Formation and Localities. — This species is widespread in the Carbonif- 
erous Limestone of Belgium, Trance, England, and Bussia. One of the two 
Australian specimens sent me came from the Muree Quarry, out of a 
yellowish-grey argillaceous limestone; and the other from a similar, hut 
darker, limestone from the Ichthyodorulite Kange on the hanks of the Kama.

I am not quite satisfied as to the determination of the Australian 
specimen before me, although it bears a decided resemblance to that which 
Milne Edwards and J. Haime have figured on PI. 46, Eig. 3 of their Mono- 
graph. It is composed of a number of branches of nearly equal thickness 
and joined together, having probably formed a base for the colony. 
Formation and Localities. — This coral was exposed on a piece of 
greyish argillaceous limestone at Burragood, and its Carboniferous origin is 
established by the fact that the same piece of limestone contains an undoubted 
fragment of Frodnctus semireticulatus, Martin.
