Plate 157, Fig. 4. 

 FASCICULIPORA RAMOSA (D'Orbigny). 



Description. — Of this I have only seen the portion figured, which is perhaps 

 not sufficient for certain identification. It consists of a short, thick, obscurely 

 bilobed, densely packed bundle of zooecia, all opening- on the summit. The zocecia 

 ■ are not separated on the surface, which is closely transversely rugose and thickly 

 punctate. The zocecia open on the surface by prismatic orifices, none of which are 

 produced. 



Reference. — Busk, Cat. Pol. Brit. Mas., pt. iii., p. 37, pi. xxxiii., fig. 2.
