Two new neolampadids, Pisolampas concinna gen. et sp. nov. and Notolampas flosculus gen. et sp. nov., are described from the Tertiary of south-eastern Australia. The classification of cassiduloid echinoids is discussed, and it is suggested that the order Cassiduloida Claus should include three suborders, viz. Cassidulina s.s., Conoclypina Zittel, Neolampadina subord. nov.
