Fossil Fish Remains. 283 



Locality and Horizon. — Beaumaris, Port Phillip (Dixon Coll. ; 

 Pritchard Coll.). Grange Burn (Nat.' Mus. Coll., presented by 

 A. A. Kelley, and purchased from R. Lindsay ; also Pritchard 

 Coll.). 



Observations. — We have examined a fair number of specimens, 

 ■which agree closely with the diagnosis and figures given by A. 

 S. Woodward, but some of our examples are about twice the 

 height of the type specimens. The original specimens came 

 from the London clay, Highgate.

Observations. — To this species we have referred numerous 

 slender minute teeth which do not appear to belong to any 

 other series, and are exactly comparable with the figures of both 

 the above-mentioned forms. 0. minuta has been recorded from 

 the Lower Miocene of Osnabruck, Prussia, and Piedmont, 

 Naples, and Sicily. It occurs in N. Zealand in the Oamaru for- 

 mation (Oligocene).
