Stictodiscus Trunanii Witt. ?, very rare, 90 ft. This form differs 
from that figured by Truan and Witt. (Die Diat. der Polycyst. von 
Jeremie in Hayti, p/. 4. figs. 23 & 24), inasmuch as the rim is less

specimen was found. It appears to form another link between 
the continental and insular deposits.
