which shows some resemblance to the Indian forms of P. VelUdcB 

 (Michelin)." The principal difference appears to be that the ribs on 

 the outer third of the whorl are distinctly coarser than on the inner 

 two-thirds. The latter at first curve gently backwards, and then 

 forwards ; the coarser ribs pass directly over the external margin. 



P. VelledcR is the type of de Grossouvre's genus Schluteria, and 

 occurs in the Gault of Europe, the Lower Utatur Group of Southern 

 India, and in the Chalk of Saghalien and Yesso ; perhaps also in 

 California and Vancouver. 



Phylloceras, sp. 

 Plate XLI., fig. 5. 

 There are two specimens of Phylloceras which resemble P. 

 Forbesianum (d'Orbigny),f but differ in having the sides of the 

 shell flattened, and the height of the whorl rather greater. In the 

 larger specimen the measurements are : Diameter 30 mm. ; height 

 18 mm. ; thickness 14-5 mm. 



P. Forhcsianum occurs in the Valudayur Group of Pondicherri.
