Australia D--Rhynchonella croydonensis, Eth. fil. Up. Cretaceous. Queensland ] The marine Jurassic beds of W. Australia, as at Shark Bay and Greenough River, contain certain _Rhynchonellae_ allied to European species, as _R. variabilis_ (Fig. 88 A), and _R._ cf. _solitaria_. =Lower Cretaceous Brachiopods.--= The Lower Cretaceous or Rolling Downs Formation of Queensland has yielded a fair number of Brachiopods, principally from Wollumbilla,--as _Terebratella davidsoni_ (Fig. 88 B), (?) _Argiope wollumbillensis_, (?) _A. punctata_, _Rhynchonella rustica_, _R. solitaria_, _Discina apicalis_ and _Lingula subovalis_. From beds of similar age in Central South Australia and the Lake Eyre Basin _Lingula subovalis_ (Fig. 88 C), and _Rhynchonella eyrei_ have been recorded; the latter has been compared with a species (_R. walkeri_) from the Middle Neocomian of Tealby in Yorkshire. =Upper Cretaceous Brachiopod.--= A solitary species of the Brachiopoda occurs in the Upper Cretaceous of Australia, namely, _Rhynchonella croydonensis_ (Fig. 88 D) of the Desert Sandstone of the Croydon Gold-fields and Mount Angas, Queensland. =Cainozoic Brachiopods.--= The Brachiopoda of the Cainozoic or Tertiary strata of Australia and New Zealand are well represented by the genera _Terebratula_, _Magellania_, _Terebratulina_, _Terebratella_, _Magasella_ and _Acanthothyris_. In the Balcombian or Oligocene of southern Australia occur the following:--_Terebratula tateana_, _Magellania corioensis_, _M. garibaldiana_ and _Magasella compta_ (Figs. 89 A, D); and most of these range into the next stage, the Janjukian, whilst some extend even to the Kalimnan. _Terebratulina suessi_, Hutton sp. (= _T. scoulari_, Tate) ranges through the Balcombian and Janjukian, but is most typical of the Janjukian beds in Victoria: it also occurs in the Oamaru Series of New Zealand (= Janjukian). _Acanthothyris squamosa_ (Fig. 89 F) is typical of the Janjukian of southern Australia, and it occurs also in the Pareora beds of the Broken River, New Zealand. The latter are green, sandy, fossiliferous strata immediately succeeding the Oamaru stone of the Hutchinson Quarry beds. _A. squamosa_ is said to be still living south of Kerguelen Island. _Magellania insolita_ is a Victorian species which is also found in the Oamaru Series of New Zealand.
