Thanks to all for the input.
I couldn't figure out how to search the BHL site. Thanks for the link.
The reference was from Malacolog, but I can't find it again.
The description in C&T does not address my issue. So, does anyone have
samples of this shell collected from Massachusetts or close waters?

That issue of the Proceedings is on the Biodiversity Heritage Library at
http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/37030#220
though I don't see any reference to adamsi.

Vokes and Vokes cite:
Lea, H.C., 1846 Trans. Amer. Phil. Soc. (N.S.) 9: 268.
Does this work?

Are you sure of this citation? The Proceedings are available on line at
Biodiversity Heritage. You can read them online or select pages for them to
send you by email. A very simple, effective, and fast system. However, I
could not locate a paper by Lea at the pages cited.

The earliest name was Cerithium terebrale C. B. Adams, 1840 [non Lamarck,
1804]. The description of this Adams taxon is reproduced in Clench and
Turner (1950: 349-350). On plate 37 of their work there is a figure of the
lectotype and two enlargements of Adams' type figures.
Seeing the homonymy, Adams renamed the species C. terebellum in 1847 (Clench
and Turner, 1950: 349), but not before H.C. Lea named the species. According
to Vokes and Vokes (1984: 18), Lea proposed a replacement name rather than
performing independent nomenclatorial action.

Does anyone have a copy of the following:
Lea, H. C. 1845. A description of some new species of marine shells
inhabiting the coast of the United States. Proceedings of the Boston Society
of Natural History 1: 204-205. [Stated date: -- Mar 1845.]
If so, can you be so kind as to scan and provide a copy of the description
of Seila adamsi.
