Question .Title & Unknown Author(s)

I have had a Kindle 3 for almost a year and built up a modest collection of e-books on the device. I also created a few collections to help organise the books. As the number of books is still growing I installed Calibre v0.8.35 on my Mac (OSX v10.6.8). Everything appeared to go well with no errors. I was able to import the Kindle's books into Calibre and export other books from Calibre to the Kindle.

While looking through the library of books I noticed that I had duplicate entries for some books. The duplicate entries all have the book title starting with a dot "." and the Author(s) field contains 'Unknown'. The size (MB) field for the titles starting with the dot contains "<0.1" whereas it is something greater than 0.1 for the entry with the proper title and author. For example:

Title Author(s) Date Size (MB) Publisher Published
Old Nathan David Drake 13 Jan 2012 0.3 Baen Oct 1991
.Old Nathan Unknown 13 Jan 2012 <0.1

Can someone tell me what these entries are? Can I remove them from the library?
