II.—On the Occurrence of an Indian Jurassic Shell, Parallelodon Egertonianus, in Somali-land, Eastern Africa

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

Mrs. E. Lort-Phillips, during her journey in Africa, collected some well-preserved Arca-like shells from a riverbed at Bihin, in Somali-land, which have been entrusted to me for determination. The specimens, belonging to one species, are of various sizes, quite black in colour, and covered in places with a lightish-brown matrix.
