Abstract

Specimens of the gastropod genus Donaldina are numerous throughout marine units of the Pottsville, Allegheny, and Conemaugh Groups in the Appalachian Basin. Six species of Donaldina from thirteen marine units are described. New species proposed are Donaldina quadroliratus, from Pottsville and Allegheny units, and Donaldina superclivis, from Conemaugh units.
