MELTCEMTITES. 
a Meliceritites, is the first representative. Should, however, there 
he no avicularia present in this species, the genus CJiisma may be 
retained. The specimens in the Museum collection are mostly 
worn, so that the absence of avicularia cannot be asserted. The 
general zooecial characters are much like those of Jfelicen'tites 
seiniclatisa, but their shape is lozenge-shaped rather than hexagonal.
