On Cretaceous Cephalopoda from Zululand. 275 



from Madagascar figured by Boule, Lemoiue and Thevenin* ai*e very 

 close to the present specimen. On the other hand, the writer would 

 doubt whether Sharpe's P. octosulcata,t included by Pervinquiere + 

 in P. mayor iana, d'Orbigny sp., is as close to P. bhima as Kossmat 

 thought. P. coinpacta, Crick, from the Middle Tributary of the 

 Manuan Creek, and probably of the same age as the form here 

 described, i. e. Upper Albian, may be the young of a form of the 

 planulata group, comparable with P. octosulcata. P. concinna, Crick, || 

 from the same locality, was stated to come nearest P. bhima, but has 

 only five constrictions, distinct costation at a small size, and a far 

 less conspicuous forward sweep of the sulci, so that this species also 

 has closer i-elations with the plamdata group than with the inscnlpta- 

 bhima group.

The specimen (No. 4902) that is referred to this species is some- 

 what fragmentary, but permits of the dimensions being measured at 

 the following two diameters : 



Diameter .... 120 mm. 54 mm. 



Height of last whorl . . 46 per cent. 41 per cent. 



Thickness ,, ,, . . 30 30 



Umbilicus . . 24 30 



* Loc. dt., I (190G), p. 19, pi. iii, figs. 2-4. These authors state that P. 

 ttoliczkai lias a notably wider umbilicus than P. iascufpla, whereas Kossmat's 

 figures are 22 per cent, and 2f> per cent, respectively for the umbilical widths 

 in these two species.
