Hutton. — Revision of the Tertiary Brachiopoda of N.Z. 479 



Terebratella neglecta, sp. nov. Plate XLVL, fig. 3. 



T. aldingce, Hutton, Trans. N.Z. Inst., xix., p. 406 (not of 



Tate). 



Shell small, ovate, the greatest breadth usually before the 

 middle, smooth, rather depressed ; dorsal valve but slightly 

 convex ; commissure straight. Beak moderate, not much 

 incurved, without lateral keels. Foramen moderate, complete, 

 round ; deltidium small, almost hidden, but solid. Interior 

 unknown. 



Length, 12 mm.; width, 9 mm.; thickness, 6 mm. 



Locality. — Curiosity Shop (type). 



I formerly confused this with T. aldingce, of Tate, but 

 after comparison with specimens of that species, kindly sent 

 me by Professor Tate, I find that it is narrower, and that the 

 beak is not so much produced. 



Terebratella kakanuiensis, sp. nov. 



Small, ovate, the sides nearly straight, smooth, rather in- 

 flated. Both valves considerably curved longitudinally. Com- 

 missure straight. Beak moderate, incurved, not laterally 

 keeled. Foramen moderate ; deltidium hidden. Interior 

 unknown. 



Length, 10 mm. ; width, 8 mm. ; thickness, 6 mm. 



Locality. — Kakanui (type). 



Distinguished by its inflated form and much incurved 

 beak. 



Terebratella gaulteri. Plate XLVL, figs. 4 and 5. 

 T. gaulteri, Morris, Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc, vi., p. 329. 



" Shell subtriangular, smooth, both valves nearly equal 

 and rather depressed ; lateral margins sinuous ; ventral valve 

 with an acute and slightly recurved beak, the foramen below 

 it ; the anterior margin with a broad sinus, producing a cor- 

 responding arched elevation in the smaller valve." (Morris.) 



Length, 21mm.; width, 20 mm. ; thickness, 10 mm. 



Ovato-trigonal, greatest breadth before the middle. Com- 

 missure with a strong upward (dorsal) sinuation at the 

 anterior end. Beak very small, slightly keeled ; foramen 

 minute ; deltidium obscure. Interior unknown. 



Locality. — Curiosity Shop ; Cobden limestone. 



Easily recognised by its small beak and the upward an- 

 terior sinuation. 



Terebratella oamarutica. 



T. oamarutica, Boehm, Zeitsch. d. Deutsch Geol. Ges. 1904, 

 p. 149, pi. xv., f. 9. 



Described from the loop only.
