Abstract:
The recent discovery of ancient weasel (mustelid) fossils in Goldsboro, North Carolina prompted a critical examination of Trigonictis species in the eastern United States. The mustelid was a carnivorous species from the Blancan land mammal age. This article provides a review of the literature, and a discussion of this species’ anatomy and taxonomy.

Abstract:
Information is presented on the occurrence of five species of marine turtles in North Carolina waters. The leatherback and loggerhead sea turtles, the two most commonly occurring species, are emphasized. Unpublished records indicate that the leatherback typically occurs in North Carolina throughout the warmer months in relatively shallow shelf waters, and may not be an open-ocean wanderer.
