Yes, Dick, that is the place to look.
Thanks for the direction. It seems that the ITIS took all of its molluscan dates
from:
Turgeon et al., eds. 1998. Common and Scientific Names of Aquatic Invertebrates
from the United States and Canada: Mollusks, second edition. AFS Special
Publication 26
It gives 1836 as the year for Cypraea spadicea Swainson.
I will get in touch with ITIS to see if they will consider updating their
posting.
Again, Mahalo!
