ADDITIONS TO THE FOSSIL DECAPOD CRUSTACEAN FAUNA OF NEW-ZEALAND

Five new species of decapod crustaceans are described from New Zealand: Glyphea stilwelli, from the Paleocene of Otago, Homolodromia novaezelandica and Torynomma planata, from die Late Cretaceous near Hawke's Bay, Calappilia maxwelli, from the Miocene of Kaipara Harbour, and Actinotocarcinus maclauchlani, from the Miocene of Motunau Beach. The sternum of Hemioon novozelandicus Glaessner and the ventral surface of a male specimen of Miograpsus papaka Fleming are illustrated for the first time. Torynomma flemingi Glaessner is noted from a new locality in Northland. The occurrence of Glyphea stilwelli represents the first record of a Paleocene decapod in New Zealand and the first record of that genus in the Paleocene.
