This is a species of the type of Nuculites branneri Clarke 

 from the Maecurii river' and C u c u 1 1 e 1 1 a ovata Sow. from the Tile- 

 stones of Horeb Chapel 2 but while it approaches both of these very closely 

 there is only the barest indication in the specimens before us of the ante- 



l'holu. by Charles bchuchert 



I levonic beds at Stewart's CO 



uisie, nos, 7 and 



northerly dip of the strata is showi 



rior clavicle shown by a slender depression in the sculpture casts while the 

 other characters of the shell are those of Palaeoneilo, even to the presence 

 of a slight posterior sinuosity or oblique depression which brings it into 

 comparison with P. orbignyi Clarke from Maecurii 3 in which the sur- 

 face is covered with very fine concentric lines, and with a number of more 

 coarsely marked sinuous species from the Coblentzian.
