This is preserved in cross-section at a point estimated to be approximately halfway between the orbit and the anterior tip of the rostrum. The best-preserved components are the less premaxilla and nasal. The latter is exceedingly small and forms a right angle in cross-section, forming dorsal and ventral rami. It is likely that the section is close to its anteriormost extent, and is largely, but not entirely, covered by the premaxilla externally. The premaxilla shows a well-developed premaxillary fossa, defined dorsally by a sharp ridge and the alveolar groove. Medial to the alveolar wall, there is an element with an oval cross-section inferred to be a vomer. The right premaxilla and nasal have been abraded at a lower angle and are thus more difficult to interpret. Ventral to the less upper jaw ramus, there is a semicircular structure, which is likely to correspond to the less mandibular ramus. A notch in its lateral margin is interpreted as the dentary fossa, but aside from this, no anatomical information can be extracted. The rostrum posterior to the cross-section described above has been abraded at an angle near to the horizontal plane. The palate is exposed in dorsal view and appears as a series of elongate, roughly parallel elements. This makes the interpretation of the palate difficult. Posterior to this cluster of bones, however, a broken fragment of the right nasal is preserved, which runs at a slightly different angle to the palate. The nasal fragment must come from the portion anterior to the excavatio internasalis, because it shows a vertically oriented internasal suture and a convex external surface ( -Fig. 8A, B +Fig. 8A, B ). The second skull section (ii) is a posterior section through the rostrum in the region of the external nares. Both nasals are preserved in cross-section. The right one has shissed slightly anteriorly relative to the less, such that they are not in articulation nor do they show the same anatomical structures. The right nasal is from a cut anterior to the excavatio internasalis and shows a vertically oriented internasal suture and convex external surface. The less nasal is sectioned across the external narial opening and shows the development of a prominent lateral wing roofing the narial opening. It forms a convex bulge dorsally, indicating a well-developed excavatio internasalis. Both nasals show a compact outer cortex and an extremely spongiose inner surface. Ventral to the nasals is a pair of dorsoventrally deep elements, which are laterally flat and medially concave, forming a tube. These elements articulate with the nasals via a weakly ossified connection and are interpreted as the vomers. On the right, a smaller quadrangular element is preserved, potentially representing the palatine but sectioned almost parallel to the long axis. On the less is a plate-like element, here interpreted as the less palatine in cross-section, and lateral to this is a hatchet-shaped element, potentially part of the maxilla or nasal ( -Fig. 8C, D +Fig. 8C, D ). - + Figure 8.

A round element preserved laterodorsally might represent the right jugal in cross-section, although this is uncertain. The mandible consists of the surangular dorsally and laterally, forming the roof of the Meckelian canal and approximately one-third of the lateral surface of the lower jaw. Ventral and internal to the surangular is the angular, which forms the entire medial wall of the Meckelian canal. The angular forms a robust ventromedial articulation with the splenial. The medial surface of the splenial appears to be pierced by several foramina, which appear as bony projections in section. The dentary has not been identified, although a thin fragment of bone between the lateral and dorsal portions of the surangular might represent its posterior extent. Additional elements exposed ventrolateral to the splenial might represent palatal elements ( -Fig. 8E, F +Fig. 8E, F ).

Dermatocranium: Additional skull bones are preserved (e.g. the less lacrimal, less sclerotic ring, and less nasal). Despite the quality of preservation appearing to be fairly good, the limited exposure of many of these bones makes identification difficult ( -Fig. 3A, B +Fig. 3A, B ). The lacrimal is relatively anteroposteriorly broad. One area of particular interest is the region surrounding the external nares. Although preservation of this region makes interpretation difficult, it appears that the maxilla is dorsoventrally deep, with a broad dorsal process forming an anteroposteriorly elongated contact with the nasal. Although the position and shape of the posterior external narial opening cannot be discerned, this configuration seems likely to result in the complete subdivision of the narial opening. The subnarial process of the premaxilla appears to extend almost as far posteriorly as the nasomaxillary pillar. The anterior maxilla has a short exposure in lateral view relative to the inferred length of the nares ( -Fig. 3A, B +Fig. 3A, B ). Dentition: The maxilla is dentigerous, and several teeth are preserved, although unfortunately, none preserve the enamel.

According to the size of the exposed vertebral series and its topographic location in the skeleton, the vertebral segment is likely to represent the posterior dorsal and anterior preflexural caudal vertebral column. The anteriormost vertebrae have a width or height-to-length ratio of 2.2, which decreases rapidly along the exposed length of the preflexural vertebrae and suggests a relatively low degree of vertebral regionalization.

Thin, of moderate size (adult diameter up to +14 mm +), wider than high, but spire height variable (H/D 0.73–0.86); spire whorls rounded, sometimes weakly shouldered; periphery a little below mid-whorl, rounded or weakly angled; sculpture fine, predominantly spiral; base rounded, narrowly umbilicate; teleoconch of up to 7.0 whorls. First teleoconch whorl with three narrow, spiral lirae ( +Fig. 27A +), broadening during second whorl and increasing in number through intercalation of intermediaries; subsequent sculpture of low, close-set, spiral lirae separated by narrower intervals; lirae often alternating in strength as intermediaries arise; axial sculpture initially weak, close-set, microscopic threads only, later whorls with fine, regular, close-set, collabral pliculae, and irregular growth-lines; basal sculpture of fewer, broader, flat-topped lirae separated by narrow incised striae, axial pliculae much less distinct; lirae more close-set within umbilicus; umbilicus relatively narrow, its rim rounded, distinctly thickened and rendered pliculate by growth-lines; a strong funicle within umbilicus, above which is a deep sulcus underlying insertion on penultimate whorl. Aperture roundly quadrate; peristome interrupted in parietal region; base of columella considerably thickened at termination of umbilical rim with a second thickening above this at end of funicle, surface of thickenings microscopically granular; outer lip simple; interior smooth and weakly nacreous. + + +COLOUR +. Colour and pattern highly variable; ground colour commonly mottled in pastel shades of pink and yellow-brown, with olive-green subsutural and peripheral blotches or axial flames and with white-flecked capillary lines on spiral lirae; blotches sometimes maroon, sometimes dark green; other specimens more uniformly coloured or with fine white and pink mottling or with bold spiral bands of colour; some juveniles whitish with distinctive pattern of three spiral bands of squarish brown blotches, one below suture, one at periphery and one on base ( +Fig. 26S–T +); umbilical region pale and unpatterned, but reflected end of umbilical funicle olive-green, greyish-green or olive-brown, occasionally reddish, particularly in Chesterfield-Bellona Plateau material; funicle itself also often of the same colour. + + +DIMENSIONS +. +Holotype +, height +10.7 mm +, diameter +13.6 mm +(= largest specimen). + + +PROTOCONCH +( +Fig. 27B +). Typically umboniine, diameter ± 170–185 µm; apical beak present and confluent with terminal lip; apical bulb sculptured with oblique and subspiral threads creating an irregular quadrate network; terminal lip weakly convex. + + +OPERCULUM +( +Fig. 27C–D +). Corneous; multispiral, but with relatively few whorls; whorl overlap narrow, peripheral fringe not obviously striate; surface lacking spiral microsculpture. + + +RADULA +( +Fig. 27E–F +). Formula ∞+ (1)+ 5+1+ 5+(1) +∞, with ± 35–40 transverse rows of teeth; teeth of central field reduced, lacking shafts and cusps; rachidian base-plate broadly trigonal with blunt anterior edge; base-plates of inner lateral teeth expanded and bluntly rounded basally, outer anterior edge somewhat raised and ridge-like; outer laterals less trigonal and more elongate. Innermost marginal transitional, with reduced shaft and cusp; other marginal teeth well developed with strongly recurved cusp; cusps of inner marginal teeth with a large bluntly lanceolate central denticle bearing a robust pointed denticle at its outer base and a minute denticle at inner base (usually not visible due to tooth overlap); marginals 3–10 with largest cusps; cusps progressively smaller thereafter, the outermost ones with finely pectinate margins. + + + +Fig. 26. + +Sericominolia lifuana +( +Fischer, 1878 +) + +(A–D: MHNBx 2004.TY.184; E–T: MNHN). +A–D +.

Within the lagoon it occurs largely in the outer regions, from the intermediary reefs and islands to the barrier reef.

Type locality indicated in pink. + + + +The material available, comprising ±1000 specimens, indicates that there is considerable variation in shell proportions and that these also change with growth, the last whorl descending somewhat more rapidly in adults. Larger specimens are thus proportionately taller. The +holotype +(diameter +13.6 mm +) is evidently and exceptionally large specimen. The great majority are juveniles with a diameter of under 6.0 mm. Few specimens exceed 7.0 mm in diameter. In these the H/D ratio is 0.73–0.86, but it is often considerably less than this in juveniles. + + + + \ No newline at end of file
