﻿Notes on Fossils from Prince Charles Foreland. 169 



CEUSTACEA. 

 Trilobita. 



Fhillipsia, sp. indet. 



The occurrence of Trilobites in the Permian limestone 

 of Prince Charles Foreland is indicated by a fragment of 

 pygidium, and the obscure cast of the cephalic shield of 

 a Fhillipsia. The pygidium has a strongly defined triloba- 

 tion ; the mesial lobe, very prominent, is wider than the 

 lateral lobes (not including the width of the margins); the 

 margins are broad and apparently not ornamented. The 

 segments, the number of which is not known, are separated 

 by deep furrows, and terminate abruptly at the inner edge 

 of the marginal zone. 



Although a specific determination cannot be given, it is 

 extremely interesting to note the occurrence of a Trilobite 

 in a bed of Permian age in these regions. So far as I am 

 aware, Permian Trilobites are very rare in Europe, and this 

 record from a new locality is a point worth mentioning. 



1 0stracoda. 



Pending further investigation, it may be stated that remains 

 of what appear to be the carapaces of some large Ostracod 

 occur sparingly, but the material is so meagre that it must 

 be left unclassified till undoubted specimens are obtained. 



BEYOZOA. 

 Trepostomata. 



Stenopora, Lonsdale. 

 Stenopora cidariformis, n. sp.^ 



(Plate YIII. Figs. 6 and 7.) 



Zoarium slender, ramose, dichotomous ; branches always 

 cylindrical, from 4 to 7 mm. in diameter, with very little 



^ Thus naraeil from the resemblance that tangential sections bear to the 

 test of Cidaris.
