Conrad published no figure of this species, and I was unable to find the 

 type either in Philadelphia or Washington. I have seen no specimen that 

 could be referred to the species.

Only the casts of a few terminal stars of this coral were examined; and they did 

 not permit a comparison with published tertiary species or the establishment of defi- 

 nite characters. The casts showed that the stars were slightly concave and in close 

 contact with a perfect structural blending at the lines of junction, and that the num- 

 ber of interrupted lamella- in the best defined cases did not exceed twelve. 



Locality, Jacksonboro, Georgia. 



BIBLIOGRAPHY. 



The following is a list of the papers from which citations are made in the 

 discussion of the corals. Papers quoted in discussing the stratigrapln- of 

 the formations, and which contain no references to corals, are not listed. 

 Those in which descriptions of Eocene corals from the United States are 

 found, or in which references to the species occur, are marked by an asterisk 

 (*); those not so indicated are quoted in the general discussions.

* In Report on Geology of the Coastal Plain of Alabama (Geological Survey 



of Alabama, 189-i, page 24s ), there was published a list of Clayton (Midway) 

 corals from Alabama, furnished by Mr. Vaughau. Through a curious mistake 

 a coral referred to in the list as simply "Crespitose astrrean" was published 

 as " Ca-spitose astnean, Vaughan " (see reference under Vaughan).
