as they are embedded in the matrix, and there are no clean isolated 

 examples for examination. A large anterior tooth can be seen in 

 one of the right valves, followed by a triangular cardinal cavity ; and 

 the external sculpture is certainly of an unequal concentric character. 

 A. d'Archiac described C. Saulcyi l from Mai Tepe, which is larger 

 than the present species, but in contour shows a resemblance that 

 would suggest the possibility of the new specimens being young- 

 examples of the same.

Horizon. — Oligocene (Stampian), associated with Melanopsis 

 cf. fusiformis and indeterminable plant-remains. 



Plant-eemains. 



Plant-remains, in the shape of dicotyledonous leaf-impressions, 

 have been collected in a brook lying north-west of Beyendi-keui and 

 south-east of Lala-keui. The matrix is a sandstone varying in 

 colour from light-brown to drab, but the specimens themselves are 

 not determinable, and consequently they are of little use for hori- 

 zonal purposes. One of them resembles Myrica lignitwn, Heer, as 

 represented by specimens in the British Museum (Natural History), 

 from Parschlug in Styria : consequently, it is probable that these 

 plant-deposits belong to the Aquitanian stage of the Oligocene. 



Horizon. — Oligocene (Aquitanian ?). 



Indeterminable plant-remains are found associated with Me- 

 lanopsis cf. fusiformis and Corbula sp. in the green marly rock. 

 They are merely impressions, one having a stem-like character. 

 These specimens bear no affinity with the sandstone plant-impressions 

 containing the supposed Myrica lignitum.
