 of the Manchester Museum. It was obtained from Padiham, near 

 Burnley, and although its precise horizon is not recorded the writer 

 regards it as undoubtedly just above the Mountain Four Feet mine.

A specimen of this species was obtained many years ago from 

 Coal-measures at Oldham, and deposited in the old Natural History 

 Museum in Manchester. No horizon was stated, and the specimen 

 cannot now be traced. 



A second specimen has been found by Messrs. Baldwin and 

 Sutcliffe at Sparth Bottoms, Eochdale, where it occurred 135 feet 

 above the Eoyley or Arley mine of the Middle Coal-measures.

The type of this species was described by Dr. Henry Woodward 

 in 1872, the specimen occurring in a clay-ironstone nodule lying 

 about four feet above the ' four feet mine ' or ' bone-coal ' of 

 Padiham. The horizon here given is that of the Soapstone bed, the 

 ' four feet mine ' being the Mountain Four Feet. 



1 Dr. P. A. Bather suggests that this specimen ought to be called Bellinitrus 

 Itmaius, Martiu, sp., having been described by that author as JSntomoUthus {Mono- 

 ciilm) Iimatns in his (Martin's) " Petrificata Derbiensia " in 1809, pi. xlv, fig. 4.
