FROM . THE STATE, OR -MONAGAS, VENEZUELA: By Katherine V. W. Palmer INTRODUCTION The following study is based on a collection of fresh-water invertebrate fossils from the State of Monagas, Venezuela. The material was collected in 1944 by Ely Mencher, Norman E. Weisbord, and Oswaldo De Sola of the Socony-Vacuum Oil Com- pany, C. A., of Vienezuela. Continental deposits in the State of Monagas of late Tertiary or Quaternary age are widespread and thick and have been de- scribed in various reports. With the exception of the description and illustration of a fossil naiad, Castalioides la/di, by Marshall from near Aragua de Maturin, District of Piar, State of Monagas, no accounts of the molluscan fossils characteristic of these fresh- water sediments in Venezuela have been heretcfore published Carlotta J. Maury depicted a Hyria and Corbicula from strata of equivalent age in Trinidad. Not only is the fauna of particular interest and value in the ultimate unraveling of the paleontology and stratigraphy of the local continental formations of Venezuela, but it is hoped that the knowledge obtained from the study of these fossils may fit into the wider problem of the ages of the various nonmarine deposits ef northern South America. Since 1867 when Prof. James Orton first collected fossils at Pebas on the upper Amazon in.i’eru, there have been occasional publications on the Tertiary fossils from nonmarine beds of the Amazon Valley and northern South America. Of these that of Henry A. Pilsbry (1944) on the mollusks from the Red Beds of the Rio Pachitea and Pebas, Peru, and that of Edward W. Perry (1945) on the fossil flora from southern cuador are the most recent. The most widely written upon of the deposits are those of the headwaters of the Amazon, particularly at Pebas, Peru. Gardner’s (1927) and De Greve’s (1938) works present a résumé and comprehensive discussion with bibliovraphy and tie a 5 BULLETIN 118 latter has illustrations of the fauna of those sediments. De Greve’s monograph is by far the most extensive work on any of the South American Tertiary nonmarine invertebrate fossils. Sheppard, \tarshall and Bowles, Pilsbry and Olsson, Liddle and Palmer have been the chief contributors toward the description of fresh- water fossil Mollusca of the Cuenca Basin, Ecuador, and the Mag- dalena Valley, Colombia, In the Magdalena Valley fresh-water mollusks are found in the upper Kocene, Oligocene, and Miocene, part being of estuarine origin. The age of the Amazonian and Ec- uadorian deposits is still a matter of debate, the Pebas and equiv- alent faunas are usually regarded as Pliocene and the Cuenca Basin fossils as probably older, The diagnosis and correlation of the fossil plants from the numerous South American localities may be obtained through the studies and published works of Berry on Chile, Lolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, and west- ern Brazil. The more complete a collection of fossils from a locality is, the more worth may be attached to the determinations which may be given to the systematic identifications of the species and hence greater reliance may be placed on the correlation deduced therefiom. This is particularly true in the case of fresh-water forms such as the shells of the present material. With many speciiens available one may obtain a series of variation and be better able to fit isolated specimens into such suites. The knowl- edge cf the hinge structure is imperative in the work on the bi- valves in order to make authentic determinations of genera in which external features might be duplicated. Frequently the col- lections yield specimens on which external characters only are re- vealed. Fortunately this material contained many individuals with partial or complete hinge details exposed. It has been the aim in the present paper to illustrate variation of form as fully as possible and practical. Credit for our ability to attain some of that ideal must go to the collectors who furnished the extensive and fine material. It is with pleasure and gratitude that the new species herein described are named for them. Appreciation is also expressed to the authorities of the Socony-Vacuum Oil Co., C. A., of Venezuela, with whose permission this report is pub- lished, =“ MoLuuscAN Fossits From MonaGcas: K. PALMER 7 DESCRIPTION OF LOCALITY. AND AGE The fossils treated and described in this paper are all from the same locality, Any specific occurrence elsewhere is mentioned un- der the systematic discussions. ‘The. material is described by those who obtained it as coming from “a low hill along the east bank of the Quatatal River, east of La Llanera and 17.1 kms. as the crow flies north of Caicara in the State of Monagas, Vene- zuela.” The collections were made by Ely Mencher in Septem- bee, 1944 "%CStay No. 1135, Paleont: Research ‘Imst.)) and Ely Mencher, Norman E. Weisbord, and Oswaldo De Sola in No- vember, 1944 (Sta. No. 1136, Paleont. Research Inst.). Norman E. Weisbord kindly contributed the following de- scriptive notes of the locality and age of the deposits: “Most of the fossils are found loose on the surface and come from a somewhat calcareous clay with a little firel, disseminated gypsum. The clay is blue-gray, several feet below the surface, and weathers above to a yellowish-brown soil. Occasional blocks of coquina made up mostly of Corbicila and Ostomya are strewn about, and several botryoidal calcite nodules an inch or two in diameter have been observed. “The fossiliferous clays at La Llanera form part of a predomi- nantly nonmarine series consisting of clays, sands, gravels, and occasionally lignites. On purely regional grounds this series vould seem to be generally equivalent to the Quiriquire forma- tion described by J. H. Regan’ and possibly a phase of the Sacacual group mentioned by Hedberg and Pyre®, In the Ouiri- quire field, some 50 kms. or so east of La Llanera, the Ouiriquire formation lies unconformably on strata of suggested middle Mio- cene age while 100 kms. to the southwest of La Llanera the Sacacual group unconformably overlaps the upper Miocene. The 1 Regan, J. H.: Notes on the Gwiriquire Oil Field, District of Piar, State of Monagas, Bol. Geol. Min., Tomo II, Nos. 2, 3, 4, 1938, p..192. 2 Hedberg, H. D., and Pyre, A.: Stratigraphy of northeastern An- zodtegui, Venezuela, Bull. Amer. Assoc. Pet. Geol., vol. 28, No. 1, 1944, pp. 24, 25. BULLETIN 118 8 (Juiriguire and Sacacual formations may be contemporaneous in part, and both are overlain by the Mesa formation which is gen- eraily vegarded as Quaternary, If the La Llanera fossils belong to the Ouiriquire or Sacecual, as it is reasonable to suppose they co, the evidence points to their being Pliocene or Pleistocene in ace, the former being the more likely.” ANALYSIS‘OF THE-EAGINA The fauna identified from the La Llanera locality includes the followin® species : 1. Hyria trinitaria Maury 2. [Hyria weisbordt, n. sp. 3. Prodiplodon tipswordi, n. sp. 4. Castalioides laddi Marshall 5. Corbicula (Cyanocyclas) desolai, n. sp. 6 Corbicula (Cyanocyclas) monagasensis, n, sp. Ostomya mencheri, n. sp. 8. Asolene quaialensis, n. sp. 9. “Planorbis’ llanerensis, n. sp. The generic position of the last species is too uncertain for tatements to be made concerning its relationship. All the other genera in the list are limited to South America except Cyan- ocyelas and the “Ampullarias’” whose range includes Central America. The latter group ranges into Mexico. Prodiplodon and Castalioides occur only as fossils. Although Hyria, Cyanocyclas, Ostomya, and Asolene are living in rivers of South America, Hyria and Ostomya have not as yet been discovered in the present fauna of Venezuela and Trinidad. When dealing with a conti- nent such as South America where there are still large areas of the river systems which are unexplored biologically, distributional statements as those made above must be considered with reserva- tions. ‘The range of many genera may be extended to regions where such genera are unknown at present. The sediments in which the fossils studied are entgmibed are unquestionably fluviatile. Hyria and allies (Hyriine), Ostomya, 9 Mo.LuuscaNn Fossits From Monacas: K. PALMER 9 Cyanocyclas, Asolene and “Planorbis’ are all stream dwellers. Hiyriinze and the “Ampullariide” are frequent in the swamp, lowlands of rivers. “Ampullariidz” and Planorbide, particular- lv the latter, have representatives in lakes and both can withstand periods of drought. The Planorbide, a ubiqritous and shallow- water group, may be found in nearly any type of fresh water from large lakes and rivers to ponds. They can also accommodate themselves to some salinity and alkalinity. Ostomya and Cyan- ocyclas may live in a slightly brackish element such as the ex- treme tidal reaches at the mouths of streams, In evaluating the environmental data of the genera identified, one should consider that the Hyriine, Ostomya, and Cyanocyclas include the greatest number of specimens, the Hyriinee forming the major group. There are only a few specimens of Asolene and ene of the “Planorbis.” Therefore the evidence from the prin- cipal forms indicates that the deposits at the horizon and in the area of these fossils were accumulated in a great drainage system of late Tertiary date. Whether brackish or other conditions existed at levels above or below the zone of these forms and how the formation from which the specimens came changed laterally must be Cetermired by cata obtained from such layers. Since fossils are available in the for- mation from at least two localities in the State of Monagas (La Llanera and Aragua de Maturin), wit!) pessibly more unput- lished places, their presence might be diagnostic enough to be used as key horizon markers. CORRELATION Below is a list of genera from the La Llanera locality with their known distribution elsewhere.

Two species in the fauna are specifically identical with forms elsewhere, Castaliodes iadci Marshall was first discovered in Vene-uela at Aragua de Matttrin which is in the area east or northesst of the present locality and would presumably indicate that the species came from the same formation at both places. ihe age of the Aragua de Maturin locality was originally given as Quaternary. Hyria trinitaria Maury was described from Cedros Point, southwestern Trinidad. Maury identified Corbicula (Cyanocyclas) comparana from near Sangre Grande, Comparo Road, northeastern Trinidad and from Cedros Point. C. com- parana \as not found in the Venezuela collection but the corre- lation in Trinidad links the three localities as to time of deposition, Cedros Point, Trinidad, has been given by some as. Pliocene, by others as Pleistocene. “va The correlation by means of the genera from the material di- agnosed would seem to indicate an age about the time that the upper Amazonian nonmarine deposits were laid down, I have listecl the age of those sediments as Pliocene from the general consensus of opinion. The La Llanera fossils reveal a local en- vironment but suggest closer affinities with the Amazonian and /’ecent forms than with Colombian species of the same genera. The assemblage of each of the fossil fresh-water faunas in the 11 Mouuuscan Fossizts From Monacas: K. PALMER ial separate basins of northern South America naturally indicate lo- cal conditions, and yet there are in each group a few common generic elements. As more and more fossils from the continental strata of South America are placed on record, better understand- ing and greater certainty of correlation of the deposits will be possible. When examining the accompanying chart the fact that more has been published on the Amazonian (Pebas, etc.,) than on the Venezuelan nonmarine faunas should be considered. It should be recognized also that the determination of the age of the beds with which correlation is made is still in a state of flux, The age of the La Llanera deposits from a stratigraphic stand- point is probably Pliocene or Pleistocene, preferably Pliocene. The stucy of the fossils would seem to agree with such a conclu- sion, SYSTEMATIC DESCRIPTIONS Family MUTELIDA Subfamily HYRIINA Genus HYRIA Lamarck, 1819 Sowerby in Reeve, 1869 (Illustrations) ; Simpson, r9c0, pp. S153 as 869; Simpson, 1914, pp. 1211-1215; Ortmann, 1921, pp. 455-465, 501, 562. The genus /[/yria is today limited to several species of the riv- ers of the Amazon basin and Guiana (Simpson, 1900, p. 809 ; 1914, pp. 1213-1215; Frierson, 1914, p. 363; Ortmann, 1921, p. 561)° A fossil species of Hyria or Hyria-like form, “Triquetra’ lon- aula was described by Conrad (1874, p. 20, pl. 1, figs. 10, 13) from the Pebas beds of Peru. See the discussion of that species under Prodiplodon. De Oliveira Roxo (1924, p. 45) reported Hyria and identified it as H. corrugata Lamarck (Recent, Ama- zon) from Tres Unidos, Rio Javary, upper Amazon _ basin of Pebas age and from the Pliocene of Rio Jurua, Brazil (1937, p. ©). De Greve (1938, p. 20, pl. 7, figs. 24, 25) figured a fragment of “Hyria” from Iquitos, Peru, of Pebas age. That specimen is 3 The Hyria whcaileyi Marshal], U. S. Nat. Mus., Proc., vol. 69, No. 2638, 1926, p. 7, pl. 1, figs. 3, 5; pl. 3, fig. 1, is probably not a Hyria (Pilsbry and Oisson, 1935, p. 17). 12 BuLLETIN 118 12 also here discussed under Prodiplodon. De Oliveira Roxo (1937, p. 6) in addition identified “H. wheatleyi” Marshall in the Rio Jurua material. Marshall’s species is probably not a Hyria hence the Rio Jurua specimen may represent another naiad stock. Of the known fossil reports of Hyria it may be that H. cor- vugata Lamarck reported by De Oliveira Roxo from the [liocene of Brazil is the only typical species. Hyria trinitaria and H. weisbordi differ in minor details of hinge structure. Not know- ing the character of the complete hinge of H. wetsbordi, one can- not say how typical the hinge would be. From the part of the hinge visible it appears more like that of H. corrugata, the geno- type, than does H. trinitaria. The pseudocardinals in the latter are broken into strong denticles much more so than in the genus Hyria, sensu stricto. Adequate Recent comparative material of the Hyriinee is not available for further subdivision. It may be that H. trinitaria will be used as the basis of a new subgroup. Hyria trinitaria Maury Plate 1, figs. 1-10 Hyria trinitaria Maury, 1925, Bull. Amer. Paleont., vol. X, No, 42, p. 83, pl. 13, fig. 2. the present collection of 34 specimens of this species from Ven- ezuela supplements the original material from Trinidad and adds a knowledge of the details regarding the hinge and sculpture not previously noted, Dr. Maury figured a fine specimen of extreme shape beside a shell of the genotype, H. corrugata Lamarck (Re- cent, Brazil), to show the similarity of form. The Venezuelan representatives have been compared with the type and topotypes of HH. trinitaria. The topotypes are badly eroded, but they are the original Harris material that Maury had in describing her species. The duplicate Trinidad shells are more elongate with a less elevated posterior wing than the holotype has, and they do not show the zigzag corrugations on the mid-area as on that specimen. The holotype is therefore more extreme in shape than the average individual. The Jarge collection from tie La Llanera locality includes well-preserved specimens which reveal varia- tion in hinge, shape, and sculpture. They compare so well with the topotypes of H1. trinitaria that it seems safe to classify the spe- cimens from Trinidad and Venezuela under the same specific 13 MoLLUScAN Fossits From Monacas: K. PALMER 13 name. The hinge appears to be Hyria-like but not typical of the genus sensu stricto, The cardinal in the right valve is considerably broken up, the sice of the denticles varying with individuals as may be noted by comparison of figures 5, 9, 10, Plate 1. In fig- ures g and 10 the large size and increase of the denticles obscure the socket of the anterior lateral, The surface of the shell may be sculptured with only heavy concentric lines of growth. Char- acteristically there may be several heavy undulations just back of the umbos in the concave area dorsad of the umbonal ridge. The concentric lines of the short anterior wing are pinched in a typical Hyria manner. ‘The umbos are flat. The above points are illustrated by figures of a suite of speci- mens and need not be further elaborated. Dimensions.—Greatest length, 63.6 mm. average (of 29 speci- mens, 70 mm., longest measurement; 54 mm., shortest) ; greatest neight, 42.6 mm. average (of 28 specimens, 50 mm. highest meas- urement ; 35 mm., lowest) ; length of hinge line, 38.2 mm. average (of 21 specimens, 31 mm, shortest; 46 mm., longest).

Such an initiation of secession of the sculpture, together with the medium size of the shell, suggests that the holotype is an immature specimen and that the ventral nongranulate area would be greater with age as is common in the Hyrias. H. rugosissima Sowerby of the Amazon River, heavily sculptured throughout its growth, is an exception to the usual ornamentation of the genus. 14 BULLETIN 118 14 The biangulation of the umbonal ridge is comparable to that of Hyria latialata Sowerby of British Guiana (Sowerby in Reeve, 1569; ply U1» fig. <4): The divaricately granulose sculpture makes this species unique. The granulate condition is present on several of the Unio sem- granosus group which live in Mexico and Guatemala (Fischer and Crosse, pls. 59-61), but none of those species has the pattern as complete or as intricate as on H, weitsbordi. The hinge of this species differs from H. trinitaria, with which it is associated, as H. weisbordi lacks the numerous denticles into which the cardinal tooth is divided. The cardinal of the right valve of H. weisbhordi is more pronounced and distinct. This species is known by one specimen, in which the valves are intact, the left valve having slipped ventrally revealing a portion of the right hinge.

Genus PRODIPLODON Marshall, 1928 Marshall, U. S. Nat. Mus., Proc., vel. 74, No. 2748, 1928, p. 1. This genus was based on the genotype, P. singewaldi Marshall, (1928, p. 2) and included two other species of fossil material from Paucarpata, on the Maranon River and from Pebas, Peru, The striking character of the shell is the umbonal sculpture of radiat- ing V-shaped undulations, the inner pairs of which converge along the mid-line to make the V-formation. The remainder of the sur- face of the valve is smooth except for coarse growth lines, This type of ornamentation may also be formed in Hyria. Marshall suggested that the genus was related to Hyria and Diplodon. Of the material with this pronounced umbonal sculpture which he had from Peru, Marshall figured the exterior well and described two genera, Prodiplodon and Eodiplodon, with three species of the first and two of the second, differentiating the forms on minor points of shape and sculpture. How justified he was in such splitting remains to be verified by more extensive material from the Pebas or equivalent beds. 15 MotiuscaNn Fossins From Monacas: K. PiLMER 15 Conrad had earlier (1847, p. 29, pl. I, figs. 10, 13) than Mar- shall described a corresponding type of fossil naiad, “Triquetra”’ longula, from the Pebas beds, Conrad’s illustration well depicts the Prodiplodon-type of sculpture. In 1938 De Greve figured (Hyria, sp., pl. 7, figs. 24, 25) a similarly ornamented fragment of the umbonal region, as well as the hinge, of an apparently close- lv related, if not the same, species from a section at Iquitos, Peru, ot Pebas horizon. Therefore the evidence shows that this //yria- like genus is fairly common in the beds of Pebas age. The species named from Peru are “Triquetra”’ longula Conrad, Prodiplodon singewaldi Marshall, P. bassleri Marshall, P. paucarpatensis Marshall, Eodiplodon gardnere Marshall, E. pebasensis Marshall, and“Hyria,”’ sp. de Greve. The presence of the representative in Venezuela, whether it prove specifically identical or not, is a fact of relationship not to be considered lightly. Marshall did not figure the hinges of his two genera, so there is a chance that there will be a difference in the hinge structure greater than is suggest- ed by Marshall’s description of the hinges. The idea that the V- shaped umbonal sculpture is infallible in identifying genera of the Naiades must be used with caution and may be judged by com- paring such genera as Hyria, s. s., Tetraplodon Spix (Castalia Lamarck), Prodiplodon, Ecwadorea, and Castalioides. If um- bonal fragments of the species of these different genera are com- pared by sculpture alone without considering the factor of the hinge structure, they could easily be grouped as belonging to the same genus. This may be illustrated by reference to the figure of Ecuadoiea ? minor de Oliveira Roxo (1937, figs. 2, 3). The por- tion of the shell figured therein certainly appears similar to the fragment figured herewith, Plate 3, figure 4, as well as to that of De Greve (1938, pl. 7, fig. 25). However, an examination of the figures of the hinges of the three fragments reveals that De Oliveira Roxo is probably right in that his shell is nearer to Ec- uadorea, at least it is not the same as the Venezuelan species of this paper. Ecuadorea and Castalioides can be differentiated from the genera listed above in that the divaricate sculpture is not lim- ited to the umbonal region but finer zigzag ribs extend further 16 BULLETIN 118 16 over the surface of the valve, particularly over the anterior regiou. Ecuadorea and Castalioides also have convex plump umbonal areas as in Diplodon, while the //yria-Prodiplodon group has flattened umbos. Triplodon latowi Pilsbry and Olsson (1935, p. 10, pl. 5, figs. 3-5) has txe coarse umbonal V-shaped sculpture but belongs in the group cf plumper shells rather than to the Proc iplo/on fo:ms. Prodiplodon tipswordi, n. sp. Plate 38, figs. 1, 4, 7-10 Large shell; straight hinge line; posterior end obliquely pro- duced; anterior end short with, on the best preserved specimens, the pinched lines of a brief alation; umbos flattened; a slight sug- gestion of an umbonal ridge; over the umbos are conspictious radiating unculations which form a V-shaped pattern; remainder of the shell sriocth except for coarse lines of growth; hinge in the right valve with a pseudocardinal beneath the beak made up of a broad series. cf fine denticles; anterior to the mid-cardinal series is a pseudocardinal which is longer and broken up into three main rugose denticles. In the right valve there is a short anterior socket, also a long posterior socket with a long posterior lateral below, The ovly available hinges of the left valve are madequate for description except by assumption as the complement of that of the right valve. The posterior end (see fiz. 7, Pl. 3) may be bent or twisted from pressure after burial. The shells of this species might be confused with the more elon- gate flatter individuals of H. trinitaria, However, the specimens may be differentiated readily by the presence of the conspicuous radiating V-shaped umbonal plicee on P. tipswordi. Uncleaned mudcaked specimens of P. tipswordi which have the umbonal area covered might be confused with H. ¢rinitaria. Although the shape is, in general, similar, P. tipswordi lacks the conspicuous sharp posterior umbonal ridge and the sharp posterior plica of H. trinitaria. The slight suggestion of the umbonal ridge on P- tipswordi and the lack of the posterior plicze on some specimens of H. trinitaria require caution in using such characters too rigid- ly. The hinges of the two species differ as may be seen from the illustrations. Just how much Prodiplodon should be separated from Hyria is still a question. Whether the species as separated by Marshall, NY/ Moxtuuscan Fosstts From Monaaas: K. PALMER ily as well as this Venezuelan species, should be included under the first specific name, /ongula Conrad, remains to be proven. Be- cause of minor differences in the umbonal sculptural pattern be- tween the Peruvian and Venezuelan material, | am differentiating them specifically. The real affinity of the forms ought not to be obscured by the many names.

Paleont., vol” XX VI, No. 100, pt: 2; 1941, p. 46, pl. 8, figs. 6-8. This genus is known so far only by the genotype, C. /addi Mar- shall, fossil from Venezuela. Hcuwadorea Marshall and Bowles (10225. p55), plete hes, 77 O Palmer 1941; p.c45,. pln 7. fies > 1-6) displays a remarkable similarity of ornamentation. In the matter ct correlation during the work on the Ecuadorean material, the problem arose as to the relationship between Castalioides and Ec- uadorea. Dr, H. S. Ladd kindly loaned me two topotypes of C. laddi. YVhese revealed worn hinges. of both valves. The only available hinge material of /;cwadorea is imperfect and because of this the nature of the complete details of the hinge of that genus is in doubt. In the case of C. laddi, a specimen in the present material contains a perfect portion of the hinge of the left valve (Plate 2; fig. 17). By comparing this figure with that of the former worn hinge illustration (Palmer, 1941, pl. 8, fig. 7), one can see the fundamental element of “two cardinals” (pseudocar- dinals), but the areas between and back of the ‘‘cardinals” are very rugose. Only part of such rugosity was retained in the 1941 specimen. Therefore worn specimens with the corrugated area obliterated present the impression of more sharply defined teeth than actually exist.

Subgenus CYANOCYCLAS de Blainville [Férussac], 1818 Dall, 1903, p. 1448, 1450; Marshall, 1924, pp. 10-11; Marshall, 1927. The subgenus is confined to Central and South America. Nu- merous species have been described from the rivers and bays of those areas. C. J. Maury (1925) described three species of fossil Cyan- ocyclas from Trinidad, one from the Miocene and two from the Pliocene. Two were named from the middle or late Tertiary of the Cuenca Basin, Ecuador, by the writer (1941, pp. 51, 52). The 19 Mouuuscan Fossius From Monaaas: K. PALMER 19 present Venezuelan fossil species are not specifically identical with those from Trinidad or Ecuador. Pilsbry (1944, p. 1406) reported unidentifiable remains of the genus from the Red Beds of the Pachitea River, Peru. C. monagasensis by its trigonal shape is more suggestive of some of the Recent species of that configuration (Prime, 1865, figs. 3, 5). Vhe more orbicular outline of C. desolai approaches the circular shape of C. circularis Marshall (1924, p. 3, pl. 2, figs. 1-3) of the Uruguay River. Corbicula (Cyanocyelas) desolai, n. sp. Plater2> fies: 8. 125 3° 16 Shell small, plump, ovate; posterior end broad and rounded; posterior dorsal slope oblique ; three cardinals in each valve ; mid- dle and posterior cardinals of the right valve bifid; anterior and middle cardinals of the left valve bifid; laterals long, thin, and mucroscopically striated; surface with coarse concentric striz. This species differs from C. monagasensis, n. sp., of the same size, with which it is associated, in the less trigonal shape of C. desolai. The species, as well as C. monagasensis, is distinct from C. com- farana Maury (1925, p. 173, pl. 30, figs. 1, 4, 8, 10-12) of the lower Pliocene of Trinidad which because of its stratigraphic as well as geographic position might be compared with the Vene- zuelan species. C. desolai has a broader posterior end, smaller and less elevated beaks, and the umbos of both valves meet. In C. comparana, as may be seen from the original illustration (pl. 30, fig. 1), the beaks are enlarged, elevated, and conspicuously separated. C. desolai has a decidedly smaller and more deli- cate hinge than C. comparana. C. comparana also attains a much larger size than C, desolai. Specimens of the two species have been compared by utilizing the syntypes and large suite of topo- types of C. comparana in the Paleontological Research Institution. In shape C. desolai suggests more that of the Trinidad Miocene species, C. caroniana Maury, (1925, p. 174, pl. 30, fig. 9) but the Venezuelan species differs from C. cavoniara by the more delicate hinge and the broader and more rounded posterior end of C. desolat.

Shell almost equilateral but there is variation from this shape when the posterior end is extended one or two millimeters more than the anterior. Intermediate forms grade into the extremes. The surface is covered with coarse concentric strie. The trigonal shape of C. monagasensis distinguishes it from C. desolai. There is the possibility that this torm is a variety of C. desolai. Both have similar sculpture and are of the same size. C. desolai in the collection studied is rep- resented by about four times as many specimens as this form.

Family CORBULIDA® Genus OSTOMYA Conrad, 1874 The generic synonymy and references to this interesting genus are given in Pilsbry (1944, p. 147) and need not be repeated herve The present species adds another link in the distributional chain of the genus and increases the knowledge of the geographic as well as the stratigraphic range of the group. The oldest known occurrence of the genus is in the La Cira formation, upper Oligocene or lower Miocene of the Magdalena Valley, Colombia, (Pilsbry and Olsson, 1935, p. 21, pl. 5, fig. 7) and in the Rio Pachitea beds of eastern Peru (Pilsbry, 1944, p. 149, pl. 11). The genotype is found in the Pebas beds, probably Pliocene, of Peru, (Conrad, 1874, p. 30, pl. 1, fig. 6) and the pres- ent species from Venezuela adds another representative to the fossil list. eal Mo.Luuscan Fosstts From Monaqas: K. PALMER! 21 So far Recent species of the genus have been discovered in the Rio Maranon (O. fluviatilis H. Adams) and in the Essequibo, Mazaruni and Cuyuni rivers of British Guiana (O. sinuoswim (Morrison)*. Today the species live in fresh water, In the case of the British Guiana form, the species is found in extreme tidal areas of the rivers. The habitat of the fossil species of the Colom- bian and Peruvian localities had a subordinate element of salt water. Ostomya mencheri, n. sp. . Plate 2, figs. 1-7 Shell oblong, subequilateral ; dorsal and ventral margins nearly Ss) dS » parallel, dorsal line curved slightly ventrad posteriorly ; anterior end produced a little; posterior end truncated; umbonal ridge extends from the beaks to the posterior ventral margin, back of which is a concave area; medium concavity present but varies in prominence. The oblique ventral outline (PI. 2, fig. 2) is discern- ible although its conspicuousness varies. (Compare Pilsbry, 1944, p. 148 and Morrison, 1943, pl. 8, fig. 4). The presence of the oblique twist of the shell may be readily noted on the lateral sur- face of the valves on such specimens as that figured on Plate 2, figure 5. Sculpture of fine concentric wrinkles only, some coars- er than others. This species bears a very close resemblance to the Recent O. fluziatilis as illustrated by Pilsbry (1944, pl. 11, figs. 42-44). It differs from that species in having the anterior end more pro- duced, 7. e., the beaks are less terminal in the Venezuelan form than in the living species, The posterior umbonal fold or ridge appears stronger in this fossil although the apparent difference might be due to comparing many specimens with but few figures. O. mencheri has about the same amount of anterior production as O. sinuoswm (Morrison), Recent, of the rivers of British Guiana. This fossil differs from O. sinwoswm in the less obli- quity of the ventral margin and lack of radial striations in O. mencheri. The pertinent and interesting point im the comparisons of the species of Ostomya so far known is that the Venezuelan species 4 Morrison, J. P. H.: Nautilus, vol. 57, No. 2, 1943, pp. 46-52, pl. 8, as Guwianadesra sinuosum Morrison. 22 BULLETIN 118 99 bears a greater resemblance to the species of the Recent fauna and from the Pliocene Pebas beds than it does to the fossil spe- cies of the genus from the older strata of Colombia and Peru. The species is common at the La Llanera locality, the shells forming a coquina in places. Dimensions —Length, 20 mm.; height, 11 mm.; thickness, 8 mm. (double valves together) (holotype).

Family PILIDAD (AMPULLARITIDE) Genus ASOLENE d’Orbigny, 1837 Section LIMNOPOMUS Dall, 1904 Dall, 1904, pp. 50-55; Reeve, 1856 (Illustrations) ; Sowerby, 1909, pp. 345-362; Alderson, 1925 (Illustrations); Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927, pp. 166-170; Thiele, 1929, pp. 117-118; Baker, 1930, pp. 1-26. The “Ampullariidz” are well represented in the living fauna of the tropics ranging from Central America to the system of the Rio de la Plata. Alderson (1925) enumerated and illustrated 53 western species, and Baker (1930) identified 13 species from Venezuela. Most of the genera of the family are perforate. An exception is the genus -lsolenc, of which the section Limnopomus Dall has a heavily calloused columella, The type of Limnopomus is “Ampullaria” columellaris Gould (1851 (1848), p. 74; 1862, p. 51; Reeve, 1856, pl. XXVIII, fig. 134 A. Sprucei; Alderson, 1925, pl. XI, tig. 8) of Peru. The present ampullaroid fossil ob- viously belongs in the category of that species. Dall proposed Limnopomus as a section of “Ampullaria.” Pils- bry and Bequaert (1927, p. 169, footnote) suggested that Lim- nopomus would probably prove to be a subordinate group of Asolene, a move which Theile carried out (1929, p. 118). Sow- erby (1909, p. 347), however, maintained that the columella may be opened or closed in the same species and therefore the char- acter is not constant enough to base a group upon. Alderson came to the conclusion that although the character upon which the section was founded is not consistent, nevertheless, the group does have certain characters which warrant a distinct place in the genus, 23 Mo.3uuscan Fosstns From Monacas: K. PALMER 23 The species of this family are frequently designated as Am- pullaria. Since the sanction of Bolteniam names, the name A fullaria Lamarck, 1799, is replaced by the synonymous name of Pila Bolten [Roeding], 1798 (Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927, p. 169). Pila is a genus of the Eastern Hemisphere. Pomacea Perry, 1811, is an ampullaroid genus of the Western Hemisphere. “Ampullaria, sp.” was reported by De Greve as frequent in the fossil fauna of Iquitos, Peru, (De Greve, 1938, pp. 77, 118, 125) but the specimens were too badly deformed for description, De Greve suggested that the fragment of a “large gastropod” which C. Barrington Brown (1879, p. 79) found in the beds of equiva- lent age in the upper Amazon below Canama, on the Javary River (Peruvian side), was an “lmpullaria.” De Oliveira Roxo (1935, p. 7) reported “Ampullaria” from the Pliocene of the Rio Jurua, Brazil. No specific descriptions or figures accompany the above citations So that one cannot compare the present species with pos- sible allies of Pebas age. . Anderson (1928, p. 23, pl. 1, figs. 19, 20) figured and described “Ampullaria’” guaduasensis from the Guaduas Eocene of Colom- bia. That species has a general resemblance to A. guatalensis but the latter has a more rounded body whorl. The Pomacea bibliana Marshall and Bowles (1932, p. 4, pl. 1, figs. 4, 5; Palmer, 1941, p. 42), fossil from the Cuenca Basin of Ecuador, has a flattened spire and a less globose body whorl. Pilsbry described Pomacea manco (1944, p. 145, pl. 11, figs. 31, 32), a fossil from the Red Beds on the Pachitea River, Peru. That species is smaller than the adult of A. llanerensis, and the immature shells of the present species have a more elevated spire and elongate aperture. Asolene guatalensis, n. sp. Plate 3, figs. 5, 6, 13 Shell medium in size; the immature shell is elongate in shape with the spire elevated; the adult body whorl is broadened, and the spire is more subdued; umbilicus closed and the columella is covered with a well-developed callus. The presence of the longi- tudinal bands or varices of excess growth at the outer lip are indi- cated on the surface in specimens, and on one eroded example there are three heavy bands on the whorls in a tripartite spacing. 24 BULLETIN 118 24 The bands are so strengthened that they form conspicuous grooves in the sl.ell As discussed above this species belongs in the imperforate group, 2 minority of the ampullaroids. The typical species is Re- cent from Peru. The genotype of Asolene is A. plate Maton from La I'lata and other species of the genus occur in Brazil. The Venezuelan fossil differs from those Recent species in its short- ened height in the adult and less rounded basal contour of the body whorl of the immature shells, How constant the umbilical covering is remains to be seen, The collection of the species con- sists of seven immature and two adult shells.

C., 1945. Planorbis, a name formerly used in a broad sense, is now ap- plied to a genus limited in distribution to Europe, northern Af- rica, Asia (Siberia), and Asia Minor, No attempt is made here to determine the genus of the form described. One specimen only was found, and since the generic classification of the Planorbidz is based on the anatomy of the animal, one can hardly apply such a scheme to this fossil shell. Tropicorbis Pilsbry and Brown (Baker, 1945, pp. 80-85) is a South American genus to which this Venezuelan fossil may be related. Lateorbis F. C. Baker (1945, p. 85), subgenus of Tropi- corbis, has the body whorl enlarged, a character which applies to this shell better than the shape of the genus, sensu stricto, does. Conrad (1874, p. 30) described but did not illustrate “Planor- bis” pebasana from the Pebas beds of Peru. He was not sure but that his specimens might have been Recent forms washed into the deposit. “Planorbis” bourguyi de Oliveira Roxo (1924, fig. f£) was discovered in the upper Amazon layers at Tres Unidos, and De Greve (1938, p. 107, pl. 4, figs. 29, 30) figured a form 25 Mouiuscan Fossins From Monacgas: K. Patmrr ° rE from strata of the same age at Iquitos, Peru. All of the shells mentioned are very small and so are not comparable to the large species described herein, “Planorbis” llanerensis, n. sp. Plater ailesa2, a Shell large, ultradextral, orbicular ; spire sunken ; whorls about 314, body whorl large; aperture large, rounded; umbilicus large, deep, and broad; body whorl and aperture extend above the umbilical area (fig. 2 oriented as below) ; surface smooth ; sutural areas channelled. The picture of the holotype, the only specimen available of the species, was taken before the apical and umbilical areas were ex- cavated. The lower side (apical) as figured shows the first whorls covered with rock matrix and a side view (figure 2) presents the impression of an elevated spire. This conception should be mod- ified because the spire is sunken. The periphery of the aperture has been crushed and has the appearance of being carinated, Such a semblance is misleading. The general shape and aspect of this species suggest that of Australorbis glabratus (Say) as figured in Laker (1945, pl. 77, figs. 30, 31), top and bottom views. «1. glabratus has more whorls and the aperture does not extend beyond the wicth of the whorls so far as in P. llanerensis.

AMERICAN PALEONTOLOGY Vol. 31 A NEW LOWER CHEMUNG CRINOID By Winifred Goldring New York State Museum, Albany, N. Y. August 13, 1946 Paleontological Research Institution Ithaca, New York, U. S. A. ot Com PO ootegy DD AUG 231946 {lamaR’ A NEW LOWER CHEMUNG CRINOID By WINIFRED GOLDRING New York State Museum, Albany, N. Y. Through the kindness of Max J. Kopf of Buffalo, N. Y., the writer has had the opportunity of studying 55 specimens of a new species of crinoid in various stages of preservation. Two other species assigned to the genus have been described in The De- vonian Crinoids of the State of New York (N. Y. State Mus., Mem. 16, 1923), pp. 438, 440, pl. 57, Loganocrinus geniculatus Goldring from the Hamilton (Moscow) beds and L. infundibul- formis Goldring from the lower Chemung beds. Of these two species L. kopfi bears closest resemblance to the other lower Che- mung form, Loganocrinus kopfi, n. sp. Plate 1, figs. 1-6 Dorsal cup. Funnel-shaped when seen from the anterior side. The specimens are crushed or not well preserved, and in only one specimen (figure 4) can the plates of the posterior side be dis- tinguished. This last mentioned specimen is so crushed that it would be difficult to say whether there is any bulging in the anal region. In one specimen (figure 1) the dorsal cup has a height of 7 mm., width at the base, 2.3 mm. and at the top of the radials, 71mm. A second specimen (figures 2, 3) shows the following measurements: height, 6 mm., width at base, 2.6 mm. (exagger- ated by crushing), width at top of radials, 6 mm. A smaller spec- imen shows a height of 5.5 mm., width at base, 1.8 mm., width at top of radials, 5.4 mm. These and other specimens in the collec- tion indicate a somewhat larger species than L. imfundibuliformts. The infrabasals are comparatively large, pentagonal, the lateral faces somewhat the longest. In the third specimen mentioned an infrabasal has a height of 1 mm and a width at the top of 1.1 mm. ; 4 BULLETIN 119 38 in the second specimen a height of 1.5 mm, with the width not ac- curately obtainable. Three of the basals are hexagonal, the pos- terior and right postero-lateral heptagonal. Average basal in the three specimens have heights of 3.6 mm., 3.1 mm., and 2.1 mm. and widths of 3 (?) mm, 2.1 mm., and 1.4 mm., respectively. The radials are heptagonal, with the radial facet nearly as wide as the radial. Average radials in the first two specimens have heights and widths of 2.6 mm.;-in the smallest specimen an aver- age radial has a height of 1.7 mm. and a width at the top of 1.8 mm. The anal area, poorly preserved in one specimen (figure 4), shows a large, pentagonal radianal and a somewhat smaller, pen- tagonal anal x These plates and the lower, large plates of the anal tube show faint radiating ridges. Tegmen. The anal x and radianal are followed by several large, apparently hexagonal plates. The anal tube is long and slender, probably reaching almost to the arm tips; after the first few large plates composed of vertical rows of very short, broad plates. As in L. infundibuliformis a median dorsal ridge extends the full length of the tube. Two typical specimens (figures 5, 6) show for the anal tube lengths of 32.4 mm. and 37 mm. and widths of 3.3 mm. and 4.6 mm., respectively. Arms. As in L. infundibuliformis the two primibrachs ‘togeth- er have an hour glass appearance (figure 1). The first primibrach is quadrangular, having roughly the appearance of a truncated triangle, though narrower at the middle than at the top. The ptimaxil is pentagonal, distinctly longer than the primibrach, broader at the base than at the middle, giving an hour glass ap- pearance. An average specimen (figure 1) has a combined height of 3.7 mm. for the two primibrachs. The arms are long and slender, 42 mm, being the greatest length observed. The brachials are quadrangular to slightly wedge-shaped, every second one bearing a pinnule alternately on each side uf the arm, giving a slightly zigzag effect to the arms. Of each pair of brachials the first is shorter. In one of the better preserved specimens (figure 1) a slight dorsal keel is indicated on the primibrachs and all the brachials. The pinnules are long and slender (measurements up to 10 mm.) and composed of long ossicles. 39 New CHEMUNG CRINOID: GOLDRING By Column. Strongly pentagonal, the angles made more promin- ent by nodular thickening of the columnals there. The column is comparatively stout for such slender forms. The column varies in the several specimens from a diameter of 1.2 mm. to a diame- ter of 1.7 mm., possibly 2mm. There is slight difference between the diameter at the base of the calyx and at a point a few centi- meters distant. The columnals are shorter near the calyx, but in a few millimeters there is an alternation of this type with slightly longer ones and there the columnals are fairly constant. Occasionally in more distal portions of the column every fourth columnal, though not noticeably longer than the others, seems to be thickened and gives the appearance of a nodal. The columns of these specimens are not well preservd. Horizon and locality —From the lower Chemung beds (Alfred shale), Alfred Station, Allegany Co., N. Y. Types—The syntypes are in the collection of Max J. Kopf, Buffalo, N. Y. Remarks.—Though bearing a strong resemblance to L. infundi- buliformis, L. kopfimay be readily distinguished from it. L. kopfi is a larger species with less slender dorsal cup, the two primi- brachs are not only hourglass-shaped together but each gives that appearance individually. The arms in this species show two sizes of brachials and tendency toward development of a dorsal keel. The column is comparatively stout and pentagonal in contrast te tie slender, rounded stem of L. infundibuliformis which widens for a few millimeters just below the base of the dorsal cup.

By 7 WiLLtIAM Marcus INGRAM Mills College, California INTRODUCTION One of the problems confronting those working with fossil and living Mollusca is the lack of current compilations, bringing to- gether data published at widely different times and in a variety of journals on specific families of Mollusca. Such compilations, done by those familiar with certain molluscan families, provide for a better understanding of specific relationships and distri- butional problems for those working generally on vast molluscan faunas made up of many families. Here an attempt is made to clarify, whenever possible, the relationships of the Cypreidz from the western regions of the Americas, and from the avail- able data at hand to briefly discuss distributional and migrational problems, In clarification of the data from the western regions of the Americas, the writer has included the Pacific Coast of the Amer- icas and the islands off the coast. Because stratezic distributional problems revolve about the final formation of the Central Ameri- can land bridge, closing a migrational path for marine forms sometime in the Miocene, the cowry fauna of both the Pacific and Atlantic sides of Mexico, Central America, and that of northern Colombia and Venezuela are included. The Cypreidz are here divided into those found only in the fossil state and into those found either living or living and fossil. A total of 60 species and subspecies are listed from the western regions of the Americas: 21 species have a present day distri- bution in the shore waters about the continents and islands 1 This work was supported by a grant-in-aid from the Sigma Xi Re- search Mund, 6 BULLETIN 120 48 bordering them; I1 extinct species are found along the West Coast of North America; 28 extinct species are found in Central America and in the western area of South America. In formulating the bibliography on extinct fossil species much time was consumed in tracing scattered literature pertinent to the subject; with this in mind, the original descriptions of the extinct species are included to facilitate the work of those study- ing large molluscan assemblages. With the living species, which are better known, the writer refers one to Reeve (1845), Sower- by (1870), or Tryon (1885), feeling that the original descrip- tions would be superfluous. The writer has attempted to make the bibliography as complete as possible in discussing relation- ships of Cypreeide from the western regions of the Americas with those from the entire Western Hemisphere. By virtue of visits to the collections of the United States National Museum, Washington, D. C., California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco, California, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard Univer- sity, Cambridge, Massachusetts, University of California, Berke- ley, California, Paleontological Research Institution, Ithaca, New York, and the Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the writer has been able to gather accurate loval- ity data, and to examine all but a few of the holotypes of tle extinct species considered herein. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The author wishes to especially acknowledge the aid received irom Dr. Leo George Hertlein who placed many valuable hours of his time at the disposal of the writer, and to thank Dr. G. Dallas Hanna who initially made available the collections of the California Academy of Sciences for study.

POPLIN) SPECIES OPV WESTERN UNORTHCAMERICA The extinct species from western North America date from Cretaceous time. Two species, Cyprea squyerti Campbell and Cyprea suciensis Whiteaves, have been reported, respectively, from the Cretaceous of Montana and British Columbia. It may well be that with future explorations of Cretaceous beds that other Cypreeidee of this age will be found*. Eight Eocene species, Cyprea bayerquei Gabb, Cyprea castacensis Stewart, Cyprea fresnoensis Anderson, Cyprea kempere Nelson, Cyprea mathew- sonu Gabb, Cyprea novasuma (Nelson), Cyprea_ simiensis Nelson, and Gisortia clarki Ingram make this epoch that of greatest cowry abundance in western North America. One species, Cyprea oakvillensis Van Winkle, is found in the Oligo- cene, and the Miocene has one species, Cyprea henikeri amandust Hertlein and Jordan. With the material now at hand no apparent close relation- ship can be pointed out between these extinct species, with the exception of Cyprea henikeri amandusi-Hertlein and Jordan in its relationship to more southern fossil species*. This lack of ” Personal communication—the late Dr. F. M. Anderson, retired Cur- ator of Paleontology of the California Academy of Sciences, was deserib- ing at Ica t three Cretaceous Cyprwide from California. The relationship of C. henikeri amandusi Hertlein and Jordan to species living elsewhere is discussed in a later section. 3ULLETIN 120 50 apparent relationship is due, in part, to poor preservation of holo- tvpes, for in several instances the holotype represents the only record of the species, Three West Coast species are known only as casts, and one does not reveal the characteristics of the aper- ture. Thus, it is not justifiable to point out theoretical relation- ships when important shell characters are unknown. Schilder (1932), having illustrations available and not having examined the actual mollusks, has apparently used a_ genus, “Focyprea’, as a catch-all for several West Coast species, as as well as for species occuring elsewhere in the Western Hem- isphere. He includes the following species in this genus: Cyprea oakvillensis Van Winkle, the holotvpe showing that only shell fragments remain, and that the specimen is typically a cast; Cyprea bayerquet Gabb, known only from a single specimen, a cast, that certainly does not reveal the characteristics enabling one to place it in any particular genus; Cyprea bayerque! casta- censis Stewart (=Cyprea castacensis Stewart), a well-preserved specimen, which shows no relationship to the above two species; Cyprea novasuma (Nelson), a small species, far re- moved from the ones above is also included in the “ELocyprea”. Schilder (1932) places Cyprea fresnoensis Anderson in a genus, “Cypreaorbis,” with such species as Cyprea alabamensis de Gre- gorio, Cyprea nuculoides Aldrich, and Cyprea spheroides Con- rad. Cyprea fresnoensis Anderson was illustrated through the use of line drawings by Anderson (1905) when he described this species. The type was practically destroyed by the great San Francisco fire of 1906, and now remains as an unrecog- nizeable cast; certainly the original drawings and the cast do not reveal characteristics enabling one to place it correctly in a specific genus in the much-divided Linnean genus, Cyprea. This “throwing together’ of species into various genera by Schilder (1932) is certainly unjustified and is misleading to workers trying to assemble faunal data. There is no doubt of the possible value of such a catalogue as Schilder (1932) at- tempted to make, but it should certainly never be attempted by one who is apparently as unfamiliar with the entire fossil Cypreidze fauna as is indicated by the willingness of Schilder 51 West AMERICAN Cypra@#ipa: INGRAM y (1932) to place species in innumerable genera and subgenera without an awareness of the true characteristics of relationship. The writer feels that such brief comments should be made here to clarify the confusion established by Schilder (1932) in plac- ing species that he did not know into his genera and subgenera and thereby creating many conceptions of true relationship when in reality such relationship does not exist. It should not be mis- understood that the writer is criticizing a reduction of such a large Linnean genus as Cyprea into genera and subgenera if apparent relationship exists; the criticism is for the worker, un- familiar with the vast fossil Cypraidze fauna of the world, who will publish a catalogue on the basis of close relationship with- out adequate material or knowledge of such a large array of species. Gisortia clarki Ingram, although not related to vet any de- scribed West Coast species, seems to show affinity to Gisortia tuberculosa (Duclos) from the Ypresian stage, Paris Basin, France, a European species used by Clark and Vokes (1936) for their intercontinental correlation of West Coast Eocene and European Eocene faunas. To date the holotype of G. clarki In- gram from the Capay stage. Llajas formation, lower zone, Simi Valley, Ventura County, California, is the only specimen that has been collected. EXTINCT -SRPECLES OF WESTERN*SOUTH AMERICA AND OF CENTRAL AMERICA Of the extinct species from this region of the Americas six Species are from the Eocene; two from thee Oligocene; thirteen from the Miocene; five from the Pliocene; and one is Recent. Preservation, unlike that of fossils from the West Coast of North America, is excellent, and individuals of a species are much more abundant. One Eocene species, Cyprea boggsi Olsson, is referred by Olsson (1928) to the subgenus Monetaria, indicating that it may be related to the Cyprea moneta Linneeus, Cyprea annulus Linn- eus, and Cyprea obvellata Lamarck group of Cypreide, one 10 BULLETIN 120 O2 with a wide present-day Indo-Pacific distribution. The affinity of C. boggst Olsson with the subgenus Mojctaria should be questioned, for the teeth and canals are not those of the Mone- taria. Cyprea saltoensis Clark from the Eocene of Colombia, although a great deal larger than C. boggst Olsson, seems to show some affinity to it; the anterior columellar teeth, in both, appear similar in that two of these nearly extend over the base; the central teeth on the columellar side are relatively small in both, while the posterior columellar teeth are elongate and ex- tend a good way over the base. The shell of Cyprea boyggst Olsson is more elongate in proportion to its width. The anter- ior and posterior canals are partially filled with matrix in C. boggsi Olsson and cannot be compared, and the outer lip at the aperture is not well enough preserved to allow for comparison. Cyprea pijiguayensis Clark, likewise from the Eocere of Colom- bia, is a small species which appears to be unrelated to other West Coast Cypreide. An Oligocene species Cypredia chira Olsson, was described by Olsson (1931) from the lower Oligocene of Peru. Clark de- scribed a Cypredia carmenensis from the Eocene of Colombia. Other Cypredia, described from the Western Hemisphere appar- ently with the exception of Cypredia chira Olsson, denote the presence of strata of Eocene time, Trechmann (1923) described Cypredia subelegans and listed Cypredia clegans (Defrance = Sowerby) from the “Yellow limestone” of Jamaica, which prob- ably represents a middle Eocene occurrence. Schilder (1939a) described two species, Cypredia vistabellensis and Cypredia kugleri from the upper Eocene of Trinidad. Palmer (1937) enum- erated two species, Cypredia gilberti and Cypredia subcancellata (Johnson), from the Claiborne, middle Eocene of North America ; the former species was described from the Gosport sand of Mon- roe County, Alabama, and the latter from the Claiborne Eocene of Smithville, Bastrop County, Texas. Conrad (1854) described the first Cypredia from North America as Cypredia fenestralis (Conrad) from the Jackson, upper Eocene of Jackson, Mississip- pi. No present day, living Cypredia are found in the Western Hemisphere, the genus representing an extinct group of Cypre- ide. Evidence presented here would indicate that possibly this { eo West AMERICAN CyPRaIDa: INGRAM 11 genus might be used as an index for Eocene time in the West- ern Hemisphere. Eight Miocene species, Cyprea almirantensis Olsson from the Banana River, Panama, Gatun stage, middle Miocene, Cyprea angustirima Spieker from Quebrada Zapotal, Peru, lower Zor- ritos, middle Miocene, Cyprea henikert Sowerby from the Mio- cene of Costa Rica, Panama, and Santo Domingo, Cyprea heni- keri isthmica (Schilder) from the excavations of the locks at Gatun, Isthmus of Panama, Miocene, Cyprea quagga (Schilder) from the Miocene of Venezuela, Cyvprea andersoni Ingram and Cyprea tubere Ingram from Tubera Hill, one mile west of Tu- bera, Colombia, Miocene, and:Cyprea cayapa Pilsbry and Olsson from the Pliocene of Ecuador, are related to each other, and to several extinct and one living species of Cypreid@ found else- where in the Western Hemisphere. The living species is Cyprea mus Linneus, found in the waters about Colombia and Vene- zuela, and possibly having a wider Caribbean distribution. Re- lated extinct species are Cyprea henikeri poternois Ingram (Plate 1, figs. 1, 2) from the Miocene of Santo Domingo, (In- gram, 1939b), Cyprea nouler Maury (Plate 3, fig. 13) from the Miocene of Santo Domineo (Maury, 1917), (Ingram, 1939<, 1942), and from the Miocene of Jamaica (Schilder, 1939a), and Cyprea henikeri amandusi Hertlein and Jordan from the San Ignacio Arroya, San Ignacio, Lower California, Isidro forma- tion, lower Miocene (Hertlein and Jordan, 1927), (Ingram 1942), Thus this group of closely related species with the ex- ception of the living representative and Cyprea cayapa Pilsbry and Olsson is restricted-to the Miocene of the Western Hem- isphere. Pilsbry and Olsson (1941) indicate that their C. cayapa may belong to an older “fossiliferous series’ than the Pliocene, for it is covered with a growth of bryozoans and pierced by bor- ing organisms It thus may be possible to use the above cowries as a guide to Miocene time in the Western Hemisphere. The «riter will refer to the above species as the “Cyprea hentkeri eroup” of Cypreide. As the above data indicate, this cowry group was living on heth sides cf the Central American region before it was closed to marine migrations sometime in the Miocene. No living West Coast forms appear to be in anyway related to this group. Three species which apparently show close affinity with the 12 BULLETIN 120 54 Cyprea henikeri group are found in the lower and upper Mio- cene of the East Indies; three of these species Cyprea caputi- pera Martin, Cyprea beberkiriana Martin, and Cyprea mur- isimilis Martin, have been recorded from the Miocene of Java, and a fourth, Cvprea humerosa Sowerby, was described from the “Tertiary formations, Cutch,” from the lower Miocene of west- ern India, Sowerby (1840). Vredenburg (1920) in his comprehensive paper on the class- ification of fossil Cypreide referred to herein, called the Cyproa henikerit group, the group of Cyprea mus, denoting merely a difference in selected names Included in Vredenburg’s (1920) group are North American fossil species that the writer has exam- ined, and by differences in shell characteristics they vividly show no close knit relationship with the above members of the Cyprea henikeri group; such species seemingly unjustihably placed in Vredenburg’s Cyprea mus group are: Cyprea spheroi’es Con- rad, Cyprea chilona Dall, Cyprea alabamensis de Grezorio, Cyprea carolinensis Conrad, Cyprea tumulus Heilprin, and Cyprea pinguis Conrad. A living species also included in Vre- denburg’s group, with a disregard of shell characteristics, is Cyprea caput-draconis, a tropical Pacific species which is close- ly allied to Cyprea caputserpentis Linneeus. Possibly others in his Cyprea mus group should not be there, but the writer has not had the opportunity to examine a number of the European species that he lists. Schilder (1932) has referred many of the above species mak- ing up the closely knit Cyprea henikeri group to the genus Siphocyprea. In doing this he has completely disregarded the characteristics of the genotype, Siphocypraa problematica Heil- prin, a species removed from other cowries by an incurved lip on the posterior canal, and the only species yet described with this character. Siphocyprea problematica Heilprin is common in the Pliocene along certain regions of the Caloosahatchee River in Florida. Heilprin (1887) in proposing Siphocyfrea as a subgenus stated, “I propose this subvenus for a group of re- markable Cyprzas, which differ from all other members of this family in the possession of a deep, comma-shaped sulcus or de- pression, occupying the apical portion of the shell, and which, 55) West AMERICAN CypRaiIpDa: INGRAM 13 as the posterior continuation of the aperture, is curved dex- trally around the axis of involution... . The other characters of the shell are those of the Cypreea generally.” Schilder (1932) also groups species not related to each other under Siphec.p: @a, typically represented only by S. problematica Heilpein. Such species showing no relationship to those of the Cyprea ie.tkeii group (=Schilder’s (1932) Siphocyprea) are: Cyprea pennai (White), Cyprea carolinensis Conrad, Cyprea_ carolinensis flori’anus Mansfield, and Sulcocyprea problematica Weilprin. Nuclearia gabbiana (Guppy) is recorded here in the West Coast Cypreide as reported from the Miocene of northern Co- lembia by Anderson (1928). This species is found also in the Miocene of Haiti and Trinidad (Guppy, 1837), (Vilsbry, 1922), (Maury, 1917), and (Ingram, 1939a, 1942). No extinct species related to N. gabbiana (Guppy) are found in the Western Hem- isphere. Closely allied living species are, however, found living in the more central Pacific. The notable living allied species is Nuclearia nucleus (Linneus), ranging in general distribution from the Hawaiian and Tuamotu Islands into the Philippine region. A probable living descendent of N. nucleus Linneeus in the Hawaiian Islands is N. madagascariensis (Gmelin), Ingram (1939e). Nuclearia madagascariensis (Gmelin) has been re- ported from the Pleistocene of the Hawanan Islands by Oster- eaard (1928). If N. gabbiana is the probable progenitor of N. nucleus (Linneus), the Western Hemisphere may then repre- sent the center of origin from which the now widely distributed N. nucleus (Linneus) arose. Nuclearia gabbiana (Guppy) may at this time be used to indicate the presence of. Miocene time in the \Vestern Hemisphere. Two Pliocene forms, Cyprea cinerea morius Ingram from Moen Hill, Costa Rica, and Cyprea cinerea limonensis Ingram from Limon, Costa Rica, show relationships to Cypreeidze. living and extinct, in the Western Hemisphere. The two species are related to Cyprea cinerea Gmelin, found living on the Atlantic side of Central America and having an extensive Caribbean range. Cyprea cinerea Gmelin has been reported in the fossil state from the Miocene of Costa Rica by Olsson (1922), from 14 BULLETIN 120 56 the Miocene of Santo Domingo by Vilsbry (1g22) and by In- vram (1939a, 1940), from the Pleistocene (?) of Barbados by Schilcer (1939a), and as a_ subfossil from the Bahamas hb, Dall (1905). The Miocene species, Cyprea cComiiticensis Gabb, Cescribed from Santo Domingo, and reported from the Miocene of Panama by Olsson (1922), and from the Miocene of Costa Rica and Panama by ingram (1940), is related to the above species and subspecies. Another Miocene species, Cyprea campbelliana Pilsbry, reported from the Miocene of Santo Do- mingo by Pilsbry (1922) is closely allied to the above species and subspecies. Cyprea cinerea Gmelin has a living distribu- tion encompassing the entire Caribbean area, ranging from Florida throuzh the Pahama Islands, the Greater Antilles, the Lesser Antilles to Trinidad, Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, Hon- duras, and Mexico. Cyprea bartschi Ingram, described from the Phocene of Costa ica near the town of Limon, shows affinity to the lower Mio- cene species, Cyprea raymondrobertsi Pilsbry, described from Santo Domingo by Pilsbry (1922), and listed by Ingram (1939a) from Santo Domingo, to Cyprea raymondrobertsi bow. enensis Pilsbry from,.the Miocene of Bowden, Jamaica (Pilsbry, 1922 (Ingram, 1939a). and to Cyprea spurcoi’es Gabb from the Mio- eerie of Santo Domingo (Gabb, 1873),. (Maury, 1917), (Pilsbry, 1922), (Ingram, 1939a). These species and subspecies show relationship to Cyprea spurca Linnecus in general. shell shape, type of anterior canal. and teeth. Cyprea spurca Linneus has a current distribution embracing most of the Caribbean from Pahia, Brazil, to the Virgin !slands, to Santo Domineo and Haiti, Cuba, Bahamas, Florida, and Vera Cruz, Mexico. This species is reported from the Miocene of Santo Domingo’ by Maury (1917,.1921), from the Miocene of Costa Rica by Olsson (1922), Schilder (19392) lists a Erosaria (Ravitrona) spirea acicitlaris (amelin from the Pleistocene (7) of Parbados. In turn these species seem to be related to the living, widely dis- tributed Indo-Pacific species, Cyprea helvola Linneus, report- ed from the Pleistocene cf the Hawaiian Islands by Ostervaard (1928), and from the Tonga Islands by Ostervaard (1935). Ladd (1934) in his comprehensive paper on the geology of Vitilevu, 57 Wrst AMERICAN CyPpRaipa: INGRAM L5 Fiji, described a Cyprea agassizgi trom the Miocene of Vitilevu. He likened Cyprea aygassizi to Cyprea staphylea Linneus (=Nuclearia staphylea (Linneus) ) to which it seems to bear little resemblance. His excellent dorsal and ventral view illus- trations show his Cyprea agassizi to be close to the Cyprea helvola of Linnzeus. The two Eocene Gisortia, described from South America, are not related. Gisortia colombiana Clark from Colombia is an ex- tremely small member of this genus, having a length of only 25.5 mm. Gistoria thomasi Olsson, a large species with a length of 118 mm., is from the Pale Greda formation, Cabo Blanco, Peru. Neither one of these species appears to be related to the North American Eocene species, Gisortia clarki Ingram. LIVING CYPRAIDA OF THE WESTERN REGIONS’ OF THE AMERICAS Of the 21 species and subspecies of living Cypreeidee occuring in the western regions of the Americas, 13 have a fossil record in the Western Hemisphere. The living species range as far north as Monterey Bay, California, (Cyprea spadicea Swainson) and southward into Peru (Cyprea arabicula Lamarck, Cyprea annette Dall, Cyvprea cervinetta Wiener, Cyprea nigropunctata Gray and Cyprea roberts: Hidalgo). This is a small Cypreide fauna for an area encompassing so: great a coast line. The general lack of coral reefs possibly ac- counts for the relatively few species, for evidence indicates that the development of numerous Recent species of Cypreeidze goes ~ hand in hand with extensive coral reef growth, for areas with good reef development and with far less coast line have great- er cowry faunas. There has been but a slight influx of Polynesian and Indo- Pacific species into the Cypreide fauna of the west coast of the Americas. The typical frontiers for the Polynesian and Indo- Pacific Cypreide are: the Galapagos Islands on the Equator, and approximately 600 miles west of Ecuador; Cocos Island, ap- proximately five degrees above the equator and 300 miles from the coast of Costa Rica; and Clipperton Island, about 670 miles 16 BULLETIN 120 58 southwest of Acapulco, Mexico, and approximately ten degrees north of the equator. No Polynesian or Indo-Pacific species has yet been reported from the shore waters of the American continents. Hertlein (1937) in his important paper on marine mollusks occuring in both Polynesia and the western Americas recorded the following species of Volynesian and Indo-Pacific Cypreide in West Coast waters about the following islands: Cyprea Cepressa Gray (=imtermedia Gray, gilli Jousseaune ), Cpyrea isabella Linneeus,Cyprea scurra Chemnitz, and Cyprea teres Gmelin (=tabescens Dillwyn, =punctulata Hidalgo) from Clipperton Island; Cyprea moneta Linneeus from Cocos Island, and the Galapagos Islands. Ingram (1945) recorded a specics, Cyprea rashleighana Melville, found in Hawaii, from Cocos Island. It is possible that the Hawaiian Islands, the Marquesas Is- lands, the Tuamotu Islands, and [aster Island represent. the typical western frontier zone for Cypreide faunas, common in the more central Pacific. It may be that Cyprea isabella Lin- neus, among the above species, has not migrated from the typ- ical western frontier zone but represents a relic persistin’ in the West Coast waters, for this species has been reported from the Miocene of Santo Domingo by Pilsbry (1922), Gabb (1873). Maury (1917), Ingram (1939a), from the Miocene of Vene- zuela by Schilder (1939a), from the Miocene of Bowden, Ja- maica, by Woodring (1922), and from the Miocene of Trini- dad by Schilder (19309a). Ladd (1934), described a Cyprea isabella lekalekana from the Miocene of Vitilevu, Fiji. Thus two Miocene occurrences of Cyprea isabella are presente | from areas several thousands of miles apart. Ostergaard (1935) re- ports Cyprea isabella Linneus from the Pleistocene of Tonga- tabu, Tonga Islands. Cyprea isabella mexicana Stearns, an inhabitant of the waters in the Gulf of California, successfully moved to an outer fron- tier Clipperton Island and the Galapagos Islands, whereas the species listed above have not been able to surmount unknown conditions to become reversely established on the continents proper of the Americas, The Clipperton and Galapagos Island records of Cyprea isabella mexicana Stearns represent the east- 59 West AMERICAN Cypramipa: INGRAM 17 ernmost outpost of this subspecies; it is replaced by the typi- cal C. isabella Linneus in the Tuamotus, Marquesas, and Ha- wauan Islands. Cyprea cervinetta Wiener, from Lower California, Panama, Ecuador, Peru, and Galapagos Islands, is related to species, both living and extinct, on the Atlantic side of Central America. The living species are Cyprea cervus Linneeus and Cyprea zebra Linneus, both with a wide distribution in the Caribbean.t A Miocene species, Cyprea trinitatensis Mansfield from Trinidad, (Mansfield, 1925), and Venezuela, (Schilder, 1939a), seems to be closely related to these living species, and very likely repre- sents the ancestral type. It differs most notably from the living species in having a very prominent spire in the adult state. One can then conclude that the West Coast species, Cyprea cervin- etta Kiener, was isolated from its living relatives in the Carib- bean by the closure of the seaway in Central America in the Miocene, and that through many thousands of years the three living species have become differentiated from their Miocene ancestor. Three species included here are confined generally to the Caribbean area; these are, Cyprea spurca Linnzus, Cyprea mus Linneus, and Cyprea cinerea Gmelin. The former species has been reported from the Miocene of Santo Domingo by Maury (1917) and from the Miocene of Costa Rica by Olsson (1922) ; the latter species has a Miocene occurrence in Costa Rica (Olsson, 1922), and in Santo Domingo (Pilsbry, 1922). The writer has been unable to find data to indicate that Cyprea mus Linnzus is found as a fossil. + See specific list for complete distributional records of the species dis- cussed.

In collections Cyprea albuyinosa Gray has sometimes been confused with Cyprea poraria Linneus. The only similarity be- tween these species is the color pattern. In all other character- istics they are quite distinct. C. poraria Linnzus is not found along the west coast of the Americas nor on the neighboring islands. Schilder and Schilder (1939) list two forms of C. albuginosa Gray from the West Coast, a Cyprea albuginosa albuginosa Gray from northwest Mexico, Revilla Gigedo, Mazatlan to Tres Mar- ias and Cyprea albuginosa marieformis Schilder from the Gala- pagos to Ecuador, The writer has examined long series of freshly collected specimens from the above areas and has not been able to find any characteristics which would indicate that C. albuginosa Gray, s. s., can be divided into subspecies.

The similarities between the two species are not evident until individuals of approximately the same size are compared. The posterior canal is quite simi- lar as is the anterior one, The outer lip at the anterior canal in each is declivous, and the terminal ridge of both is similar. The outer lip teeth resemble each other; the similarity, however, is not at once noticeable because of the lack of color contrast of the teeth of C. spacicea Swainson. The several differences are the color pattern, the heavier shell, the more eloneate columellar side of the anterior canal, the poorly concealed spire, and the more numerous and _ heavier columellar teeth characteristics of C. spadicea Swainson. An examination of long series of individuals of C. annette Dall from Lower California and the Mexican proper side of the Gulf of California has revealed no startling variations that would lead one to think that subspecies existed in this area. Al- though this species has been reported as far south as the Pe- ruvian coast, the writer has not seen specimens that were col- lected far from the confines of the Gulf of California. One possi- bly mislabeled record examined by the writer was from [Ecua- dor and was similar in all respects to specimens found further north, Based on reliable material in the several great collections in North America Cyprea annette Dall is most commonly found in the Gulf of California and on the Pacific side of Low- er California.

Cyprea arabicula Lamarck has been placed in the subgenus Pseudozonaria by Schilder (1939) with Cyprea robertsi Hidal- go (=punctulata Gray) and Cyprea nigropunctata Gray®. To the writer C. arabicula Lamarck seems only to resemble super- ficially C. robertsi Hidatgo in color and in shell shape. Cyprea arabicula Lamarck has the canals more narrowed, has a more prominent fossula, and the teeth are always more numerous, finer, and the incisures are deeper than in C. robertsi Hidalgo. Too, in C. arabicula Lamarck the anterior canals are flanged and are not beaked, and a definite ridge, not present in C. robert- st Hidalgo, is present at the lateral terminations of the base. In C. arabicula Lamarck the terminal ridge is formed at the tip of the columellar side of the anterior canal, while that in C. yobertsi Hidalgo forms back from the tip of the columellar side of the anterior canal, * See discussion of C. nigropunctala Gray. 24 BULLETIN 120 66 Cyprea arabicula Lamarck does not seem to be closely re- lated to any species, living or fossil, in the Western Hemi- sphere.

This present day Indo-Pacific species was reported by Gabb (1881) from the Phocene clay beds between Limon and Moen, Costa Rica. The nearest approach of living representatives to the west coast of the Americas is the Hawaiian and Tuamotu Archipelagos. This record has been discredited by certain in- iw) OT 67 West AMERICAN CYPRHID=: INGRAM vestigators. The only species, living or fossil, that Gabb (1881) might have confused it with is Cyprea cinerea Gmelin, Gabb (1881), possibly foreseeing doubt of this record, wrote an ex- acting paragraph indicating that his specimens were truly those belonging to the species C. carneola Linneeus as the followiny quotation will indicate, “My friend Mr. Roberts, who has prob- ably paid more attention to this genus than anybody else in Phil- adelphia, kindly assisted me in identifying these Cypreas | ref- erence is to C. carneola|. Despite the absence of color, the most important specific character here, I am satisfied that the ceter- minations are correct. Now living in the Pacific. Abundant also ” in the deep railroad cutting so often mentioned.” The writer therefore chooses to recognize this record, trusting that further careful exploration of Gabb’s (1881) collecting ground will prove him right or wrong in his identifiction. In making the above identification Gabb (1881) consulted the North Ameri- can authority on the Cypreide at that time, Mr. Roberts, who published the section on this family in Tryon (1885).

Cyprea cervinetta Wiener is found exclusively in the living state on the Pacific side of Central America; no authentic rec-. ords of this species are available from the Atlantic side of the Central American land area. It may be likewise said that Cyprea zebra Linneus (—Cyprea exanthema Linneus) does not occur on the Pacific side of Central America but is confined in its distribution to the Atlantic side. Several writers, Wimmer (1880), Stearns (1891), Dall (1910), and Olsson (1924), have misidentified specimens of Cyprea cervinetta Kiener from the Pacific as Cyprea exanthema Linneus (=Cyprea zebra Lin- nzeus ) .7° There has been quite a difference of opinion concerning the relationship of Cyprea cervinetta Kiener, Cyprea cervus Lin- neus, and Cyprea zebra Linneus (=Cyprea exanthema Lin- neus). Presbrey (1913) seems to the writer to have adequate- ly separated the above three species from each other and to have given a fairly correct distribution of each. Presbrey (1913) lists the following distribution data concerning the above three cow- ries, “C. exanthema is found on both sides of the Gulf Stream which is a thousand feet deep between Florida and the Bahamas, with a current of five or more miles an hour, Bahama, Jamaica, and Colon specimens are coarser in texture, the spots are less frequent, form less regular and the color much paler. The true exanthema is not found on the Florida west coast. Cyprea cervus is not found on the west coast of America. It is not found at Panama. The writer has yet to find a specimen below Key West. Its natural habitat is west coast of Florida. Cer- vinetta, apparently, belongs exclusively to Panama Province.” Recent distribution—United States National Museum: Mar- garita Bay, La Paz, and Cape San Lucas, Lower California; Guaymas, Mazatlan, and Mendia (Sinaloa), Mexico; Panama; Manta, Ecu2dor; Payta (Paita), Peru.

Woodring (1928) refers to this species with the following comments : It is remarkable that it is so similar to ©. isabella mexicana Stearns, living on the Pacifie Coast of Mexico, and to C. i, isabelia from the west- ern Pacific, and that no similar species is now living in the West Indies. According to Pilsbry the similarity is so close that the fossils should take the name of the living species. Even a large topotype from the Gurabo formation [Dominican Republic], which has a length of $2.3 millimeteres, is considerably smaller than meaicana, which reaches a length of 48 milli- meters. The small Bowden specimen [ Bowden, Jamaica] is broader than the small specimens of mexicana. Though these differences may not be significant, 1t seems desirable to cousider the fossils as a subspecies of the isabella group. In reducing Cyprea patrespatric Maury to synonomy with Cyprea isabella Linneus, Pilsbry (1922) states, “Two specimens, which present no characters differing from the recent shells.

Cyprea spadicea Swainson seems to the writer to be related to Cyprea annette Dall.” Cyprea annette Dall, typically a more southern species than Cyprea spadicea Swainson, extends northward in its distribution to Santa Rosalio (Rosalia) Creek at Santa Rosalia Bay, Lower California, while its typically more northern relative, Cyprea spadicea Swainson, is found as far south as San Roque, Lower California, an overlap of approxim- ately 125 miles. In the fossil state the southernmost record of C. spadicea Swainson is in the Pleistocene of Magdalena Bay, Lower California, approximately 275 miles farther south than the southernmost living record. No fossil records have as vet been published for C. annette Dall along the west coast of Lower California. 15 See discussion of C, annette Dall, 79 Wrst AMERICAN CyprRa&IpD%: INGRAM 4 Personal collecting and collections indicate that Cyprea spa- dicea is found in greatest abundance at San Diego, Laguna Beach, and San Pedro, California. The normal northern range of this species appears to be Santa Barbara. One authentic, living rec- ord of this species indicates that it extends as far north as China- town Point, Monterey Bay, California. It is possible that this northern record was that of a stray from a more southern dis- tributional zone, for the Monterey Bay area has been collected thoroughly for vears by the students of the Hopkins Marine Sta- tion without revealing additional living specimens.

This species although typically occurring away from the west- ern area of the Americas is included here because of its occur- rence in the Miocene of Costa Rica (Olsson, 1922). Cyprea bartschi Ingram from the Pliocene of Costa Rica is possibly an extinct relative of C. spurca Linneeus.

Hubbard (1920) lists this species (7) from the upper Oligocene of Porto Rico. Cyprea spurca Linneus completely circles the Caribbean Sea, extending from Florida to Vera Cruz and Yucatan, Mexico to the Swan Islands off the coast of Honduras to Venezuela to Brazil to the Virgin Islands to the Dominican Republic and Haiti to Jamaica to Cuba, and through the Bahama Islands to the Carolina Coast (7) of North America, Recent distribution (Western Hemisphere).—United States National Museum: Vera Cruz, Cape Catoche, Yucatan, Mexico; Swan Islands off coast of Honduras; Vignon Curacao Island off Venezuela; Bahia de Todos los Santos, southeast of Cape Roque, 3razil; Varadero Beach, Havana, Cape San Antonio, Guantan- amo Lay, Ensenada de Cochinos, Aquadora near Santiago, Cuba; Kingston, Montego Bay, Robins Bay, St. Mary, Annotta Pay, Bull Bay, St. Andrew, Jamaica; Les Trois, Haiti; Agua- dilla, Porto Rico; Cockburntown, San Salvador, Long Bay Key, District Andros, North Bimini Islands, Nassau, Bahama Islands; 81 West AMERICAN CyPR&IDH: INGRAM 39 Carolina Coast, Carolinas (°?); off Paynes Bay Church, Bar- bados; St. Croix, St. Thomas, Santa Cruz, Virgin Islands; east by north of Long Reef, Miami, Sand Key Reef, Dry Tortugas, Lorie Key Reef, Sambo Reef, Cedar Keys, Key West, Matacum- ba Key, between Tampa and Dry Tortugas, Jupiter Inlet, Florida.

This species has been placed in a family lmphiperatide, in a genus Cypropterina, and in a subgenus /enneria Jousseaume by Schilder (1932), thus removing it from the family Cypreide. The writer believes that this species should still be included in the Cypraéide and tentatively refers to it here as Pustularia (?) pustulata (Solander), a name long familiar to conchologists. “Genus searching” at a later date will correctly refer it to its proper genus. Schilder (1932) has used the genus Pustularia Swainson to refer to such species as Cyprea tessellata Swain- son, Cyprea marie Schilder (=annulata Gray), and to Cyprea cicercula Linnzeus, with the later species as type.

Shell large, solid, with a narrow, closely denticulate aperture and a somewhat flattened base. The aperture is practically straight anteriorly, and is curved posteriorly. The inner hip is distinctly shorter than the outer lip at the posterior canal, and the outer lip is produced dorsally, heightening the contrast between the two sides of the canal as viewed dorsally. The outer lp bears about 19 teeth, of which the posterior 3 or + may be produced as slight corrugations on the basal surface of the outer lip. The teeth on the inner lip are strong anteriorly, obsolete pos- teriorly. The dorsal surface is somewhat irregular; a pronounced cen- tral hump marks the point of greatest convexity; before it the surface is evenly convex, and behind it a depressed area slopes off to the aborted inner lip at the posterior canal; on the other side of the canal the outer lip rises prominently.

This somewhat irregular strong Cyprea is similar in many ways to C. wilcoxit Dall from the Chipola beds of Florida. It differs, however, in being fuller in width and height, and in its peculiar shorter inner lip, C. henekeni Sowerby, from Santo Domingo and Gatun, is somewhat similar, but differs in the tuberculate back apparently peculiar to that species, as well as in its distinctly wider, more irregular aperture. C. henekeni does not have the inner lip shortened posteriorly. Only one specimen of this species occurs in the collection. It is suffi- ciently distinet to permit its description as a new species; however, the depressed dorsal area before the posterior canal notch may require veri- fication through study of more material, since it is possible that the shell may have been deformed. Close examination of the specimen shows this feature to be a possible natural development, reasonably correlatable with the slight dorsal posterior depression caused by the appression of the posterior inner lip, and it is accordingly noted in the description as a likely natural character of the shell.—[Spieker, 1922.] 44 BuLuetin 120 ‘ 56 Cyprea angustirima hyaena (Schilder) Siphocypraca angustirima hyaena Schilder, 1999, Abhand. der Schweizer.

Pilsbry (1922) of Santo Domingo. It differs from it in having the columellar lip of the posterior conal more produced ; also the columellar teeth in bartschi extend as raised ridges over the col- umellar lip projeetion of the posterior canal. The anterior exnal in ray- mondrobertsi is straighter and in bartschi it is curved to the left. The teeth in the former species do not extend over the lips of the anterior canal 2s they do in the latter species. The anterior canal lips are straight in the dorso-ventral «direetion in Pilsbry’s species winle they are more engled in bartschi. The aperture is narrower, and the base is more angled in bartschi.—[Ingram, 1959.] Cyprea spurca Linneus, reported from the Miocene of Costa Rica by Olsson (1922) and found living in the Caribbean Sea, Florida, Brazil, Portugal, Morocco, Mediterranean Sea, and Adriatic Sea, is related to the extinet C. bartschi Ingram and C. raymondrobertsi.

Holotype.—-Numbered 11690 in the University of California Invertebrate Paleontology Collection, Berkeley, California. Type locality—Grapevine Creek, Tejon, California; Univer- sity of California locality 452. Upper Eocene. The specimen figured here [Stewart, 1926] is the one deseribed and fig- ured by Gabb in 1869. It has been crushed. The teeth are small and numerous, Height 30 mm.; width 18 mm.; dorsoventral diameter 13.5 mm. Horizon, Eocene; locality (Tején group at Martinez). This specimen is probably from the so-called Tejon. The holotype is much smaller but otherwise seems to be identical with it. A specimen, apparently from Tejon, with the figured specimen, is probably C. mathew- sonii.—|[ Stewart, 1926.] Vokes (1930), realizing that Stewart’s (1926) description was rather brief, described Cyprea castacensis more completely. “Stewart’s description (‘This species differs from C. bayerquer Gabb in having a more attenuated posterior’) is unsatisfactory, and the opportunity is here taken to give a more complete diag- nosis :” Shell of medium size, smooth, tiin, subpyriform, posteriorly globose, the apex involute, concealed’ by the posterior termination of the outer lip which is so bent as to be almost perpendicular to the axis of the shell; aperture narrow, notched at each end, strongly curved posteriorly, and to a less extent anteriorly; outer lip thickened, crenulate internally with 23 to 25 small teeth; columellar lip with about 26 crenulations, diverging from the base of the penultimate whorl, terminated by an oblique ridge which encloses a well-developed fossuia. Immature specimens show a_ pro- nounced posterior terminal thickening of the columellar lip to form a projection paralleling the twisted posterior termination of the outer lip.— [ Vokes, 1939.] Cyprea cayapa Pilsbry and Olsson Cyprea cayapa Pilsbry and Olsson, 1941, Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia, Proe., vol. XCIII, pp. 41-42, pl. 7, fig. 4. The shell is large, solid, semiglobose with the spire completely concealed. The back or. dorsal side is strongly convex, broadly but indistinetly humped in the middle of the back; on the posterior slope with 2 low but wide tubercles. The base is somewhat flattened. Aperture narrow, the outer and inner lips bearing coarse, plait-like tecth. Anterior end not known. Faint, brown radial lines extend across the sides of the shell, fading out toward the top. Length 62 mm. (imperfeet), width 61.5 mm., height 42.5 mm.—[Pilsbry and Olsson, 1941.] Holotype-—Numbered 13065 in the collections of the Acad- 45 BULLETIN 120 90 emy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Type locality.—Jama formation, Puerto Jama, Icuador. Plio- cene. This Cyprwa is represented by one specimen which is imperfect, having lost the anterior end, and the aperture is partly filled with matrix which cannot be removed. Before being entombed in the sediments, the shell had been eaten into by boring organisms and partly encrusted with a growth of bryozoa so that it is possibly a shell derived from an older fossiliferous series. When complete, the shell probably had a length of about 85 mm. Cyprea cayapa belongs to the group of C. henekeni Sowerby, of the Santo Domingo and Panama Miocene. ; me ' ¥ , PLS ¢ f a t » fs ’ @ ay 1 p : Ris , at au a7 one mk i i ' i : 7 Th , x l ; on , : re ; ' F it iy & ; Chri uy + PLATE 2 ( 6 ) SU BuLLetTin 120 IXPLANATION OF PLATE 2 (6) Figure 1.

VENEZUELA AND COLOMBIA* By WILLIAM Marcus INGRAM Mills College, California One new genus and four new species of Cypreeidee are herein described from the Miocene of Venezuela and one new species from the Miocene of Colombia. The specimens upon which the species are based are a part of the Standard Oil collection housed in the Museum of Paleontology of the University of California, Berkeley, California, The writer wishes to express his apprecia- tion for the cooperation given him by the late Dr. Bruce L. Clark who lent the material to the writer for description. Acknowlede- ment is due Dr, Herdis Pentson of the Standard O11 Company for supplying locality data. Genus MARGINOCYPRZEA, new genus This generic name is applied to an extinct species of Cypreeidee which has no columellar lip bounding the columellar side of the posterior canal. A well-defined unilateral groove around the right shell margin is prominent. The terminal ridge extends on to the lateral surface of the anterior columellar lip canal and is plainly discernible in lateral view. These characteristics com- bine to mark a distinct genus. Long experience in working with the Cypreeidee indicate that these characteristics are mature ones representative of fully adult individuals. The genotype is desig- nated Marginocyprea paraguana. Margincceyprea paraguana, new species Plate 1, figs. 1, 2 Shell oval-elongate ;-stron’ unilateral groove runs over dorsum of right posterior canal lip, along right side of shell to terminate above anterior canal; cuter lip teeth extend over entire base on anterior one-fourth of shell, an] extend over approximately one- half of base for the remaince> of the outer lip; fossula absent ; outer lip teeth flattened, 1.70 to 1 mm, broad at outer margin of base, and beceming sharp and only a fraction of a millimeter broad as they curve over the outer lip into the aperture; inter- *This work was supported by a grant-in-aid from the Sigma Xi Re- search Fund, 4 BULLETIN 121 128 stices of outer lip teeth about one millimeter; outer lip teeth are raised over base, giving it a decided corrugated appearance ; col- umellar teeth are confined to the aperture except for the anterior- most three which extend from 4 to 1 mm. over base; anterior four columellar teeth extend into aperture of columella and pro- trude free from columella into shell from 1 to 2 mm., the most anterior of the four is 14 mm. in length; remaining columella teeth are from 6 to 7 mm, long; columellar. teeth start as nodules on the columellar lip, extend as raised ridges into the aperture, and end as small nodules within the aperture; interstices vary from 1 to 1.50 mm. in width; anterior canal 7 mm. broad in front, narrowing to 3 mm. behind; anterior canal 9 mm. long; poster- ior canal 6 mm. broad by 5 mm. long; anterior canal slightly curved to the left; aperture 6 mm, wide anteriorly, 4 mm. wide posteriorly. Dimensions.—Length, 58 mm. ; width, 39 mm. ; height, 30 mm. Holotype-—Housed in the University of California Museum of Paleontology, Berkeley, California. Type locality.—Approximately 300 meters south of Casa Can- taure which is about 10 kilometers west of Pueblo Nueve near San Jose, Paraguana Peninsula, Venezuela. University of Cali- fornia locality Number S-8360. Upper Miocene undifferentiated. Collected by S. B. Henry and J. P. Bailey. Discussion.—The preservation in the holotype is excellent. An indication of the original coloring is preserved; the base and sides were apparently white or creamy, and the dorsum a uni- form grey-flesh color. The metatype is fragmentary with the an- terior columellar tooth region missing. The measurements of the metatype are: length, 79 mm.; breadth, 50 mm.; height, 35 mm. Thus there is a considerable size variation in this species. Cyprza fossula, new species Plate ‘1, fig. 3 One of the most notable characteristics of this species is the huge fossula on the anterior columellar side of the aperture, This fossula is depressed approximately 7 mm. from the base of the columella lip and is strongly toothed; its length is 10 mm., and its maximum breadth of 3 mm, is attained just behind the anter- ior canal; anterior canal is turned toward the left, breadth about 129 VENEZUELAN FOSSIL CyPpRm=IDa®: INGRAM 5 4mm., and length 4 mm.; posterior canal vertical, neither turned toward the right or left, 2.50 mm. broad, 7 mm. long; anterior and posterior canal lips but little produced; spire obscured by a heavy callus, but nevertheless its outline is still visible; shell base flat, neither lip being rounded; teeth of columella lip most prominent on the anterior one-fourth of the shell; columellar teeth evenly spaced one millimeter apart over the length of the columellar lip, and with the exception of the first nodulelike four they are linelike; outer lip teeth linelike, evenly distributed over the length of the lip about one millimeter apart; teeth of both lips are confined to the aperture margins; aperture widest, 9 mm. anteriorly and narrowest posteriorly, 3 mm. over the ex- panded columella. Dimensions.—Length, 43 mm.; breadth, 36 mm.; height, 21 mm. Holotype.—Housed in the Museum of Paleontology, Univer- sity of California, Berkeley, California. Type locality—Approximately 300 meters south of Casa Can- taure which is about 10 kilometers west of Pueblo Nueve near San Jose, Paraguana Peninsula, Venezuela. University of Cali- fornia Number S-8360. Upper Miocene, undifferentiated. Col- lected by S. B. Henry and J. P. Bailey. Discussion.—In outline the shell is similar to the Indo-Pacific species, Cyprea carneola Linneus. This species is based on the holotype which is well preserved, The aperture is free of matrix thus revealing the interior and the teeth. The anterior canal lips are but slightly fractured, and there is a hole in the shell in the posterior area on the left side. Cyprza projecta, new species Plate 1, figs. 4, 5 Anterior canal very strongly tilted to the left, 5 mm. broad, 13 mm. long; anterior canal is bordered by earlike flanges, only the left one being present on the holotype; earlike left flange is 10 mm. broad by 15 mm. long; maximum width of aperture, 9 mm, is reached just behind posterior canal; uniformly spaced teeth extend along both columellar and outer lips; teeth are con- fined to lip borders and are nodulelike; posterior canal deeply notched and turned to the left, notch is 7 mm. deep, and extends about 22 mm. upwerd from the shell base; posterior canal 4 mm. wide at base and 6 mm. wide at maximum width above base on 6 BULLETIN 121 130 posterior acea of shell. Dimensions.—Length, 63.50 mm.; breadth, 43.75 mm.; height, ,3 mm, Holotype.—Housed in the Museum of Paleontology, Univer- sity of California, Berkeley, California. Type locality—Town of Tubera, Dept. Atlantico, Colombia. University of California locality Number S-8008. Upper middle Miocene. Collected by J. D. Wheeler and M. Steineke. Discussion.—The single specimen is well preserved except where the earlike flange has been broken away on the outer lip side of the anterior canal. The aperture is filled with a tough matrix thus obscuring the full interior. This species appears to be related to the largely Miocene “Cyprea henikeri group” of Cypreide, consisting of Cyprea henikeri Sowerby from the Mio- cene of Santo Domingo, Costa Rica, and Panama, (Ingram, 1939, 1942); Cyprea henikeri potreronis Ingram and Cyprea noulei Maury from the Miocene of Santo Domingo, (Maury, 1917), (Ingram, 1939) ; Cyvprea merriami Ingram from the Mio- cene of Panama, (Ingram, 1939); and Cyprea henikert aman- dust Hertlein and Jordan from the Miocene of Lower California, (Hertlein and Jordan, 1927). The “possibly Pliocene’”’ species, Cyprea cayapa Pilsbry and Olsson from Ecuador, (Pilsbry and Olsson, 1941) and the living species, Cyprea mus Linneeus, found in the waters about Venezuela and Colombia are likewise related to this new species. The earlike flange at the anterior canal readily separates this species from others which have been described to date. Cyprza grahami, new species Plate 2, figs. 6, 7 Anterior canal circular in outline when viewed from the front, slightly turned toward the left, 5 mm. broad at anterior front of shell; canal bordered by a flat flange 13 mm. broad by 13 mm. long on the outer lip; columellar flange destroyed ; posterior canal incised 8 mm., canal notch extends up from base approximately 28 mm., canal 5 mm. broad; aperture widest anteriorly, 11 mm., narrowest, 8 mm., just behind posterior canal; columellar teeth poorly developed, 14 in number, confined to the lip margin, the 131 VENEZUELAN Fossin CyPR&IDa: INGRAM 7 anterior 6 being prominent; all are linelike raised ridges; outer lip teeth 19 and more prominent than those on columellar lip; those along anterior one-half of shell being prominent and cury- ine upward into the interior of the shell, while those on posterior one-half are barely discernible; two very large nodules are pres- ent on the posterior one-fourth of the dorsum; the lateral mar- eins of the shell are roughened slightly by broad dorso-ventrally running ridges, Dimensions.—Length, 80 mm.; breadth, 55.25 mm.; height, 41 mm. Holotype.—Housed in the Museum of Paleontology, Univer- sity of California, Berkeley, California. Type locality. About 400 meters south of 15 degrees west of house at Las Calderas, Island of Cubagua, Nueva Isperata, ele- vation I2 meters, Venezuela. University of California locality Number S-122. Upper Miocene. Collected by P. Andrews, C. T. Newcomb, and L. W. Henry. Discussion.—The shell is well preserved. The columellar flange of the anterior canal is missing. A piece 1s missing from the nodule on the left side of the dorsum. This species is a member of the “Cyprea henikeri group.” This species is named for Dr. Herbert W. Graham of the De- partment of Zoology at Mills College who has often aided the writer in his work on fossil Cypreeide. Cyprza rugosa, new species Plate 2, figs. 8, 9 The posterior surface and the sides of the shell are marked by numerous very slightly raised ridges; there is one nodule on the right side of the dorsum about midway back from the anterior end. (This probably represents an individual variation, and spe- cimens will no doubt be found with two nodules) ; excellent shell preservation indicates that a second nodule was never present in the holotype; anterior canal very sharply turned to the left, 4 mm. broad by 13 mm. long; canal bounded by two flanges, that on the right fragmented; left flange 13 mm. broad by 13 mm. long; right flange r2 mm. broad; posterior canal deeply notched, 8 BULLETIN 121 132 13 mm. long by 17 mm. broad; posterior canal lips inequal, that on the left being heavier and noticeably more produced; aper- ture widest, 8 mm., at anterior end, narrowest, 6 mm., just be- hind posterior canal; teeth on columellar lip of a fairly uniform size and in the form of prominent raised linelike ridges; these teeth form a band along the columellar lip of the aperture, the hand increasing in width from the anterior to posterior ends of the aperture; columellar teeth number 19, the shortest tooth 4mm. in length, being placed just behind the anterior canal, and the longest 8 mm, in length, being placed midway on the colum- ella; outer lip teeth prominent and incurved into interior of shell, 24 in number; they are linelike in the form of raised ridges. Dimensions.—Length, 72.50 mm.; breadth, 58 mm.; height, 40 mm. ; Holotype.—Housed in the Museum of Paleontology, Univer- sity of California, Berkeley, California, Type locality—About 400 meters south of 15 degrees west of house at Las Calderas, Island of Cubagua, Nueva Esperata, ele- vation 12 meters, Venezuela. University of California locality Number S-122. Upper Miocene. Collected by P. Andrews, C. T. Newcomb, and L. W. Henry. Discussion—The holotype is one of the “Cyprea henikeri group.” BIBLIOGRAP ED.

LIST OF THE CYPRAIDA OCCURRING. IN THE WESTERN. HEMISPHERE By WILLIAM Marcus INGRAM Mills College, California INTRODUCTION Included herein is a list of fossil and living Cypreide from the Western Hemisphere: This work» supplements Schilder’s (1932) most useful paper with additions, Certain species which have been described from easts are included here in a doubtful group. The great majority of these do not show shell characteristics which would readily enable one working with the Cypreide to separate one species from another or even to separate genera. The work in which each species was described is included in the bibliography, with other references which seem important, in the case of species found only as fossils. In dealing with liv- ing species the reader is referred to at least one important refer- ence dealing with the species in the Western Hemisphere. The geologic age of each species is recorded with the general area in which it is found. The family is represented in the Western Hemisphere by eight well-defined venera, namely Cyprea, Gisortia, Cypredia, Nu- clearia, Pustularia, Siphocyprea, Sulcocyprea, and Margino- CVprea. One hundred and sixteen species are here listed as belonging to the Cypreide in the Western Hemisphere., Certain species that have been described as Cypraidee, on examination have not proven to belong to this family of mollusks and are therefore not mentioned here. Eleven species, being casts, are placed in a doubtful group. Of the 116 species and = subspecies, 101 species and subspecies are assigned to the genus Cypre@a, seven species to the Cypredia, three species to the Gisortia, and one species each to the genera Sulcocyprea, Siphocyprea, Nuclearia, Pustularia, and Marginocyprea. 6 BULLETIN 122 ; ® 142 On having to use questionable age references occasionally, the 116 species and subspecies of Cypreide have the possible following distribution: Cretaceous, two occurrences; Paleocene (?) of Schilder (1939), three occurrences; Eocene, 31 occur- rences; Oligocene, 8 occurrences; Miocene, 48 occurrences; Pliocene, 14 occurrences; Pleistocene, 10 occurrences; Recent, 22 occurrences. If the age is marked Oligocene (7?) Miocene under a species, it is listed in each period in the above age dis- tribution.

As these specimens appear typical in every respect only one median and one transverse section was made. A description of these sections follows: The median plane of a specimen with a height of 2.86 mm. and a width of 2.5 mm. shows 2% coils with 21 chambers in the final volution. The initial chamber is subcircular with diam- eters of 300 x 240 p and the second chamber has diameters of 300 x 260 p. The distance across both chambers is 420 p. The chamber walls are nearly straight and radial. The transverse section of a specimen with a height of 2.3 mm. and a thickness of 1.08 mm. shows well-developed pillars on each side of the embryonic chambers. These pillars are fused to make bosses on the surface of the test. The individual pillars have surface diameters of 100 to 200 pp. The surface diameter of the group of pillar ends which form the bosses is 0.56 mm. on one side of the test and 0.4 mm. on the other. Localities.—1266 ; 720, Remarks.—This species was described from specimens collect- ed at Cap Haitien, Haiti, and has been reported since from Trinidad and Barbados.

This species is represented in the present collection by one specimen only. This specimen was ground on one side to show the median plane. A description follows: Test of medium size with a height of 4.6 mm. and a width of 4.2 mm., thickness approximately 1.6 mm. Surface ornamentation consists of a group of closely spaced papillae in the central area of the test beyond which there are radiating raised ridges of clear shell 197 CuBAN DISCOCYCLINID™: COLE AND BERMUDEZ 9 material to the periphery of the test. The papillate area has a diameter of approximately 1.8 mm. and the individual papillz have diameters of about 140 p. The median plane is composed of 3! coils with 31 chambers in the final volution. The chamber walls are straight and radial until near their distal ends where they are slightly recurved. The specimen is a megalospheric form. rhe type locality of this species in Trinidad is supposed to be upper Eocene, but as Vaughan’ has stated this determination must be rechecked. Locality.—1266. Family ALVEOLINELLIDA Genus BORELOIDES Cole and Bermudez, new genus Genotype.—Boreloides cubensis Cole and Bermudez, new spe- cies. Test subspherical to fusiform, planispiral, invohite, very slight increase in height in the coils; chambers divided into a single series of chamberlets by revolving partitions; basal wall thick and with low, conical projections on the outer side; embryonic apparatus bilocular; apertural face developed, but the apertures were not observed. There is a resemblance between Boreloides and Fasciolites Parkinson, 1811, in that they both possess a thickened basal layer to the chambers. The representatives of Fasciolites are much larger with small chamberlets, and the basal wall is de- void of the conical projections which appear in Boreloides.

Plate 2, figs: 1-9; Plate 7; fig: 5 Test small, subspherical to fusiform, surface ornamentation variable, in some specimens the surface is smooth, in others there is a mesh formed by small, shallow polygonal pits with low, thin intervening ridges, and in others the surface is covered by small, slightly raised pustules.

The initial cham- ber is circular to subcircular with an internal diameter of about 100 p. The second chamber has internal diameters of about 80 by 120 p. The distance across both chambers is about 200 p There are from two to three coils with 16 to 20 chambers fol- lowing the embryonic chambers. The revolving wall is thick, heavy and has on the outer side small raised areas which pro- duce the pustules on the surface of the test. The chamber walls are thin, straight, and radial. The chambers are divided into chamberlets by revolving partitions. Many specimens have a narrow apertural face, but the state of preservation was such that the exact nature of the apertures could not be ascertained. Localities. —1266 ; 720; 4.5 kilometers west of Guisa, Oriente Province. Family CYMBALOPORIDZE Genus CYMBALOPORA Hagenow, 1851 Cymbalopora cushmani Cole and Bermudez, n. sp. Plate 3, figs. 6-8; Plate 7, fig. 3 Test small, conical, with a deeply excavated umbilicus, surface smooth, unornamented, except for a mesh of intersecting sutures which are convex toward the periphery of the test. In the pres- ent specimens these can be observed only when the specimen is wet. At the apex of the test there appears to be a small rotaloid coil which is followed by the chambers being arranged annularly in a widening set of rings. The walls are coarsely perforated. A vertical section of a specimen with a basal diameter of 10 mm. and a height of 0.36 mm., shows that the test is composed of a single layer of chambers except at the apex. The dorsal walls are perforated by numerous, rather coarse pores which have diameters of about 3 p. The walls along the umbilicus and 199 CuBAN DiscocycLINiba: CoLE AND BERMUDEZ 11 between the chambers are transversed infrequently by similar pores. No projections or platelike structures were observed in- to the chambers from the walls. A transverse section near the base (figure 9, Plate 3) shows the chambers in plan have a rude rectangular shape and that they are devoid of any secondary structures. A transverse section (figure 5, Plate 3) near the apex shows two rows of chambers because of the position of the section with regard to the curva- ture of the test. As noted in the description of the vertical sec- tion, the outer wall is coarsely perforate, whereas the inner walls ave solid, or transversed by very infrequent perforations. Localities —1266 ; 720. Remarks.—TVhe details of the structure of the walls are shown by figure 3, Plate 7. It was noted that the walls surrounding the embryonic chambers of Eodictyoconus show the same type of structure. 0) Cole and Bermudez!’ in creating the genus Fodictyoconus as- sumed from the general structure of the test that these forms were related to Dictyoconus which is placed in the family Val- vulinide. Restudy of the original specimens of Eodictyoconus with cer- tain specimens from Nuevitas, Cuba, demonstrates that /odictyo- conus has the same type of wall and structure of this wall around the embryonic chambers as do the specimens referred to Cymbal- opora. The structure of the wall around the embryonic chambers of Eodictyoconus is shown by figure 2, Plate 7. Thus, Fodictyoconus should be referred to the family Cym- baloporidee. This species is named in honor of Dr. Joseph A, Cushman who has contributed largely to the knowledge of American small- er Foraminifera. Family ORBITOIDIDZ& Genus VAUGHANINA D. K.

The specimens in the samples under discussion are typical in every respect to the topotype specimens studied by Vaughan and Cole in the redescription of this species. These specimens represent reworked forms from the Creta- ceous into the Eocene, or the range of the genus and species must be extended. It should be noted that specimens do not appear broken or worn, and the state of preservation is similar to the associated specimens. Numerous specimens were pres- ent in the samples.

Numerous small specimens are assigned to this species. The following measurements were made from vertical sections: Specimen I 2 3 4 Diameter 1.06 mm. 1.7 mm. 1.14 mm. 1.5 mm. Thickness 0772 mm: 0163 mm /s.O.5 min, Yelena: Layers of lateral chambers Lt to 2 Oe 8 8 The equatorial layer is pronounced in vertical sections made from specimens of this species. The initial chamber may be em- braced partially by the second chamber (figure 10, Plate 5) or may be surrounded by the second chamber almost entirely (fig- ure 5, Plate 4). Vaughan has noted this feature in his report on the forms from Barbados. There is considerable variation in the pillars. In the illustra- . tion of the types, certain individuals have heavy pillars, whereas other specimens have small, light pillars. In the Cuban speci- mens illustrated in this article the specimen shown by figure 7, 201 CuBAN DiIscocychintpas: CoLE AND BERMUDEZ 13 Plate 5, has small, weak pillars with the lateral chambers ar- ranged in regular tiers and open. The specimens illustrated by figures 1-4, Plate 4, have in general stronger pillars and the later- al chambers are not so regularly arranged. In certain of these, two particularly strong pillars occur, one on each side of the equatorial layer (figures 3, 4, Plate ‘4). In the original and subsequent description of this species all these forms were considered to represent but one species, and * this practice is followed here. It should be indicated, however, that in sorting the Cuban speciicns into lots for sectioning the specimens represented by figures 7, 8, Plate 5, were separated irom the others. A separate description of these specimens was made which follows: Test small, lenticular, surfce covered with small polygonal pits at the corners of which occur minute papille, diameter, about 1.2 mm.; thickness, about 0.56 mm. The embryonic apparatus consists of a small, circular initial chamber with a diameter of about 50 » which is partially em- braced by a larger chamber with diameters of 40 x 90 p. The distance across both chambers is 90 p. The periembryoni-> chambers could not be seen. The radial chamber walls are complete, alternate in position in adjacent annuli ane’ have the annular stolon on the proximal side of the radial chamber walls. There is a slight increase in size of the equatori:] chambers from the center of the test to the periphery. Chambers at the center of the test have radial diameters of 10 » and tangential diameters of 20 p, those at the periphery have raJial diameters of 20 » and tangential diame- ters of 20 pw. The height of the equatorial layer is virtually con- stant, about 20 p, excluding roofs and floors. The lateral chambers are open and arranged in regular, def- inite tiers with 10 chambers to a tier on each side of the equa- torial layer. Lateral chambers near the surface and over the embryonic chambers have a length of 40 p, a height of 20 yp, and the thickness of the floors and roofs is 4 p. Minute pillars occur at the ends of the lateral chambers. These pillars are nearly cylindrical with surface diameters of 20 to 30 p. 14 BULLETIN 125 202 Inasmuch as the illustrations demonstrate the characters of the species clearly, further description is not necessary. Localities. —1266; 720. Occurrence.—This species was reported first from Soldado Rock and later from the blocks in the Joes River mudflows of Barbados. Diseocyclina (Discocyclina) mestieri Vaughan : Plate 4, figs. 6-10; Plate 3, fig. 3; possibly Plate 7, fig. 4 Discocyclina (Discocyclina) mestieri Vaughan, 1945, Geol. Soe. Amer.,” Mem. 9, pp. 37, 38, pl. 12, figs. 1-6: Test small, circular with a strongly inflated central area which slopes regularly to a narrow rim. Surface ornamentation con- sists of an apical group of strong, projecting papillae which grade outwards into smaller papillae which are nearly flush with the surface of the test. The brim is devoid of papilla. The small- est meealospheric specimen measured has a diameter of 1.84 mm. and a thickness of 0.84 mm.; the largest megalospheric 1n- dividual measured has a diameter of 2.88 mm. and a thickness of 1.86 mm, The single microspheric individual available has a diameter of 3.6 mm, anda thickness of 1.2 mm. The embryonic apparatus consists of a smaller, subcircular chamber with diameters of 160 x 220 » which is almost sur- rounded by a larger chamber with diameters of 220 x 360 p. At the point of attachment of the two chambers the wall of the inner chamber forms the outer boundary of the embryonic chambers for a distance of 100 p. The annuli of equatorial chambers are irregular in plan. The radial chamber walls in adjacent annuli alternate in position and the annular stolon is on the proximal side of the chambers. [qua- torial chambers near the center of the test are nearly square with radial diameters of about 30 » and tangential diameters of about 25 p. The equatorial chambers at the periphery are larger and rectangular with radial diameters of about 80 p» and tan- gential diameters of about 20 to 30 p. As the annuli are irregu- lar there is considerable difference in size of the equatorial cham- bers within one zone of the test. The measurements given are average ones. Measurements of three vertical sections follow: 203 YUBAN DISCOCYCLINIDA: COLE AND BERMUDEZ 15 Specimen I 2 3 Diameter 1.84 mm. 2.2 mm. 2.88 mm.

The chambers are in places arranged in rather regular tiers, elsewhere they overlap from one tier to another. Locality.— 1266. Remarks.—In the preliminary study of these specimens cer- tain features recalled D. (Discocyclina) californica Schenck". However, that species is a larger, more robust form with more lateral chambers to a tier. The Cuban specimens more nearly re- semble D. (Discocyclina) mestieri described by Vaughan from random thin sections made from blocks in the Joes River mud- flows of Barbados where it occurs in association with D. barker. A larger, more robust specimen (figure 4, Plate 7) without a rim is assigned tentatively to this species which appears to be a somewhat variable one from the specimens assigned without question. Discocyclina (Discocyclina ?), sp. Plate 7, figs. 1, 8 The genus Hexagonocyclina was created by Miss Caudrit’ 11 Seheneck, Hubert G.: Trans. San Diego Soc. Nat.

One of the characteristics of this genus was the possession of hexagonal- shaped equatorial chambers. Vaughan'* restudied D. cristensis and decided that it is generically correctly placed under Dis- cocyclina. He recommends that Heasagonocyclina be placed as a synonym of Discocyclina. Two species are known to possess such hexagonal equatorial chambers, namely, D. cristensis (Vaughan) and D. meandrica Caudri. One horizontal section in the present collection had equatorial chambers of hexagonal shape. Unfortunately this was the only specimen found. It is figured for future reference. Subgenus ASTEROCYCLINA Giimbel, 1870 Discocyclina (Asterocyclina) habanensis Cole and Bermudez, n. sip. Plate 5, figs. 1-6 Test stellate, with five or six rays. There is a small central umbo with a diameter of about 0.5mm. which 1s_ thickly studded with strong, raised papille with diameters of about 100 p. From this umbo the raised rays radiate. The rays are narrower at their juncture with the umbo and gradually widen as they approach the periphery of the test and project slightly beyond the general periphery. The rays are ornamented with small, very slightly raised papilla. The interray areas are flat and unornamented. Diameter, about 2.8 mm.; thickness at center 0.5 to 0.6 mm. The embryonic chambers are nephrolepidine type with a small, subcircular initial chamber with diameters of 40 x 55 p partially embraced by a larger chamber with diameters of 30 x 80 p. There is a ring of periembryonic chambers, the main chambers of which are two long, narrow, curved chambers whose ends meet at a line drawn through the center of the embryonic chambers at right angles to the partition between the two embryonic chambers. The other ends of these principal periembryonic chambers extend beyond the ends of the chamber wall separating the initial from the second chamber. Three smaller chambers complete the ring of periembryonic chambers. The equatorial chambers in the interray areas are small and 13° Vaughan, T. Wayland; Geol. Soc. Amer., Mem. 9, 1945, pp. 74-76. 205 CuBAN DISCOCYCLINID&: COLE AND BERMUDEZ 17 nearly square with diameters of about 20 p. The equatorial chambers in the rays are rectangular. Those near the periphery in a ray have radial diameters of about 55 » and tangential diameters of about 20 p. The equatorial layer is thin, about 5 p high and virtually constant from the center to the periphery of the test. There are about 10 lateral chambers to a tier on each side of the equatorial layer at the center of the test. The openings of these chambers are slitlike between fairly thick roofs and floors. There is a regular decrease in the number of lateral cham- bers from the center of the test toward the periphery. The inter- ray areas have about three layers of lateral chambers over the equatorial layer. Some of the lateral chambers are in regular tiers, but more commonly there is irregularity and overlap. Lat- eral chambers over the center of the test and at the outside have a length of about 60 p, a height of 5 » and are between floors and roofs 5 to 15 p thick. Heavy, wedge-shaped pillars occur in the central area, These pillars have a surface diameter of 120 to 160 p. Locality.—12066. Remarks.—This species differs from D. (Asterocyclina) bar- badensis Vaughan by possessing more appressed lateral cham- bers and stronger pillars. Genus PSEUDOPHRAGMINA H.

Paleont., vol. 10, No. 4, pp. 254-256, pl. 41, fig. 1-7, 1936). Certain specimens from the Hilliard Turpentine Company well, Nassau County, Florida, were assigned to Discocyclina (Dis- cocyclina) blanpiedi Vaughan by Cole. The assignment of these 18 BuLueTIN 125 206 specimens to this species was incorrect inasmuch as they be- long to the genus Pseudophragmina, subgenus Proporocyclina. D. blanpiedi is in the subgenus Discocyclina. Restudy of these specimens leads to the belief that they rep- resent thinner representatives of the species cedarkeysensis. A vertical section from the Hilliard Turpentine Company well from a depth of 1745-1752 feet is figured on Plate 7, figure 7, for com- parison with an isolated specimen in the Cuban collection. The Cuban specimen although more compressed than any spe- cimens observed by the senior author appears to have the same features as cedarkeysensis. Therefore, this specimen is tenta- tively assigned to this species, Pseudophragmina (Proporocyclina) cushmani (Vaughan) Plate 6, figs: 1-4; Plate 7, fig. 9 Discocyclina cushmani Vaughan, 1929, Proc. U. S. Nat. Museum, vol. 76, art. 3, pp. 11-13, pl: 3, figs. 1-4. Pseudophragmina (Proporocyclina) cushmani Vaughan, 1945, Geol. Soe. Amer., Mem. 9, pp. 94, 95, pl. 38, figs. 1-3a. Test circular in plan with a small, pronounced, sharply de- fined, circumvallate, dome-shaped umbo outside of which there is a flat, thin rim. Surface ornamentation consists of small papil- le on the umbo and rim, Only two specimens were available for measurements. One of these has a semidiameter of 2 mm., the other has a diameter of 2.7 mm. with a thickness through the center of the umbo of 0.66 mm. The umbo on this specimen has a diameter of 0.9 mm. and the thickness of the rim is 0.34 mm. The embryonic apparatus is nephrolepidine in type. The imi- tial chamber is nearly circular with a diameter of 60 p. The dis- tance across both chambers is 140 pw. In the available vertical section the embryonic chambers have a length of 200 p and a “height at the highest portion of 120 p. The annular stolons are on the distal side of the radial cham- ber walls. The radial chamber walls are in alignment and some of them are slightly wavy. Many of the radial chamber walls bifurcate nearly at their proximal ends. Near the center the: 207 CuBAN DISCOCYCLINIDA: COLE AND BERMUDEZ 19 equatorial chambers are either square with radial and tangen- tial diameters of about 20 p, or tangentially elongated with ra- dial diameters of about 20 » and tangential diameters of 30 to 40 p. At the periphery the equatorial chambers are radially elongate with radial diameters of 100 » and tangential diameters of about 20 pw. The equatorial layer is thin, with the internal height of the equatorial chambers about 5 p. There is no in- crease in height of the equatorial layer toward the periphery of the test. The lateral chambers are slitlike, appressed, between thick roofs and floors. On each side of the equatorial layer at the center of the test there are about 12 layers of lateral chambers, but in the rim portion of the test there are only five layers of lateral chambers. Between pillars the lateral chambers are in regular tiers, but elsewhere they overlap and are irregular in arrangement. The average length of a lateral chamber is 40 up. These chambers have a height of about 5 ». Roofs and floors have a thickness of about 20 p. Wedge-shaped pillars are irregularly scattered throughout the test. Those in the umbonal area have diameters from 80 to 100 p and those in the rim have diameters from 60 to 100 x. Locality.—1266. Remarks.—P. (Proporocyclina) cushmani has a very distinct- ive shape with the small, pronounced umbo surrounded by a de- pressed area and a wide, relatively thin brim. The major dif- ference between the type specimens and the Cuban forms re- ferred to this species is that in the specimens from Cuba the lateral chambers are more appressed and the roofs and floors of these chambers are slightly thicker. As there is variation in this feature there does not seem to be sufficient distinction to separ- ate the Cuban forms from the typical. Pseudophragmina (Proporocyclina) habanensis Cole and Bermudez, n. sp. Plate 6, figs. 5-8 Test evenly lenticular, thickest in the center and sloping regu- larly to the bluntly rounded periphery. Surface ornamentation consists of small, very slightly raised papillee which are scattered rather regularly over the surface of the test except for a narrow peripheral zone. The diameter of megalospheric individuals is from 1.8 mm. to 2.7 mm. and the thickness at the center is irom 20 BULLETIN 125 208 0.48 mm. to 0.88 mm. Measurement of the three vertical sections illustrated are: Plate 6, figure 5 Plate 6, figure 6 Plate 6, figure 7 ‘i hickness 0.62 mm. 0.48 mm, 0.88 mm. Diameter 2.0, mm, 2.14 mm. 2:97 °\arime The embryonic apparatus consists of a circular initial cham- ber which is partially embraced by a second, reniform chamber. A specimen with a diameter of 1.8 mm. has an initial chamber with an internal diameter of 60 » and a second chamber with internal diameters of 55 x 140 p. Another specimen with a di- ameter of 1.6 mm. has an initial chamber with an internal diam- eter of 100 » and a second chamber with internal diameters of 8o x 180 p. In vertical section the embryonic chambers have a height of 120 p and a length of 240 p in One specimen and a height of 80 » and a length of 220 p in another. ‘The equatorial chambers have wavy, radial chamber walls with the annular stolon on the distal side. The radial chamber walls are in alignment. I*quatorial chambers near the periphery have radial diameters of about 40 » and tangential diameters of 20 to 30 p. In vertical sections the equatorial layer 1s relative- ly thin, but pronounced. At the center the equatorial chambers have an internal height of about 20 p, There is a very slow and slight increase toward the periphery in the internal height of the equatorial layer. At the periphery the height is usually about 40 p, but one specimen had chambers with a height of 50 p. The laterals over the center may be from 8 to 14 in number, a specimen with a thickness of 0.48 mm. has 8 on each side of the embryonic apparatus, another with a thickness of 0.62 mm. has 11 and the third with a thickness of 0.88 mm. has 14. The opening of the lateral chambers is low, appressed near the equa- torial layer, but the opening becomes higher toward the periph- ery. Normal, peripheral lateral chambers at the center have a length of 80 to 100 p. The chambers may have an internal height of 10 to 20 p with floors and roofs of a thickness of 5-10 p. The chambers with the greatest height have the thinnest floors and roofs. The lateral chambers are in regular tiers between the pillars, but elsewhere they overlap. Pillars are irregularly present. In some specimens they ap- pear on oné side of the equatorial layer and not on the other, 209 CuBAN DISCOCYCLINIDA: COLE AND BERMUDEZ PAL The surface diameter of the pillars is from 80 to 120 uy. Locality.— 12060. Remarks.—The equatorial section of this species resembles that of P. (Proporocyclina) tobleri Vaughan and Cole.14 The chief differences are those of the vertical sections. The equa- torial layer of toblex: appears as virtually a line and the lateral chambers are more appressed with thicker roofs and floors than those of habanensis. P. tobleri does not possess pillars accord- ing to the type description, The Cuban specimens were at first referred to P. tobleri, but on detailed analysis it was decided to create a new species, not- ing, however, the similarity between typical tobleri and the forms under discussion, The type locality of tobleri was thought to be uppermost Eocene, overlying the typical Jacksonian of Soldado Rock. Re- cently, Miss Caudri’ has suggested that P. tobleri and its as- sociated species may represent a reworked fauna at Soldado Rock and that their actual occurrence is fairly low in the Eocene. 14 » Compare figure 8, Plate 6 with figure 3, plate 22, Geol.

Storrs COoLe Cornell University INTRODUCTION The precise definition of genera and species of the so-called larger Foraminifera depends upon adequate thin sections which show the internal structure. When species are described from external appearance only, endless confusion results because of the inability of other workers to recognize the forms which: have been inadequately described. Moreover, certain of the smaller Foraminifera which have been described traditionally from external appearance only show in- triguing internal structures if they are sectioned. Thin sections of the smaller Foraminifera have been most useful in phylo- genetic studies as demonstrated recently by the work of Barker and Grimsdale (1937). In order to ascertain the precise nature of the internal struc- ture of certain species described recently (Applin and Jordon, 1945) from subsurface samples from wells in Florida, the writer made a number of thin sections of these species. The results of this study were so profitable in understanding the relationships of these species as well as defining them in a precise manner that it was decided to record this information. DESCRIPTION OF GENERA AND SPECIES Genus NONION Montfort, 1808 Nonion nassauensis (Applin and Jordan) Plate 4, figs. 1, 2, 4-8, 12 Miscellanea nassauensis Applin and Jordan, 1945, Jour. Paleont., vol. 19, No. 2, pp. 139, 140, pl. 19, figs. 4a, b. In the thin sections of this species which were made certain features appeared which recalled similar features of representa- tives of the family Nonionidz and also the species which Vaughan 4 BULLETIN 126 228 (1929, pp. 376, 377) named Camerina matleyi. The basic struc- tures cbserved in uassauensis were the extreme development of vertical canals which in transverse sections break the walls in- to a series cf pillarlike structures between which the canals ap- pear and there is no marginal cord, Thin sections were made of certain specimens of Recent E/- phi.twm and of one species of fossil Elphidium for comparison. Although Cushman (1940, p. 212) does not mention a canal system in the discussion in his textbook of the family Nonionide, on page 399 ot this same work in the key to the families, it is stated that there is no canal system. Glaessner (1945, p. 154) states of the family Nonionide: “wall finely perforate, in ad- vanced forms with a septal and spiral canal system.” Hofker (1927, plate 26) gives splendid diagrams and illustrations of the canal system of representatives of this family. The following table gives the measurements of several thin sections of nassauensis : Specimen Ppl 2 3 4 5 6 Height ... 0:96 mm. 0.9 mm. 1:2 mm. 0:92 mm. - 0:86 mm. > 1:1) mm: Width ...... 0.84 mm. 0.8 mm. —— Thickness — 0.74 mm. 0.58 mm. 0.66 mm. 0.8 mm. Number of coils BE) 3 —- —. ——> ——s Number of chambers in final volu- LOW se real Uf 17 —— —— eee pe The fossil specimens of Flphidium with which the structure of nassauensis may be compared had a width of 0.7 mm. with a height of 0.8 to 0.94 mm. and a thickness of 0.38 to 0.42 mm. These specimens in median section show about three coils with 22 chambers in the final volution. The major difference to be observed is the fact that the cham- ber walls extend completely from one spiral wall to the other in the median sections of Elphidium, whereas there appears to be an aperture at the proximal side of the chamber walls in nas- sauensis. Moreover, the structures in mnassawensis are coarser than corresponding structures in the specimen of Elphidium. Photomicrographs of the wall structure of specimens of nas- sauensis and Elphidium are given on Plate 4, figures 12, 13. As these structures are so similar and as nassauensis lacks a mar- ginal cord, it would appear that nassauensis should be assigned 229 FORAMINIFERAL STRUCTURES: COLE 5 to some genus in the family Nonionide. As the sutures of Elphidiuwm have retral processes, a number of specimens of nassauensis were examined for this feature. It is not present; the sutures are simple. Although the aperture was not observed on any of the specimens examined, the med- ian sections show that there is apparently an aperture at the base of each chamber wall. These factors lead us to believe that the species nassaucnsis should be referred to the genus Nonion. The similarity in structure of the test specimens. known as Miscellanea matleyi (Vaughan) with Elphidium and N. nassau- ensis Causes one to wonder if these specimens may not be incor- rectly assigned. They may represent also some type ‘which should be referred to the family Nonionide. (See notes on matleyi under the discussion of the genus Miscellanea. ) It will be noted from figures 12 and 13, Plate 4, that there is a relatively large canal in the upper portion of these figures. Similar canals occur in Miscellanea miscella and M. stampi (Davies, 1937, pl. 6, fig. 18; Vaughan and Cole, 1941, pl. 5, figs. I, 3). Vaughan (1945, p. 24) has found similar canals in cer- tain species of Operculinoides. In Elphidium rota and N. nassauensis this canal appears to oc- cur only in the wall of the outermost volution, whereas in MV. miscella and M. stampi it occurs in volutions other than the out- ermost.

Palmer (1934, pp. 243-244) eréct- ed the species dickersoni which she placed questioningly in the genus Camerina. Certain specimens from the Upper Cretaceous of Mexico were referred to this species by Barker (1939, pp. 226, 227). Voorwijk (1937, pp. 191, 192) who had studied numerous samples from the Upper Cretaceous in the vicinity of Habana, Cuba, stated that the species cubensis D. K. Palmer (1934, pp. 245, 246) and vermunti Thiadens (1937, pp. 94, 95 should be combined uncer the specific name dickersont. 6 BULLETIN 126 230 Cole (1942, pp. 640-641) published a median and a transverse section of topotypes of dickersoni and agreed with Voorwijk that dickersoni, cubensis, and vermunti should be combined, At that time Cole was of the opinion that all of these species should be referred to Operculina catenula Cushman and Jarvis (1932, Pp. 42). Later, Cole (1944, pp. 38, 39) referred certain specimens from a deep well in Florida to dickersoni, withdrawing thesas= signment of dickersoni to catenuwla after Vaughan had re-éxam- ined the types of dickersomi and catenula. In the meantime Thalmann (1938, p. 330) had created a new subgenus, Sulcoperculina, of the genus Operculina with Camer- ma 2 dickersoni as the subgenotype. Caudri (1944, p. 20) stated that the subgenus Sulcoperculina is distinct from Miscel- lanca to which genus Cole had referred the combined group of species placed under catenula. Applin and Jordan (1945, pp. 140, 141) concluded the speci- mens from Florida were a distinct species and should not be re- ferred to dickersoni. These authors created the species cosdent for the Florida specimens which they placed under the genus Operculina in the subgenus Sulcopercultna., Finally, Vaughan (1945, p. 25) gave a brief review of the status of these species with the statement: “I am inclined to recognize Sulcoperculina as a valid genus or sub-genus and to associate it with Miscellanea.” Hanzawa (1937, Pp. 115) had noted “the delicate pectination perceptible along the margin of the test leads us to wonder if they (Camerina? dickerson and Camerina? cubensis) may not be small species of Pellatis pirella.” Pellatispirella was placed later as a synonym of Miscellanea by Vaughan and Cole (1941, pp. 32, 33)- Although there has been much speculation on the relationship and taxonomic position of the various forms mentioned above, few illustrations of thin sections made from these forms have been published. In the original description of dickersoni and » cubensis Mrs. Palmer furnished only drawings. Barker (1939, plate 20, figure 3; plate 21, figure 12) gave a satisfactory illus- tration of a median and a transverse section of specimens he re- ferred to dickersoni. Voorwijk (1937, plate 2, figures 11-16; plate ba | 231 FORAMINIFERAL STRUCTURES: COLE 3, figures 3, 6) gave a sketch of a transverse section, a photomi- crograph of a median section and a good enlargement of a por- tion of this median section. Cole (1942, plate 92, figures 6, 7) figured a median and transverse section of topotypes of dicker- soni and later (1944, plate 21, figures 8-11) illustrated the inter- nal features of the specimens from Florida with one median and three transverse sections. Thiadens (1937, plate 16, figures 1, 11, 12; text figures 3A, I.) published photomicrographs of two median sections and pre- sented two sketches of transverse sections of the species vermunti. No illustrations of the internal structure of cubensis have been published. Of the published figures, a comparison of the topotype thin sections (Cole, 1942, plate 92, figures 6, 7) with the thin sec- tions of Floridian specimens (Cole, 1944, plate 21, figures 8, 10) demonstrated that the Floridian specimens are close, if not identical, with the topotypes of dickersoni. The transverse sec- tion published by Barker (1939, plate 21, figure 12) is virtually the same as the transverse section given by Cole (1944, plate 21, figure 11). The median section published by Barker (1939, plate 20, figure 3) is different from that of the topotype of dick- ersomt or that of the Floridian specimen in that there are more chambers in the final volution. The median sections published by Thiadens (1937, plate 10, figures II, 12) of C. vermunti are similar to the one given by Voorwijk (1937, plate 3, figure 3). In the collection of the writer there is a sample of the Upper Cretaceous of Cuba sent through the courtesy of the late Mrs. D. K. Palmer. This sample is labelled “one kilometer west of Central San Antonio (Madruga) on the railroad to Central Her- shey-Palmer station 1214." The material from this station fur- nished the type of Vaughanina cubensis D. K. Palmer (1934, pp. 240-241). It may be noted in passing that I’. cubensis and specimens referred by the writer to cickersoni occurred together in the sample at 2985-3000 feet in the Hilliard Turpentine Com- pany well 1, located in Nassau County, Florida, From this Cuban sample over 100 specimens were recovered which had the characteristics of the forms under discussion, DP BULLETIN 126 232 Recently, through the will of the late Mrs. D. K. Palmer, her magnificent collection of Foraminifera was deposited in the Paleontological Research Institution at Ithaca, New York. From this collection I was able to study through the courtesy of Pro- fessor-emeritus G. -D. Harris and Dr. Katherine Palmer a num- ber of original slides prepared by the late Mrs. D. K. Palmer. The Florida Geological Survey through Mr. Herman Gunter, Director, kindly sent me the slide which Applin and Jordan pre- sented to the Florida Geological Survey to represent this spe- cies. The Florida Geological Survey also sent me a sample at a depth of 2490-2500 feet and one at a depth of 2550-2560 feet from the J. S. Cosden, W. L. Lawson well 1 in Marion County, Florida. A number of specimens were recovered from these samples. From these various lots of specimens there was prepared 19 transverse sections and 12 median sections. For the study of the external features there were available over 300 specimens. Table I gives the results of measurements of the various thin sections subjoined with measurements given by others. On the slide presented to the Florida Geological Survey by Applin and Jordan there are five specimens, three of which are uncut, one is ground nearly to the median plane on one side and the other has been ground on both sides, one of which exposes 2 tangential view of the median plane.

Thiad- ens (1937, p. 95) stated: “The straight radiating septa and the median groove on the edge are characteristics of this species (vermunti). It differs from C. dickersoui Palmer in the greater thickness of the test and the form of its septa. C. cubensis Palmer, which typically is ornamented by many knobs, is also quite different from C. vermunti.” Voorwijk (1937, p. 192) pointed out that all three of these species possess the median groove, therefore, the distinguishing features must be size, shape, external ornamentation, and the like ratuer than some particular structural feature. Applin and Jordan (1945, p. 141) in creating the species cos- cent stated: “The Florida species is stoutly lenticular, not thin and compressed; the sutures are fairly distinct, but not raised; the chambers are generally less numerous; the central area 1s strong- ly elevated, while on the Cuban form (dickersoni) it is gener- ally depressed ; the umbos are very large, pitted and bordered by a granular area, whereas on C. ¢ dickersoni they are small to moderately large, smooth, flattened, and granulations are not present.” These authors did not give any comparison with C. vermuntt Thiadens. There are two questions to be resolved regarding tie various named forms discussed above: 1. The number and _ relation- ship of the species. 2, The genus to which these forms should be referred. The relationship of the species will be discussed first The form called cubensis is considered to be a highly orna- mented variant of cickersoni, therefore, there are in the litera- ture three specific names, dickersoni, vermunti, and coscent. In the series of specimens from Palmer station 1214, certain specimens were recognized immediately as the forms to which Thiacens gave the name vermunti. This identification was sub- stantiated by thin sections which were made and later by com- parison with -topotypes from the collection of Mrs. D. K. Palmer. These specimens are designated in Table I the ver- munti type under Palmer station 1214. 10 BULLETIN 126 234 Comparison of the specimens from Florida with the specimens from Palmer station 1214 proves that they are identical. More- over, they correspond almost exactly with the description, measurements, and figures given by Thiadens in the type de- scription of vermunti. There are other specimens in the suite from Palmer station 1214 that were separated at first into a second lot, mainly on size. But, upon detailed study and arranging all these speci- mens in a straight line series based upon diameter increase alone, it was discovered that it was a natural series without a break. A similar series was arranged with topotypes of dickersoni, and the two series were compared. It is easy to distinguish specimens at the ends of these series into the dickersoni type and the vermunti type but it is impossible to distinguish speci- mens at the beginning of one series from those of the other. Voorwijk (1937, pp. I91, 192) recognized this fact and re- corded it in this quoted statement: “Further differences be- tween the three species are of too little importance to justify their separation.” A “species” in paleontology may be one of convenience rather than one of fact. The criteria and methods used in differentiat- ing fossil “species” are often quite different from those used in describing living forms. In considering these forms there are two series, one of which ends in a compressed, rather highly or- namented form, the other ending in a moderately inflated, lenti- cular form without much ornamentation. Yet, each series may be traced through intermediate types to a seemingly common initial form for each series. Moreover, these different types occur at the same stratigraphic horizon although one end form or the other may be more prevalent at certain geographic locali- ties. I cannot believe that these represent separate and distinct natural species. This same type of problem is encountered with Lepidocyclina ocalana Cushman and its allies. Vaughan (1928, pp. 155, 156) suggested in this case that a basic species, ocalana, be recognized of which the other named variants become varieties. Although I am convinced that in the two cases only one true 235 FORAMINIFERAL STRUCTURES: COLE 11 species is present in each group, for convenience it may be well to recognize varieties. Therefore, the species dickersont is desig- nated the basic species with varieties cubensis and vermunti. The species name cosdeni is a synonym of variety vermunti. Vaughan (1945, p. 25) apparently arrived at the same conclusion when he wrote: ‘With reference to Camerina? dickersoni, of which C. ? cubensis and C. vermunti are variants.” The outstanding structural features of the tests in this group are the spiral groove on the periphery of the test, the delicate pectinations on the margin of the test and the double walled radial septa which apparently enclose distinct hollow channels. The marginal pectinations are similar to those possessed by certain specimens of Miogypsinoides sanjosensis Hanzawa (1940, p. 775) figured by Barker and Grimsdale (1937) as Miogyp- sina (Miogypsinoides) complanata Schlumberger (see figure 8, plate 6 in, “Studies of Mexican Fossil Foraminifera’). In this same article Barker and Grimsdale prove that Rotalia mexicana, variety mecatepecensis Nuttall possesses a_ radial canal system which is similar to that developed in specimens of the dickersoni group. Certain specimens of Amphistegina lopes- trigoi D. K. Palmer possess a spiral groove (see figure 10, plate 9, Florida Geol. Survey, Bull. 26, 1944) but this feature is not found in all specimens of this species. Therefore, the special structural features of this species are not unique if they are con- - sidered individually but might be so in combination. Hanzawa (1937, p. 115) places Operculina bermudesi D. K. Palmer (1934, pp. 238-240) in the genus Pellatispirella, Vaughan and Cole (1941, pp. 32, 33) consider Pellatispirella a synonym of Miscellanea. Inasmuch as Cole (1942, p. 640) placed the dickersoni group under the genus Miscellanea, and Vaughan (1945, p. 25) wrote concerning the dickersoni group, “I am in- clined to recognize Sulcoperculina as a valid genus or subgenus and to associate it with Miscellanea,” a transverse section of M. bermudezi (figure 11, Plate 3) is illustrated for comparison with transverse sections of the dickersoni group. The most conspicuous feature of the transverse section of M. bermudezi is the well-developed marginal cord which consists a bo BULLETIN 126 23 of a series of radiating structures with radiating channels between trem. Near the. periphery a series of round pores occur which apparently represent canals which follow the periphery of the test These features are shown in figure 11, Plate 3. if this illustration of the marginal cord of M. bermudezi be compared with the drawing of dickersoni given by the late Mrs. PD. ix. Palmer (1934) as figure 2, plate 14, the similarity in the features of the marginal cord will be noted at once. Transverse sections of topotypes of dickersoni demon- strate that this species possesses a marginal cord which is similar to that of M. bermudezi. The features of the marginal cord are shown by figures 12, 13 of Plate 1. It will be noted that one of these specimens (figure 12, Plate 1) has a hollow spiral canal similar to that of M7. stamp: (Davies) (see Vaughan and (Cole; 1941, pl; 5,-fig..3))s Certain specimens from Florida because of their preservation show a marginal cord which is even more convincing than that ebserved in the topotypes of dickersoni. The marginal cord of the specimen illustrated by figure 6, Plate 1, was enlarged for comparison with the marginal cord of M. bermucdezi. This en- largement is given’as figure 9, Plate 3. Not only does this en- larzement show similar features of the marginal cord, but it “emonstrates also the similarity in the structure of the wall of the test when a comparison is made with M. bermudezi (figure 11, Plate.3). In view of the identity of structures, it is apparent that the dickersoni group represent primitive forms of the genus Mzscel- lanea. The aperture of a topotype of dickersoni could be observed. The major aperture is a narrow, open slit at the base of the chamber wall. This aperture is not symmetrical but extends more on one side of the median plane than the other. Certain transverse sections also show the aperture. Observation of fig- ures 1 and 11, Plate 1, and figure 7, Plate 3, will show the pri- mary aperture. In addition to the primary aperture, certain specimens seem to possess some pores which pierce the septal walls. Hanzawa (1937, p. 115) in the description of Pellatispirella FORAMINIFERAL STRUCTURES: COLE 13 bo 3 matieyi wrote concerning the apertures of this form: “its mul- tiple apertures, of which the median one is the largest (37 p X 18 » in diameter), and the other, small (10 w in diameter) ones, are deposed at the base of the septa and are separate’! from each other by intervals nearly equal to the diameter of each aperture.” This description would fit the apertural arranze- ment seen in thin sections of Elphidium. Vaughan (1945, p. 25) re-examined syntypes of Pellatispirella entillea of which Hanzawa (1937, p. 116) stated, “apertures mul- tiple along the base of the septa,” but he did not find these mul- tiple apertures. Nor did he find a single, slitlike aperture in tis species. The published figures and description of Pellatispirella mat- leyit do not indicate that this form possesses a marginal cord. This feature is present in all the other American species assigne to the genus Miscellanea= Pellatispirella. With the exception of this feature, Pellatispirella matleyi 1s similar to the other spe- cies with which it has been associated under the genus Miscel- lanea. Caudri (1944, pp. 17-21) recoenized certain of the difficulties in grouping these various forms. She resolved this by grouping the species miscella, stamipi, and matleyi under the genus Miscel- lanea and such species as nuttalli, antillea, tobleri, soldadensis, and bermudezi under the new genus Rantkothalia. The species miscella and stampi are closer in structural ar- rangement to such species as soldadensis than they are to mat- leyi. Vaughan (1945, p. 25) recognized this and stated, “The vertical canals and the double wall are as greatly developed in Miscellanea soldadensis as in M. stampi.” Although the writer agreed with Vaughan earlier in placing all the species assigned by Hanzawa (1937) to the genus Pellatis- pirella under Miscellanea, it wouldd seem desirable from this study to reassign the species matleyi to Pellatispirella but place the other species under Miscellanea. Moreover, Pellatispirella probably does not represent a genus of the family Camerinidee but one of the family Nonionide. In this organization the emphasis is placed on the presence 14 BULLETIN 126 238 or absence of a marginal cord rather than the degree of disinte- gration of the supplementary skeleton.

Genus ROTALIA Lamarck, 1804 Davies (1932-33) re-examined the type species, Rotalia tro- chiciformis Lamarck, upon which the genus Rotalia is based. In a clearly worded and well-illustrated article the features of this genus were discussed as they occur in the types. In this same article Davies (1932-33, p. 406) erected the genus Lock- hartia. A brief comparative table of the major differences be- tween Fotalia and Lockhartia follows : Lockhartia Rotalia Tubulated Coarsely tubulated Umbilical pillars continuous Pillars short, irregular, and = Jimited generally to the level of their own respective whorls Umbilical region not invaded by Umbilical region deeply invaded. by lower chamber wall lower chamber wall No secondary chambers developed Secondary chambers present 239 FORAMINIFERAL STRUCTURES: COLE 15 Until Cole (1942) described Lockhartia bermudezi from Cuba, this genus had been known only from the Paleocene and lower I.ocene of India and Somaliland. Recently, Applin and Jordan (1945, pp. 143, 144) referred certain small specimens from a deep well in Florida to this genus. Through the Florida Geological Survey the sample at 1067 feet in the Dundee Petroleum Company, Bushnell well 1, located in Sumter County, Florida, was sent to the writer, This sam- ple represents the type locality of Lockhartia cushmani Applin and Jordan. The preparation of this form filed by Applin and Jordan was sent at the same time so that the specimens recov- ered from the sample could be compared with specimens identi- fied by the authors of this species. A cursory examination of these specimens indicated that they should not be referred to Lockhartia and an examination of the type description indicated that many of the details of this inter- esting form had been overlooked. A series of thin sections were made. There follows a description of the external and internal features of these specimens. Rotalia cushmani (Applin and Jordan) Cole Plate 5, figs. 2-8 Lockhartia cushmani Applin and Jordan, 1945, Jour. Paleont., vol. 19, No. 2, pp. 143-144, pl. 21, figs. 5a, b. Test biconvex to nearly planoconvex, the ventral side with the greatest convexity; dorsally, there is a slightly raised and thick- ened spiral suture and between the coils of this suture the shell wall is coarsely punctate; radial sutures marking the walls of the chambers are present in the apical area as raised ridges of clear shell material, but near the periphery of the test the radial sutures do not develop; the apical area is covered virtually with clear shell material of the spiral and radial sutures; beyond this area the coarsely punctate wall of the dorsal side appears as a slowly widening spiral band between the spiral suture; ventrally, the umbilical area is pronounced and contains an anastomosing mass of solid shell material which represents the fused outer ends of the internal pillars; beyond this area there is a series of deep- ly impressed, radial marginal furrows which extend to the per- iphery of the test; the chamber walls between the marginal fur- rows are punctate, but less coarsely so than the dorsal side. 16 BULLETIN 126 240 The embryonic apparatus is bilocular and is situated at the dorsal apex of the test just under the thick dorsal wall, The embryonic chambers have an internal diameter across both chambers at right angles to the dividing partition of about 90 up. The parvition dividing the two chambers is nearly straight. A transverse section below that which exposes the embryonic apparatus shows the initial ends of the pillars at the center of the test beyond which occurs the series of chambers of the outer coils. A transverse section of this type made from a specimen with a diameter of 1.7 mm. has approximately 3 coils with 19 chambers in the final volution. The chamber walls are very slightly and evenly curved with the convex side toward the aper- tural end, At their proximal ends some of the chamber walls are slightly thickened and bent sharply backwards toward the initial portion of the test. In this type of chamber wall there is a passage with a diameter of about 30 p between the end of the chamber wall and the adjacent spiral wall. These passages rep- resent the principal apertures of the test. A transverse section about halfway down the ventral portion of the test has the central area occupied by the pillars. These are arranged in the form of a spiral. Most of the pillars have truncated outer ends and bluntly rounded inner ends as observed in plan view. The initial pillars of this spiral differ in that they are fused into a Y-shaped mass, the arms of which point out- ward, From this spiral of pillars the outer whorl is generated. In this outer whorl secondary chambers are formed near the per- iphery by the bifurcation of the primary chamber walls as they approach the periphery. A transverse section which cuts the test almost at the ventral apex shows a fused and an anastomosing set of pillars in the central portion surrounded by a coil of primary chambers which in turn have incorporated at their outer edge secondary cham- bers similar to those described above. The essential measurements of four axial sections follow : Specimen wit weenie ee sere 1 1 3 4 Diameter teehee ead ena: 1.7 mm. 1.4 mm. 1.66 mm. 1.78 mm.

The pillars do not penetrate to the embryonic ap- paratus but end normally some distance below. ‘The pillars may extend continuously through several whorls, or they may be re- stricted to one whorl. Certain of the pillars are free, but more commonly they fuse with each other, The radial furrow which forms a pronounced feature of the ventral surface of the test is formed by a bending of the floors of the chambers. Looplike structures of shell material observed in certain axial sections are thought to represent the walls of the secondary chambers which were described from the transverse sections. In one axial section the orientation was such that the embry- onic chambers were well exposed. These chambers lie immedi- ately below the thick, porous, dorsal wall, and it appears as if the upper wall of the embryonic chambers were a portion of the dorsal wall of the test. These chambers have an internal length of 120 w and an internal height at the highest portion of 80 up. The lower wall of these chambers is relatively thick, about 20 p thick, and perforate. The wall between the two chambers is thinner and nearly straight. The ends of the curved floors of the chambers penetrate the dorsal wall in such a manner that their ends project slightly above the upper surface of the dorsal wall of the test. It is these projecting ends which form the spiral suture observed on the dorsal side of the test. These curved floors are composed of dense material so that they contrast with the coarsely perforate dorsal wall. The foregoing description demonstrates that Lockhartia cush- mani represents a Rotalia. Text figure I is a reproduction of the drawings which Davies gave to illustrate the principal fea- tures in the axial sections of Lockhartia and Rotalia. For com- parison a sketch of the essential features of Rotalia cushmani 1s given. In the type description Applin and Jordan stated: ‘Vertical sections show pillars extending both dorsally and ventrally from 18 BULLETIN 126 949 ROTALIA.

The supposed dorsal pillars are the coarsely perforated wall of the dorsal side of the test. Nor do the ventral pillars penetrate to the embryonic chambers. However, it is not necessary to dwell on this as the figures dem- onstrate the true characters readily. Genus TURBINULINA Risso, 1826 Les Turbinulines d’Orbigny, 1826 Genotype hereby designated, 7. italica (d’Orbigny) Nautilus beccarii Linné (fide Parker and Jones, 1871). Davies (1932-33, p. 412) has written: “Before beccaru (or any other species can be treated as even inclusive among the Rotalia (s. str.), it must be shown to be generically identifiable with R. trochidiformis. If not so identifiable, it must be referred to some other genus; perhaps beccarii itself should be returned to D’Orbigny’s genus Turbinulina of which D’Orbigny quoted it as a leading type.” In the course of this investigation several thin sections of R. beccarti and R. mexicana, variety mecatepecensis were made. These forms exhibit similar arrangements and _ structures, but these are different from those of R. trochidiformis and R. cush- mant. 243 FORAMINIFERAL STRUCTURES: COLE 19 In R. beccaru and the related Mexican specimens the umbilicus is filled either with a solid pillar or a series of fused pillars. More- over, such umbilical plugs extend inward to the embryonic ap- paratus. Barker and Grimsdale (1937, p. 167) have observed and pub- lished illustrations of extremely small subsidiary chambers which are incompletely septate and occur near the periphery of the test at the distal ends of radial septa in Rotalia mexicana, var- iety mecatepecensis. One of the sections in the present collec- tion shows the same feature. So far as it was possible to ascer- tain specimens of beccari do not possess these subsidiary cham- bers. The secondary chambers of FR. trochidiformis and R. cushmani are large. It would appear, therefore, as if two distinct types are placed at present in the genus Rotalia, namely, the trochidiformis group with numerous, discontinuous pillars which occupy a large por- tion of the ventral surface of the test and in which the pillars do not reach inward to the embryonic chambers but which do have large supplementary chambers and, the beccarii group with a single or fused pillars which extend inward to the embryonic apparatus and only occupy a small portion of the ventral face. Moreover, in this group the supplementary chambers are small and insignificant. Therefore, it is proposed that the deccarzz group be placed in the genus Turbinulina.

STILLMAN BERRY Redlands, California This is the third (the first appeared as No. g4A and the sec- ond as No, 101 of these Bulletins—Berry, 1940, 1941) of a series of papers incidental to my study of certain Pleistocene and upper Phocene biotas of southern California. Diagnoses of two mol- luscan genera and seven species of much interest, believed hither- to undescribed, are herein submitted in the hope of their critical consideration by other students prior to the appearance of the final reports. One new species, with its new genus, is a minute pelecypod with a curious hinge, and one is a Nucula, all the rest being gastropods. Of the latter, one is a turrid, one an excessive- ly minute species and genus of problematic rissoid affinity, and the remainder are ctenobranchs. The occurrence in the Lomita and related formations of two new species of Puncturella and a beautiful new Scissurella is noteworthy. For the present I continue a tentative classification of the Hilltop Quarry and other “Lomita” exposures as lowermost Pleistocene, and the undeniably nearly related, although as sure- ly not identical, ““Bath-house” exposure of the Santa Barbara formation as uppermost Pliocene. This may the better be for- given since far abler and more experienced stratigraphers than I can claim to be are far from agreement as to the precise age of these formations, some workers placing both of them above, others below the line of demarcation between the Pliocene and Pleistocene. In its finality I believe that the decision regarding this line in marine formations throughout our area must large- ly be determined upon faunistic grounds, and in this decision the extraordinarily representative fauna of Hilltop Quarry, which is nearly or quite the largest thus far brought to light from a 4 BULLETIN 127 258 single west American formation, must play a large if not a de- cisive part. I have not been able to revisit this wonderful spot for several years, and meanwhile I am told that its really tragic selection as the site of one of the government “projects” has for all practical purposes quite obliterated it. However, from such quarryings as | was able to obtain and sift while it remained open, the number of molluscan species now segregated is approaching 350, that of species of other major phyla some 100 or more, rang- ing from a specifically determined alga to a mammal. I am as usual indebted to various friends who at times have rendered assistance in the collection of material and who will be mentioned accordingly in proper sequence, as well as to Prof. G. D. Harris, and to Katherine V. W. Palmer and Axel A. Olsson of the Paleontological Research Institution for the photographs used in the plates. Nucula (Ennucula) microsperma, new species Plate 2, figs. 1-4 Diagnosis.——Shell minute, much resembling a small seed in size, shape, and appearance; moderately plump, subtruncate be- hind; profile obliquely ovate-trigonal; anterio-dorsal slope long, gently arcuately sloping above the hinge plate to the somewhat produced yet rounded anterior angle; posterior slope sharply declivous, weakly arcuate, subangular to obtusely angular at the posterio-ventral bend; ventral margin well curved; axial view: ovate-cordiform ; lunule and escutcheon indistinctly delimit- ed and therefore difficult to make out clearly, although there is some indication that both are present. Nepionic shell small, smooth, but distinct, forming a rather prominent calyculation of the beaks; adult shell very finely, closely, and often rather ob- scurely concentrically ribbed, the ribs usually not much stronger than striz. Anterior hinge plate long, with five or six fairly well- developed, dorsally truncate teeth, besides one or two possible rudiments of teeth at either end; posterior plate short, with only three to four well-developed teeth and sometimes a rudiment, or what appears to be such, in the angle adjacent to the chondro- phore. Chonelrophore small to moderately large, concave, round- ed, rather like a half-opened fan in shape. Posterior muscle scar small and narrow vertically; anterior scar much larger and wider. Margin smooth within, narrowly beveled in perfect shells. 259 PLEISTOCENE MoLLuscA on Canir.: Berry ry Measurements of holotype.-—Max. long., 1.85; alt., 1.48; diam., 0.52 mm.; of paratype, max. long., 1.70; alt. 1.41; diam.

PALMER INTRODUCTION The Palmer Collection of Cuban fossils was made during the 17 years between 1929 and 1946. There are 3217 localities num- bered consecutively from I to 3217. They range in age from upper Jurassic to upper Tertiary. Great care has been taken to secure accuracy. At the time of collection, each locality was given a number and the place and date recorded. The list is largely of selected fossil locali- ties as data, except for lithologic purposes, were seldom taken where no fossils were found. The present list is a copy of these records. The collection consists of several thousand specimens. For the most part they are deposited with the U. S. Nat. Museum, a few are in the Yale collection and the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, some are in the Commission Geo- logico in Habana, Cuba, and much material is at the Paleonto- logical Research Institution, and many specimens have been sent to individuals. A large part of the corals were sent to the British Museum of Natural History. The echinoids have been largely taken from the general collection and are the subject of special monographs by me. The localities are scattered over the six provinces of Cuba: Pinar del Rio, Habana, Matanzas, Santa Clara (Las Villas, the old name, but now made official), Camagtey, and Oriente. There has been but little collecting in the eastern portion of Oriente. All collections were made and the localities were described by ime personally except a very few that bear a PC number (Palmer Collection). These specimens were given by third parties. The age determinations where given were made by my wife, the late Dorothy K. Palmer, on the basis of Foraminifera or by myself working with associations of fossils where a few were 4 BULLETIN 128 278 known. Consecutive numbers in the list do not mean closely located localities except by chance: one collecting point may be close to or very distant from another with a near sequence number. A small scale map of Cuba accompanies the list. This is for general purposes only. It is maniiestly impossible and imprac- tical for the purposes at hand to plot even a portion of the 3217 localities, or even to select important ones seemed an impossible task, hence none have been plotted. A word on the Carta Militar of Cuba is necessary. The map of Cuba has been divided into 70 parts numbered in sequence beginning at the western end. These together have been called the Carta Militar of Cuba. Each part is called an Hoja or Sheet and given a number, The map is variously referred to as Carta Militar (abbreviated to C. M.) ——— or Hoja ——— ‘or Mili- tary Sheet (M. S.) ———— or Sheet —-—— with the appropri- ate number or often simply the number is given. The sheet numbers are often used in this list of localities. The geography’ and the contours have been drawn on each sheet. These are for the most part not reliable and have not heen followed in all cases in describing the localities. The Sheets were first made in the early part of the present century on a scale of 1:63,000, one inch to the mile. Later they were redrawn to .a scale of 1 :100,000, I centimeter to the kilo- meter. The errors of the original were largely repeated and the geographical coverage remained the same. The present list has, therefore, used as references anything available: towns, sugar mills (centrales, these are very important), fincas (farms), roads including the Carretera Central (Central Highway run- ning from Pinar del Rio to Santiago, 1155 km.—693 miles). Carta Militar, rivers, kilometer posts, distances in kilometers (4 kilometers is one league), railroads, cane lines (private rail- roads owned and operated by sugar mills), gruas (cane hoists), provincial boundaries, mines, historical monuments and, in fact, any seographical landmarks capable of future identification. Though what seemed to be the best reference points used at the time it is not to be supposed that better ones, not available at that time would enable the worker to more quickly and accurate- 279 CUBAN LOCALITIES: PALMER 5 ly determine a locality nor is it supposed that all localities can be definitely located. It is very probable that the aerial photographs taken during the war may provide sufficient data for a more accurate map of Cuba. Unfortunately this map has not vet been made. There have been many local maps of various parts of Cuba made from private surveys of sugar mills, o11 companies, muni- cipalities, etc. These contain roads and other easily identifiable culture. Though these have been freely drawn upon to deter- mine localities, it is, of course, impossible to reproduce them. Valuable as they are their use is limited to detail work in the areas covered. An outline of the geology of Cuba may be found in volume LIT, No. 1, January, 1945, of the Journal of Geology. The se- quence and correlation of the formations and members men- tioned in this locality list will be found adequately described in that publication, Reference may also be made to the geological map of Cuba, June, 1946, by the Comision del Mapa Geologico del Ministerio de Agricultura, Habana, scale 1 :1,000,000. The foraminiferal collections and notebooks, imecluding the original locality set, of Dorothy K. Palmer have been presented to the Paleontological Research Institution where they are: ac- cessible to workers wishing additional notes or verification of data.
