CERIOPOEID^. 
Accordingly it is necessary to separate the French Neocomian 
fossils, identified as R. Merosa by d’Orhigny in 1854 and by 
Canu in 1902, from that species; and as a new name is required 
for the French form, it may be conveniently named after M. Canu. 
R. canui differs from Ceriopora tuberosa (Rom.), as the zoarium is 
tuberous and not dendroid, while the zooecia are circular instead 
of angular in section. As d’Orbigny assigned his species to the 
genus Reptomulticavaj its structure is doubtless multilamellar, 
though this character is suggested rather than distinctly shown 
in his figure (Bry. Cret. pi. 791, fig, 11). The specimen figured 
by d’Orbigny, according to M. Pergens, is lost ; accordingly the 
Museum specimen, D. 7077, had better be regarded as the type.

* This species is quite distinct from the Ceriopora micropora of Goldfuss, 
1827, for which see p. 158. 
^ Possibly the records of Ceriopora micropora from the Neocomian of the 
Crimea, by Dubois de Montpereux, de Yerneuil, and Baily, are based on this 
species.
