PALEONTOLOGY OF NEW YORK. 
Two specimens measure respectively 35 and 40 mm. in length, and 35 and 
38 mm. in height. 
In form this species somewhat resembles P. equilatera, but the beaks are more 
abruptly attenuate, and the radii are much stronger and more prominent, with 
comparatively wider interspaces. 
Formation and locality. In the shales of the Hamilton group, near Cumber¬ 
land, Md. 
Panenka degener, n. sp. 
PLATE XCIV, FIG. 14. 
Shell of medium size, broadly obovate ; length and height nearly equal. Pal- 
lial margin regularly curving, somewhat obliquely truncate on the posterior 
side. 
Valves regularly convex, scarcely gibbous. 
Beaks prominent, elevated and strongly incurved. 
Surface marked by extremely fine, closely arranged concentric striae, and 
by about forty-five narrow angular radii, which are less defined on the pos¬ 
terior slope. Interspaces wider than the radii. 
The specimen described has a length of about 40 mm. 
This species is distinguished by its narrow, sharp, abruptly elevated radii. 
Formation and locality. In the shales of the Hamilton group, at Pratt’s falls, 
Onondaga county, N. Y.
