The authorship and status of type specimens of Urocoptis alleni and three species of Cerion from Cuba (Gastropoda : Urocoptidae and Ceriidae)

Urocoptis alleni, Cerion paucicostatum, Cerion alleni, and Cel-ion victor ( Urocoptidae and Ceriidae) are pulmonate gastropods from Cuba whose names we re introduced solely in plate captions. Although usually attributed to Torr e, 1929, all four are Torre manuscript names introduced by Pilsbry, 1929. P roblems with lectotype designations for these names are addressed as is the status of supposed type material in several U.S. museums.
