Calices shallow, fairly large, 1 mm. in diameter; usually 1 mm. 

 apart. Margins not elevated; the walls barely distmguishable from 

 the surrounding coenenchyma. 



Septa in two distinct cycles; only the six primaries reach the 

 columella, but the secondaries are well developed. 



Columella, a pointed style. 



Coenenchymal surface crossed by costules, along which are rela- 

 tively coarse granulations. In places the coenenchyma appears cel- 

 lular, as the costules are not solidly fused but have cellules developed 

 between them. 



Locality and geologic occurrence. — Canal Zone, station 6016, in the 

 Emperador limestone, quarry. Empire, collected by T. W. Vaughan 

 and D. F. Macdonald.

This species most closely resembles a species from the base of the 

 Chattahoochee formation, on Flint River, 4§ miles below Bainbridge, 

 Georgia, but it differs from the latter species in two characters, 

 namely, the outer ends of the principal septa are not produced into 

 prominent teeth, and in places the coenenchyma is distmctly cellular.

One of the specimens obtained by me in Antigua seems referable 

 to this species. The upper surface has four nipple-shaped elevations 

 on it; the largest is about 15 mm. in diameter at the base, about 

 5 mm. tall, and about 5 mm. in diameter just below the rounded 

 summit. Except such protuberances, the surface is flattish, with 

 some undulations. The size of the cahces and the septal characters 

 are as in the cotypes of S. ponderosa. 



Localities and geologic occurrence. — ^Alabama, Salt Mountain, 6 

 miles south of Jackson, just above the top of the Vicksburg group, 

 collected by T. W. Vaughan.
