NOTICE OF NEW CRETACEOUS FOSSILS FROM THE LOWER GREEN 
MARLS OF NEW JERSEY .! 
BY R. P. WHITFIELD, AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL 
HISTORY, NEW YORK CITY. 
Mr. Pilsbry recently sent me a few New Jersey fossils for identi- 
fication ; among them were the following new species which he wished 
me to describe for the NAUTILUS. 
Volutoderma Woolmani n. sp. 
Shell, as shown by the internal cast, somewhat more than an 
inch in length, and having a diameter of the body volution of seven- 
sixteenth of an inch in the cast, being more slender than any species 
yet described. Volutions largest just below the suture and attenuate 
below, forming a moderately long beak; marked in the upper part 
by eight comparatively strong vertical plications, which are obsolete 
below. Columella marked by three very distinct folds or ridges, the 
lowest of which is the strongest. These are well marked on the 
inside of the upper volutions. 
This species like most of those from the New Jersey Green Marls 
is known only from an internal cast. It retains only two volutions 
and is imperfect at the base of the beak. It is very distinct, how- 
1 Tllustrations of the following species will be given next month.
