A/a?fna/.—Approximately 65 specimens in calcar- eous sandstone and siltstone of the Fannin Formation. Measurements. —See Table 9. Discussion.—At similar shell diameters, F. (F.) dol- magii (holotype refigured on PI. 3, fig. 3) is indistin- guishable from F. ( fannini and the two are here considered synonyms. In terms of volution, F. (F.) fannini belongs to the intermediate group of species where U= at large shell diameters. The similarly volute F. (F.) kunae. which also occurs in the Queen Charlotte Islands, dif- fers by having sharper, more densely spaced ribs that project more strongly onto the venter. Occurrence. — F. fannini is widely distributed in the eastern Pacific where it is most characteristic of the lower part of the Upper Pliensbachian; i
