Wood piece portionWood piece portion Linnaeus' descriptions often were very brief and, to compound the uncertainty, a number of his type specimens have been lost. Thus, there is confusion about the exact status of some of the Linnean Philippines seashell and shells, including C. labrolineata, C. cicercula and C. bistrinotata, the species mentioned by Weaver. Wood piece portionWood piece portion Palmadusta lutea (Gmelin 1791) and P. humphreysii (Gray 1825) are similar in size, shape, dentition, and the yellow to orange color of the punctate base, so that they have been mixed by many writers and collectors; however, they differ by several characters in markings as well as in geographical distribution in which they exclude each other. The main differences may be tabulated as follows: The map indicates most localities from which specimens have been examined personally: one will observe that P. lutea [rings] spreads from western Indonesia to Japan, Ceylon, Shark Bay and Yirrkala, whereas E. humphreysii [dots] spreads from New Caledonia to Sydney, Torres Strait, Solomon Is., Marshall Is., Samoa and Tonga Is. These two areas approach each other in the Gulf of Carpenteria, but they are widely separated between the Philippines and Solomon Is.; however, it is interesting that the three shells found in Pleistocene beds of Kajuragi, N.W. Celebes [bull's-eye] seem to belong to the eastern P. humphreysii which evidently is the more primitive taxon.
