OK, that's the one. I have many of Warén's
papers, including that one, but was too lazy to
look through them for this.

I'll have to check as to whether he did anatomical work on Scalenostoma.

OK. It may be that my specimen is a small male Scalenostoma.
Or it may have just been a little Melanella
looking for an echinoderm to hitch up with, of
course.
