It appears to connect morphologically with T. soutoni, described below. Differences between T. collignoni and T. texanus are distinct in densityof ribbing in typical forms, but become obscure when comparing T. collignoniwith T. texanus var. hispanica. Here crenulation of the keel may be of assistancein differentiating between the species. T. quinquenodosus (Figs 102-103) is a species with similar ribbing andcoiling, but differs in that tuberculation is generally clavate in all the rows. 134 ANNALS OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN MUSEUM. I f.
