Remarks
ANSP 218957
remarks 1. The two valves originally in this lot were not Olssonâs figured holotype, which was discovered in the Santa Barbara Museum in 2007 and returned to the Academy. One of the two paratype valves originally in ANSP 218957 was sent to the SBMNH in exchange; the other was cataloged as ANSP 416173.
