tions of these authors with the figures which they have given^ and with spe- 
cimens, leave no doubt of their identity- On this subject, indeed, Lamarck 
appears to be singularly inaccurate. Under his FunicuUna cylindrica (Hist, 
ii. p. 423), which is the Pennatula mirabilis of Pallas, he quotes the figure of 
Linnaeus, Mus. ad. ; and, under Virgularia juncea^ the very same figure is 
again referred to, and the copy thereof in the Philosophical Transactions. 
LAMELLIFER^. 
Gen. S arc inula. — F ree, massive, consisting of vertical 
parallel tubes, united by intervening matter. 
1. D. punctata . — ^Inferior surface concentrically undulated ; superior with 
cylindrical tubes, crenulated on the margin by subordinate pores, and divided 
internally by transverse partitions. — Porpital Madreporite, Park. Org. Rem. 
ii. 69. t. vii. f. 4. — Gloucestershire and Staffordshire. 
2. S. angularis . — Inferior surface with diverging striae ; superior with crowd- 
ed polygonal tubes — Porpital Madreporite, Park.\Org. Rem. ii. 69. t. vii. f. 3. 
— Dudley^ Staffordshire. 
Gen. LITHOSTROTION. — Coral of aggregated prismatical 
parallel tubes, with single terminal stellular discs. 
1 . L. striatum. — Hexangular ; striated longitudinally ; slightly waved 
transversely ; each plane with about ten striae ; the rays of the star unite with 
a small solid central axis. — Luid. Lith. 122. t. xxiii. Park. Org. Rem. ii. 43. 
t. V. f. 6, 3. — In Carboniferous Limestone. , 
2. Li.jioriforme. — This chiefly differs from the preceding in its greater size, 
and the axis occupying a greater space ; to which Martin adds, “ centres pro- 
jecting, pointed, and writhed or twisted like a rope.” — Mart. Derb. t. xliii. 
44. — In Carboniferous Limestone. 
3. L. oblongum — Pentangular, striated, the stems about one-twentieth of 
an inch from each other ; the rays diverge from the centre, branching towards 
the circumference. Park. Org. Rem. ii. 56. t. vi. f. 12, 13. — Ootite. 
4. L. marginatum, — Hexangular ; each angle with a raised rib, and numer- 
ous distant, small, short obtuse processes ; the planes flat and smooth ; the 
star consists of plates from the centre to each angle, with a few transverse 
ones. Two detached columns of this species, about the tenth of an inch in 
diameter, have occurred to me in Carboniferous Limestone. 
Gen. XXIX. CARYOPHYLLEA.— Turbinated or cylin- 
drical, simple or branched, adhering by the base to other 
bodies. 
70. C. cyathus . — Primary lamellae of the star about forty in 
number, with intermediate smaller ones, and a prominent curved 
centre. 
Madrepora cyathus, Sol. Zoop. 150.-— C. cyathus, Flem. Wern. Mem. ii.
