cbarftctcr of C. sinuosa. In tlie same specimen, before any ovicolls are 

 formed, tbo aperture is very near tbo top of tbe zocncium ; bnt aflcrwnrdH 

 its position is near tbe centre. Having found tbo position of tbe aperture, 

 tbo sbape of tbo ovarian opening, tbe shape of tbe zocucium and of the 

 bordering rim unsatisfactory characters, there only remained tbo avica- 

 lai'ia ; and in all tbe specimens I have examined I have found one form 

 constant. Tbe 0. Jislulosa from the Mediterranean bas its rounded 

 avicularium above tiio zooecium ; the C Hnaoea bas a diagonal avicalarium 

 pointed downwards, with the lower part raised ; tbo G. Johnaom, from 

 Rafallo, Italy, and Now Guinea, bas a zooecial avicularium with a project- 

 ing hood above, as figured by Hincks. I find my observations on the recent 

 species entirely confirmed by the examination of a large number of fossil 

 forms.' It is very evident from this, that of tbo whole of tbe synonyms 

 given below from Reuss and others, many still merit re-examination, and 

 it must be remembered tbat in giving them from these respected authors, 

 I give them upon their authority only. Of course Mr. Waters's synonyms 

 may bo taken as evidence of work along the lines wbicb be himself bas 

 laid down,
