The genus Pupa, a land air-breathing gasteropod, and the genus Cyclas, a fresh-water bivalve, and the genus Cypris, a little crustacean bivalve, all of which are still represented by living species, are found. Of course, marine species, both Lamellibranchs and Gasteropods, are abundant. Some figures of these are given below. Among Cephalopods, Orthoceratites still continue, but in diminished number, variety, and size. Goniatites, introduced in the Devonian,.
