( Anellum ) t., quoad genus, magna, tereti, solidiore, rufofusca, interdum radiis intensioribus longitudinalibus ornata; annulis gracillimis, creberrimis, rotundatis, haud elevatis circ. lxxx. cincta; interstitiis nullis; sculptura longitudinali nulla; apertura acuta, vix contracta, vix declivi; septo subungulato, submucronato; margine laterali recto; apice acuto, ad angulum circ. 45°, maxime elevato; operculo vix concavo, lira spirali elevata.” Carpenter (1864: 215). Description. Protoconch paucispiral (about 1.7 whorls), planispiral, smooth (Fig. 55A), transition to teleoconch I marked by apertural varix (Fig. 55A). Teleoconch I short, sculptured with weak irregular reticular sculpture (Fig. 55B), transition to teleoconch II marked by change in sculpture (Fig. 55A). Teleoconch II about 3 times length of teleoconch I, sculptured with low axial annuli, crossed by longitudinal striae (Fig. 55C), transition to teleoconch III marked by weak axial constriction (Figs. 55A, D). Teleoconch III with similar characters as previous stage, but with somewhat stronger axial annuli (Fig. 55E), transition to teleoconch IV marked by slight axial narrowing (Fig. 55D). Teleoconch IV sculptured with flattened axial rings crossed by longitudinal striae (Fig. 55F), transition to teleoconch V marked by axial constriction (Fig. 55H). Teleoconch V (last growth stage) large for genus [Tol 4.79–6.12 mm], tubular, rather thick, stout, somewhat arched, [Larc: 1.59–2.20 mm; Arc: 0.30–0.45 mm], subcylindrical with slight increase in diameter from posterior to aperture, cream white, solid, striped, or mottled with tan to reddish brown (Figs. 54 A–C). Sculpture comprising of numerous close–set flattened axial rings and short, longitudinal striae on shoulder of axial rings and in the interspaces (Fig. 55F). Axial interspaces shallow, narrower than ribs (Figs. 55D, F). Posterior [Dpe: 0.30–0.49 mm] with rather thick edge, squared shoulder (Fig. 54D). Septum mucronate, slightly raised (Fig. 54D). Mucro with rounded point, pronounced, positioned on dorsal margin (Figs. 54 D–E). Aperture [Da: 0.45–0.75 mm] thick, slightly constricted. No varix. Lip smooth, with deflected peristome (Fig. 54D). Periostracum not observed. Operculum thin, dark brown; exterior surface with 9–11 concentric rings (Figs. 54 F–G). Conceptual reconstruction of growth stages shown in Fig. 56A. Distribution and Habitat. From Kachemak Bay, Alaska, to Punta Abreojos, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Intertidal to 250 m. Abundant subtidally on sand and gravel substrates. Remarks. Bartsch (1920) described the genus Micranellum for Caecum crebricinctum . However, his diagnosis of “closely spaced, slender, axial annulations” is a species level characteristic, and does not warrant a separate genus. Bartsch described six other taxa from the northeastern Pacific as well, which are listed in the synonymy above. The type material of each has been examined using SEM imaging, and all fall within the normal range of variation for C. crebricinctum . This species is the largest species known in the family, and the only member occurring in relatively deep water in the eastern Pacific. Lastly, NMNH lists USNM 14930 as a holotype. However, there were three specimens in Carpenter’s lot, one of which McLean (1996) designated as a lectotype, Fig. 54E. : Published as part of Raines, Bret K., 2020, A Rosetta Stone for eastern Pacific Caecidae (Gastropoda: Caenogastropoda), pp. 1-146 in Zootaxa 4827 (1) on pages 74-77, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4827.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/4402308 : {"references": ["Carpenter, P.
