154 CARBONIFPJROUS CEPHALOPODA OF IRELAND. 



Bcnmrks. — Since Mr. Crick described this fossil I have been enabled to expose 

 a portion of the suture-line (PI. XL VI, fig. G c). This shows that the species has 

 no relationship Avitli Prolecanites, as assumed by its author, who had of course not 

 seen the suture-line when he wrote his description. The presence of ribbing (which 

 may wdth strong probability be admitted) and the general character of the suture- 

 line leaves little doubt that this species belongs to I'ericychis ; its relationship to 

 r. Clani'itsis, G. C. Crick, is pointed out under the description of that sjjecies.
