Pecten (Plagioctenium) gibbus portusregii Grau, 1952
GRAU, G. 1952. Pecten (Plagioctenium) gibbus portusregii, new name. The Nautilus, 66: 69. [p. 69]
«PECTEN (PLAGIOCTENIUM) GIBBUS PORTUSREGII, new name.— Leo G. Hertlein, of the California Academy of Sciences, has just informed me that the term carolinensis, proposed for a new subspecies of Pectinidae, Nautilus, Vol. 66 (1), p. 17, is preoccupied, Conrad having described Pecten carolinensis (Eocene of North Carolina) in 1875. Therefore the new subspecies has been designated Pecten (Plagioctenium) gibbus portusregii, after the type locality. Port Royal, South Carolina. The holotype has just been deposited in the United States National Museum.»
