Description. This species occurs in low numbers in the assemblages from the Chalk at 840 and 810 feet depth (basal Cenomanian) in the Fetcham Mill bore. Although a number of specimens were available for study, the majority proved unsuitable as a result of distortion or unfortunate orientation : the figured specimen was the only one capable of full study. It was thus not possible to confirm details of the apical structure. Plate i' is elongate and corresponds to the apical prolongation of the sulcus. At least two other apical plates appear to be present : no anterior intercalary plate could be distinguished. Six precingular and six postcingular plates are present ; no posterior intercalary plate was distinguished. The antapex is occupied by a single plate. The cingulum forms a strong laevorotatory spiral whose two ends differ in antero- posterior position by three times its width. There appears to be no separation into cingular plates. The sulcus is narrow and extends to the Fig. 36. Heliodinium voigti Alberti. Tabulation. Left, ventral view right, dorsal view (plate 3" is missing). x c.
