A comparison of specimens from the Hamilton Group of New York 
with those from Nevada shows variations that are quite strongly marked, 
but which are scarcely of specific importance, if we consider that the east- 
ern form is imbedded in a shale and more or less compressed, while the 
Nevada examples are in a limestone, and have also undergone slight 
changes resulting from the differences in their original habitat as compared 
with the New York specimens. The glabella of the Nevada form is more 
inflated and protruded in front, a narrow furrow occurs between it and the 
eye, and the entire head is much more convex, but in one or two specimens 
these characters are reduced and atypical head of Phacops rana is shown. 
The species as seen in most of the specimens resembles, in its prominent gla- 
bella marked in the cast by the little elevations that filled the hollows of 
the pustules seen in the outer surface of the dorsal shell, Phacops bombifrons, 
and appears to be a species uniting the latter and Phacops rana. 
Formation and localities—Lower horizon of the Devonian limestone; 
Comb’s Peak and other localities in the Eureka District; also at Lone 
Mountain, 18 miles northwest of Eureka, Nevada.
