The tigure vei-y strongly resembles Pachypora lamcllicornis 

 Ldm, which grows in lameliar branches and ends iipAvards in 

 narrow, fingerlike tips. 



P. 28, N:o X. Millepora ramis vagis punctis imhricatis, 

 fig. XIV. 



This does not occur further in the works of LiNNiEUS. When 

 in his very full description it is said: »Pori sunt . . . imbricati . . . 

 exteriore marsine obtuso et oblique incisi; ut ab apice non a 

 basi ramorum, inspecti, fundus eorum appareat» it is evident, 

 that this fossil is a Coenites and probably the common Gotland 

 species, C. juniperinus EiCHWALD. M. Edw. H. (H. N. Cor. 

 III, p. 268) identify it with Alveolites repens, what is in con- 

 tradiction with their own figure in Brit. Foss. Corals, pl. 62, 

 f. 1— la. 



P. 28, N:o XI. Millepora ramis cylindraceis, dichotomis, 

 seriebus longitudinalibus juinctatis. Fig. XV. 



Wahlenberg (1. c. p. 100) calls it, in citing Linn^us, for 

 Milleporites repens. To judge from the description of the zoooecia, 

 which are pointed tovvards their base, of triangulär shape, with 

 hipartite margins it is a Coenites or is allied to this genus. I 

 formerly called it Cladopora repens. Of all the Gotland bryozoa 

 it however resembles none more than Cladopora seriata Hall 

 (Pal. N. York vol. 2 p. 137, pl. 38 fig. 1). In none is the 

 characteristic serial arrangement of the zoooecian openings so 

 evident. 



P. 29, N:o XII. Millepora repens, ramis dichotomis, lineolis 

 subulatis, imhricatis p>oros distinguentibus. Fig. XXV. 



This coral is not further raentioned in the works of LiN- 

 NJEUs; Wahlenberg (I. c. p. 100) calls it Millepora cervicornis, 

 which with some doubt, is identified by M. Edw. & H. (H. N. 

 Cor. III, 268) with their Alveolites repens. It is not likely, 

 that it belongs to that species, which has more narrow branches; 

 both figure and description point to identity with Monticulipora 

 Bowerbanki E. H. (Palseoz. Cor. Great Britain p. 268, pl. 62 

 fig. I).
