Fourteen species and one variety of fusulinids from the Minnelusa formation of South Dakota and the Hartville formation of eastern Wyoming are described and illustrated. These include five new species and one new variety of Fusulinella, one previously described species of Wedekindellina, six species (two of which are new) of Fusulina, and two new species of Triticites. These Pennsylvanian fusulinids are compared with others from America, Europe, and Asia, and it is concluded that the fusulinids of the lower part of the Minnelusa are closely related to those of the lower part of the Hartville, and that the lower portions of both of these formations should be referred to the Morrow series. The fusulinid fauna of the middle part of Hartville is comparable to that of the mid-portion of the Cherokee shale (Des Moines series), and that of the upper part of the Hartville is Upper Pennsylvanian in age.
