In STOLICZKA (1861) original material three specimens have been found under the name "Turbo Hoernesi'. However, they seem to belong to two different species. Two specimens have shells without basal ornament but a last whorl fragment has strong spiral carinae and the shape of the growth-lines is also different (see also below, and Plate V: 22 and 24). Cirrus sp. (Plate V: 24) — A single last whorls fragment of a Cirrus specimen (NM), which has a different sculpture than the above species. On this fragment, the costae of the whorls continue to the foot of the columella. There are also four carinae on the base, which are lacking from Cirrus hoernesi (STOLICZKA, 1861), and the growth-lines are sigmoidal. These differences suggest the probability of belonging to another species. In STOLICZKA's paper (1861. p. 176, Taf. II, Fig. 14.), "Turbo Hoernesi" was created from characters of two specimens, belonging to probably two different species. Discohelix orbis (REUSS, 1852) — A single (MTM) but characteristic, small fragment of a large (adult) whorl has been found. Strong, rib-like growth-wrinkles cover all visible outer surface of the fragment. Outer angulations are irregularly corrugated. Single specimen has been found in STOLICZKA's (NH) collection. The matrix indicates its occurrence in the Hierlatz Limestone (Sinemurian) not in the Late Pliensbachian fissure-filling limestone. Anoptychia crenata (STOLICZKA, 1861) (Plate V: 26-27) — Single specimen with manganese-oxide coating is available in STOLICZKA's (NH) collection. It is a rather well preserved, feebly cyrtoconical shell without earliest whorls and peristome. The shell represents a medium sized, rather high spired species of Anoptychia. Whorls are evenly convex with a suture in moderately deep canal. Base is anomphalous and meets the last whorl surface in a rounded angle. Earliest juvenile whorls bear periodically repeating, dense, suture-to-suture, prosocline riblets that become feebly parasigmoidal on subsequent whorls then gradually vanish (first from the subsutural region). Five ribbed post-protoconch whorls are visible; three spiral threads appear on the second one. There are granulae at crossing points of the riblets and the threads. With weakening of the riblets, additional spiral threads develop below the periphery

7 of whorls and fine lines appear on the "ramp". Threads cover also the base. Discohehx reticulata STOLICZKA, 1861 (Plate V: 25) — Shells of this small and extremely rare Discohelix species are strongly flattened, their shape resembles to coins. The width of the whorl cross-section is almost double of their height. Marked keel runs on both outer angulations of the whorls. The last and the penultimate whorls are covered by periodically repeating riblets, starting from nodulae of the keels and gradually weaken towards the upper (inner) suture. Corrugation appeared much earlier than riblets, which developed gradually from the nodulae of the keels. The riblets reach the upper (adaxial) suture only from the second half of the penultimate whorl. Brachiopods Pietteia (Trietteia ?) fischeri (STOLICZKA, 1861) (Plate V: 28—30) — Four fragmentary specimens of a medium sized aporrhaid species with turriculate spire of cyrtoconical outline are available. Their apex is not preserved but peristome fragments on two specimens are indicative of a species, having three digits. Whorls are slighdy convex and bear a median carina with parabolic nodes. The number of these nodes seems rather variable: 10—12 on the penultimate whorl of a specimen and 18-20 on another shell. The nodes are lacking from the last whorl. The specimens belong to STOLICZKA's (NH) collection, their preservation and infilling indicate embedding in a limestone, strongly different from that of the other gastropod specimens, studied here.
