2. Integument calcareous. 

 Aptychns Numida, Coq. Shell unknown. (Si- 



detes?) ? 



II. Gland double, ivith the Aptychtis calcareous, 

 1. Aptychus possessing furrows on tlie external side. 



Aptychus thin, presenting externally a layer of 

 conchioline, which is easily detached. Cham- 

 ber short ; apertural margin falciform, with 

 an acute ventral appendage Harpoceras, Waag. 



Aptychus thick, having uaternaUy a solid layer 

 of conchioline. Chamber short ; apertural 

 margin falciform, with a rounded ventral 

 appendage Oppelia, Waag. 



Chamber short, having near the aperture a 

 groove or a swelling ; apertural margin pro- 

 vided with lateral auricles and a rounded 

 ventral appendage Haploceras, Zitt. 



Chamber pretty long ; last turn detached from 

 the others ? Scapiiites, Park. 



2. Aptychus thin, granulated externally. 



Chamber lon^; apertural margin simple or 



furnished with am-icles Stephanoceras, Waag. 



Chamber long ; apertm-e narrowed by a furrow, 



simple or furnished with auricles Perisphinctes, Waag. 



Chamber short; aperture simple or furnished 



with auricles Cosmoceras, Waag. 



3. Aptychus thick, smooth, and punctated externally. 



? Chamber long. Umbilicus large. Shell with 

 fiu-rows; apertural margin with a nasiform 

 ventral appendage Simocekas, Zitt. 



Chamber short; apertural margin generally 

 simple AspiDOCERAS, Zitt.

 Mojsis., allied to Arcestes, and Feltoceras, Waag., intermediate 

 between Perisphinctes and Aspidoceras. 



This table is far from embracing the whole of the family of 

 Ammonitidffi. There are wanting Ceratites and Goniatites,
