Abstract
Cymatoceras is a genus of nautiloid (Superfamily Nautiloidea), of worldwide distribution in Cretaceous strata, but has not previously been reported from New Zealand. A new species, C. nichollsi, is described from a stream boulder collected near Kaeo, Northland, New Zealand. Lithology and regional association indicate that the boulder probably came from the Whangai Formation of the Northland Allochthon, of Late Cretaceous (Haumurian) age.
