310 APPENDIX. 



remarkable if all the specimens brouglit home by M. 

 Kobert should prove to be Permian, while those from 

 the same locality before us are mostly of Carboniferous 

 type. The larger and more conspicuous shells do not 

 seem to have been met with by INT. Robert in his 

 voyage. 



8. Fenestella, two species, one with very large meshes. 



9. Sponges (?) ; large, stem-like and cake-like in 

 shape. 



Specimens without definite localities : — 



10. Spirifer cristatus, Schloth. S. octopHcatus of 

 the Mountain -limestone is now regarded as the same 

 species. 



11. Streptorhynchus crenistria, or an allied form. 



12. Zaphrentis Ovibos, Salter (?). Probably an 

 Arctic species. 



13. Stenopora; a large branched species, like S. 

 Tasmaniensis of Lonsdale. This occurs at Bell Sound 

 also. 



14. Syringopora, large fragments. 



15. A new genus, in all probabihty of the FenestelUdcB, 

 consisting of thick stems branching regularly from 

 opposite sides, the smaller branches also opposite, aad 

 coalescing with their neighbours so as to form a 

 quadrangular network. But for this coalescence it 

 might be a gigantic Thmnniscus or Ichthijorhachis. As 

 the poriferous face is not seen, it is better not to give a 

 new generic name. 



From Black Point, in shaly beds, which seem to be 

 associated with the coal, slabs were obtained with nu- 

 merous shells and some fragments of plants. 



16. Nucula, abundant ; and amongst these is a small
