described in all, belonging to 20 genera. Of these, 8 species are only-

Describes and figures specimens from the Carboniferous Limestone 

 of Miatschkow. The species have been referred to FusuUna, Nummu- 

 lina, Borelis, Alveolma, and Orobias ; but they are aU genuine Fusu- 

 lince, and all members of a series " in which it may not be difficult 

 eventually to trace every gradational link from the elongate fusiform 

 contour of the type {F. cylindrica) to a compound lenticular form 

 having the general aspect of a Nummulite." Discusses the affinities of 

 the genus, and decides that it cannot be associated with the Rotalines, 

 but " finds its most appropriate place in the family Nummulinida?, 

 though amongst the least highly organized members of the group."
