FAUNA OF THE CLIFFWOOD CLAYS 327 



17. Dosinia gabbi Whitf. Several fragmentary specimens seem to 

 be referable to this species, although they are too imperfect 

 for certain identification. 



18. Tellina equilateralis M. & H. ? Several incomplete specimens 

 seem to resemble this species originally described from the Fox 

 Hills beds of the West. The specimens are too imperfect for 

 certain identification. 



19. Veleda lintea (Con.). This is a rather variable shell, but speci- 

 mens from the Cliff wood clays are indistinguishable from exam- 

 ples occurring in the Wenonah sand, where the species most 

 commonly occurs. 



20. Veleda transversa Whitf. ? Among the specimens of Veleda 

 in the Cliffwood fauna several specimens seem to approach this 

 species in form, and have been so identified provisionally. 



21. Pholadomya occidentalis Mort. A single incomplete impression 

 of a large shell seems to represent this species. Eleswhere it 

 seems to be quite closely confined to the Merchantville clay marl. 



22. Corbula sp. undet. The internal casts of this species are rather 

 abundant, but it is difficult to identify them with shells which 

 have been described from external characters. The species 

 seems to resemble the shell illustrated by Whitfield under the 

 name C. joulkei Lea, which is in reality not that species, but 

 C. bisulcata Con. 



GASTROPODA 



23. Pyropsis sp. undet. This shell resembles P. naticoides Whitf., 

 and it is possible that it should be so identified. 



24. Pyrifusus erraticus Whitf. This species is represented by two 

 specimens. It was originally described from a nodule said to 

 have been collected at Cliffwood, N. J. 



25. Volutimorpha gabbi Whitf. ? This species is represented by a 

 single specimen which most closely resembles Whitfield's 1 fig. 4, 

 Plate VIII, referred provisionally to V. gabbi Whitf. The Cliff- 

 wood specimen is a nearly smooth internal cast and does not 

 show the external markings of the shell.
