Brouwer's collection from Wai Miha, also includes a single large macroconch (Text-fig. 18) which closely resembles the macrocon- chiate Irianites cf. /. moermanni here described from West Irian. Because the search for the holotype is not yet concluded and since the 'quasi-topotypes' are poorly preserved, no lectotype or neotype is now designated. Comparison and dinwrphic correspondence.— The single frag- mentary specimen consisting of incomplete body chamber and part of the phragmocone, which was described by Boehm (1908, p. 330, pi. 12, fig. 3, text-fig. 3) from Babar Island, approximately 600 km southwest of New Guinea, was also studied by Jaworski (1933, p. 323, pi. 11, fig. 8, text-figs. 7a,b) and probably correctly placed in close affinity to /. nioermayuii. The photogiaphic reproductions and drawings of this important specimen are here reproduced (Text-fig. 17) . According to Jaworski who had the specimens at.
