Baculites sparsinodosus Collignon, 1969. Plaster cast of the holotype, GD 12052, the original of Collignon (1969, pi. 521 (fig. 2052)) from the Lower Campanian of gisement 302, km 14 200, Coupe Ampolypoly-Antsirasira-Behamotra (Belo sur Tsiribihina), Madagascar, x 1. D'Orbigny's (1842: 564, pi. 139 (figs 8-10)) (herein Fig. 56-8-10) sub- sequent description and illustration of B. incurvatus is better known than that of Dujardin. Again, D'Orbigny's figure shows a baculitid with a curved body chamber, and a whorl section that is ovoid on the phragmocone, but distinctly carinate on the body chamber. Two specimens in D'Orbigny's collection, pre- sumably used in his reconstruction of B. incurvatus, survive and were refigured by Kennedy (1984, pi. 33 (figs 1-3, 16-18)). Neither shows any trace of a ventral keel. We suspect that D'Orbigny's figure of B. incurvatus may have been based more on Dujardin's original figures than on his own Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original South African Museum.
