MOLLUSCOIDEA. 



Class BRYOZOA. 



8. Bryozoa sp. indet. 



Small pieces of branching bryozoa are found quite abundantly in the San 

 Pedro series; but as no diagnoses of West Coast species are available, their generic 

 and specific relations cannot be given. Among some material sent to Dr. Dall, and 

 identified by him, were several specimens which he labeled '■'CiqyuUfera sp." These 

 little saucer-shaped bryozoa are from the upper San Pedro deposits, at the lumber- 

 yard, north end of the San Pedro bluff. 



Class BRACHIOPODA.' 



Order ARTHROPOMATA. 



Family IV. TEREBRATULIDvE. 



Genus Terebratalia Bcecher. 



Shell smooth or radially plaited; dorsal valve longitudinally impressed; hinge-line straight 

 or not much curved; beak with a flattened area on each side of the deltidium; foramen large; del- 

 tidium incomplete; loop attached to the septum. 



IWebratalia obsoleta Dall is a characteristic species. 



[S. B.y Terebratalia hemphilli Dull.

 Terebratalia hemphilli Dall (mss.) 



Shell of medium size, subcircular in outline, rather thin ; brachial valve with mesial flexure 

 concave ; surface of this valve sculptured by numerous fine incremental lines, and very faintly near 

 the apex by several radiating lines ; pedicle valve mesially convex, the sculpture being as in the 

 brachial valve. 



Dimensions. ^V^on^. 56 mm.; lat. 57 mm.; diam. 30 mm. 



This species may be distinguished from T. mntlii by its broader outline, larger 

 foramen, and nearly smooth surface. T. hemphilli is a form which shows much 

 variation both as regards its outline, degree of convexity or concavity of its valves, 

 and its sculpture. The drawings of this species were made by Mr. J. Howard 

 Wilson, who first discovered the species. Found in the Pliocene of Packard's Hill, 

 Santa Barbara.
