This report deals with the second of two shipments of marine invertebrates collected from the Kulthieth, Poul Creek, and Yakataga Formations in the Malaspina and Yakataga Districts. An earlier report on the first shipment was made in January, 1970. The deformed and fragmental condition of specimens from the Kulthieth? Formation accounts for the many qualified or doubtful determinations.
