" Locality. Point Ldvis ; band of limestone A 3, referred to in Sir W. 

 E. Logan's < Remarks on the Fauna of the Quebec group of rocks and 

 the Primordial Zone of Canada,' addressed to Mr. J. Barrande, dated 

 Montreal, 31st December, 1860, and printed in the Canada Naturalist 

 and Geologist of that year. ' I have in the mean time referred this 

 species to Olenus, although at one time inclined to refer it to Cononcepha- 

 lites {Sub-genus). Should it be found necessary to institute an interme- 

 diate generic form, whatever place naturalists may assign it in the 

 animal kingdom, I propose that it be named Loganellus Quebecensis.'

 broad deep groove extending outwards to the tips, which are bent down. 



"Axis tapering regularly from the front of the head to the posterior 

 margin of the tail, convex, as wide as the pleurae in front and less poste- 

 riorly ; the rings of the axis run into the grooves of the pleurae, marked 

 by a deep grove. 



" Tail semi-circular, the lateral lobes marked by two or three ribs with 

 a deep groove as in the pleurse, owing to which and the smallness of the
