  • noticeably flatter than in figure Extension of the little white line (dors [dorsal] post [posterior] of her figure to form the umbo would be about right All 3 spec [specimens] show the puckered lines mentioned [Below paragraph crossed out with an "X"] 4 paratypes are all young specimens as is the type. They are variable in spacing of strial. One has 6 in 48 mm [millimeters] another 9.

[specimen] Vancouver Island. Point of post [posterior] extremity broken off on both valves. Cuticle reddish brown, probably as result of age + treatment.

Form of muscle scars as in my specimen of myalis [underlined] In my judgement this is myalis [underlined] without a shadow of a doubt. Cuticle has the same dull texture + lacks the gleam of limatula Blade not elevated as much as in my specimen, which is to say there is no blade. Linule is in my spec [specimen] This name is available for the Pacific species if it is distinguishable from the Atlantic form.
