after the letter-press and plates of this species had been finished, and therefore too late 

 to be cited in the body of this work. 



CALCEOCRINUS (new; ^enw^;. 

 Plate LXXXV. Figs. 5 & 6. 



This peculiar crinoid presents the point of attachment for the column, and a portion 

 which appears to be the Lpie or pelvis, in which a separation into two plates only is 

 visible. One of the plates is convex, the other nearly flat or concave, both having the 

 upper margins slightly serrated. 



In general appearance, this fossil has the character of the root of a crinoid ; but from 

 finding many of the same form, and always free, it would appear to belong to the ter- 

 minal portion of the animal. It is probable that the plates are so closely anchylosed as 

 to obscure or obliterate the lines of suture. 



Other specimens and farther examinations are required to decide the character of this 

 fossil. 



EUCALYPTOCRINUS. 



Plate LSXXV. Fig. 7. 

 This figure represents a side view of one of the solid arms and tentacula of this fossil. 

 It presents some features differing from the figure on Plate xlvii.
