Gastropoda

Description

GASTROPODA

" Ptychoris " see Gabb (1876b). Remarks: Gabb (1876b: 291) mentioned that Athleta purpuriformis (Forbes, 1846) and Athleta scrobiculata Stoliczka, 1867 –1868 might belong to a new genus, and Gabb informally suggested that it could possibly be named Ptychoris. Wenz (1943: 1322) erroneously reported that Gabb had officially named this genus, but Gabb did not describe it nor did he designate a type species.

gracilior (Cancellaria) Carpenter in Gabb, 1869a: 50, unfigured. Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara Co. California; Pleistocene? Type Material: Type material not located (Stewart 1927: 291); holotype UCMP 15530 and paratype UCMP 15531 (Palmer 1958: 223, pl. 26, figs. 6, 7 respectively). Remarks: Gabb's description of this species was quoted from Carpenter (in lit.). Admete gracilior (Carpenter in Gabb, 1869a), according to Arnold (1903: 219, pl. 7, fig. 4).
