sense of the word. This is clearly shown in Knnth’s figures of Lophophyllnm, 
confertum} and L. leontodoir . In the coral now under description, which is 
far larger than most of tlie European, the cardinal septum, toAvards the floor 
of the calice, expands into a thickened lanceolate body, towards Avhich the 
dorsal septa converge, curving on themselves (PI. X, Eig. 9). Still nearer 
the floor of the calice, the whole of the dorsal septa and some of the lateral 
unite with this body, which is much enlarged thereliy ; its connection 
with the cardinal sejitum is, however, still traceable. Below the calice floor, 
and near the base, the whole of the septa unite in the centre, and there seems 
to he a deposit of stereoplasma. 
The secondary septa in our specimens (PI. X, Eig. 8) are very 
apparent, although Prof. H. A. Xicholson says that “ a division into 
alternately long and short septa cannot be recognised.”^ This separation 
is also shoAvn in Kunth’s figure of L. confertum. 
According to De Koninck, L. corniculiim hears some resemblance to 
the European L. Koninckl, Ed. & II., hut is distinguished by the number of 
its septa, size, and other characters.
