translations

Dan,
    From what I can remember, some of the translations go as follows:
        Lithoghpaga avitensis
           Litho=picture  paga=belonging to.  avitenesis=ancient ancestor
        Scabrotrigonia thoracica
              Scabro=rough to the touch, small raised dots trigonia=in 
triplicate thoracica=thorax(or on the thorax, I can't remember case endings)
        As far as Ornithella ornithocephala, I think bird like bird head 
(Cephala=head) 

    Hope someone else can help you with the other questions. Mollusks are not 
exactly my strong point...
