I have considered these as Nov. Spec, with doubt, having been un- 

 able to procure more than four British species to compare with, and 

 all the hitherto published figures and descriptions are inadequate for 

 that purpose. In order to obtain a correct determination in the fos- 

 sil Chitons (where seldom more than detached valves are met with), 

 their degree of convexity must be ascertained, their altitude and re- 

 lative dimensions of length and breadth, the amount also of angula- 

 rity in the central valves, and the shape and magnitude of the sus- 

 tentacula, or processes at the posterior part of each, which vary in 

 all the species I have examined.

Only one imperfect specimen ; it differs from the common character 

 of the recent shell in having the rays slightly imbricated. 



Ord. Pleurobranchiata.
