This checklist is automatically generated using Version 3.0 of the online database CDF Galapagos Species Checklist.
Molluscs are a large group of animals presenting bilateral symmetry (sometimes secondary), with soft
unsegmented bodies which in most species are protected by a shell.
Although marine mollusks represent one of the best studied and largest group of marine invertebrates it is
still not known for the majority of species whether these are native to the archipelago or if they were
introduced (see below: origin of the taxa included in this checklist).
For marine species distribution data cited in the CDF Galapagos Checklists refer to the five main bioregions of the archipelago (Far
Northern, Northern, Western, South Eastern and the Elithabeth Bay Bioregion). For the terrestrial species the more than 120 islands,
islets and small rocks have been aggregated into Islands Groups, thus, for example, the island group “Santa Cruz” includes smaller
islands like Santa Fé, Plaza Norte, Plaza Sur, Baltra, Daphne Mayor, Daphne Minor, and others.
Please be aware that the distribution data presented here is automatically generated from specimen records and does not always
accurately reflect the known distribution for all species.
IUCN red-list assessments presented here may deviate from the global IUCN list for the following reasons:
- for well known species groups like vascular plants or vertebrates updates proposed to the IUCN are shown instead of the outdated,
but currently accepted status;
- for poorly known species groups (e.g., lichenized fungi) a general assessment is currently not possible and the list presented here is a
regional red-list list for Galapagos archipelago.
Names of taxa included in this checklist: 1154 (883 Accepted , 31 Unidentified Taxon , 200 Doubtful , 2
Problematic , 1 New to Science), 37 rejected.
Origin of the taxa included: 149 Endemic, 78 Indigenous, 2 Questionable Endemic.

Acanthinucella lugubris (Sowerby, 1822)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Although it is mentioned in Keen (1971), the occurrence of this species in the
Galapagos seems doubtful. Only one lot is recorded from the Galapagos Isl. in the CAS collection (CAS 259,
ex Oldroyd), but an inaccurate locality of anything this old in the CAS collection may be dubious (see also
Finet, 1985 1994, and Kaiser, 1997: 53).

5.
Acanthochitona cf. avicula (Carpenter, 1866)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Specimens of a possible new species from the Galapagos were referred provisionally
to Acanthochitona avicula (Smith Ferreira, 1977). This is the reason why this species was listed among the
species of verified occurrence in Finet (1985), Skoglund (1989), Finet (1991 and 1994). Kaiser (1997: 47)
has rejected A. avicula from the Galápagos fauna, referring to Watters (1990), as avicula does not seem to
occur south of the tip of Lower California.

Acanthopleura echinata (Barnes, 1824)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
USNM: 59575; Finet (2001): According to Smith Ferreira (1977), the occurrence of this species in
the Galapagos is questionable: “Stearns reported this large South American chiton from the Galapagos

CDF Checklist of Galapagos Marine mollusks
Islands based on a specimen in the U.S. National Museum under the name Acanthochiton spinifera (USNM
59575)”. ... “Dall included the Galapagos Islands in citing its range, which extends from Paita, Peru, to
Valparaiso, Chile, on the mainland. Pilsbry also includes the Galapagos group for this species based on
specimens in the collections of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia”. “This conspicuous chiton”
... “can hardly be mistaken for any other species. It was not collected by Snodgrass and Heller during the
Hopkins-Stanford Expedition of 1898-1899, nor by Ochsner during the 1905-1906 California Academy
Expedition. No specimens were collected in Galapagos in 1964 by the senior author, or the local collectors.
Why the species has not been collected in the Galapagos Islands in recent years is a mystery. Inclusion of
Acanthopleura echinatum in the permanent chiton fauna of the Galapagos Islands is therefore withheld
pending its possible re-discovery” (Smith Ferreira, 1977). The question was also discussed in Finet (1985 and
1994). The species was quoted again from Galápagos by Aalamo Valdivieso (1987) in their “Lista
sistematica de moluscos marinos del Peru”, but Kaiser (1987: 47) includes it in her list of species of rejected
occurrence.

by Finet (1985 1991), on the basis of material recorded in the LACM (several lots, for example nrs. LACM
72-196 LACM-AHF 438), but identification has not been verified and may be erroneous (see also Finet,

Finet (2001): Mentioned from the Galapagos by Bernard (1983), by Skoglund (1991), citing the
former, and listed again by Bernard et al. (1991). It seems that all the lots identified by Bernard et al. (1991)
were misidentified (LACM 34-43, 34-61, 72-196); actually, they appear to be Pseudopythina stearnsii (Dall,

Anomia adamas Gray, 1850
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
BMNH: 1964538 (remaining syntype, from “Lord Hood’s Isl., Galapagos”) ?; Finet (2001):
Although it was originally described from “Lord Hood’s Island, Galapagos”, and subsequently cited from the
same place in old literature, we are unable to confirm the occurrence of the species in the Galapagos
Archipelago. There may also have been a confusion about type locality between Hood (= Española) Isl. in the
Galapagos, and Lord Hood Island in the Central Pacific. It may also be a synonym of Anomia peruviana
d’Orbigny, 1846; Keen (1971) lists A. adamas as a valid species, but admits that it can be “possibly only a
color form of A. peruviana, with which some authors synonymize it.” (see also Gemmell et al., 1987: 28-29).

? Syn.: Anomia adamas Gray, 1850; Finet (2001): No material from the Galapagos could be
examined by the author to verify the occurrence of the species. As Anomia adamas Gray, 1850 is a possible
synonym of A. peruviana (see Keen, 1971: 101; Gemmell et al., 1987: 28-29), records mentioning A. adamas
from the Galapagos may have to be listed with those of A. peruviana.

Arene ferruginosa McLean, 1970
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Finet (2001): Type locality of Arene ferruginosa is not Galápagos. However, in his paper with the
original description of the species, McLean (1970: 123) referred also to 3 specimens from the Galápagos
collected by the Allan Hancock expedition (AHF station 430, in 150 fathoms at Wenman Island). On the
basis of this record, the occurrence of the species in the Archipelago was subsequently repeated by McLean
in Keen (1971 : “dwarf specimens have been taken off the Galápagos Islands...”), and by Finet (1985; 1991;
1994) and Kaiser (1993). But the specimens from AHF station 430 are juveniles not easily identifiable;
actually, they proved not to pertain to the species A. ferruginosa, as they were later redetermined by McLean
(in litt., 1995) as Arene echinata (now LACM 34-264.2: two specimens) and Arene guttata (now LACM
34-264.3: one specimen), respectively. Actually, there seems to be no other available record to document the
occurrence of Arene ferruginosa in the Galápagos, which is thus better listed as a species with a dubious
occurrence. This question was first discussed in Finet (1995).
Galapagos Distribution: Unknown.

Galapagos Islands by a few authors, no verified material available to us has confirmed its occurrence in the
Archipelago (see also Finet, 1985 1994). The Galapagos record mentioned by Bernard (1983) is probably in
error (Coan, pers. comm., in Skoglund, 1991). Besides, it has been rejected by Bernard et al. (1991: 33).

fathoms) (Albatross expedition, U.S. Fish Commission station 3392). Hertz (1977) has mentioned and
figured a specimen from the J. Grundman collection; the specimen was said to have been brought back by the
Ameripagos expedition to the Galápagos, but no precise collecting data was available. For this reason, and
because the Ameripagos expedition explored only shallow waters near the islands, we consider this record,
which was also repeated by Skoglund (1991) and Kaiser (1993), as doubtful.

probably not living around the Galapagos Archipelago. The specimen figured in McLean (1970: fig. 6) and
in Keen (1971: fig. 79) and reported from off Floreana Island (Galapagos) probably belongs to another (deep

Cancellaria chrysostoma Sowerby, 1832
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
AMNH: 12803, USNM: ? 56028 (identification not verified). Finet (2001): Carpenter (1857) and
Stearns (1893) were the only authors to mention the species from the Galapagos in old literature. The
specimen n° 12803 in the AMNH: (“Galapagos Isl., ex Haines collection”) may have an erroneous locality,
as anything this old from a private collection does not necessarily have reliable data. The identification of the
lot USNM: 56028 (“Galapagos Isl., ex W.H. Dall”), also old and without accurate data, was not verified. On
the other hand, the material recorded from the Galapagos in the LACM: (nrs. AHF 82-33, AHF 177-34, AHF
785-38, plus several other specimens) was misidentified as Cancellaria chrysostoma Sowerby, 1832, but is
Cancellaria haemastoma Sowerby, 1832. This leads me to suspect all records of C. chrysostoma from the
Galapagos to be based upon erroneous localities or misidentifications, in which case the occurrence of the
species in the Archipelago would be spurious or at least dubious. The question was also discussed in Finet
(1994):

Finet (2001): Although the type material (Lectotype USNM 110720, Paralectotypes USNM 887579
and MCZ 27857) is not from the Galápagos (type locality is off San Diego, California, in 339 fathoms), Dall
(1908) mentioned in his original description material collected in other stations, one of those stations being
near the Galápagos (east of the archipelago, in 1322 fathoms). The species was subsequently reported (as
doubtful) from the Galápagos by Keen (1971), noting that “records from the Galápagos probably represent
misidentifications”. BERNARD (1974, 1983) and Skoglund (1991) state that the distribution of the species
(28° N - 60° N) is north of the Panamic Province, which would mean that all other records, including those
from the Galápagos, are probably spurious.

Cerithium gallapaginis Sowerby, 1855, ex A. Adams, MS
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Syn.: “Cerithium interruptum Menke” auct., non Menke, 1851 (nec Lamarck, 1804); Finet (2001):
Cerithium interruptum Menke, 1851 (non Lamarck, 1804), preoccupied and replaced by the name Cerithium
menkei Carpenter, 1857, has been treated as a synonym of Cerithium gallapaginis Sowerby by several
authors (Carpenter, 1857: 189; Stearns, 1893; Dall, 1909); it seems however that both species are distinct and
valid.

Cerithium menkei Carpenter, 1857 (non Deshayes, 1863)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Syn.: Cerithium interruptum Menke, 1851 (non Lamarck, 1804); Finet (2001): A few authors
(Carpenter, 1857: 360; Dall, 1909) have cited “Cerithium interruptum Menke” from the Galapagos,
considering also with other authors that it was a synonym of Cerithium gallapaginis Sowerby, 1855.
Actually, the true Cerithium interruptum of Menke, 1851 (non Lamarck, 1804) is probably a distinct species,
replaced by the name C. menkei Carpenter, and whether it really occurs in the Galapagos is doubtful and
remains a subject for further investigation, as the citations of Cerithium interruptum Menke, of authors,
probably refer to Cerithium gallapaginis Sowerby, 1855.

Conus luzonicus Hwass in Bruguière, 1792
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): A junior synonym of Conus ermineus Born, 1778, this species is distributed in the
Atlantic Ocean in both the Caribbean and West-African provinces. A “variety” with no nomenclatural status
has been described and mentioned from the Galapagos by Sowerby (1834: 18); it has also been cited from the
Archipelago by Müller (1836) and by Carpenter (1857: 184, 360). The occurrence of the species in the
Galapagos is also discussed by Dall (1910). Actually, the records could be based on misidentifications of

Hood’s Island” (Sowerby, 1833, Conch. Illustr., pt. 24, fig. 6; Broderip, 1833, Proc. Zool Soc. London: 53),
was recorded from the Galapagos (Iguana Cove, Albemarle Isl.) by Pilsbry Vanatta (1902). The latter record
may have been based on specimens of Conus nux Broderip, 1833. Walls (1979) regards C. nux as a Panamic
subspecies of Conus sponsalis Hwass, an Indo-Pacific species and a senior synonym of Conus nanus
Sowerby, but this may be set aside by most revisers.

perforans is a Californian species. The Panamic form of C. perforans, as well as the specimens from the

Diodora pica (Sowerby, 1835)
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Finet (2001): Although the locality of the type lot is Santa Elena, W. Columbia, Sowerby (1835), in
his original description, mentioned also the Galapagos Islands as locality for the species. Müller (1836),
Carpenter (1835), Stearns (1893), Metivier (1968), Finet (1991) and Skoglund (1992) also recorded the
species from the Galapagos, sometimes considering pica as a variety of D. inaequalis (Sowerby) (Carpenter,
1857: 360; Stearns, 1893; Metivier, 1968). Actually, both species are separate, but specimens of Diodora
inaequalis were sometimes misidentified as Diodora pica in museum collections, and records of pica from the
Galapagos may have been based upon such misidentifications (see also Finet, 1994).

Distorsio minoruohnishii Parth, 1989
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): One lot of specimens from the Galapagos Islands is in the LACM (n° 34-198.5, ex
AHF 324-35); this material was previously referred to Distorsio constricta (Broderip, 1833), and has now
been reidentified as the new Distorsio minoruohnishii Parth (fide L. Groves, in litt., 1994). But this would be
the only record of this species from the Galapagos known to us, so that we prefer to keep it in the list of
species with a doubtful occurrence until it can be confirmed by other records.

Fissurella longifissa Sowerby, 1863
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Finet (2001): Reported from the Galapagos by Metivier (1968); the syntypes, from the Cuming
collection (BMNH n° 1966388) are of uncertain locality: “Peru or Galapagos or Nicaragua”; Sowerby (1866,
Thes. Conch. III : pl. IV, fig. 66) gave no locality in his description; Pilsbry (in Tryon, 1890) says “Habitat
unknown” but gives a description based on a specimen from the Galapagos; later on, Pilsbry Vanatta (1902)
also cite the Galapagos (Tagus Cove and Point Christopher, Isabela Isl.) as locality for longifissa ,
considering that it is a color form and thus a synonym of Fissurella macrotrema Sowerby, 1835, the latter
species being furthermore synonymized in their paper with Fissurella obscura Sowerby, 1835. The
examination of the type specimens of Fissurella longifissa (Finet, 1994) shows that the species seems more
closely related to Fissurella obscura than to F. macrotrema or virescens; although being eroded beach
63
2011

specimens, the syntypes of longifissa show form and colour patterns resembling those of obscura (see Finet,
1994). Fissurella obscura is supposed to be endemic to the Galapagos, while F. longifissa is known from the
mainland between Central America and northern Peru. Whether both taxa are valid and separate, or represent
different morphs or environmental expressions of the same species (in this case, longifissa would be a junior
synonym of obscura) remains a question for further research. The question was also discussed in Finet, 1994.

Fissurella virescens Sowerby, 1835

Dall, 1909; AMNH: 20071, 20074, ANSP: 39231, 39234, LACM: n° A.6186.52a, BMNH: 1966387
(Syntypes of Fissurella nigropunctata Sowerby, 1835, type locality: Galapagos). Although having been
mentioned by so many authors as occurring in the Galapagos, it seems that neither Fissurella virescens
Sowerby, nor the form nigropunctata Sowerby (a synonym), nor macrotrema Sowerby (another synonym)
actually occur in the Galapagos. The type locality indicated for Fissurella nigropunctata, showing black
crests on the radial ribs, is “Galapagos Isl., and Lobos Isl., under stones on shore”. If it holds true for Lobos
Isl. (Peru), the “Galapagos” locality is probably spurious. The only other records of virescens - nigropuncata
from the “Galapagos” are in old collections of some museums, without accurate or reliable data, and are
therefore dubious (AMNH 20071 20074, ex private collection; ANSP 39231 39234, ex J.S. Phillips Fund;
LACM A.6186.52a, ex Ball collection). No other specimens collected in the Galapagos are known. As for
Fissurella macrotrema, the original series of 11 syntypes (BMNH 1966384) was mounted separately in 3 lots,
corresponding to the 3 unnamed varieties described by Sowerby from 3 different localities, one of them being
the Galapagos (Finet, 1994). The syntypes were not all conspecific, but designation of a lectotype for
macrotrema (Finet, 1994) makes it a synonym of F. virescens, with Lobos Isl. as type locality; other
conspecific paralectotypes were described as a variety from Lambeyeque. The variety described from the
Galapagos (one lot of 3 specimens) was redetermined as F. obscura Sowerby, a true Galapagan species
distinct from Fissurella virescens (see Finet, 1994, 1995). The specimen from the Galapagos figured as
Fissurella macrotrema by McLean in Keen (1971: fig. 36) (LACM-AHF 178-34) has been tentatively
redetermined by McLean (in litt., 1993) as Fissurella cf. obscura (see Finet, 1994). Other specimens from the
64
2011
CDF Checklist of Galapagos Marine mollusks
Galapagos previously identified as F. macrotrema in museum collections have now also been reidentified
(LACM: F. obscura, several specimens; USNM 122129: is Fissurella deroyae Mc Lean, 1970). In my
opinion, all the foregoing citations of F. virescens, nigropunctata or macrotrema from the Galapagos were
based on the original type locality errors being repeated from one author to another, compounded by
misidentifications of specimens in museum collections. But there seems to be no further trace of the species
on the rocky shores of the Galapagos, and its occurrence there is to be considered spurious or at least
dubious. The question was also detailed in Finet (1994 1995).

Glycymeris inaequalis (Sowerby, 1833)

LACM: 38-188 (fide Kaiser, 1997). Finet (2001): An apparently erroneous record of this species
from the Galapagos by Hertlein Strong (1955) was probably based upon a single specimen of Glycymeris
maculata (Broderip, 1832), misidentified as Glycymeris inaequalis in the CAS collection (CAS 27221 (1
valve)). For this reason, the species was considered doubtful from the Galapagos by Finet (1985 1994). Since
then, more reliable records of G. inaequalis from Galapagos were reported by other authors: Bernard et al.
(1991), Emerson (1995), Kaiser (1997).

Lithophaga calyculata (Carpenter, 1857)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Although this species was repeatedly cited from the Galapagos by the authors
mentioned above, no verified material available to us has confirmed its occurrence in the Archipelago. Some
records may be based upon misidentifications of Lithophaga aristata (Dillwyn) or of other species, as noted
by Olsson (1961): “An unpublished figure of Lithophagus calyculatus, prepared by Carpenter from the type,
is that of a shell closely similar to L. aristata if not identical with it. The shells figured by Soot-Ryen as L.
calyculata from the Mexican coast probably represent another species”. Bernard et al. (1991) however refer
to the collections of the California Academy of Sciences of San Francisco to document their listing of the
species with the fauna of the Galapagos, but without specifying a particular registered lot or a precise
locality. Kaiser (1997) listed the species on the basis of that record by Bernard et al. (1991). So there is a
good chance that L. calyculata is actually present in the Galapagos, but as many identifications referring to
this species have been erroneous in the past, it seems safer to keep it provisionally in the waiting list, until
identification of the CAS material or other specimens from Galapagos is confirmed.

CDF Checklist of Galapagos Marine mollusks
Finet (2001): Acmaea mesoleuca was originally described from Mazatlan, Mexico, but Reeve (1855,
Conch. Icon., Patella , pl. 33, fig. 99 (not 58)) figured a specimen under the name Patella striata (as of Quoy
Gaimard, but quite distinct from their species), reporting it from the Galapagos Islands (Cuming).
Subsequently, Carpenter (1857: 187, 360) and Stearns (1893) cited also from the Galapagos this Patella
striata of Reeve, 1855 (non Quoy Gaimard, 1834), synonym of Acmaea mesoleuca Menke. Hertlein (1937)
confounded Patella striata Reeve and Acmaea striata Quoy Gaimard when he cited the latter species from
both the Indo-Pacific region and the Western Americas, including the Galapagos. Lottia mesoleuca was aslo
reported from the Galapagos in subsequent publications by Dall (1909), Tomlin (1927), Mc Lean in Keen
(1971), Lindberg Mc Lean (1981), von Cosel (1984), Finet (1985, as of doubtful occurrence), Skoglund
(1992, also as of doubtful occurrence) and Emerson (1995, idem); the species was sometimes referred to
Scurria, a genus now considered to be restricted to the west coast of South America (Lindberg, 1988). A few
specimens of Scurria mesoleuca (Menke, 1851) quoted from the Galapagos are present in the collections
examined, but their origin may be uncertain. A single specimen has poor data on its label: “Galapagos Is. J.S. Phillips Fund” (ANSP 39189), and the locality of anything this old in the collection of the ANSP may be
questionable (Robertson, pers. comm.). Two other lots in the LACM are reported from Darwin Bay, Tower
(Genovesa) Island, Galapagos: LACM HH-885 (ex Howard Hill collection) and LACM-AHF 782-38 (A.
Hancock Expedition, 1938); the locality of both lots may be erroneous (Mc Lean, pers. comm.), or it may be
conceivable that the species is occurring only in the northern part of the Galapagos, as Genovesa is the most
northeastern island of the Archipelago; this remains a question for further field research. The question was
also discussed in Finet (1985 and 1994).

Lucapinella callomarginata (Dall, 1871)
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Finet (2001): Originally described from California, this species sometimes has been confounded
with Lucapinella crenifera (Sowerby, 1835). A specimen from Tagus Cove, Isabela Isl. (CAS loc. n° 27221)
misidentified as L. callomarginata, and subsequent citations by Hertlein Strong (1955) and Metivier (1968)
led to include callomarginata in the Galapagos fauna, erroneously as this species is probably restricted to a
more northern (Californian) area.

Mitra muricata (Broderip, 1836)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Syn.: Mitra marshalli Bartsch, 1931. Finet (2001): Mitra muricata Broderip was cited from the
Galapagos by Broderip (1836; original description), Carpenter (1857), Keen (1971), and Finet (1985, but as a
species with a doubtful occurrence). The type locality “Galapagos Islands” given by Broderip is probably
erroneous; furthermore, the board on which the syntypes were glued (BMNH: 1967610, lectotype + 2
paralectotypes) shows “California” as locality. Further and more recent records from the Galapagos may be
based upon misidentifications of Mitra gausapata Reeve, 1845. Cernohorsky (1976) already came to the same
conclusion: “Keen (1971) reports the species from the Galapagos Islands, but the specimens we have seen
from that locality were the related species M. gausapata Reeve. The type locality “Galapagos Islands” is
somewhat suspect, since the original label accompanying the type-specimens of M. muricata reads
“California”. As for Mitra marshalli Bartsch, 1931, now considered a synonym of Mitra muricata (Broderip,
1836), specimens are recorded from the Galapagos Islands under this name in the collections of the LACM:
(nrs. AHF 25-33 AHF 341-35), but they appear to be misidentified specimens of Mitra crenata Broderip,
1836 (see Finet, 1994). However, Kaiser (1997: 54) still mentions other material labeled as Mitra marshalli in
LACM: (nrs. 33-25 34-215) and said to come from Galapagos.

Murexiella vittata (Broderip, 1833)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): This species is mentioned from the Galapagos in Keen (1971), an occurrence also
questioned by von Cosel (1984: 222). Many specimens from the Galapagos are identified as M. vittata in the
collections of the AMNH, of the ANSP, and of the LACM. But they all seem referable to Murexiella
venustula Poorman, 1983 [currently synonymised with Murexiella exigua (Broderip, 1833)], which has also
been collected by other expeditions in the Galapagos. Whether the true Murexiella vittata really occurs in the
Galapagos becomes doubtful (see also Finet, 1985 1994), although Kaiser (1997: 35) mentions again
Murexiella vittata from the Galapagos on the basis of material in the Los Angeles County Museum (LACM
11332, 11340, 34-25, 34-189).

(1986) have evidenced that most records of Nassarius nodicinctus from Galapagos probably refer to a distinct
species, which was described as a new species: N. caelolineatus Nesbitt Pitt, 1986. The true N. nodicinctus
probably does not occur in the Galapagos. Accordingly, the Galapagos citations must be considered as of
Nassarius nodicinctus (A. Adams, auct., non A. Adams, 1852). But we must also admit that the original
locality information of “Galapagos Islands” for the syntypes of the true N. nodicinctus described by A.
Adams from the H. Cuming collection is incorrect. See also Finet (1994).

Nassarius nodifer (Powys, 1835)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Type locality: Galapagos; Finet (2001): Although the species was described, then cited from the
Galapagos Islands in the literature, these records are likely spurious, as explained by Nesbitt Pitt (1986):
“Powys (1835) described Nassa nodifera from the Cuming collection, with the locality records “Galapagos
Islands and beaches of Panama”. This locality information was copied by Reeve (1853: 23), Carpenter (1857:
361), Stearns (1893: 406), and Keen (1958: 410). Tryon (1882: 28) synonymized the species with N. hirtus
(Kiener), and stated that the “localities of Panama and Galapagos are almost certainly incorrect”. This species
is common in the western Pacific and the Indian Ocean, and has not been recorded subsequently from the
Galapagos Islands”. This question was also discussed in Finet (1994) (species listed as “Nassarius
nodiferus”).

Nassarius nucleolus (Philippi, 1846)
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Finet (2001): Nassarius taeniolatus (Philippi, 1845) is probably a synonym of N. gayii (Kiener,
1834), from Chile (Cernohorsky, 1975; Skoglund, 1992); LACM: AHF 410, AHF 440, AHF 449, AHF

Nassarius pagodus (Reeve, 1844)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Syn.: Nassa angulifera A. Adams, 1852: type locality: Galapagos; Finet (2001): Although Nassa
angulifera A. Adams was originally described from the Galapagos on the basis of material collected by H.
Cuming, and although the record was repeated later by several authors, it is considered spurious by Nesbitt
Pitt (1986): “The erroneous locality record probably has the same source as that for the type specimens of N.
nodicinctus ... We cannot locate the specimens reported by Pilsbry Vanatta (1902) to be in the Stanford
University collection, but other specimens labeled N. anguliferus from early CAS and Stanford collections
are N. nodicinctus” (as described in Nesbitt Pitt, 1986). Nassarius anguliferus (A. Adams, 1852) had been
synonymized with the Panamic species Nassarius pagodus (Reeve, 1844) by Tryon (1882), and this has been
confirmed by Nesbitt Pitt (1986): “Thus, the spurious account of N. pagodus from the Galapagos is the result
of Tryon’s synonymy. Tomlin’s (1932) synonymy of N. anguliferus with the Mediterranean species of N.
miga (Bruguière) and Keen’s (1971) with N. dentifer (Powys) from the Peruvian Province are therefore

incorrect”. The question was also discussed in Finet (1994). Kaiser (1997: 53), although keeping the species
in her list of species with a doubtful occurrence, mentions one specimen from the Galapagos identified by

former. We are unable to refer to verified material or to confirm its occurrence as a recent species by other
records. Moreover, Bernard et al. (1991: 33) rejected the earlier record of the species from the Galapagos.

Finet (2001): This Peruvian species was cited from the Galapagos by Stearns (1891; 1893) and Dall
(1909), who included the archipelago in its range limits; as the occurrence could have been based on
misidentifications and did not seem to be confirmed by subsequent records, it was included among the
species of doubtful occurrence (see Finet, 1994). However, more recently, the species was also quoted from
Galápagos by Alamo Valdivieso (1987) in their “Lista sistematica de moluscos marinos del Peru”.

Oocorys elevata Dall, 1908
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): This deep-water species has been cited from near the Galápagos in Keen (1971). The
type locality mentioned by Dall (1908) is “Albatross Sta. 4649, between the Galápagos and Sechura Bay,
Peru, in S. Lat. 5°17’ and W. Long. 85°20’ and 2235 fathoms”, thus quite far away from the archipelago. We
do not know if the species occurs in deep water closer to the Galápagos. This question was also discussed in
Finet (1994) (Oocorys elevata erroneously placed in family Tonnidae). The species was quoted from
Galápagos by Alamo Valdivieso (1987) in their “Lista sistematica de moluscos marinos del Peru”; however,
Kaiser (1987: 52) includes it in her list of species of rejected occurrence.

CDF Checklist of Galapagos Marine mollusks
Finet (2001): Although the species was described from Chile, Dall (1902), in his original
description, mentioned also the Galapagos (with a question mark ?) within the range of the species; its record
from the Galapagos was then repeated again by Dall (1909) and by Soot-Ryen (1932). The record is probably
spurious or at least dubious. On the other hand, it must be noted that part of Pitaria tomeana auct., non Dall,
1902 is probably another species: Pitar catharius (Dall, 1902) (see Bernard, 1983); Bernard et al. (1991)
listed Pitar catharius (Dall) among the Galapagos bivalves, and this species is now considered as having a
verified occurrence in the Archipelago.

Placiphorella blainvillii (Broderip, 1832)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Was mentioned from the Galapagos by Dall (1909). According to Smith Ferreira
(1977), the occurrence of this species in the Galapagos is questionable: “The type locality is in 17 fathoms
(31 m), Inner Lobos Island, Peru, a “few specimens... while dredging”, collected by Hugh Cuming. The
United States National Museum mollusk collection contains no specimen from the Galapagos Islands,
although it does have one (USNM 122968) dredged by the USS Albatross in 120 m, off Cocos Island, Costa
Rica (USFC Sta. 3368). Dall’s record for Placiphorella blainvillii, from “Galapagos, Cocos and Lobos
Islands”, appears as the only one published. Since there are no museum lots to substantiate the presence of P.
blainvillii in the Galapagos group, the record remains in need of confirmation” (Smith Ferreira, 1977). Also
according to Skoglund (1989: 86) and Clark (1994: 303), its presence in deep water off the Galapagos has not
been reconfirmed since first published.

of Polinices (P.) otis (Broderip Sowerby, 1829) and is not occurring in the Galapagos: “The syntypes of P.
galapagosus (figured in Keen, 1971) are considered here to be specimens of P. (P.) otis. Because P. (P.) otis
is not known to occur in the Galapagos, the locality data with the syntypes are probably in error. All literature
illustrations of P. galapagosus known to me show specimens of P. (P.) otis. Galapagos records might be
based on specimens of P. (P.) intemeratus (Philippi, 1851), as this species is found there and is often
misidentified in collections as P. (P.) otis”. This question was also discussed in Finet (1985 1994). The
species was quoted again from Galápagos by Alamo Valdivieso (1987) in their “Lista sistematica de
moluscos marinos del Peru”, but Kaiser (1997: 52) includes it in her list of species of rejected occurrence.

Caribbean distribution for this species, and the material previously reported as nidorum (Pilsbry) is probably
pertaining to the species subsequently described as Sabinella shaskyi Warén, 1992 [see Kaiser (1997: 34)].

who referred also to Bernard (1983) and Bernard et al. (1991); Finet (1985 1994) listed the species as of
doubtful occurrence. Coan (1999) considered this Californian species as extralimital, discounting the earlier
records from Galapagos : “ There is absolutely no chance that Sphenia luticola occurs in the Galapagos ” ... “
Bernard was incorrect about Sphenia, in that he synonymized all the names, except for one that proves to be a
juvenile Mya and the one in southern Chile” (Coan, in litt., 2000).

Strombina paenoblita Jung, 1989
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): This species, distinguished from the similar Strombina lanceolata (Sowerby, 1832) by
Jung (1989), is not thought to occur with certainty in the Galapagos. Three specimens of the original type
series of Strombina lanceolata were not recognized conspecific with the other specimens of the series, and
were reidentified as Strombina paenoblita (see Jung, 1989). The locality data accompanying the type lots of
S. lanceolata, all originally from the Cuming collection, was simply “Galapagos Islands”. Other material
previously identified as S. lanceolata, and now reidentified as S. paenoblita (see Jung, 1989: 141) has been
quoted from the Galapagos Islands; but many of the lots concerned are from older collections, and their
locality data are often inaccurate and not necessarily reliable (AMNH 10373; ANSP 10290, 246579; MCZ
151412, 151414, 295265; fide Jung, 1989: 141). According to Jung (1989), “This does not mean, however,
that Strombina paenoblita does not occur in the Galapagos Islands. But until more reliable information
becomes available, it is thought best to leave this question open”. This question was also discussed in Finet
(1994).

Subcancilla erythrogramma (Tomlin, 1931)
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Syn.: Mitra lineata Broderip, 1835 (non Schumacher, 1817). Finet (2001): specimens from the
Galapagos were often referred to this species prior to the description of Subcancilla edithrexae by Sphon
(1976); actually, some of these specimens may be the new S. edithrexae, as for example the specimens from
“Barrington Isl., 5-10 fms.” cited by Cernohorsky (1991: 70), which are now labelled paratypes of edithrexae
(AMNH: 111069) (Emerson, pers. comm.). On the other hand, as both species are hard to tell apart on shell
characters only, and as no comparison between them was made by Sphon (1976) in his description of
edithrexae, whether edithrexae is a valid species endemic to the Galapagos, or a local form and thus a
synonym of erythrogramma, remains a question for further research. This question was also stated by
Cernohorsky (1991): “The close resemblance of “Ziba” erythrogramma and Z. edithrexae may present
difficulties in identification and it remains to be ascertained whether all “erythrogramma” type of shells on
the Galapagos Islands are edithrexae or whether both species live there.”

Subcancilla sulcata (Swainson in Sowerby, 1825)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Although the species was mentioned from the Galapagos by Finet (1985), the record
was based on one lot (LACM: n° D-88) of misidentified specimens of Mitra sphoni Shasky Campbell, and it
was deleted from the faunal list in Finet (1991). Cernohorsky (1991) also included the Galapagos within the
distribution range of sulcata, but this was apparently supported only by a record from a private collection
(coll. Eker). Another lot is (mis)identified as Subcancilla sulcata in the collections of the Darwin Station
(CDRS: n° 577), as it probably pertains to the species Subcancilla edithrexae. We consider thus that the
occurrence of Subcancilla sulcata in the Galapagos is not really verified and must provisionally be considered
doubtful.

Tegula verrucosa Mc Lean, 1970
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Tegula verrucosa is a replacement name for Trochus reticulatus Wood, 1828 (non
Sowerby, 1821), preoccupied. Although this species was mentioned from the Galapagos by some authors
(Wimmer, 1880; Stearn, 1893; Dall, 1909), its presence in the Galapagos Islands could never be verified and
no specimen from the Archipelago could be traced in collections. It may have been confounded with Tegula
snodgrassi (Pilsbry Vanatta, 1902), and the records by former authors as mentioned above are probably to be
considered spurious (see also Finet, 1994 1995).

Tellina reclusa Dall, 1900
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Was listed from the Galápagos by Bernard (1983), and Bernard et al. (1991), and by
Finet (1985) as a species with a doubtful occurrence. It was assumed by Finet (1994b) that those citations
might refer to Tellina brevirostris Deshayes, 1855, a species then listed as of verified occurrence (see also
Myers et al., 1983, as well as Skoglund, 1991). Tellina brevirostris Deshayes was also listed by Finet (1985),
but as of doubtful occurrence, and is not listed in Bernard et al. (1991). Whether the Galapagos species is
really the brevirostris of Deshayes, 1855, or a brevirostris Deshayes auctt., which actually might be the
reclusa of Dall, 1900, remains to be ascertained. It might also be conceivable that both species occur in
Galapagos.

Terebra elata Hinds, 1844

Finet (2001): This species is cited from the Galapagos by Bratcher Burch in Keen (1971), where it is
also considered a synonym of Terebra guayaquilensis E.A. Smith, 1880. Actually, the two forms of Terebra
elata figured in Keen (1971) belong to two separate valid species (Bratcher, 1979). The true T. elata does not
seem to occur in the Galapagos, and the previous records of “T. elata” from the Galapagos all seem to refer
to T. guayaquilensis (Bratcher, pers. comm., 1983). The question was also discussed in Finet (1985 1994).

Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.

n° 1874.10.29.1) is also the type of T. gracilis Gray; the locality given was “S.E. Africa ?”. Another possible
syntype of T. gracilis Gray (BMNH: n° 1874.10.29.2) is also a possible paralectotype of Terebra frigata
Hinds, 1844, a Panamic and Galapagan species. Terebra grayi has been cited from the Galapagos in Keen
(1971), but according to Bratcher (pers. comm., 1983) and Bratcher Cernohorsky (1987), it is a West African
species, not a South African nor a Panamic species. Records from the Galapagos or the eastern Pacific may
be based upon confusions or misidentifications.

Terebra guayaquilensis (E.A. Smith, 1880)
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
LACM: AHF 808-38; Finet (2001): In old literature, Terebra guayaquilensis is not recorded as a
species from the Galapagos. On the contrary, Terebra elata Hinds, 1844 is mentioned from the Galapagos in
Keen (1971), and T. guayaquilensis was considered to be a synonym of T. elata in Keen (1971). Actually, the
two forms of T. elata figured by Bratcher Burch in Keen (1971) belong to two species which must be
considered separate (Bratcher, 1979). According to Bratcher (pers. comm.), the true Terebra elata does not
seem to occur in the Galapagos, and the previous records of “T. elata “ from the archipelago are probably
referable to guayaquilensis (Bratcher, pers. comm., 1983). However, and illogically, the Galapagos are not
mentioned within the distribution range of Terebra guayaquilensis in Bratcher Cernohorsky (1987). Syn.:

CDF Checklist of Galapagos Marine mollusks
Finet (2001): Cited from the Galapagos by Dall (1909), and Schilder (1941), who placed it in
synonymy with Trivia paucilirata (Sowerby, 1870). The only other reference to Trivia acutidentata is based
on a worn shell from the Galapagos (FMNH 96037) (see Button, 1906; Solem, 1963). Schilder Schilder
(1971) also placed Pusula pulloidea (Dall Ochsner, 1928), a Pleistocene fossil described from the Galapagos,
within the range of Pusula acutidentata. The question was also discussed in Finet (1994); the species was
quoted in Finet (1985) as of doubtful occurrence, but erroneously under the name Trivia paucilirata, which
actually does not seem to be a synonym of acutidentata, despite Schilder's assumptions.

Trivia suffusa (Sowerby, 1832, ex Gray, MS)
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Finet (2001): Was mentioned from the Galapagos by Carpenter (1857) and Stearns (1893);
Carpenter (1857: 292) cited the “sp. 126, fig. 41” of Sowerby’s Conchological Illustrations (original figure
published for Trivia suffusa, ex Gray, MS), but he may have made an error about the locality Galapagos,
confounding with Cypraea pacifica Gray (sp. 125, fig. 39* of Sowerby’s Conch. Illustr.), a Galapagan
species. The records of T. suffusa from the Galapagos are also rejected by Button (1902): “A West Indian
species erroneously credited to the Galapagos Islands, doubtless on the strength of specimens of T. pacifica,
which is somewhat similar”, as well as by Hidalgo (1906): “Deben ser inexactas las localidades Galápagos y
Australia”.

Tucetona multicostata (Sowerby, 1833)

Finet (2001): Mentioned from the Galapagos by Bernard (1983) and by Skoglund (1991), citing the
former, and also listed by Bernard et al. (1991). We are unable to refer to verified material or to confirm the
occurrence of this species in the Galapagos by other records. KAISER (1997 : 48) reports that material in the
Los Angeles County Museum (LACM 38-188), previously identified as Glycymeris multicostata, has now
been redetermined by L.T. Groves as Glycymeris inaequalis (Sowerby, 1833).

example certainly the case for a specimen in the CAS collection (CAS n° 40603), which was collected and
mentioned in the literature by Angermeyer (1971: 7), and which is in reality a Turbo scitulus (Dall, 1919)

Turbo squamiger Reeve, 1843
Taxon status: Accepted name; taxon occurs in Galapagos.
Finet (2001): This species was originally described from an unknown locality (Reeve, Proc. Zool.
Soc. Lond., 1843: 186), but later on, Reeve (Conch. Icon., 1848, Turbo, pl. 5 fig. 21) cited the Galapagos
Islands as locality for the specimens collected by H. Cuming. Subsequent authors (Carpenter, 1857; Stearns,
1893 1894; Dall, 1909; Tomlin, 1928) also quoted the species from the Galapagos. The locality mentioned by
Reeve may be erroneous, and later records may have been based upon misidentifications; there seems to be
no actual evidence of the occurrence of this species in the Galapagos (see also Finet, 1994 1995).

“Murex” nucleus Broderip, 1833
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Type locality: Galapagos; Finet (2001): The original record of this species is still indeterminate, as
noted by Keen (1971): “Taken from the Galapagos Islands, and transferred by Sowerby in 1841 to Fusus. His
figure is indeterminate, and the species has not since been recognized”.

“Murex” pumilus Broderip, 1833
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Type locality: Galapagos; Finet (2001): Although the occurrence in the Galapagos was repeated by
several authors, the original record is still indeterminate, as pointed out by Keen (1971): “Also from the
Galapagos, this was pronounced unrecognizable by Sowerby in 1841 and has remained unfigured. The name
subsequently was used by A. Adams for a muricid from the Orient”.

“Ricinula zonata” Reeve, 1846
Taxon status: The identification of this taxon or its occurrence in Galapagos is doubtful.
Type locality: Galapagos; Finet (2001): It is probably not an eastern Pacific species, as noted by
Keen (1971): “This was described as from the Galapagos Islands. It, too, seems to have an erroneous locality,
for the type lot in the British Museum is an Engina relabeled E. melanozoma Tomlin, from the Solomon
Islands”.

Rejected Taxa:
1.
Amaea brunneopicta (Dall, 1908)
Finet (2001): This species has been mentioned from the Galapagos by Keen (1971); the record was
repeated by Finet (1985, 1991). However, DuShane (1974) restricted its southern distribution to Costa
Rica, and as no specimen from the Galapagos has been found in the collections, the record of Keen may
be considered dubious (see also Skoglund, 1992). The question was also discussed in Finet (1994).
Kaiser (1997: 52) includes the species in her list of taxa of rejected occurrence.; Syn.: Eccliseogyra
nebulosa Dall, 1919, Epitonium brunneopictum Dall, 1908, fide Appeltans et al.(2010)
2.
Callistochiton gabbi Pilsbry, 1893
Finet (2001): Was mentioned from the Galapagos by Bergenhayn (1937). This is considered a spurious
record by Smith Ferreira (1977): “No examples of this relatively common Gulf of California
Callistochiton were collected in the Galapagos Islands in 1964; nor has it been reported since. In all
probability, Bergenhayn’s record (one 7 mm specimen collected at Isla Floreana) is a misidentification
for Calloplax duncanus”.
3.
Calloplax janeirensis (Gray, 1828)
Finet (2001): Was mentioned from the Galapagos by Wimmer (1880). This is considered a spurious
record by Smith Ferreira (1977): “This is an Atlantic species, reported by Wimmer from the Galapagos
Islands where its occurrence is questionable. We suspect Wimmer’s specimens should be referred now
to Calloplax duncanus (Dall, 1919)”.

4.
Chaetopleura mixta (Dall, 1919)
Finet (2001): Specimens from the Galapagos were provisionally referred to this species by Smith
Ferreira (1977). Finet (1985, 1991) also repeated this record. But the material was misidentified, and
was described as a new species of Calloplax by Ferreira (1982): Calloplax hanselmani, then replaced in
the genus Chaetopleura by Kaas Van Belle (1987).
5.
Chiton latus Sowerby, 1825
Was mentioned from the Galapagos by Boone (1933). This is considered a spurious record by Smith
Ferrera (1977): “Boone reported “one large specimen”, collected at Gardner Bay, Hood Island,
Galapagos Islands, by the “Ara”, February 4, 1928. Mr. William E. Old of the American Museum of
Natural History, New York, has seen the Boone specimen and reports it (in litt.) to be Chiton stokesii
Broderip, 1832, quite probably from Cocos Island, Costa Rica, the erroneous record evidently due to a
mixing of labels. This species was not collected on Hood Island (Isla Española) by members of the
California Academy’s 1905-1906 Expedition and has not been reported otherwise from the Galapagos
Islands. According to Pilsbry (1893, 14: 160-161), Chiton latus Sowerby, 1825, is a synonym of C.
magnificus Deshayes, 1827, which he cites only from Valparaiso, Chile. Thus it is evident that this
Chilean species is not a constituent of the Galapagos chiton fauna”. This question was also discussed in
Finet, 1994. Despite the fact that the species was quoted again from Galápagos by Alamo Valdivieso
(1987) in their “Lista sistematica de moluscos marinos del Peru”, Kaiser (1997: 47) maintains it in her
list of species of rejected occurrence in Galápagos.
6.
Chrysodomus testudinis Dall, 1890
Type locality: near the Galapagos. Finet (2001): The record of this species is rejected by Keen (1971):
“From deep water off the Galapagos Islands, in 1485 m. The species has not been illustrated, and the
type material was too incomplete for positive placement. DALL even implied that it might prove to
belong in the family Turridae. Nomenclaturally, both the generic and the subgeneric names are
unacceptable, being synonyms of earlier names, and both pertain to groups that are Arctic or boreal in
distribution”.
7.
Conus bartschi Hanna Strong, 1949
Finet (2001): Coomans, Moolenbeek Wils (1982) identified a lot from the Galapagos in the Los
Angeles County Museum (LACM: 72-227.2) as Conus bartschi. This record was then repeated by
Skoglund (1992) and by Finet (1994: 72), but was later discounted by Kaiser (1997: 54), who
redetermined the LACM material as juvenile Conus brunneus Wood, 1828
8.
Corbula marmorata Hinds, 1843
Finet (2001): According to Coan (2002: 87), the record of this species from the Galápagos Islands by
Kaiser (1997: 25) was based on a misidentified specimen of Corbula bicarinata Sowerby, 1833 in the
LACM (LACM 34-43).
9.
Crepipatella dilatata (Lamarck, 1822)
Finet (2001): Was cited from the Galapagos by Dall (1909). Including the Galapagos Archipelago
within its range is erroneous and should be discounted, as this species has a much more southern
(Peruvian and Magellanic) distribution.
10.
Cymatium wiegmanni (Anton, 1839)
Finet (2001): Was mentioned from Galapagos by Schwengel (1938) and as a Pleistocene fossil by
Hertlein Strong (1939). But, as Beu Kay (1988: 213-214) pointed out, Cymatium wiegmanni of Hertlein
Strong, 1939 is not the wiegmanni of Anton, 1839, but rather Cymatium parthenopeum keenae (Beu,
1970). It was also erroneously referred by Hertlein Strong (1955: 134) to costatum (Born), though it is
not the costatum of Born, 1778, but rather the costatum of Dall, 1909, which is also parthenopeum
keenae (Beu). Before this problem was cleared up, wiegmanni has been listed as a species of doubtful
occurrence by Finet (1985). Kaiser (1997: 52) included it in her list of species of rejected occurence.
11.
Cypraea rashleighana Melvill, 1888
Finet (2001): Occurrence of this species in Galapagos was only mentioned as a probability (Emerson,
pers. comm., 1982). But it has not been confirmed so far, and it is the reason why the species was
placed in the list of species with a dubious occurrence in Finet (1985), then omitted in Finet (1994).
Kaiser (1997: 52) includes it in her list of species of rejected occurrence.
12.
Cypraea schilderorum (Iredale, 1939)
149
2011
CDF Checklist of Galapagos Marine mollusks
Finet (2001): Occurrence of this species in Galapagos was only mentioned as a probability (Emerson,
pers. comm., 1982). But it has not been confirmed so far, and it is the reason why the species was
placed in the list of species with a dubious occurrence in Finet (1985), then omitted in Finet (1994b).
Kaiser (1997: 52) includes it in her list of species of rejected occurrence.
13.
Cystiscus politulus (Dall, 1919)
Syn.: Marginella regularis Carpenter (auct., non Carpenter, 1864). Finet (2001): A specimen from the
Galapagos was tentatively identified by Hertz (1976) as Cystiscus politulus (Dall); “Marginella
(Cystiscus) regularis Carpenter” was also mentioned from the Galapagos by Hertlein Strong (1955).
But, according to Roth Coan (1971), both Marginella regularis Carpenter (auct.) and the true Marginella
regularis Carpenter, 1864 have to be excluded from the Galapagan fauna: “As shown by Coan Roth
(1966), Marginella regularis Carpenter, 1864, is a synonym of Granula subtrigona (Carpenter, 1864), a
species not present in any Galapagos material we have examined. The name Marginella regularis has
also been applied to Cystiscus politulus (Dall, 1919), another species which apparently does not occur
in the Galapagos Islands”. The question was also discussed in Finet (1994). Material from Galapagos in
the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History (LACM: 72-196) was also identified as Cystiscus
politulus by G. Coovert (fide Kaiser, 1997: 54), but it is more likely Granula insularum Roth Coan,
1971 (McLean, pers. comm., in Kaiser, 1997: 54).
14.
Fissurella microtrema Sowerby, 1835
Finet (2001): Syn.: Fissurella rugosa Sowerby, 1835 (type locality: Galapagos); ANSP: 50276, BMNH:
1966397 (Syntypes of Fissurella rugosa Sowerby, 1835). Mc Lean in Keen (1971) considered that the
true F. rugosa Sowerby is not a Galapagan nor a Panamic species: “Stated to have come from the
Galapagos Islands. No specimen matching the original illustration and description has been collected
there since. The species may well be from the Caribbean and a synonym of F. rosea (Gmelin, 1791).
The F. rugosa of authors is here considered to be F. microtrema”. Having studied material from the
SDNHM and the LACM, Hertz (1983) concluded that Fissurella microtrema and Fissurella rugosa may
be separate valid species. But after having examined additional material in the ANSP and the LACM, as
well as the type specimens of Sowerby for both species, Finet (1994) thinks that F. microtrema and F.
rugosa may be synonyms, showing many intermediate forms, similar to but probably distinct from the
common Caribbean Fissurella rosea (Gmelin, 1791), of which the type material was not examined
however. The syntypes of F. rugosa Sowerby are recorded from the Galapagos Islands, but it may be in
error (see also Hertz, 1983); only another lot of worn specimens identified as F. microtrema (ANSP
50276) is recorded from the Galapagos, but its origin (“Galapagos Isl., Dr. R.E. Griffith”) might be
doubtful as the locality of anything this old in the collection of the ANSP is questionable (see Finet,
1985). Also Fissurella rugosa of authors is often quoted from the Galapagos (see all the authors
mentioned above). But no other specimen of F. rugosa or microtrema whatsoever has been collected in
the Archipelago ever since then. As it is a quite common species elsewhere in the Panamic Province, its
occurrence in the Galapagos as a permanent component of the littoral fauna remains doubtful. The
question was also discussed in Finet (1985), and FINET (1994).
15.
Fissurella mutabilis Sowerby, 1835
Finet (2001): Was cited from the Galapagos by Carpenter (1857) and Stearns (1893). As it is a South
African species, these records should be discounted (see also FINET, 1994).
16.
Fissurella nigra Lesson, 1831
Finet (2001): Was cited from the Galapagos by Dall (1909). Including the Galapagos Archipelago
within the range of this species should be discounted as it has a much more southern (Peruvian and
Magellanic) distribution (see also Finet, 1994).
17.
Flabellina iodinea (Cooper, 1863)
Finet (2001): Identification of the relevant material should be deleted and provisionally considered as
Flabellina sp. (pers. comm. of T.M. Gosliner, 1994, in Kaiser, 1997: 55).
18.
Granula subtrigona (Carpenter, 1864)
Syn.: Marginella regularis Carpenter, 1864. Finet (2001): This species is not to be confounded with
“Marginella regularis Carpenter”, auct., a name which has been cited from the Galapagos by Hertlein
Strong (1955), and which has been applied to Cystiscus politulus (Dall, 1919). According to Roth Coan
(1971), both Granula subtrigona (Carpenter) and Cystiscus politulus (Dall) are not occurring in the
Galapagos.

19.
Hyotissa hyotis (Linnaeus, 1758)
Finet (2001): Hyotissa hyotis is an Indo-Pacific species, but the Panamic Hyotissa solida (Sowerby,
1871) has sometimes been confounded by some authors with Hyotissa hyotis, or even thought to be a
form or a synonym of it, hyotis being then also quoted from Galapagos. However, Bernard et al. (1991)
considered the two taxa as separate species, and have excluded Hyotissa hyotis from the Galapagos
fauna.
20.
Leptochiton alveolus (Lovén, 1846)
Finet (2001): FERREIRA (1979) considered the species Leptochiton alveolus (Lovén, 1846) as a
synonym of Leptochiton opacus (Dall, 1908), alias Leptochiton belknapi Dall, 1878, but alveolus is
now regarded as a separate Atlantic species (Kaas Van Belle, 1987; Kaiser, 1997: 47). Since L. opacus
(Dall) has been erroneously quoted from the Galápagos (see that species hereby), it may have been
thought that L. alveolus could also extend its distribution range to the Galápagos archipelago. But
actually, neither Leptochiton opacus (= L. belknapi), nor of course L. alveolus (extralimital, Atlantic)
pertain to the chiton fauna of the Galápagos (see Kaiser, 1997: 47).
21.
Leptochiton belknapi Dall, 1878
Syn.: Lepidopleurus opacus Dall, 1908, L. mesogonus Dall, 1902, L. halistreptus Dall, 1902, L. luridus
Dall, 1902, L. farallonis Dall, 1902, L. benthus Haddon, 1886; USNM: 110664 887578 (Lectotype and
Paralectotype of Lepidopleurus opacus Dall, 1908) (between the Galápagos and the Peruvian coast, in
2005 fms = type locality), SBMNH: 34460 (Paralectotype of L. opacus Dall) (same locality); Finet
(2001): The species Leptochiton opacus (Dall, 1908), a synonym of L. belknapi Dall, 1878 (Kaas Van
Belle, 1987), was dredged by the USS Albatross of the United States Fish Commission between the
Galápagos Islands and the Peruvian coast in 2005 fathoms" (3670 m) (USFC Sta 4647: Lat. 4°33’ S and
Long. 87°42’ W)
22.
Limaria hemphilli (Hertlein Strong, 1946)
Syn.: part. Lima hians auct., non Gmelin, 1791; Finet (2001): It is possible that Dall (1908) referred to
this taxon when he cited “Lima (Mantellum) hians Gmelin” from the Galapagos, and not to the true
Lima hians of Gmelin, 1791, which is an European species; but this record should be discounted
anyway, as L. hemphilli has a more northern distribution along the Californian and Mexican coasts.
23.
Littorina coccinea (Gmelin, 1791)
Finet (2001): According to Reid Kaiser (2001: 385), the “lot of 16 specimens from Wreck Bay,
Chatham Island, Galápagos Islands (leg. R.W. Smith, 1931, G. Vanderbilt collection, ANSP 170347) is
considered unreliable. This is because the sample is remarkably large for a rare immigrant species.
Furthermore, the following lot in the ANSP registration sequence is a shell of another
Indo-West-Pacific species, Littoraria intermedia, said to be from the same locality (...). This coincidence
is likely the result of mislabelling”.
24.
Lottia mitella (Menke, 1847)
Finet (2001): Originally described from Mazatlan, Mexico, this species has been cited from the
Galapagos in the literature by several authors. These citations were partly based upon misidentifications
of specimens of Lottia smithi Lindberg Mc Lean, 1981 or Lottia mimica Lindberg Mc Lean, 1981, from
the Galapagos Islands (Villamil, Isabela Island, leg. C.R. de Sola, 1928: AMNH 87165; north of Tagus
Cove, Black Bight, Isabela Island: CAS 93774 [ex 9970, loc. n° 27221], see Hertlein Strong, 1955: 140,
pl. A, figs 2,3). The quotations from the Galapagos were also sometimes replications from one author to
another. The question was also discussed in Finet (1994).
25.
Macoma" plebeia (Hanley, 1844) auctt."
Finet (2001): Mentioned by Cauquoin (1968) as having been collected from the Galapagos by Mr.
Hoffstetter. The type locality assigned to the species was “Real Lejos” (Nicaragua) (Pilsbry Lowe,
1932: 95), probably in error, as the type in the British Museum is now labelled from West Africa (see
Keen, 1971: 900). Both Keen (1971) and Bernard (1983) recognize the species as extralimital, being
probably a synonym of Psammotreta cumana (da Costa, 1829), from Senegal.
26.
Nerita fulgurans Gmelin, 1791
Finet (2001): A Caribbean species erroneously cited from the Galapagos by Schwengel (1938).
27.
Neritina latissima Broderip, 1833
151
2011
CDF Checklist of Galapagos Marine mollusks
Finet (2001): Neritina cassiculum Sowerby, 1836, a synonym, has been mentioned by Wellington
(unpublished, 1975). One lot of Neritina latissima (LACM 59991 - leg. W. Luke, ex Tremper) is also
recorded from Islas Galápagos"; but this lot
28.
Pecten magnificus (Sowerby I, 1835)
Acc. name: Nodipecten magnificus Sowerby I, 1835
29.
Persicula frumentum (Sowerby, 1832)
Finet (2001): Despite the records from the Galapagos Islands by Dall (1871: as P. catenata
30.
Petricola amygdalina Sowerby, 1834
Finet (2001): Originally described from the Galapagos by Sowerby (1834), but type material is missing.
Its occurrence in the Galapagos has been reported by several authors like Müller (1836), Carpenter
(1857), Stearns (1893), Pilsbry Vanatta (1902), Soot-Ryen (1932), and even repeated very recently by
Bernard (1983), Finet (1985: as of doubtful occurrence), Skoglund (1991), or Finet (1994). But as it is
not supported by any collection material, and as P. amygdalina is a nomen dubium, records can be
discounted (Coan, in litt., 1995 1996). Bernard et al. (1991: 33) and Kaiser (1997: 49) also rejected the
records from Galápagos.
31.
Phos articulatus Hinds, 1844
Finet (2001): Juvenile specimens from the Galapagos are in the LACM collections (LACM nrs. 66-211,
AHF-431, AHF-451, AHF 190-34). They may be misidentified and pertain to the species Phos
laevigatus (A. Adams, 1851) (see also Finet, 1985 1994).
32.
Semele corrugata (Sowerby, 1833)
Finet (2001): Was mentioned erroneously from the Galapagos by Hertlein Strong (1955) on the basis of
misidentified material, as pointed out by Coan (1988; 1989): “record of ... Semele corrugata (Sowerby,
1833) from Isla Baltra was based on a [beachworn] specimen of Semele flavescens (Gould, 1851) (CAS
064672), [a species] which had not previously been reported from the Galapagos”.
33.
Semele decisa (Conrad, 1837)
Finet (2001): Eventual records of this species from the Galapagos must be rejected, according to Coan
(1989): “The Californian species Semele decisa (Conrad, 1837) was reported from the Galapagos, but
what people were actually finding is the similar Semele sowerbyi Tryon, 1869”.
34.
Semele solida (Gray, 1828)
Finet (2001): Was mentioned erroneously from the Galapagos by Pilsbry Vanatta (1902) and by
Soot-Ryen (1932), probably on the basis of misidentified material, as pointed out by Coan (1988; 1989):
“record of Semele solida (Gray, 1828) from Isla Isabela ... was based on a [beachworn] specimen of
Semele flavescens (Gould, 1851) (CAS 064527), [a species] which had not previously been reported
from the Galapagos”.
35.
Tectura fascicularis (Menke, 1851)
Finet (2001): “Acmaea fascicularis Menke” has been mentioned from the Galapagos only by Schwengel
(1938); this record is probably erroneous and was possibly based upon misidentified specimens from
Wreck Bay, Chatham Island, collected by the Geo. Vanderbilt expedition (R.W. Smith, 1937) (ANSP
170308), and now reidentified as Lottia rothi (Lindberg McLean, 1981). The question was also
discussed in Finet (1994) and Kaiser (1997).
36.
Trivia occidentalis (Schilder, 1922)
Syn.: Trivia pulla (Reeve, 1846, ex Gaskoin, MS) (non Gmelin, 1791); Finet (2001): Although Trivia
pulla has been mentioned from the Galapagos by the numerous authors, Keen (1971: 903) considered
that it must be rejected from the eastern Pacific fauna: “This was described without locality but has been
considered to be West American by some authors. Schilder in 1922 renamed the homonym T.
occidentalis, accepting a Pacific provenance. Later (1932), he synonymized it with a Caribbean species,
T. antillarum (Schilder, 1922). Presumably, therefore, it is not a Panamic form.” The question was also
discussed in Finet (1994). Later, Kaiser (1997: 52) included occidentalis in her list of species of rejected
occurence.
37.
Xanthochorus xanthostoma (Broderip, 1833)
Finet (2001): Originally described from Valparaiso, Chile, it has been reported from the Galapagos as
“Trophon ? xanthostoma, Brod.” by Stearns (1893). This record seems erroneous, as the species has a
152
