 elegans is really Bryozoan. 



Loc. Fossil : Shakespeare Cliff (Wanganui).

 the New Zealand Moll. p. 198. 



Professor Huttou has sent me some recent specimens from New 

 Zealand, and these exactly correspond with the fossil. The appear- 

 ance is somewhat the same as that of EniaZbphora, but the zocecia 

 do not project, and are cut off straight at the surface of the zoarium. 

 The branches are about 2 millim. in diameter, and the zocecia are 

 very large (0*2 millim. wide), arranged in a spiral manner, opening 

 diagonally to the surface ; about 12 cells form a complete spiral. 

 Although it is placed among the Bryozoa, it must be pointed out 

 that its relationship is not proved. The external portion of the shell 

 is formed of thick fibrous layers in a manner which is not usual in 

 Entalophora, and there are few external pores. There are connecting 

 pores in the interior. This is closely related to Cylindropora 

 areola ta, T.-Woods, placed by that author among the Hydrocorallinos 

 (Palaeont. of New Zealand, p. 21), and which also occurs fossil near 

 Napier. In this last the openings are more vertical to the surface, 

 and it is larger, with a more solid shell ; but it would seem sufficient 

 to separate it as var. areolata. Spiroporina immersa, Woods, may 

 also be allied ; but this is a species with which I am unacquainted. 



Loc. Living : Wellington (New Zealand). Fossil : near Napier r 

 "Waipukurau.
