Penteemites Godoni, var. major, var. nov. 

 (PL II. fig. 1.) 

 Bernards. We propose to distinguish our largest variety of P. Godoni under the 

 above name. It differs so markedly from the smaller and shorter varieties, that, had it 

 not been for the number of connecting links, we should have bestowed on it a distinctive 

 specific name. There is a general resemblance to P. Burlingtonensis, M. & W., but 

 the spiracles of the present specimen are single as in the typical Pentremites.

Pentremites Godoni, var. florealis, Schlotheim, var. 



(PI. II. fig. 2.) 



Asterial Fossil, Parkinson, Organic Remains, 1808, vol. ii. p. 235, t. 13. f. 36 and 37. 



Encrinites florealis, Schlotheim, Petrefactenkunde, 1820, Abth. i. p. 339. 



Pentremites florealis, Goldfuss, Petrefacta Germanire, 1836, Theil i. p. 161, t. 50. f. 2 a-c. 



Remarks. Parkinson's " Asterial Fossil," and the Encrinites florealis, Schlotheim, 

 seem to us from Parkinson's and Goklfuss's figures to be the equivalent of our third 

 variety, in which the bodies of the radials are very much inclined to the vertical axis 

 of the calyx. Should this supposition be correct, the trivial uame florealis might 

 be retained to distinguish this variety. 



Locality and Horizon. Huntsville, Alabama : Chester Group, Subcarboniferous. 



Pentremites Godoni, var. abbreviatus, Hambach, var. 



(PL II. fig. 4.) 



Pentremites abbreviatus, Hambach, Trans. St. Louis Acad. Sci. 1880, vol. iv. no. 1, p. 155, 

 t. B. f. 3. 



Remarks. Mr. Hambach's species is thus described : " Body depressed, conoidal, 

 wider than long ; basal portion horizontal." 



Four examples of this species were kindly sent to one of us by Prof. A. H. Worthen, 

 and we have also had before us several specimens of P. Godoni which answer to the 

 characters and resemble the figure of P. abbreviatus, while we have others intermediate 

 between these, and undoubted examples of the typical P. Godoni. Under these 

 circumstances we feel obliged to include P. abbreviatus as a variety of P. Godoni.
