«PECTEN VAUN, var. WYTHEI, new name for Pecten vaun, var. flabellum Cooke, not Gmelin, Bosc, nor Defrance.
The name Pecten flabellum has been used for a species named by Gmelin, and it has also been used by Bosc and by Defrance. The variety named flabellum by Cooke can therefore take the name Pecten wythei in honor of Dr. C. Wythe Cooke of the U. S. Geological Survey. The Cuban form originally described as flabellum by Cooke will apparently take the following synonymy: Pecten vaughani, var. flabellum Cooke, Carnegie Inst.

Bavay also considered that "P. Tissotii Bernardi = P. flabellum Gmelin, juvensis." According to Dall (NAUTILUS, Vol. 38, No. 4, 1925, p. 113), Ostrea flabellum Gmelin is a synonym of P. gibbus Linnaeus. Not Pecten flabellum Bosc, Hist. Nat. Coq., s. à. Deterville, Ed.

«Antillipecten vaun wythei (Hertlein, 1933) from the La Cruz Formation, Pliocene, in the Santiago area of Cuba, resembles A. cercadicus in rib number and lack of secondary costae but differs in having lower, more rounded ribs that begin after an early non-ribbed smooth zone, and in lacking two orders of growth lines in rib interspaces and transverse lamellae on rib crests in early ontogeny.»

«CHLAMYS (AEQUIPECTEN) aff. C. VAUN WYTHEI Hertlein
Plate 13, Figure 1 A moderately large specimen (Fla. no. 3745) collected at Lyles old quarry, 1½ miles north of Live Oak, Suwannee County, Fla., by the Florida Geological Survey, may be related to a form originally identified as "P. vaun var. flabellum" Cooke, [108] a species from the "Oligocene" at La Cruz and Santiago, Cuba.
The Florida specimen, a right valve, is not perfect; the umbonal area and the lower anterior margin have been broken off. The specimen is nearly equivalve, depressed in the umbonal area and weakly inflated over the middle part of the disk. Ribs 16 in number, mainly rounded, apparently smooth, and separated by slightly narrower interspaces. The ribs over the disk are nearly of the same size except those on the anterior side which are weaker. The rib at the upper edge of the anterior submargin is very small. The Florida specimen, though much larger than the Cuban specimens, measuring about 50 millimeters in length and about 45 in height, agrees with them in all features discernible and may belong to the same species.
