657 (Clench and Turner, 1948c: 204). The genus is correctly spelled Taheitia H. and A. Adams, 1863 (Clench and Turner, 1948c: 183), but this taxon was placed in the genus Truncatella Risso, 1826, by Baker (1964: 175).

Teinostoma millepunctata Usticke, 1969: 10, pl. 2, fig. 307
Lectotype: AMNH 195413.
Locality: Antigua, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #307. Usticke (1971: 6) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 10) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 10) given size range for the taxon of “20–22” [error for 2.0–2.2] mm length. This specific name is preoccupied by T. millepunctatum Pilsbry and Olsson, 1945, and was replaced by T. ciskae Faber, 1995 (Faber, 1995: 62).

Locality: Mouth of Rio Grande, in mud, 10–40 ft, 1 mi from mainland near La Boca, Panama Bay, Panama, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: D. MacDonald, 1907.
Remarks: ex Columbia University 22127. AMNH 269090 was the figured specimen (Li, 1930). Although the specific name is spelled “gracilenta” on the specimen label, Li (1930) gave it as “cracilenta” three times in his publication, which is therefore the correct original spelling. This taxon is a synonym of T. tuberculosa Hinds, 1844 (Bratcher and Cernohorsky, 1987: 130).
Terebra dorothyae Bratcher and Burch, 1970a: 297, pl. 44, figs. 7–8

Bratcher and J. Burch (Bratcher and Burch, 1970b: 2). This taxon has been cited as a synonym of T. jacquelinae Bratcher and Burch, 1970 (Bratcher and Cernohorsky, 1987: 146). However, T. hertleini was published one page earlier than T. jacquelinae and is the oldest availible name if these two taxa are considered synonymous. T. hertleini is therefore the senior synonym of T. jacquelinae (new synonymy). The fact that the holotype of T. hertleini is a juvenile specimen (see Bratcher and Cernohorsky, 1987: 146) is not relevant in this matter.
Terebra (Strioterebrum) hoffmeyeri Abbott, 1952: 78, pl. 5, figs. 5–9

Bratcher, J. Burch, and J. DeRoy (Bratcher and Burch, 1970b: 4). This taxon has been cited as the senior synonym of T. hertleini Bratcher and Burch, 1970 (Bratcher and Cernohorsky, 1987: 146). However, T. hertleini was published one page earlier than T. jacquelinae and is the oldest available name if these two taxa are considered synonymous. T. jacquelinae is therefore a synonym of T. hertleini (new synonymy). The fact that the holotype of T. hertleini is a juvenile specimen (see Bratcher and Cernohorsky, 1987: 146) is not relevant in this matter.

Because Usticke (1969: 28) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 28) given size range for the taxon of 6.5–7.0 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of T. floridana Fargo, 1953 (Faber, 1988: 78).

Triphora novem Usticke, 1969: 12, pl. 2, fig. 403
Lectotype: AMNH 195419.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #403. Usticke (1971: 8) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 12) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. Moolenbeek and Faber (1989: 80) also selected AMNH 195419 as lectotype, but Usticke's designation has priority. Additional lots of Triphora novem labeled “paralectotypes” by Faber and containing either 3 (AMNH 192889) or 4 (AMNH 193171) different species are not here considered paralectotypes because of questionable collection data. Because Usticke often added material to his type lots and kept very poor data, it is impossible to definitely assign any of these lots to the type series, especially because more than one species is present. This taxon is placed in the genus Mesophora Laseron, 1958 (Rolán and Fernández-Garcés, 1995: 11).

Lectotype: AMNH 193773.
Locality: Long Reef, Christiansted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #408. Usticke (1971: 9) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 13) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 13) given size range for the taxon of 5–6 mm length. The taxon is correctly cited without the hyphen as T. turrissimilis and is a synonym of Eutriphora bermudensis (Bartsch, 1911) (Rolán and Fernández-Garcés, 1995: 13).

Truncatella pfeifferi von Martens, 1860: 43–44
Paralectotypes: AMNH 16605 (4 specimens).
Locality: Tanegashima, Osumi, Japan.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Constable Collection. Clench and Turner (1948c: 205) cited a “holotype” in RMNH. Because von Martens (1860) did not designate a holotype, Clench and Turner's (1948c) action constituted a lectotype designation. Additional paralectotypes are MCZ 160359 (Clench and Turner, 1948c: 205). This taxon is a synonym of T. (T.) marginata Küster, 1855 (Clench and Turner, 1948c: 163).

Turbo castaneus versicolor Usticke, 1959: 29
Syntypes: lost.
Locality: West of Altona Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: The syntypes are not recognizable as such among the numerous lots of T. castanea Gmelin, 1791, received from Usticke by AMNH, and are considered lost. The taxon was never figured but is a synonym of T. castanea (Faber, 1988: 92).

Locality: “South Seas” (Jay, 1839: 111).
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #7491 (Jay, 1850). AMNH 56071 is labeled as “fig d. type” in Jay's handwriting. Both syntypes are figured herein (fig. 17). The whereabouts of other syntype specimens (if any) are unknown. This taxon is a synonym of Norrisia norrisi (Sowerby, 1838) (Pilsbry, 1889: 276). Because this species actually occurs in California and Baja California, Mexico, Jay's (1839) locality data are incorrect.

Locality: Sur Masirah, Masirah Island, Oman, Indian Ocean.
Collector: R. Moolenbeek and H. Dekker, Nov. 22, 1991.
Remarks: The holotype is ZMA Moll. 3.92.033, and additional paratypes are ZMA 3.92.034, and in BMNH, LACM, MM, NHMO, NMNZ, NMW, and RMS (Dance et al., 1992: 232, 235). This taxon is only provisionally placed in Umbonium Link, 1807 (Bosch et al., 1995: 36).
Vanikoro incerta Usticke, 1959: 48
Holotype: lost.
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: G.W.N. Usticke.
Remarks: The holotype by monotypy is not in AMNH and is considered lost. The species was never figured and is a nomen dubium (Faber, 1988: 81).
Vanikoro millerae Usticke, 1959: 48, pl. 3, fig. 3
Holotype: AMNH 195423.
Paratypes: AMNH 192805 (22 specimens).
Locality: Ham Bay, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #510. The type locality was given by Usticke (1959: 48) as both Cane Bay and Ham Bay; the latter is the only locality given subsequently (Usticke, 1969; 1971) and is probably the correct one. This taxon is placed in the genus Megalomphalus Brusina, 1871 (Rolán and Rubio, 1998: 36).
Vasum aldridgei Usticke, 1969: 18–19, pl. 4, fig. 834
Lectotype: AMNH 168901.
Paralectotype: AMNH 189620 (1 specimen).
Locality: Puerto Rico (AMNH 189620), Rat Island, Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda (AMNH 168901), Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown (AMNH 189620); R. Aldridge (AMNH 168901).
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #834 (AMNH 189620) and Aldridge Collection (AMNH 168901). Usticke (1971: 12) stated that the “30 mm” specimen from Antigua (which is not the larger figured specimen, erroneously labeled “26 mm”) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 18–19) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. In spite of Usticke's (1969) incorrect indication of deposition of the “paratype”; the smaller, “holotype,” specimen from Antigua is the only one that was present in the AMNH collections in 1969. Vokes (1976, 1992) and Faber (1995) are incorrect as to the identity of the lectotype. The repository of additional paralectotypes (if any) is unknown. This taxon is placed in the genus Attiliosa Emerson, 1968 (Faber, 1988: 70–71).
Vasum globulum antiguensis Usticke, 1969: 19, pl. 4, fig. 837
Lectotype: AMNH 195435.
Locality: Fort James, Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #837. Usticke (1971: 15) stated that this specimen was the holotype. Because Usticke (1969: 19) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action constituted a lectotype designation. The repository of the paralectotypes is unknown; their existence is indicated by Usticke's (1969: 19) given size range for the taxon of 30–35 mm length. This taxon is a synonym of V. globulum (Lamarck, 1816) (Faber, 1988: 71).
Vasum stephanti Emerson and Sage, 1988: 36–38, figs. 1–6
Holotype: AMNH 225987.
Paratypes: AMNH 225988 (1 specimen; lost), 225989 (1 specimen), 225990 (1 specimen; now USNM).
Locality: 183–220 m, 13–16 km east, 80–96 km south of Cape Gardafui (Ras Asir), Somalia, Indian Ocean.
Collector: “Shrimp fishermen,” Dec. 1986.
Remarks: Additional paratypes are in the collections of J. Bernard and A. Stephant (Emerson and Sage, 1988: 38). AMNH 225988 was removed by person or persons unknown from the office of W. Emerson circa 1991 (Emerson, personal commun.). It is extremely unlikely that it will ever be returned and must be considered lost. AMNH 225990 was deaccessioned in 1993 and sent to USNM as an exchange. An extremely similar and sympatric species, V. lactisfloris Ferrario, 1983, may prove to be the senior synonym of V. stephanti (Ferrario and Bozzetti, 1991: 29).
Vexillum (Pusia) chickcharneorum Lyons and Kaicher, 1978: 544–546, figs. 1–4
Paratypes: AMNH 183747 (2 specimens).
Locality: North side of Stocking Island, Great Exuma, Bahamas, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: W. Lyons, June 23, 1974.
Remarks: The holotype is USNM 758543, and additional paratypes are ANSP 345016, BMNH 1977165, FSCB I 17864, 17866, and USNM 758544 (Lyons and Kaicher, 1978: 544).
Vexillum coronense J. Cate, 1968: 88, pl. 11, figs. 5a–b
Paratype: AMNH 203845 (1 specimen).
Locality: 12°10′N, 120°13′E, Coron Island, Calamian Group, Philippines, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Cate Collection #12382. The holotype is CAS 13112 (J. Cate, 1968: 89). This taxon is a synonym of Vexillum (Costellaria) militaris (Reeve, 1845) (Cernohorsky, 1970: 55).
Vexillum kewaloensis J. Cate, 1963: 26–27, pl. 5, figs. 1–5
Paratype: AMNH 203837 (1 specimen).
Locality: Kewalo, Oahu, Hawaii, United States, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: M. Schick, 1929.
Remarks: ex Cate Collection (no number). The holotype is USNM 333316 (J. Cate, 1963: 27). J. Cate (1963: 27, table 1) cited 5 “hypotypes” in USNM and the Ostergaard Collection and 1 “paratype” in her collection (now AMNH 203837), but listed “hypotype 1…USNM 217083” and “four paratypes in the collection of Jens. M. Ostergaard…and one in my own collection” [now AMNH 203837] in the text. The status of USNM 217083 and the Ostergaard specimens is unclear, although they should probably all be considered paratypes because J. Cate (1963: 27) clearly linked her specimen to the Ostergaard ones in the text (as “paratypes”), and then linked the Ostergaard specimens to USNM 217083 in the table (as “hypotypes”). In any case, it is clear that the AMNH specimen is a paratype. This taxon is a synonym of V. (Costellaria) fortiplicatum (Pease, 1868) (Kay, 1979: 320).
Vexillum micra Pilsbry, 1921: 317–318
Syntypes: AMNH 188699 (2 specimens), 203840 (2 specimens).
Locality: 25–50 fathoms, off Waikiki, Oahu, Hawaii, United States, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: D. Langford, 1916.
Remarks: ex Thaanum Collection #5252. The species was not figured by Pilsbry (1921), nor did he designate a holotype. Another lot of this species (AMNH 189133) is from the type locality and the same collector in the same year but is not considered a syntype because of its different Thaanum catalog number (#3267) and identification by Thaanum as Mitra pacifica Reeve, 1845 (= Vexillum (Costellaria) pacificum). This taxon is placed in the subgenus Costellaria Swainson, 1840 (Kay, 1979: 321, fig. 107d).
Vexillum moana J. Cate, 1963: 28–29, pl. 5, figs. 6–10
Paratypes: AMNH 203838 (3 specimens).
Locality: 200–300 ft, off Waikiki, Oahu, Hawaii, United States, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: D. Langford, 1917.
Remarks: ex Thaanum Collection #8397; Cate Collection (no number). The holotype is USNM 338665, and the additional paratypes are USNM 333027 (J. Cate, 1963: 28). J. Cate (1963: 28) listed the Thaanum specimens as “hypotypes” in the text, but as numbered “paratypes” in table 2. This taxon is a synonym of V. (Costellaria) leucozonias Deshayes, 1834 (Kay, 1979: 321).
Vexillum regina filiareginae J. Cate, 1961: 80–81, pl. 18, figs. 6a–b; pl. 19, fig. 6; pl. 20, figs. 1–10

Cate's paratypes #2, 14, 15, 28, 29, and 32, respectively. The holotype is SU 8623; paratype #1 is CAS 12366; paratypes #4, 8, 10–13, 19, 20 are in the collection of F. Dayrit; paratypes #6, 7 were in the collection of A. D'Attilio (current repository unknown); paratype #21 is in the collection of J. and R. Burch; paratype #22 is in USNM; paratype #23 is MCZ 231605; paratype #24 is in BMNH (J. Cate, 1961: 82). The current repository of paratypes 5, 9, 16–18, 25, 27, 30, and 31 (formerly in the Cate Collection) is unknown. This taxon is a synonym of V. (V.) regina Sowerby, 1828 (Cernohorsky, 1970: 53).

Paratypes: AMNH 204373 (1 specimen), 204428 (1 specimen), 213446 (1 specimen).
Locality: 10–25 ft, Sorrento Reef, north of Fremantle, Western Australia, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: B. Wilson, Jan. 7, 1962 (AMNH 204373), T. Sutcliffe (AMNH 204428), B. Wilson and R. George, April 22, 1962 (AMNH 213446).
Remarks: ex C. and J. Cate Collection (AMNH 204373, 204428) and R. Summers Collection (AMNH 213446). AMNH 204373 is Cate's (1962b: 7) “hypotype 12” (Cate Collection #1515). AMNH 204428 is C. Cate's (1962b: 7) “hypotype 3” (Cate Collection #1461) and was figured by C. Cate (1962b: pl. 3, figs. 3a–b). AMNH 213446 is C. Cate's (1962b: 7) “hypotype 8” (Summers Collection). The holotype was in the collection of F. Schilder #13344 (current repository unknown). and the additional 7 paratypes were in the collections of C. Weaver (1 specimen), T. Hartley (3 specimens), M. Cramer (1 specimen), and an unknown collector (2 specimens) (C. Cate, 1962b: 7; F. Schilder, 1963: 127). This taxon is a synonym of Z. venusta episema (Iredale, 1939) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 44).

Non-type Gastropoda
Cerithium floridanum “form” cruzana Usticke, 1959: 38, 40, pl. 2, fig. 16
“Holotype”: AMNH 198496.
“Paratype”: AMNH 294370 (1 specimen).
Locality: St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #355 (AMNH 198496) and Schwartz Collection (AMNH 294370). Although cited by Faber (1988: 76) as an available name, this taxon was expressly considered a “form” and a “variety” by Usticke (1959: 38, 40) and was included as a “form” on the list of “new species and subspecies” where he designated holotypes (Usticke, 1959: vi), but it was cited as “Cerithium floridanum cruzana” in the plate caption. Because of Usticke's (1959) expressed designation of this taxon (intentional or not) as a form on his list of new species and subspecies, we consider this name to be one expressly proposed for an infrasubspecific taxon before 1961 and not treated as an available name prior to 1985. AMNH 198496 and 294370 consequently have no standing as type specimens. This is C. atratum (Born, 1778) (Faber, 1988: 76).
Cerithium variabile var. calcarea Usticke, 1959: 41
“Syntypes”: AMNH 192174 (5 specimens).
Locality: Shoy Point, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: G. W. N. Usticke, 1956.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection. Although cited by Faber (1988: 74) as an available name, this taxon was expressly considered a “var.” and a “distinct minor variety” by Usticke (1959: 41), and it was not included on the list of “new species and subspecies” where he designated holotypes (Usticke, 1959: vi) nor was it figured. Because of Usticke's (1959) omission of this taxon (intentional or not) from his list of new species and subspecies, we consider this name to be one expressly proposed for an infrasubspecific taxon before 1961 and not treated as an available name prior to 1985. AMNH 192174 consequently has no standing as type specimens. This is C. lutosum Menke, 1828 (Faber, 1988: 74).
Conus nulli-secundus Usticke, 1968: 20–21, pl. 2, figs. 1010[a], 1010[b]. 1010[c]
“Lectotype”: AMNH 195449.
Locality: Kingstown Harbor, St. Vincent, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #1010. Usticke (1971: 19) stated that one specimen (now AMNH 195449) was the holotype. Because Usticke (1968: 20–21) did not designate a holotype, Usticke's (1971) action would have constituted a lectotype designation, had this name been introduced for a new species, and not as an unnecessary replacement name for C. cedonulli Linnaeus, 1758. Because the type(s) of a replacement name are the same as the type(s) of the original name, AMNH 195449 is not a type specimen. Usticke (1969: 24) erroneously listed this taxon as new from the 1969 paper and later (1971: 19) listed it as a new name. The taxon is correctly cited without the hyphen as C. nullisecundus and is a synonym of C. cedonulli (Faber, 1988: 87).
Cypraea (Trona) zebra var. vallei Jaume and Borro, 1946: 21–22
“Syntypes”: AMNH 107588 (1 specimen), AMNH 196008 (2 specimens).
Locality: 120 ft, off Bacuranao (AMNH 107588), 82 fathoms, off Chorrera (AMNH 196008), Cuba, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: M. Jaume and C. Finlay (AMNH 107588).
Remarks: ex Jaume (AMNH 107588), ex C. Cate (AMNH 196008). Although AMNH 107588 was cited as a paratype by Richards and Old (1969: 36), this taxon was described expressly as a variety before 1961 and, as such, cannot not have a type series. Jaume and Borro (1946) did not designate a holotype for this taxon, as they did for the other new species described in that publication, further suggesting their intent as to varietal status. We cannot find evidence of this taxon being considered as subspecific by any author and, therefore, consider it infrasubspecific. The additional “syntypes” are in the collection of M. Jaume (#20813), in MPUH, and in various private collections (Jaume and Borro, 1946: 22). This taxon is a synonym of Macrocypraea zebra (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lorenz and Hubert, 1993: 53).
Epitonium (Nitidoscala [sic]) tinctum bormanni Strong, 1941: 46–47
“Paratypes”: AMNH 221878 (13 specimens), AMNH 275636 (1 specimen).
Locality: Mission Beach, San Diego, San Diego Co., California, United States, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: R. Bormann, 1940.
Remarks: ex R. Bormann via DuShane Collection, ex SBMNH. The “holotype” is LACM 1064 (Strong, 1941: 47). Strong repeatedly interchanged the words “form” and “var.” in his description of this taxon, indicating that E. tinctum bormanni was explicitly described at the infrasubspecific level and, therefore, can have no type series. This taxon is a form of E. (Hyaloscala) tinctum (Carpenter, 1865) (Weil et al., 1999: 198).
Nerita versicolor form nigrocincta Usticke, 1959: 32, pl. 2, fig. 14
“Holotype”: AMNH 195409.
Locality: Christiansted Harbor, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Usticke Collection #194. Although cited by Faber (1988: 86) as an available name, this taxon was expressly considered a “form” and a “variety” by Usticke (1959: 32) and was not included on the list of “new species and subspecies” where he designated holotypes (Usticke, 1959: vi), but it was cited as “Nerita versicolor nigrocincta” in the plate caption. Because of Usticke's (1959) omission of this taxon (intentional or not) from his list of new species and subspecies, we consider this name to be one expressly proposed for an infrasubspecific taxon before 1961 and not treated as an available name prior to 1985. AMNH 195409 consequently has no standing as a type specimen. This is N. versicolor Gmelin, 1791 (Faber, 1988: 86).
Oliva duclosiana Jay, 1850: 367
“Syntypes”: AMNH 89390 (2 specimens).
Locality: None given.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Jay Collection #9390 (Jay, 1850). One specimen was figured by Greifeneder and Tursch (1996: pl. 2, fig. 16). Jay (1850: 367) provided no description for this species but referred only to “Duclos Mon., pl. 8, f. 9, 10.” Jay (1850) introduced this name as a replacement for O. jaspidea Duclos, 1835, non Gmelin, 1791. The type series of O. duclosiana Jay is therefore the same as O. jaspidea Duclos, and the AMNH specimens are not types, contrary to the statement of Richards and Old (1969: 67). Syntypes of O. jaspidea Duclos, and therefore of O. duclosiana, are in MNHN (Greifeneder and Tursch, 1996: 166). The homonymy of O. jaspidea has been resolved, and O. duclosiana is a synonym of O. jaspidea Duclos, 1835 (Greifeneder and Tursch, 1996: 166).
Oliva incrassata forma burchorum Zeigler, 1969: 15, fig. 1
“Holotype”: AMNH 147749.
Locality: San Felipe, Baja California Norte, Mexico, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: The “paratypes” are in the collections of H. Porreca and R. Zeigler (Zeigler, 1969: 15). The name “burchorum” was proposed expressly at the infrasubspecific level (Zeigler, 1969: 14) and, thus, no type specimens are recognized. This is a form of O. incrassata Lightfoot, 1786 (Abbott, 1974: 232).
Oliva tremulina forma oldi Zeigler, 1969: 16–17, fig. 2
“Holotype”: AMNH 147750.
Locality: Buin, Bougainville, Solomon Islands, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: A. Voyce, 1958.
Remarks: The “paratypes” are in the collections of J. Burch, W. Krause, and R. Zeigler (Zeigler, 1969: 17). The name “oldi” was proposed expressly at the infrasubspecific level (Zeigler, 1969: 14) and, thus, no type specimens are recognized.
Olivella stegeri Olsson, 1956: 176: pl. 14, fig. 10
Non-types: AMNH 92329 (1 specimen), AMNH 107619 (1 specimen), AMNH 194660 (1 specimen).
Locality: 78–90 fathoms, southwest of Egmont Key, Hillsborough Co., Florida, United States, Atlantic Ocean.
Collector: D. Steger.
Remarks: The holotype is ANSP 194587 (Olsson, 1956). The specimens listed above were cited by Richards and Old (1969) as possible paratypes. They are not part of the type series, because the type locality is “one hundred miles east of Alacran, Mexico in 28 fathoms” (Olsson, 1956: 176).
Potadoma superba mut. inculta Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927: 287, pl. 25, figs. 5, 5a
“Holotype”: AMNH 72075.
“Paratypes”: AMNH 72076 (3 specimens).
Locality: 00°55′N, 25°05′E to 00°50′N, 28°00′E, Tshopo River, Stanleyville (= Kisangani), Belgian Congo (= Zaire = Democratic Republic of the Congo), Africa.
Collector: H. Lang and J. Bequaert, 1909–1915.
Remarks: Pilsbry and Bequaert (1927: 287) did not specify the number of specimens they examined. The repository of the additional specimen missing from AMNH 72076 is unknown. Additional “paratypes” are MCZ 41038 (10 specimens). Because Pilsbry and Bequaert (1927) expressly considered this taxon a “new mutation,” it is infrasubspecific and has no type series. This taxon is probably a synonym of P. superba Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927, which is a synonym of P. ponthiervillensis (Dupuis and Putzeys, 1900) (Brown, 1980: 103).
Turbo petholatus var. humerosus Smith, 1907: 5–6, fig. 2
“Syntypes”: AMNH 128749a (8 specimens).
Locality: Philippines, Pacific Ocean.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Stuart Collection. This name was proposed expressly as a variety and has not been used in a specific or subspecific sense subsequently. Although these specimens have no standing as types, they are cited here to call attention to this long-forgotten name. The three additional shouldered specimens of this variety cited by Smith (1907: 5) from the Haines, Jay, and Crooke Collections cannot be located in AMNH. None of the specimens in AMNH match the shell figured by Smith (1907: fig. 2). This is a synonym of T. petholatus Linnaeus, 1758 (new synonymy).
Voluta (Aulica) hargreavesi Angas, 1872: 613, pl. 42, fig. 13
“Holotype”: AMNH 8304.
Locality: Unknown.
Collector: Unknown.
Remarks: ex Steward Collection #1971. Richards and Old (1969: 117) summarized the limited information about this shell. They noted that it did not match exactly the size given by Angas (1872) for his unique specimen. AMNH 8304 is the same size as the figure of the shell in Angas (1872: pl. 42, fig. 13) and matches the description. However, the AMNH shell is much more worn than suggested by Angas's (1872) figure, and the color pattern is quite different. Based on the available evidence, we are inclined to consider AMNH 8304 an old specimen of this taxon, but we think its holotype status is unlikely. This taxon is placed in the genus Volutoconus Crosse, 1871 (Poppe and Goto, 1992: 214).
