Pelecypods of Lower Permian (Sakmarian, Artinskian and Kungurian) age are described. Two new genera, Pseudomyalina and Middalya, and seven new species, Nuculana lyonsensis, N. thomasi, Stutchburia muderongensis, Astartila fletcheri, Pseudomyalina obliqua, 8chizodus kennedyensis, and Middalya johnstonei, are named. One other new species, Allorisma? sp. nov., and six other species, Glyptoleda sp., Parallelodon subtilistriatus Wanner, Astartila blatchfordi (Hosking) , Atomodesrria exarta Beyrich, Undulomya pleiopleura Fletcher, and Oriocrassatella stokesi Etheridge Junr., are discussed and figured. Aphanaia de Koninck is shown to be a synonym of Atomodesma Beyrich. Correlations are made with faunas of a similar age outside the Carnarvon Basin.
