410 BULLETIN 103, UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM. 



verlangerten Papillen," There are two specimens in the United 

 States National Museum, as follows: (1) No. 156910 from Fontana 

 della Bova di San Lorenzo, received from Prof. J. Felix; (2) No. 

 164726, from Monte Grurai, received from Professor Parona of the 

 University of Turin. I believe there is no doubt as to the correctness 

 of the identification of these specimens. The columella in both is 

 lamellate; in No. 156918 a relatively thick, coarse lamella; in No. 

 164726 it is small and thinner but distinct. Astrea alveolaris Catullo, 

 therefore, belongs to the genus Aniiguastrea, and it closely resembles 

 those variants of A. cellulosa, in which the calices are somewhat ele- 

 vated and relatively remote one from another. Com.pare especially 

 with the description of specimen No. 2 on page 405 of this paper. 



Localities and geologic occurrence.- — Catullo originally described the 

 species from ''Gambugliano nel Vicentino;" d'Achiardi records it 

 from Dego, TorriceUe, Castelgomberto, Monte Viale, Montecchio 

 Maggiore, Crosara, and Veronese; Reuss cites it from Monte di 

 Carlotta; the United States National Museum has it from Fontana 

 della Bova di San Lorenzo and from Monte Grumi. Fabiani hsts 

 the species as of only Rupelian Oligocene age.

Type-syedes. — Siylangia elegans Reuss (K. K. Akad. Wiss. Wien, 

 Math-NaturwissCL, Denkschr., vol. 33, 1874, p. 11, pi. 42, figs. 1, la), 

 from San Giovanni Ilarione, Horizon, Lutetian Eocene according to 

 Fabiani. '^ 



The species of coral next to be described does not precisely fit into 

 any of the genera known ^o me. It has the general aspect of Anii- 

 guastrea alveolaris (Cat.) Vaughan, and as it has a compressed styloid 

 Ar very narrow-lamellate columella, it appeared referable to Anii- 

 guastrea, but the columella is really more in the nature of a com- 

 pressed style than a lamella. I should have no hesitancy in referrmg 

 the species to Stylangia, if it were not for the very distinctly developed 

 pali. However, as pali in this group of corals are usually not of ge- 

 neric value I am placing the species in Stylangia. 



STYLANGIA PANAMENSIS, new species.

The following is a description of the type, the only specimen of 

 the species well enough preserved to show clearly the specific charac- 

 ters: 



Corallum, a small mass, 29 mm. long and 26 mm. wide, 

 Corallites protuberant from 1.5 up to 3.5 mm., distance between 

 the cahcular margins from 2 to 4.5 mm. The diameter at the calice
