Bob,

79. Trivirostra shawi Schilder, 1933
(Fig. 127: holotype)
1933 Trivirostra edgari shawi Schilder, Zoo\. ADz.
102: 290.
Description.-Shell of medium size, solid, elongately ovate. Terminals
squarely, moderately produced. Dorsum subglossy (because of shiny
interstices), with a well defined median dorsal furrow; numerous ribs (18),
excluding two or three on each terminal beak, traversing dorsum to either
side margin, although not crossing dorsal line. Base broad, shiny, ribbed
(22), interstices wide. Aperture somewhat wide, narrowest centrally,
straight. Columella fairly wide, shallowly concave, broadening in front to
form a fossula. Outer lip broad, convex, shiny, ribbed (22). Shell color
off-white overall.
Measurements, holotype.-L - 6.0 mm (Kilias, in litt.).
Measurements, hypo type 1.-L - 5.3; W - 3.7; H - 3.2 mm (C3667; Fig. 127a).
Measurements, hypo type 2.-L - 6.7; W - 4.5; H - 3.9 mID (C4237).
Type locality.-Hawaii (designated herein: Maalaea Bay, Maui; leg. Reggie P.
Gage, Wailuku, Maui; December 1967 (C4237) (20055' N; 1560 31' W).
Distribution.-Waikiki, Oahu, Hawaii; leg. Ted Dranga, Apra Harbor, Guam
(C3667) (Fig. 127a: hypotype).
Holotype.-ZMB, Schilder collection, No. 186 (Kilias, in litt.) .
Discussion.-For pertinent details concerning this species, and other
Schilder species of this date, refer to the previous species, Trivirostra
tomlini Schilder, 1944. Because the use of intricate tables and critical
alphabetical "capital" letter reference, it will be important for the
student to make direct reference to both the Schilder (1933: 290) and (1944:
15) works. To the latter date, add the Schilder comment: "Tier von beiden
Arten hell, nur der mit distanten Warzen besetzte faltige Mantel zeigt
besonders rings urn den Sipho zerstreute kleine schwarze Flecke."
