This points to another species than the first intended, but tlie 

 speciraens first described must have the name, the others belong 

 to a different species. In my description of the Chinese corals 

 brought honie by Baron F. von Richthofen^) I have given a 

 figure of Heliolites interstinctus, which I consider to represent 

 the true and original Linnean species. What recent authors 

 have called Hel. interstinctus are mostly quite ditferent forras, 

 as I reraarked in the paper on the Chinese corals and will try 

 fnrther to demonstate in a paper on the group of the Helioli- 

 tidae prepared a long time ago. 



P. 31, N:o XIV. Millepora suhrotunda poris contiguis, 

 angulatis, farctis, subtus sulcata. Fig. XVII. 



There is no further mention of this fossil in S. N., nor in 

 F. Su. and so is also the case with the two following ones. As 

 M. Edw. & H., though with some doubt, have accepted this 

 species as their Favosites Forhesi there is no reason to deviate 

 from this conclusion. 



P. 32, iS:o XV. Millepora poris contiguis, angulatis; dia- 

 phragmatihus transversalihus plnriniis. Fig. XXI. 



By M. Edw. & H. identified with their Favosites Hisingeri. 



P. 33, N:o XVI. Millepora tuhis contiguis subrotundis; 

 diajy/iragmatibus transversalibiis plurimis. Fig. XXIII. 



In all probability this inay be the narrow-tubed Favosites 

 fibrosa, but I cannot decide with certainty.

 reticulatimque concatenatis. Fig. XX.

 Perhaps Linn^eus also meant the same coral, when he (1737), 

 in »Genera plantarum» p. 329, mentions »Cellepora* Lithophyton
