tapering towards the aboral end and the less impressed sutures. Several 
specimens of the species are present in the Kulnura Bore, but they are 
smaller than the Queensland ones. 
Occurrence. — Holotype (Comm. Pal. Coll. No. 276) and Paratype 
(Comm. Pal. Coll. No. 277) : Cattle Creek below Waterfall, 14 miles 
S.E. of Springsure, Queensland (Lower Bowen Series). 
Other Localities. — New South Wales. Upper Marine Series : 
Kulnura Bore, at 3,846 feet and 3,884 feet. 
Genus DENT ALINA D’Orbigny, 1826. 
Dentalina grayi sp. nov., (PI. III., Fig. 8). 
Holotype. — Test small, elongate, slender, gently curved and tapering, 
with greatest width in apertural chamber. Chambers seven, slightly 
inflated and gradually increasing in size towards apertural end. Sutures 
distinct, straight, depressed. Aperture terminal, radiate. Length, 
0.75 mm. ; greatest width, 0.17 mm. 
Observations. — Dentalina grayi is described from a single well- 
preserved specimen. It differs from D. bradyi Spandel, recorded by 
Chapman and Howchin from a limestone at Wollong, New South Wales, 
in its more slender appearance. The species has been named after 
Dr. K. Washington Gray, who collected the material during his 
investigations in the Springsure area. 
Occurrence. — Holotype (Comm. Pal. Coll. No. 278) : Lower part of 
the exposure on Argus’s Selection, Springsure, Queensland (Middle 
Bowen Series.). 
Genus FRONDICULARIA Defrance, 1826. 
Frondicularia parri sp. nov., (PI. III., Figs. 9, 10, 11). 
Holotype. — Test elongate, compressed, with greatest width near 
apertural end ; earlier portion tapering sharply, sides of later portion 
almost parallel. Aboral and subacute. Peripheral margin rounded. 
Chambers ten. Sutures distinct, marked by clear shell matter, acutely 
arched along medium line. Wall ornamented with distinct irregular, 
longitudinal raised costae, extending over whole of test. Aperture small, 
terminal. Length, 0.80 mm. ; greatest width, 0.28 mm. 
Paratypes . — (a) Test shorter than holotype and tapering more 
evenly. The costae are irregular and slightly coarser, with a tendency 
to divide. Chambers distinct. Sutures strongly arched along median 
line. Length, 0.64 mm. ; greatest width, 0.30 mm. 
(b) Test broad, widest near aperture, and tapering strongly to 
aboral end. Sutures arched but obscured by surface ornament. Chambers 
also obscured. Costae coarse with a tendency to anastomose from the 
median line. Length, 0.77 mm. ; greatest width, 0.42 mm.
