As it is impossible to make any thing out of Mr. Couch's very 

 bad figure, except that it represents something altogether different 

 from that shown in Dr. Johnston's, and as I have seen no authentic 

 specimen of this species, its existence as a distinct form must for the 

 present remain undecided. Like P. orcadeiisis, it may prove to 

 be the same as M. d'Orbigny's P. gallica. Dr. Johnston doubts 

 whether it may not be a form of Tuhidipora serpens ; but this seems 

 very unlikely.
