General remarks on the Ciliopola of the South Indian cretaceous 
DEPOSITS. 
Tlic Ciliopocls are represented by a comparatively very small number in the 
South Indian cretaceous deposits, and their distrihution is very local. There are 
eleven genera of Cheilostomata, with altogether only seventeen species, and eight 
genera of Cyclostomata, with only ten species ; however, as four of the species do 
not admit of more than a generic determination, the total number of satisfactorily 
determinable species is twenty-three, which is slightly larger than that of the 
Brachiopoda, but very much less than that of any of the three other classes of 
Mollusca previously dealt with. 
There are only six localities whicli have yielded specimens of Ciliopods at all, 
and of these merely three, which furnished more than one. All the localities fall 
within the geographical extent of the Arrialoor group, wliich corresponds to the 
Upper Clialk, part of Turonion, Senonien and Danien, or Upper Plainer of European 
geologists, as will he seen from the following tables : —
