LOWER CRETACEOUS DEPOSITS CALIFORNIA AND OREGON

156 lower chetaceous deposits ijf california and oregon
Neumayr and TJhlig. The species IB represented in the collections of the California
Academy of Sciences by a well-preserved fragment and & partial mold of the same,
from which the figures were made. The holotype (Calif. Acad. Sci. type Coll.) has
the following dimensions; greatest diameter, 75 mm.; width of umbilicus, 33 mm.;
height of whorl, 25 mm.; width of whorl, 36 mm,; umbilical ratio, 0.44:1.
This example was found at Locality 113 (Calif. Acad. Sci.) and was presented to
the California Academy of Sciences with many other fossils by Dr. E. J. Broad of San
Francisco, for whom the Species is named in recognition of this courtesy and of his
interest in the work of the Academy of Sciences.
A small fragmentary example of this genus, possibly representing this species, was
found on McCarthy Creek, Tehama County, in "Zone X,' J with Neotsomites jenkensi.

Shell small, spheroidal, coronate, with deep and narrow umbilicus; section of
whorl reniform, broader than high; umbilical walls abrupt, surmounted by small,
elongated bullae, scarcely tuberculate; sides densely coatate, the costae arising
on the umbilical wall, inclining forward, forming the umbilical bullae; smaller
costae branching from these in groups of two or three, crossing the periphery without
interruption. The holotype (Calif. Acad. Sci. type Coil.) was obtained at Locality
113 (Calif. Acad. Sci.) in the Hamlin-Broad tone, where it was associated with
Polyptychic* lecontei, Simbirskites broodi, and many other Paskenta species. The
same species was found on McCarthy Creek, Tehama County, associated with Ntoeomitc*
jenkinei, Thurmannia pask&iloe, Aucella nuciformii Pavlow, and other
species of upper-middle Valanginian age.

Shell large, discoidal, flattened on the sides, though little compressed; rather
broadly umbilicate, the umbilicus having abrupt walls, rounded on tbe border; sides
closely costate with branching ribs; umbilical ribs arising on the walls, or at the
suture, inclining slightly backward, but on the umbilical border describing a broad
curve, above which they divide a little below the middle of the side, inclining then
strongly forward; above the middle of the side re-dividing into two or three smaller
costae, all crossing the periphery without interruption; suture lines not fully known;
the relatively large first lateral lobe resembling that of NeocTatpediles tenuis (von
Koenen). The holotype (Calif. Acad, Sci, type Coll.) consists of a fragment, about
a quarter of a whorl, and a mold of the same specimen, including a large part of the
umbilicus. This, and two largcr^&nd mors complete, but somewhat crushed, examplea
were found on Eagle Creek, near Ono, Shasta County, in the Ono zone in the
basal beds of the Horsetown group. The larger example measures 8 inches in diameter
and has a maximum thickness of 1.75 inches. The spccies appears to be closely
