it in the Madras Museum marked with a new specific name, apparently in Mr. Kaye’s 
or Cunliffe’s handwriting. These seem to have been procured subsequently to 
Prof. Forbes’ examination of the fossils, and are probably not from Pondicherry, but 
from the blueish sandstones near Garudamungalum or Serdamungalum. 
Localities.—The above-mentioned are the principal localities within the Trichi- 
nopoly group, where it occurs nearly exclusively. There are only a few specimens 
from South-West of Shutanure, which locality lies, according to Mr. Blanford’s map, 
within the Ootatoor group, but close to the boundary of the Trichinopoly; a few 
specimens are from the east of Veraghoor and south of Arrialoor out of the 
Arrialoor group. 
Lormations.—Principal position in the Trichinopoly-, doubtful in the Ootatoor-, 
but more common in the Arrialoor-groups. 
This species is well known in Europe from the middle cretaceous deposits. 
It occurs throughout Northern Germany from Eastern Galizia towards Aachen and 
the Rhine, and is common in the deposits of the Alpine Gosau-formation. D’Orbigny 
described his specimens from Uchaux, and in his “ Prodrome”’ he places it in the 
étage Turonien. It has not, so far as I am aware, been noticed in England, but a 
similar species is known to be very common in North America. 
2. FULGURARIA MULTISTRIATA, Stoliceka. Pl. VIII, Figs. 1—8. 
Fulg. testa fusiformi elongata, anfractibus postice prope suturam constrictis, 
excavatis, infra constrictionem angulatis ; ultimo maximo, subventricoso ; omninis trans- 
versim tuberculate-costatis, costis ad angulum terminantibus, in ultimo ad medium 
evanescentibus, spiraliter striatis, striis nwmerosis,—inprimis postice,—prope suturam 
nonnullis crassioribus ; labio calloso, ad medium quadriplicato, plicis anticis crassiori- 
bus, obliquioribus atque magis distantibus. 
Spiral angle 50°. 
This species is proposed for a series of specimens, which in general form 
agree with the preceding Fulguraria elongata, D’Orb. They differ by a larger number 
of spiral strize, these being thinner and placed closer to each other, and by having 
four columellar plaits, instead of three. The anterior of the four is somewhat more 
distant than the other three among themselves, and is the most oblique. Interiorly 
all the plaits are comparatively much more oblique than in Fulg. elongata, and there 
is occasionally a thin fifth fold next to the last posterior. The columella is equally 
flattened internally, but externally apparently not so much angulated, except close 
to the anterior extremity. 
Locality —E. of Anapaudy; apparently not very common. 
Formation —Trichinopoly-, close to the boundary of the Arrialoor-group.
