Orthoceras parallelum Rome, Mammal, pl.511. Fig.712,
May be same thing as my
Large Cymatostata, and as
parallelum of Hall if several folds
+ small mid ridge are due to
crushing, shows tendency toward
rhythmic folds.
Pl. 82 fig. 74, parallelum is
a much better specimen than a
figure suggests - Cymatostata
marked vertically as so to be more
convinicing. Palaezoic,
Mordidysus aurantius
Pl. 82 fig. 3 c. (Bradman)
Like any Cummings from
Channel, no sharp midline
ridge;
Mordidysus curtus, Girty.
pl. 81 fig. 4,
Dactyrodonta like those I
collected.
No natural ridge.
(45)
Mordidysus curtus, pl. 82 fig. 2 a
Girvine = Small Oterinea dermis
fairly well.
at any rate it looks like Oterinea
to me at break slices and as much
of structure as one left.
And then to make the striae go obliquely
forward as well as upward, and
return to central ridge they go
vertically upward.
Diphyspira athreniata. sharp, angularity
relations but no detail in fig 2 a,
pl. 83. I think fairly.
Olenus music (Clothospira) outcrop
pl. 83 fig. 3 d = genuine.
fig 3 c with inferior angula
tilt with slight bend on the inside of
greatest lateral extension of shell =
partially genuine but needed to
watch. Notice angulation half
way down inner slope of last whorl,
Camarospora petelloformis good
like mine with median angularity
trim. Palaezoic, Byssinoclae.
Mordidysus Mordidysus H-Mantma
dalmadella Sphydromines
