A specimen from the Lincoln Creek Formation represents a third provincial Oligocene occurrence of this species in Washington. Shell material is well preserved, but the specimens are broken and crushed or distorted. In addition to the broad shallow anal sinus, the species exhibits a characteristic sharply keeled periphery and tabular whorl profile. The body whorl is divided by a second weaker carination that does not appear on the spire whorls which are parallel to the axis of coiling anterior to the periphery. Material exaviined. — Three specimens. Stratigraphic distribution. — Surculites sp. is restricted to the provincial Oligocene Turritella porterensis and Echinophoria rex zones (Text-figure 6). Figured specimen. —VS>'NU 216414. (USGS M1729. Lincoln Creek Formation). Other localities. — Twin River Formation: UCMP A3690.
