...Thomas G. Gibson Abstract Eight species of gastropods of the family Turridae from the middle Miocene St. Mary's Formation are redescribed and figured. Large members of specimens were collected from 4 localities in Maryland, and a quantitative study was made to determine their taxonomic significance...

The families Cardiidae, Corbulidae, Veneridae, and Turridae, which are common in both provinces, were chosen to evaluate this hypothesis. The data do not support this hypothesis ( Fig...
