86 FOSSIL CIRRIPEDIA. 
each scale lies exactly between two scales in the whorls, both above and below: this is, in 
fact, the case with the large lateral scales in Loricula, but the ends of the scales in the 
same whorl, instead of, as is usual, quite or nearly touching each other, are here far 
removed from each other, so that each whorl is broken by wide open spaces. In the 
marked difference in size between the lateral scales and those in the two end rows ;—in 
the latter scales not intersecting each other, but presenting a straight, medial, rostral and 
carinal suture ;—and lastly, in each alternate whorl having a different number of scales, 
namely, four in one and six in the other, Loricula differs from every other known 
Cirripede.
