| Abstract |
The finding of a small palaeontological collection of Giuseppe Seguenza in Lecce (Apulia) is herein reported. The collection was most probably given by Seguenza himself to Cosimo De Giorgi (1842-1922), for the Natural History Museum he founded in the school building dedicated to Oronzo Gabriele Costa, were the collection is housed. The material consists of 92 lots, mainly molluscs, brachiopods and corals from the Plio-Pleistocene deposits cropping out in the Messina and Reggio Calabria area. The most interesting material is represented by brachiopod, coral and cirriped species described by Seguenza, and a poorly known deep-sea gastropod, Calliostoma bullatum (Philippi, 1844), herein illustrated and commented. |
