Text-fig. 54 Two fragmentary specimens from USNM localities 9045 and 9048, and a single brachial valve from localit}^ 9047 appear to be as- signable to the genus Dielasma King, 1859, on the basis of interior details as developed from serial transverse sections made from the specimen from locality 9048. These sections show the hinge plates to be divided reaching the floor of the valve separately posteriori}^ converging and touching anteriorly, but not rising above the floor of the valve as in Hainburgia chappelensis, Although these three specimens are poorly preserved, they appear to represent a species that is relatively tumid or inflated posteriorly.
