44 REMARKS.—Amongst <strong>the</strong> group <strong>of</strong> species whose penes are ornamented solely by penial, terminal, and ventral glands, this snail is distinguished by <strong>the</strong> combination <strong>of</strong> large shell without basal carina, large penis, elongate penial gland, and large caecal chamber <strong>of</strong> stomach. I have not confirmed <strong>the</strong> status <strong>of</strong> populations aside from near topotypes. MATERIAL EXAMINED.—USNM 874195, Crooked Creek, at HWY 95 crossing, Malheur County, Oregon (T 33S, R 39E, NE1/4 sec. 24)(presumed near topotypes). <strong>Pyrgulopsis</strong> isolate Hershler and Sada, 1987 <strong>Pyrgulopsis</strong> isolates Hershler and Sada, 1987:807, figs. 19d, 25, 29c, f, 33d,g, 37, 38.—USDI, 1991b:58821. DIAGNOSIS.—Shell broadly conical, medium-sized, umbilicate. Penial filament short, lobe very long, broad. Penial ornament a transverse terminal gland. DESCRIPTION.—Shell (Figure lie) broadly conical (nearly globose); height, 2.6-3.1 mm; whorls, 3.75-4.25. Early protoconch very weakly punctate, nearly smooth o<strong>the</strong>rwise. Teleoconch whorls highly convex, slightly shouldered; sculpture <strong>of</strong> strong growth lines. Aperture usually slightly separated from body whorl. Inner lip complete, thickened; columellar lip sometimes slightly reflected. Outer lip orthocline to slightly opisthocline. Umbilicus rimate to perforate. Periostracum tan. Operculum (Figure 17f,g) broadly ovate, light amber except for dark, reddish area along inner edge <strong>of</strong> callus; nucleus slightly eccentric; dorsal surface weakly frilled. Attachment scar margin weakly thickened all around (more so between nucleus and mid-point <strong>of</strong> inner edge); callus weak. Central radular tooth (Figure 36d) with moderately indented dorsal edge; lateral cusps, 3-4; central cusp rounded, about as long as wide, considerably broader, slightly longer than laterals; basal cusps, 1, short, with strong dorsal support Basal process medium width; basal sockets deep. Lateral margins thickened; neck moderate. Cephalic tentacles pale or with internal gray-black patch just distal to eyespots. Snout light to dark brown-gray. Foot near pale to dark gray. Opercular lobe light, sometimes with dark internal pigment along inner edge and sides. Neck pale-light Pallial ro<strong>of</strong>, visceral coil, near uniformly black. Ctenidial filaments, 21, tall, broad. Osphradium centrally positioned along ctenidial axis. Kidney opening white. Stomach caecum small. Testis, 1 whorl, broadly overlapping posterior stomach chamber. Prostate gland with large (30%) pallial section; pallial vas deferens simple. Penis (Figure 47c) large; base elongaterectangular, filament short, narrow; lobe elongate-rectangular, about as long as base, without distal taper. Terminal gland transverse, straight, elongate, borne along distal edge <strong>of</strong> lobe. Filament dark. Ovary, 1 whorl, overlapping posterior stomach chamber. Albumen gland without a pallial component Capsule gland SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY longer than albumen gland. Genital aperture an elongate terminal slit with very short vestibule. Coiled oviduct a broad, near-horizontal loop well behind pallial wall. Oviduct and bursal duct join just behind pallial wall. Bursa copulatrix ovoid, medium length and width, with about 66% <strong>of</strong> length posterior to gland. Bursal duct narrow, about as long as bursa copulatrix, embedded in albumen gland. Seminal receptacle narrowly sac-like, usually folded, short, overlapping anterior bursa copulatrix. TYPE LOCALITY.—Spring south <strong>of</strong> Clay Pits, Ash Meadows, Nye County, Nevada (T 18S, R 50E, NE1/4 sec. 7). Holotype, USNM 859201; paratypes, USNM 859202, FSM 93959. DISTRIBUTION.—Endemic to type locality, Amargosa River drainage. MATERIAL EXAMINED.—USNM 850366 (topotypes). <strong>Pyrgulopsis</strong> kolobensis (Taylor, 1987), new combination Fontelicella kolobensis Taylor, 1987:19, fig. 8. Fontelicella pinetorum Taylor, 1987:20. fig. 9. DIAGNOSIS.—Shell ovate-conic, medium to large-sized, umbilicate. Penial filament short, lobe medium length. Penial ornament a short penial gland, transverse terminal gland, and usually a ventral gland. DESCRIPTION.—Shell (Figure 18a) ovate-conic; height 2.8-4.0 mm; whorls, 3.75-4.5. Earliest protoconch very weakly wrinkled, o<strong>the</strong>rwise near smooth. Teleoconch whorls moderately convex, sometimes weakly shouldered; sculpture <strong>of</strong> faint growth lines. Aperture ovate, narrowly adnate or slightly separated from body whorl. Inner lip complete; columellar lip weakly reflected, sometimes thickened. Outer lip orthocline-slightly prosocline. Umbilicus rimate to perforate. Periostracum tan-brown. Operculum (Figure \Sb,c) ovate, light amber, nucleus slightly eccentric; dorsal surface smooth. Attachment scar margin a weak trace along outer edge; callus weak. Central radular tooth (Figure 36e) with well-indented dorsal edge; lateral cusps, 4-5; central cusp rounded, slightly broader and longer than laterals; basal cusps, 1, medium-sized, slightly curved, with moderate dorsal support Basal process narrow; basal sockets deep. Lateral margins thickened; neck moderate. Tentacles pale except for small pigment patch ei<strong>the</strong>r distal to eyespot or near tip. Snout light to dark gray-brown. Foot light gray-brown; sides <strong>of</strong> opercular lobe with dark internal pigment Neck pale-moderately pigmented. Pallial ro<strong>of</strong>, visceral coil moderate to dark brown-black. Ctenidial filaments, 20, medium height and width. Osphradium centered slightly posterior to middle <strong>of</strong> ctenidial axis. Kidney opening white. Stomach with medium-sized caecum. Testis, 1.5-2.0 whorls, overlapping anterior stomach chamber (sometimes to edge <strong>of</strong> style sac). Prostate gland with short pallial section; pallial vas deferens proximally kinked. Penis (Figure 47d) large; filament short tapering; lobe medium length, near-rectangular. Penial gland weak, covering only base
