  • May 26, 1960 Spent the low tide in early AM [morning] at Yakoun Point a few miles 2 [+/-] W [west] of Tow Hill. A very rich collecting area for molluscs. At half tide beds of clay + sandstone contained Pholadidea penita + Barlea[?]. Shallow tide pools on top of base of central reef contained colonies of Zirphea [Zirfaea] that were seldom if ever dry. Thais [illegible word], emarginata lima + lamellosa. all Acmaes of this [illegible word]. A few Amphissa columbiana, Searlesia at 3' [foot] level - found one actively eating a Thais emarginata slightly smaller than itself. Head, with proboscis extruded was inside aperture of Thais + foot surrounded the base. On the west side of the point a colony of Siphonaria occupied the fucus. These creatures had a large body for their shell + clung only loosely to the alga.
