 Syringothyris, Winchell, 1863, Proc. Acad. 

 Nat. Sci., p. 6. [Ety. syrinx, a tube ; 

 ihyris, a window.] General aspect like 

 Spirifera ; shell substance fibrous and 

 impunctate ; beak extremely elevated ; 

 area of ventral valve large, with a nar- 

 row triangular fissure closed toward the 

 apex by an external, convex pseudo- 

 deltidium, beneath which, and di- 

 verging from it, is another transverse 

 plate, connecting the vertical dental 

 lamellae, arched above, and beneath 

 giving off a couple of median parallel 

 lamellae, which are incurved so as to 

 nearly join their inferior edges, thus 

 forming a slit-bearing tube, which pro- 

 jects into the interior of the shell. Type 

 S. typus.

 shell, not more than one-third the 

 length of the valve, simply attached to 

 a hinge plate ; two ribbon-shaped la- 

 mellae are united by a transverse lamella 

 bent upward in the middle ; the cirrated 

 arms are supported by the crura, and 

 project in front of the loop ; no median 

 septum in the socket valve. Type T.
