There are 24 septa, that is 3 ordines or 3 cycles. Of these the two first form columella, 

 while the latter are but slightly developed and only protrude a little from the edge of the theca. 

 In the lowest parts of the coral many dissepiments are seen, but no other endothecal for- 

 mations.

I have a great rarity from the white chalk from Stevns Cliff, — the remains of a single 

 specimen of a coral which permits determination in spite of very insufficient material. 



The fragment of the coral which was obovate-conical in form, with very gradual 

 increase in breadth, so that the fragment is almost cylindrical, is 12 mm in length with a 

 slightly bent axis. The diameter varies between 3 — 4 mm. 



The theca is thin, without epithecum. Co.stae are present as very low, sharp ridges with 

 protruding granulations here and there. The interstices between the costae are smooth. 



The material at hand shows no calyx. There are 24 septa; 3 ordines or 3 cycles of 

 which the 12 in the first and second ordines roach the center where they participate in the 

 formation of a spongy pseudo-columella of considerable size. 



In the interseptal compartments, especially in the lower parts of the coral, scattered 

 dissepiments are found which seal the inter.septal compartments.

21. Parasmilia danica, n. sp. 



Table IV. Figs. 17—18. 



Only a single defective specimen of this species exists. The coral is 22 mm in length 

 with a diameter of 16 mm at the edge of the calyx. It is obovate-conical with a straight axis. 

 It seems to have adhered directly without any actual basic disc. 



The theca is thin, without epithecum. Costae are wanting. The calyx is shallow, shows 

 at the edge 48 septa, that is 5 ordines in 4 cycles. Of these the 3 first ordines connect with the 

 large central columella which seems to be fasciculate, while the septa of the 2 last ordines 

 are but slightly developed. The upper edge of the septa protrudes beyond the edge of the 

 calyx. The lateral surfaces of the septa are covered with many rows of well-developed granul- 

 ations.
