The best specimen in the collection is a large, massive block 

 (J 1578), which I refer to var. triangularis, Klunz., but it is so 

 eroded that the calices are destroyed, and the depth of the calicular 

 furrows gives it some resemblance to var. leptochila, Ehr. 



Klunzinger renamed the common Eed Sea Coeloria C. arabica, 

 though there are several names with prior right, and I have, 

 therefore, adopted the oldest of them. 



The specimens referable to C. lamellina are : — 

 J 1578, a large specimen of var. triangularis, Klunz. : raised beach, 



Camp 4, 80 feet above the sea, Wadi Hamrawein, near 



Qosseir. 

 J 2115, a specimen of var. triangularis, Klunz. : lower raised beach, 



north of Qosseir, 

 J 2234, a specimen of var. subdentata, Ed. & H. : raised beach, east 



of Gharib. 

 J 2231, a specimen of var. leptochila (Ehr.) : raised beach, east of 



Gharib. 

 K 1630, a specimen of the typical form : raised beach, 80 feet above 



sea-level, Wadi Gueh, Qosseir.
