    Palaeozygopleura obesa n.sp. PI. 16 figs 1-4 Palaeozygopleura sp. Yoo, 1988: 238, table 2. Description. Shell small, high-spired cyrtoconoid, anomphalous. Protoconch of about 1Y2 smooth whorls, tending to be globose. Teleoconch of about 7 whorls with whorl profile of the upper surface flattened and the lower surface slightly convex; suture shallow, collabral ribs evenly spaced across the whorl and slightly opisthocyrt with transition from protoconch to teleoconch not distinct. Aperture incomplete (broken specimen). Types. Holotype (F78477) and 2 figured paratypes (F78478 -9). There are 14 additional specimens (F78476) from the type locality. Type locality. 150 m west of 'Marohn' homestead, on the Scone-Gundy roadside, 4 km south-west of Gundy, NSW (Locality 28). Stratigraphic position. In bioclastic limestone, upper part of the Dangarfield Formation. Additional material. 4 specimens from 'Rangari' area (Localities 15 and 18) and 26 from various horizons at Glenbawn (Localities 29-32). Geographic distribution. 'Rangari' to Glenbawn. [table omitted] Geological age. Middle to late Toumaisian. Etymology. Derived from the Latin obesus meaning swollen. Remarks. This is only species referred to Palaeozygopleura, characterised by its high-spired cyrtoconoid shell with smooth globose protoconch. With the additional specimens recovered between 'Rangari' and Glenbawn, Palaeozygopleura sp. Yoo (1988) is here named obesa.Published as part of Yoo, E.

    Donaldina minutissima n.sp. PI. 21 figs 1-6 Donaldina sp. Yoo, 1988: 238 (table 2), figs 110-111. Description. Shell minute, slender, high-spired turriculate anomphalous. Protoconch of ll1z smooth whorls with deviated spire, the transition from protoconch to teleoconch indistinct orthocline. Teleoconch of about 8 convex whorls with early whorls smooth and later whorls ornamented with 6 evenly spaced spiral cords; whorl profile more or less symmetrically rounded; suture deep, well impressed. Aperture oval, columellar lip slightly arcuate; base rounded. [table omitted] Types. Holotype (F78517) and 3 figured paratypes (F7851O, 78518). Type locality. 150 m west of 'Marohn' homestead, on the Scone-Gundy roadside, 4 km south-west of Gundy, NSW (Locality 28). Stratigraphic position. In bioclastic limestone, upper part of the Dangarfield Formation. Geographic distribution. Type locality only. Geological age. Late Tournaisian. Etymology. Derived from the Latin minutissima meaning extremely small. Remarks. Six specimens recovered for this study are sufficiently well preserved to justify basing a new species. This new species resembles Donaldina filosa Yoo and Pseudoaclisina microspirulata n.sp. in having a minute, slender and tall shell with fine spiral ornament, but it differs in having a more highly deviated protoconch.Published as part of Yoo, E.
