(Iii the course of conversation, which arose here among the Members of 
the Section, Mr. VV. W. Stoddart, F.G.S., stated, that though he could not 
quite agree with Mr. Leipner's remarks on "A septosaand Adepressa," yet 
he fully concurred in the opinion that Nos. 32 and 33 were a distinct and as 
yet undescribed species.)

For the thorough examination of this genus, we possess abundant material, 
there being no less than 26 specimens in the collection ; and some parts of 
our Rocks abounding in them, they furnish still greater opportunity for 
study. But I must acknowledge that as yet I have not been as successful 
with this Genus as I could wish, and that the dubious frame of mind of Mr. 
Stutchbury, when working among these corals, seems also to have descended 
upon me. Several specimens Mr. Stutchbury had entered in the Old 
Catalogue as "allied to S. ramulosa," — "allied to S. geniculata, "r— and one 
specimen (No. 53) was named by him "S. reticulata,'' — whilst another (now 
No. 54), which T have no doubt is but the lower part, and thus younger 
growth of the same, was named "S. geniculata." Some specimens are 
typical — at least, in my opinion — of S. ramulosa, Goldf., as, for example, 
No. 34, from the Mendips, No. 37, from Cleeve, and Nos. 40 to 43, from 
Bristol. Others would furnish types of "S. reticulata Goldf.," as Nos. 
51, 52, from Bristol; and others again, of "S. Geniculata, Phill." viz. 
Nos. 53, 54, from Bristol (?) ; but what is to be done with all the intermediate 
forms— intermediate as to size of corallites, distaace of corallites from each 
other, distance of connecting tubes, &c, I do not know as yet. The whole 
genus requires a careful revision. 
Fam. III. SERIATOPORDiE. 1, Genus Rhabdopoea. Eh. megastoma, 
Mc.C. Fam. IV. AULOPORITX3E. 1, Genus Pybgia. P. Labechii, 
M. Edw., No. 61. I have thus named in the Catalogue, but feel by no means 
certain as to the correctness of the name. The description of this species is 
to me too vague, and I have had no opportunity of obtaining a view of the 
work to which our authors refer. Fam. V. CYATHAXONIDiE. 1, Genus 
Cyathaxonia. C. cornu, Michelin. Fam, VI. C Y ATHOPH YLLI ADiE . 
1 Genus Zaphbentis. Z. cornucopia, Michelin. Z. Phillipsi, M.Edw. 
Z. Griff ithii, M.Edw. No. 62, I have ventured to name thus, but do 
not feel quite sure. It is from our own Rocks, and I am informed by Mr. 
Spencer Percival that the same form also occurs at Combe Hill, near 
Henbury. If this specimen should really be "Z. Griffithii," it would 
certainly be interesting, as the authors of the Monograph state that they had
