108 SUPPLEMENT TO GREAT OOLITE MOLLUSCA. 
Shell small, sub-fusiform or ovately elongated, spire elevated, volutions 5 or 6, rather 
convex ; the last volution ovate ; aperture elliptical, its base narrow ; the surface, with very 
delicate, closely arranged, perpendicular lines, which render the surface slightly rough. 
As the outer lip is much broken in both the specimens examined, the figure of the 
anterior extremity of the aperture is rather doubtful, and the general figure of the shell is 
more fusiform than is usual in this genus; the columella is rounded, and quite destitute 
of any plication.

Osrrea Wittonensis, Lyc. Tab. XXXIV, figs. 1, 1 a. 
Testa, valva libera planata, crassa, solida, ovato-triangulart, brevi, apice erecto, obtuso ; 
sulco cardinis lato, superficiali. Valva affixva ignota. 
Shell with the free valve flattened, but solid and thick; its borders are raised inter- 
nally, rendering the inner surface somewhat concave ; the figure is ovately triangular, but 
short, with the apex erect and obtuse; the hinge sulcus is wide and superficial. The 
affixed valve is unknown. 
Several large specimens of this ponderous but flattened oyster have been obtained by 
Mr, Walton, including the monstrosity, Tab. XXXIV, fig. 1 @. The height is greater than 
the opposite measurement ; it has some resemblance to O. dedtoidea, but less flattened, not | 
transverse, and with the umbones not oblique; and as the specimens are constant in their ° 
general characters, there can be no doubt of its distinctness from that species.

Testa valva inferiore sublevi, excavata, elongata, postice carinata, margine anteriore 
subrecto, cardine brevi, antrorsum curvato. Valva lhbera planata, elongata, lingueformi, 
umboni compresso, arcuato ; facie interno sulco longitudinali oblique instructo. 
Shell, with the affixed valve excavated, elongated, smooth, with a posterior external, 
longitudinal angle; hinge margin short, and curved forwards ; anterior border straight, 
posterior border curved elliptically. Free valve flattened, smooth, lengthened, and tongue- 
shaped, tapering towards both the extremities; the umbo is depressed, and much curved ; 
the inner surface with a lengthened posterior sulcation. The length is usually about twice 
the opposite diameter. 
A species allied to Ewogyra carinata. Roemer Nordd, Ool., p. 66, pl. 3, fig. 15, 
This latter, however, appears to have the affixed valve more flattened and lunulate.
