No. XXXIV.- Report on Mollusca and Brachiopoda dredged in deep water, chiefly near the Hawaiian islands, with illustrations of hitherto unfigured species from Northwest America. [[strikethrough]] By William Healey Dall [[/strikethrough]] Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus XVII, No 1032, July 2, 1895, [[strikethrough]] pp. 149 XVII, [[/strikethrough]], pp. 675-733, pl. XXIII-XXXII.) This paper includes the description of mollusks and Brachiopods dredged on the Archibenthal plateau about the Hawaiian Islands, as well as others obtained by the Albatross on the western coast of America. A large number of species hitherto unfigured and fully illustrated, and twenty nine new species ,four new sub genera, two new genera, and one new family are [[strikethrough]] being [[/strikethrough]] described. The types of all are in the Museum. Apart from descriptions of new forms, the most important feature of the paper is found in the anatomical data relating to the gen[[strikethrough]]us[[/strikethrough]]era Euciroa and Halicardia, Callocardia and Lyonsiella, the subgenus Spergo of the Pleurotomidae, Ancistrolepis of the Buccinidae and the brachiopod genus Frieleia. It is shown that in the genus Halicardia a peripedal septum is formed by a thick outgrowth from the mantle independent of the gills and siphonal septum that in Euciroa and Callocardia the gills differ in very important characters from those of their nearest relatives, and incidentally that the subdivision of the Pelecypods into orders based on differences of the gills alone is [[strikethrough]] are [[/strikethrough]] unnatural and cannot be maintained. A peculiar organ, the opisthopodium discovered many years ago in Pholadomya by Owen is shown to exist also in Halicardia and is suitably illustrated. Description of a new Vitrea from Puget Sound.
