Description. — Zoarium consisting of irregfularly anastomo- 

 sing, vertical, bifoliate lamellae about .25 mm. in thickness, the 

 openings between the lamellae being exceedingly irregular with 

 widths varying from i mm. to 4 mm. The entire zoarium forms 

 masses 5 mm. to 10 mm. in thickness, sometimes of considerable 

 lateral extent. Zooecia occupying both sides of the vertical 

 lamellae and somewhat regularly arranged in vertical and diag- 

 onal lines. The apertures oval or elliptical, somewhat variable 

 in form, closed in the old zocecia by a flat, smooth operculum 

 which is separated from the rim of the aperture by a slightly 

 depressed ring. The spaces between the apertures usually regu- 

 larly depressed. 



Reinarks. — This species can always be easily recognized from 

 the habit of growth of the zoarium, it being different in this 

 respect from any of its associates. 



Formation and locality. — Vincentown limesand, Vincentown 

 (154), near Mullica Hill (Gabb and Horn).
