Affinities. 
Osculipora truncata (Goldf.) is the type of tlie genus, and is 
characterized by the cylindrical shape of the projecting zooecial 
bundles ; but when these are worn down, the specimens are not 
easily distinguished from 0. repeals. 
According to von Hagenow, his Coelophyma constrictumis attached 
to his Idmonea tetrasticha, in which case it should be the gonoecium 
of this species ; his figure only shows the reverse side of the stem, 
and though it is possibly the reverse side of an 0. tnmcata, the 
stem is straighter and more regular than usual in this species. 
Marsson records the species from Itiigen, but identifies it with 
the Retepora striata of von Hagenow, which appears, however, for 
reasons stated on pp. 58, 97, to be distinct, as it is probably the 
same as d’Orbigny’s Truncatula gracilis.
