78._J/y(!. spectabilis, Mull., (Suppl. Mon. Petraef. Aaehener Kreidef., 1859, p. 10, pi. 7, 

 fi"- 10) The fio-ured specimen is inipeifect ; the ornamentation of the shell would indicate a 



Sejjiifcr. 



'79.30. Mi/iiliis elegans and MocUola flabellum are described by Schafhseutl from the Bavarian 



Alps as occurring with fossils of cretaceous age, (Sud-Bayern's Leth. geognost., 1863, pp. 156 and 



157). 



^\.2,2.—Modiolaai,ffusta,'R.aimev, (Verst. des N.-D. Oolith., Nachtrag, 1839, p. 33), and 

 Mod. Queteletiana are quoted from Neocomien beds by Ryckholt, (Mel. paleont., 1" part., 1852, 



p. 154).

 Ryckholt, Mel. paleont., 1" part., 1852, p. 150). I have examined a small specimen of this 

 species transmitted to our Museum by Dr. Bosquet, and I think it to be a true Modiola, not a 



Lithodomus. 



Ql.—3I//t. Sartliensis, Gueranger, (Album paleont. d. 1. Sarthe, 1867, pi. xxiii, fig. 1), appears 

 to be based upon a fragment of Modiola fiagelUfera, Forbes.

 as coming from cretaceous deposits.
