226 Appendix. [No. 3, 



It is very perfectly oval and varies but little in shape. It has, in 

 most specimens, neither sinus or folds, and the line of junction of the 

 valves forms a nearly perfect curve in front. In a few specimens there 

 is a very trifling undulation of this line. The absence of sinus and 

 fold distinguishes from the T. Globata ; it is also a smaller shell, but 

 yet may be only a variety of it. Found with the above. 



Terebratula Garinata, Lam. 



Pal. of Niti, p. 99, PL 21. fig 5. 



Our specimens are much more like the T. Garinata than the figure 

 in Pal. of Niti. It varies considerably, but the shallow sinus is always 

 well marked. Our specimens are larger than the Niti ones.

Terebratula Numismalis, Lam. 



Op. Cit. p. 99, PL 21, fig. 4. 



Several specimens showing well the depressed aspect of the front of 

 the greater valve, and the well-marked concentric lines of growth. 



Ammonite-bed, Shaikh Bodeen. 



Remark. Two or three specimens not yet identified were found in 

 the same beds, together with a Waldheimia rather globular and of the 

 type of W. Impressa, Bach, of the Oxford clay. 



Bhynchonella, sp. (R. Goncinna, Sow. ?) PL IX. figs. 5, 5a. and 5b. 



See also Pal. of Niti, PL 21, fig. 8. 



It has generally, but not always, the sinus better marked than in 

 the Niti figure. Very common at Shaikh Bodeen in nearly all the 

 beds. 



Remark. Six other species of Rhynclionella have been found at 

 Shaikh Bodeen, but are not yet satisfactorily determined. 



Bryozoa. 



Eschara Asiatica, Verch. n. sp. f 



A fenestella-like Eschara, appearing in large flat and undulated 

 plates on the surface of the rocks. In the Ammonite-bed, Shaikh 

 Bodeen. 



Among the corals, a Fungia somewhat like the Fungia Coronula, 

 Groldf ., but too much worn to be identified, and a Meandrina like M. vel 

 Gomoseris Vermicularis (Edw and Haime), were found in the Am- 

 monite bed at Shaikh Bodeen.
