Suter, H. 1915 Revision of the Tertiary Mollusca of New Zealand, based on type material. Part II. Wellington: New Zealand Geological Survey. New Zealand Geological Survey paleontological bulletin 3 69 p.

Abstract: I have been enabled to continue the revision of Hutton's type specimens. Of the Canterbury Museum collection 95 species, and of the Otago Museum collection 21 species, have been examined; furthermore, six species described by Hutton in his catalogue of 1873 have been redescribed, three of T.W. Kirk's and two of Hector's type specimens have also been dealt with. Notes will also be found on type specimens of Mr E. de C. Clarke, Professor P. Marshall, and Dr J. Allan Thomson. In addition, copies of the diagnoses of three Tertiary shells, described by me in the ''Proceedings of the Malacological Society'', London, are added. A few figures drawn after the type specimens by the late Mr Buchanan are reproduced; a number of type specimens have been photographed; finally, of a number of small specimens, I have made line-drawings for reproduction.
