A few specimens of this shell were collected at Thedford, in the 

 " Middle third uf the section," by Mr. Schuchert and Mr. Kernahan in 

 1895, but the species was first recognized at this locality by Mr. 

 Schuchert.

With the exception of the last reference, the foregoing list of synonyms, 

 with references,, thougli differently arranged, is ([uoted from Mr. Schu- 

 chert's excellent and most useful " Synopsis of American Fossil Bra- 

 chiopoda," published as " Jiulletin of the United States Geological Survey, 

 No. 87." On page .'M2 of that publication, the following observations 

 are made on li. fimbriata: " Mr. Walcott is correct in regarding this 

 species the same as S/urlfer undiferiit:, lloemer. Conrad's species, how- 

 ever, was published in 1842, while that of Roemer is two years later, or 

 in 1844. S. Richardnnni is a young specimen of <S'. compacta, which Mr. 

 Walcott has shown to be a synonym for S. widi/enis."
