ALCYONAEIA OF SIND. 75 



The exotheca exists ; and a faint pellicular epitheca, with occasional growth-rings, 

 may be seen in some specimens. 



The epitheca covers in the smaller costse in large specimens ; they show, however, 

 by weathering. 



In full-grown specimens the calice is long, sinuous at the edge, broad, shallow, and 

 on an even plane. The axial space is very small. Height of corallum -^ inch. 

 Length of calice 1 j^^ ; breadth ^^ inch. 



Height of the coral -^q inch. 



Length of calice -^ inch.

The corallum is cylindroid, tall, compressed rather from side to side, curved, and 

 with a broadish base and a not much broader calice. The calice is elliptical in out- 

 line, rather contracted, and has 60 septa in six very irregular cycles. The septa are 

 small, not very unequal, slender within, long, and the larger have subequal costse. The 

 costse project, are distant, well developed, and wavy. The exotheca is seen here and 

 there, and some folds of epitheca. 



The base spreads rapidly from a small peduncle. 



Height of corallum 2 J inches. 



Length of calice lyg- inch. 



Locality. South-west of Dharan Pass, Nari group. Survey-number G -^. 



The specimen has many of the usual Nari Nummulites on it.

1. Styloccenia Taurineksis, M. Edw. 8c J. Haime. Plate XIH, Figs. 13, 14. 



This common species is represented in the Nari series of Sind in strata west of 

 Bhagathoro Hill, south of Sehwan. One specimen is in the form of a rounded but irre- 

 gular mass, with an opening inferiorly, which seems to hint that the form has incrusted 

 something. Another is a fractured specimen, which was part of a thick and compressed 

 mass. They are both rather worn, and the projections at the angles of the calices are 

 small and very indistinct in the second form, and quite rudimentary or wanting in the 

 first. The calices are, as usual, small, tolerably close, separated by small and variable 

 amounts of coenenchyma, and contain six thin and slender primary septa; they
