BELOXORHYNCHIDiE.

As pointed out by K. A. von Zittel, Handb. Palseont. vol. iii. 
(1888), p. 266, the imperfect head of an undetermined large species 
of Belonorhynchus from the Rhoetic of Seefeld, Tyrol, is also described 
as Teleoscturus tenuistriatus , R. Finer, Sitzungsb. k. Akad. Wiss. 
TVien, math.-naturw. Cl. vol. lvi. (1867), pt. i. p. 905, pi. iii. 
Fragments of another undetermined species from the Trias of 
Monte Pettine, near Giffoni, Province of Salerno, Italy, now in the 
Museum of the University of Naples, are described by 0. G. Costa, 
Atti R. Accad. Sci. Napoli, vol. vi. Append. (1862), under the names 
of Giffonus deperditus ( loc . cit. p. 26, pi. vi. fig. 2) and Acipenser ? 
(ibid. p. 44, pi. vii. figs. 6 a, b). Others are described as Palceo- 
niseus ? (Atti Accad. Pontan. vol. vii. 1856, pp. 36, 358, pi. iv. 
fig. 5). These are referred to Belonorhynchus sp. by F. Bassani, 
Fossili Schisti Bitumin. Monte Pettine (Mem. Soc. Ital. Sci. ser. 3, 
vol. ix. no. 3, 1892), pp. 5-7. y v>J L L ^

' An indefinable genus known only by detached teeth and frag¬ 
ments of jaws. The teeth are enamelled only in their distal 
portion, and their base is sometimes feebly plicated. The bones are 
ornamented chiefly with fine tuberculations, though in part striated. 
The fish to which these remains belong may be generically 
identical with Belonorhynchus, as suggested by Reis (Geogn. Jahresh. 
1891, p. 149) ; but until proof be forthcoming, it seems inadvisable 
to change the nomenclature.
