The fossil from the Petane marls is adnate, with the cells irre- 

 gular, as in Cellepora, and the aperture deep down, of the same size 

 and shape as in the recent species, but apparently without avicularia. 



Loc. Living : New Zealand. Fossil : Petane marls. 



66. Schizoporella clavula, Manz. 



Lepralia clavula, Manzoni, Bry. Foss. Ital. cont. "6a, p. 8, pi. ii. 

 fig. 9. 



In the fossil from Waipukurau there are six spines above the 

 aperture, and the ovicell is small, erect, somewhat elongate. At one 

 or both sides of the aperture there is a narrow avicularium directed 

 distally, following the border of the aperture, and usually curved. 

 The surface has probably been papillated, but that cannot be made 

 out with certainty.

I could not for- some time decide whether the fossils from Curdies 

 Creek and Mount Gambier, the recent forms from near Melbourne, 

 and the fossil from Napier should be united under the same species,
