Shape — Conical-gradate shell, having whorls with nearly median angulation. Ramp steep, feebly convex in juvenile stage but flat on last whorl with narrow, concave belt above selenizone. Selenizone itself narrow, initially flat then becomes feebly concave. Outer face rather wide, flat on juvenile shell but feebly concave on last whorl. Periphery rounded angular, base convex and narrowly phaneromphalous. No peristome part observable. Sculpture — Fine network of collabral and spiral threads covers whorls and the base with granules at crossing points. On outer face and base, spiral compo­nents of network predominant. Remarks — The granulate ornament of Wortheniopsis (Sisenna) hierlat^ensis n. sp. reminds that of W. (S.)pinguis (J. A. EUDES-DESLONGCHAMPS, 1849), however, the spiral elements of the latter species are much denser and finer. Furthermore, Wortheniopsis (Sisenna) hierlat^ensis n. sp. differs from W. (S.) pinguis also in the shell shape; the latter species has cyrtoconoidal while the former one possesses simple conical shells. The position of the selenizone/angulation is lower in W. (S.) pinguis, i.e. the ramp is wider and the outer face narrower than in Wortheniopsis (Sisenna) hierlat^ensis n. sp. Distribution — Hierlatz Alpe, Sinemurian (Oxynotum Zone).

Wortheniopsis (Sisenna) jancsii n. sp. (Figure 25) Holotype — HGM J .08.4.1. (Figure 25: A-D); paratypes: HGM J. 08.5.1-4. (specimens in Figure 25: E-P). Type locality — Úrkút, Csárdahegy (Bakony Mts). Type strata — Lower(?) Sinemurian Hierlatz Limestone. Name — Dedicated to the author's elder son, János SZABÓ (jun.). Diagnosis — Feebly coeloconoidal shell with distinctly developed angulation on post-juvenile whorls; ramp feebly convex or flat; last whorls prominently expanding; periphery subangular, base convex and narrowly phaner­omphalous; ornament composed of spiral cords and threads, crossed by collabral threads resulting in network ornament; spiral cords predominate o\ r er collabral threads at periphery and on base. Material — Twelve specimens of various preservation; all with remnants of the shell (HGM collection).

Shape — Feebly coeloconoidal shell of convex whorls, having distinctly developed angulation in post-juvenile stages. Ramp feebly convex on early whorls but flat on latest ones.
