another, called Clymenia. Fig. 512, Goniatites retrorsns ; fig. 513, Clymenia 

 Sedgioickii. The shell in Clymenia has the form in the Ammonites, but, unlike 

 the Goniatites and Ammonites, the siphuncle is ventral instead of dorsal, and 

 the septa have no distinct dorsal lobe on the medial line, as shown in fig. 513 a. 



3. Articulates. — There are a number of species of Trilobites, though less 

 than in the Silurian : the genus Phacojis or Dalmania is most common. Homalo- 

 notus has European species, and one, IT. armatus, has spines on the head and two 

 rows along the back. This spinous feature reaches its maximum in the Devonian 

 Arges armatus (fig. 514).

Minute Ostracoids, referred to the genus Cypridina, abound in the Cypridina
