Abstract A new species of inarticulate brachiopods, Discinisca zapfei sp.n., is established for specimens collected by the late Professor Helmuth ZAPFE from the Zlambach Formation (Upper Triassic, Norian to Rhaetian) of the Northern Calcareous Alps (Austria). The collection, although small, offers a good insight into the morpho- logy of both the dorsal and the brachial valve of the shells, as well as into their mode of growth in clusters. The primary shell coloration is preserved, probably due to a rapid burial (? tempestite) of the clustered brachiopods in the living stage. A review and/or re-examination of other Triassic disciniscan brachiopods indicates that the newly established species, Discinisca zapfei sp.n., is closer to certain Paleogene-Neogene and/or present-day species than to any of the earlier described Triassic forms. -

SUMMARY: The present-day brachiopods from the Mediterranean Sea were thoroughly described by nineteenth-century workers, to the extent that Logan’s revision in 1979 listed the same 11 species as Davidson, almost 100 years earlier. Since then recent discoveries, mainly from cave habitats inaccessible to early workers, have increased the number of species to 14. The validity of additional forms, which are either contentious or based on scanty evidence, is evaluated here. Preferred substrates and approximate bio-depth zones of all species are given and their usefulness for paleoecological reconstruction is discussed. A previous dearth of material from the eastern Mediterranean has now been at least partially remedied by new records from the coasts of Cyprus, Israel, Egypt, and, in particular, Lebanon and the southern Aegean Sea. While 11 species (79 % of the whole fauna) have now been recorded from the eastern basin, Terebratulina retusa, Argyrotheca cistellula, Megathiris detruncata and Platidia spp. -

A Note on Dallina Septigera (Loven), (Brachiopoda, Dallinidae)
J. mar. bioi. Ass. U.K. (1960) 39, 91-99 91 Printed in Great Britain A NOTE ON DALLINA SEPTIGERA (LOVEN), (BRACHIOPODA, DALLINIDAE) By D. ATKINS,D.Sc. From the Plymouth Laboratory (Plate I and Text-figs. 1-5) The discovery of a homoeomorph, Pallax dalliniformis, of Dallina septigera (Loven) dredged with that species (Atkins, 1960) and, it is believed, some• times confused with it, certainly by Fischer & Oehlert (1891), has made a brief redescription desirable. During the present work more than a hundred D. septigera of shell length 5-31 mm have been obtained, and most of them examined internally. The original description in Latin-without figures-of Dallina septigera (= Terebratula septigera) was by Loven in 1846 (p. 183). Unfortunately his description does not now clearly separate his species from Pallax dallini• formis, except perhaps his failure to mention the presence of dental plates, pedicle collar and spiculation. It is doubtful how much weight can be attached to this, for on the same page he failed to mention the presence of dental plates in Macandrevia cranium. He gave the length as 28 mm, width as 21·5 mm and depth as 17 mm. The Stockholm Natural History Museum, the most likely Museum to possess Loven's type specimen, unfortunately does not have it, and it is probable that he did not designate one. The Museum, however, does possess old collections of dried shells of this species from Norway and the ~orth Sea, which Loven probably studied. Through the kindness of Dr H.Mutvei a large specimen from these was loaned to me: he stated that it is not known with certainty whether it was collected before or after 1846-the date of publication of Loven's paper. -

EMIG Abstract: The first descriptions of Lingula were made from then extant specimens by three famous French scientists: BRUGUIÈRE, CUVIER, and LAMARCK. The genus Lingula was created in 1791 (not 1797) by BRUGUIÈRE and in 1801 LAMARCK named the first species L. anatina, which was then studied by CUVIER (1802). In 1812 the first fossil lingulids were discovered in the Mesozoic and Palaeozoic strata of the U.K. -
