[A neotype for Porambonites costata Pander, 1830 was designated by M. A. Zuykov in 1999; it is one of the specimens in a collection made near the Pulkova River, in Russia, by Pander in 1845. (ICZN, 2006, p. 149)].

Strophomena Rafinesque in de Blainville, 1824
David Dale Owen enlisted the help of the Western Academy of Natural Sciences to bring about a uniform nomenclature of Middle Western fossils; S. T. Carley and U. P. James "were appointed a committee to prepare a report on the naming of the Strophomena of the Cincinnati blue limestone. In this they said that they had 'carefully examined and compared a great number of specimens' and were 'satisfied that, by far, too many species have been made', thus affirming Owen's contention." "This report was published in the Cincinnati Gazette, September 5, 1846." (Hendrickson, 1947, p. 143)

(Editorial note: The word "ankyliography" is analogous to the word "bibliography", but is derived from the Greek word "ankylion", which denotes a link in a chain [as opposed to "biblion", "book"].)

ABOUT THIS WEB-PAGE -- Caveat lector !
This web-page was constructed using MS-FrontPage and its version of html. The results have been previewed by way of MS Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, things that look fine when viewed with Internet Explorer sometimes look rather peculiar when viewed with Netscape. For example, there can be unexpected and unpredictable changes in the size, shape, style of type, or some combination of these. Moreover, sometimes different versions of Internet Explorer do not present the same web‑page in the same way; for example, hyphens in one version can mutate into empty rectangles in another. Alas!
