aperture rather wide, well turned to the left posteriorly; outer lip broad with 
twenty-six teeth; columella side of aperture with twenty-two well-developed 
teeth. Ileight 55 mm., diameter 37 mm. and 27 mm. 
Loc, : Abattoirs Bore, 320-410 feet, holotype, Adelaidean. 
Remarks: The species is somewhat like the recent U. beddomei but quite 
distinet in the apertural features and in shape. The nearest fossil relative is 
probably U. tatei Cossmau or U. amygdalina Tate 1890, from a ‘‘ Well sinking in 
the Murray Desert,'’ ‘'Cheltenhamian,’’ The present species is shorter, wider 
and higher and has more strongly developed teeth. 
NovrocypRarA BRYMA sp. nov. 
Plate xxi, figs. 6, 7, 8. 
Shell small, smooth and polished, pyriform; anterior extremity a little 
produced; aperture narrow, columella teeth fine, numerous short, not prodieed 
across the base; outer lip produced posteriorly in a characteristic curve, teeth fine, 
short, numerous; not wubilieate, spire not elevated, fossula moderately concave, 
Tleight 21 mm,, diameter 13 mm. aud 12 mm, 
Lov. : Abattoivs Bore 320-410 feet, holotype, Adelaidean. 
Remarks: The Recent N, piperita is the nearest described species. The 
present species is smaller, with wider spaced teeth and slightly more produced. 
UBER SUBJUGUM sp. Noy, 
Plate xxi, figs. 15, 16. 
Shell large, thick, smooth, spire small, only slightly visible above the body 
whorl; aperture semicircular; columella callus thiek and spreading, filling the 
posterior part of the aperture; widely and thickly spreading oyer the body whorl, 
almost covering the umbilicus; microscopic sculpture of spirals and normal growth 
striae. Height 30 inm., diameter 27 mm. 
Loc. : Abattoirs Bore, holotype, Adelaidean. 
Remarks: This species was recorded by Tate 1893 as Natica gibbosa Hutton 
from a ‘‘locality not actually known, but reported as a‘ well-sinking in the Murray 
Desert.’ ’? 
Marwick, 1924, writes that ‘'The disposition of the apertural callus is not the 
same as in the New Zealand species for it is much wider over the umbilicus than 
on the parietal wall, where it is relatively narrow.’’ The length of the spire is 
rather variable in Adelaidean specimens. The correct name for the New Zealand 
species is Uber huttont (von Thering) 1907, the type being from Broken River, 
Trelissick Basin. Polinices gibbosus Hutton 1915 is a synonym.
