Stereo-Atlas of Ostracod Shells, 2:1:3 Bairdia hahni (3 of 4)
Remarks: An unusual species amongst Liassic Bairdiidae in that it is ornamented
with a coarsely developed reticulation and possesses short bulky spines
along the anterior and posteroventral margins. The spinose margins are
themselves raised and are otherwise unornamented. Internal details
poorly known.
One other ornamented Bairdia species is known from the Lower Jurassic,
B. clio Bizon (Lower Pliensbachian of northern France; Revue Micro-
paleont., 2, 1960), which is less elongate than B. hahni, has a
different outline, in particular lacking a dorsally upturned posterior,
and is ornamented with discrete tubercles rather than being reticulate.
Bairdia hahni and B. clio are closely related, the former apparently
having been developed from the latter. Reticulate species have been
described from the Triassic (e.g. H. Bolz, Senckenberg. leth. , 52,
1971) as Triebelina, Ptychobairdia , etc., but at the moment it is
preferred to place the present species in Bairdia in view of continuing
work on the Triassic species.
Associated with B . hahni is a rich Upper Pliensbachian assemblage
containing Bairdia aselfingenensis sp. nov. (see Stereo-Atlas of
Ostracod Shells, vol. 2, pt. 1, pp. 5-8, 1974) and Ogmoconcha spp. but
with a noticeable absence of cytheracean species of the type assigned
in the past to Procytheridea.

Diagnosis: An inflated species with a central depression, a well developed ridge
along the dorsal margin and an extended, tube-like posterior process.
Unornamented other than with the dorsal marginal ridge.
Remarks: This species also occurs at Reutlingen in association with Bairdia hahni
sp. nov. (see Stereo-Atlas of Ostracod Shells, vol. 2, pt. 1, pp. 1-4,
1974) and is restricted to the P. spinatum Zone (Lias delta 2) .
No other inflated, ribbed species of Bairdia is known from the Lower
Jurassic and the closest forms are from the Triassic, from which a
number of authors have described ribbed species (e.g. H. Kozur, Geol .
Palaont. Mitt. Insbruck , 1, 1971). The present species differs from
other Lower Jurassic Bairdia in being ribbed and prominently inflated,
but is otherwise morphologically typical. Associated with B. hahni in

sample as holotype, clay of P. spinatum Zone at Reutlingen.
Remarks: Distinctive late species of Ogmoconcha restricted in our material to
Lias delta 2 (P. spinatum Zone) and, as in Klingler' s record, to S
Germany.
In the earlier description (Klingler, 1962) the rim was compared to
an Arabic '3' on the right valve and an indistinct Latin 'E' on the
left valve, but in our material the median extension of the rim varied
in strength allowing the appearance of a ' C' form rim; any other
variation in configuration of the raised rim is related to valve snape
which depends upon the left over right valve overlap and sexual
dimorphism. Of 483 valves and 20 carapaces, muscle-scars visible in
only one specimen, an apparently incomplete cluster of scars, and no
reason to suppose that this is not an Ogmoconcha species.

Remarks (contd.): Sexual dimorphism recognised (cf. <3: PI. 2:3:10, figs. 1, 2 with 9:
PI. 2:3:12, fig. 2; Pi. 2:3:16, fig. 3). Ostracod Nr. 13 of Klingler
appears similar to male of present material. However, Klingler describes
Ostracod Nr. 13 from Lias gamma to delta whereas O. ambo is apparently
restricted to Lias delta 2; this range discrepancy can be accounted for
in a number of ways and it seems likely that Ostracods 12 and 13 are
dimorphs of the same species. Ogmoconcha ambo appears early in Lias
delta 2 and rapidly becomes dominant in assemblages which are notable
also for the absence of cytheracean ostracods other than Monoceratina .
Distribution: Upper part of Middle Lias (Lias delta 2, P. spinatum Zone) of SW
Germany. Two localities, in clays, at Reutlingen and Aself ingen, Baden-

Stereo-Atlas of Ostracod Shells, 2:4:19 Carbonita corrugata (3 of 4)
Diagnosis: Elongate - trapezoid; ornamentation of intermittent longitudinal
ridges .
Remarks: Distinction between C. corrugata and C. evelinae is based on differences
in ornament and lateral outline (for figures of C. evelinae see
F. W. Anderson, Bull. geol. Surv. Gt Br . , no. 32, pp. 69-121, pi. XII,
figs. 6-12, 1970). The longitudinal ornament of C. evelinae is composed
of rows of closely set puncta, whereas that of C. corrugata is made up
of distinct ridges and no punctation has been seen. C. corrugata has a
smaller height :length ratio than C. evelinae and has a more sharply
pointed posterior end. Its lateral outline is less evenly rounded.
Distribution: C. corrugata is apparently confined to beds of the Anthraconaia
modiolaris Zone (upper Westphalian A and lower Westphalian B) .
C. evelinae is typically of Anthraconauta tenuis Zone age (Westphalian
D) , although apparently identical forms have been found as low as the
upper Anthracosia similis - Anthraconaia pulchra Zone (lower
Westphalian C) . The two species do not overlap stratigraphically .

Remarks: Name: See Sandberg's comprehensive historical review of this complex
nomenclatural problem (1964, pp. 81-85). We regard both noded and
smooth forms of C. torosa as a single species. The nature of variation
and their sympatric occurrence precludes the possibility of there being
two separate subspecies. C. littoralis (Bradv) is clearly a junior
synonym, but it was perpetuated, particularlv in zoological literature,
until quite recently. Bradv himself withdrew the name in a footnote to
his paper with Robertson (1870, pp. 21, 22). Unfortunately, his
explanation seems to have been generally overlooked.

Noding: The considerable literature concerning low
salinity and noding in ostracods has been
reviewed by one of us (Kilenyi, Micropaleontology ,
vol. 18, pp. 47-63, 1972) with particular reference
to C. torosa and it is concluded that this is a
case of balanced genetic polymorphism and is not
a straightforward physiological reaction to
lowered salinity. Nodes can occur at seven
discrete sites on the valve (see text-fig. 1,
after Sandberg, 1964) . Node 2 may be the only one
developed, but it is usually accompanied by no. 1
and often by no. 3 also; these three form the
"basic triangle". Beyond this triangle, no. 6 is
the most frequent, followed by no. 4; the
remaining two nodes (nos. 5 and 7) are developed
very rarely. The total complement of 7 nodes in
this species has only been seen by us in the
Grays-Purf leet Pleistocene material (see
PI. 2:5:22, fig. 1). Nodes 4-7 are never
developed in the absence of the basic triangle.

Stereo-Atlas of Ostracod Shells, 2:5:31 Cyprideis torosa (11 of 12)
Distribution: Found in salinities of 0 .l%n ->60%o in inland ponds, lakes, lagoons,
estuaries, fjords, deltas and other marginal marine environments
down to a depth of c. 30 m. The preferred substratum appears to be
mud or sandy mud, but it sometimes lives on algae. The species is
eurythermal i.e. in water temperatures of 0° to c. 25°C.
Widespread throughout Europe (N as far as Iceland) , W and Central
Asia, and the Mediterranean region of the Middle East and N Africa.
A new record is provided by Dr. S. B. Bhatia, Punjab Univ. , from
N India [material in Brit. Mus. (Nat. Hist.)]; the specimens are
believed to be sub-Recent. Prof. G. Hartmann of Hamburg kindly sent
us a male (with soft-parts) from Lake Rudolph, Kenya, which we can
confirm as being valid. Forms assigned to C. torosa in N America,
however, are undoubtedly different species.
The stratigraphical range is somewhat more difficult to establish.
The earliest record of the species is given by Zalanyi (1913) who
described C. torosa var. lenta from the lower Sarmatian of Hungary.
There are several occurrences from the Pliocene sediments of Central
Europe and it seems to become widespread in the Pleistocene over
Europe and Asia.

Diagnosis: Labyrinthic ornament is characteristic.
Remarks: Uliczny (op. cit.) distinguished two subspecies on the basis of size and
shape differences of labyrinths. Both are recorded from the same
localities. I have found the width and the extent of labyrinths are
variable and the variation is continuous. I can not therefore agree that
there is subspecific differentiation. Posterior socket of left valve hinge •
with or without central tubercle (see PI. 2:8:52, figs. 2, 3). Frontal
scars 2 or 3; adductor scars 4, 5 or 6 with undivided or divided median

ON ORIONINA BIRETICULATA DORUK sp. nov.
by Neriman Doruk
C University of Leicester 3 England)
Orionina bireticulata sp. nov.
Holotype: Brit. Mus. (Nat. Hist.) 10 5775, d RV.
Type locality: A road section 1 km SW of Babatorun, Turkey; approx, long. 36°15'E,
lat. 36°04'N. Uppermost Miocene. Yellow sandstone with molluscan
shell fragments and foraminifera; presumed littoral.
Derivation of name: Latin "twice reticulate", referring to the second order reticulation
(see PI. 2:11:62, fig. 3).
Explanation of Plate 2:11:62
Fig. 1, d RV, ext. lat. (10 5773, 760 ym long); fig. 2, 9 RV, ext. lat. (10 5774, 735 ym
long); fig. 3, development of second order reticulation in caperate fossae (10 5774).

Stereo-Atlas of Ostracod Shells, 2:11:63 Orionina bireticulata (3 of 4)
Figured specimens: Brit. Mus. (Nat. Hist.) 10 5773 (d RV: Pi. 2:11:62, fig. 1), 10 5774
(9 RV: PI. 2:11:62, figs. 2, 3; Pi. 2:11:64, fig. 3), 10 5775 (d RV:
Pi. 2:11:64, fig.s 1, 2).
All specimens are from the base of the section at the type locality.
Diagnosis: Carinate with 8-10 longitudinal ridges; reticulate between carinae.
Sola caperate; in some fossae caperation develops into a second order
reticulation (see PI. 2:11:62, fig. 3). Caudal process well developed.
Remarks: Median adductor scars undivided (see Pi. 2:11:64, fig. 2) or both
divided; two frontal scars. Sexual dimorphism: males more elongate
(cf. d: PI. 2:11:62, fig. 1, with 9: Pi. 2:11:62, fig. 2).
Distribution: Known so far only from the type locality, Turkey.
