Abstract
Collection details are summarised for two fossil turtles from New Zealand, one from the Teurian (Paleocene) Amuri Limestone, Marlborough, and the other from the Whaingaroan (Early Oligocene) McDonald Limestone, Otago. The identity of none of the other supposed reptiles recorded from the New Zealand Tertiary has been proven.Keywords
