Remarks: Clymenella californica differs con- siderably from C. complanata (Hartman. 1969) which is known only from San Mateo County and Point Conception in California where it inhabits shaley rocks from the intertidal to shallow sub- tidal. See table 1 for differentiating charac- teristics. On a global basis, Clymenella californica appears closest in morphology to C. cincta (St. Joseph. 1894) from France. It differs from C. cincta in having its collar margin entire instead of incised. The nuchal slits of C. californica are.
