Hi Mr. Carl
I will need to look up the codes and read them but here's what I have....
Aurinia kieneri ethelea subspecies
The Nautilus Vol67 pg1
and in this paper it says the holotype was in the Townsend Collection..
Thanks for your help and information
Greg

 Greg,
I'm a land snail guy, but also a retired lawyer and a nerd on the Rules of Zoological Nomenclature.Your mention of S. d. k. ethylae raised a question in my mind: was the name published as an infrasubspecific taxon, thus raising the question of whether the name was properly published for purposes of zoological nomenclature (see Art. 45.5 and 45.6 of the Code). The name doesn't show up in MolluscaBase.
