Corners. It is found also at the power house at Bennett Bridge, 
a little over a mile west of the Salmon river Falls. 
The same species occurs in the province of Quebec, on the 
Richelieu River at Chambly. (No. 8434, in Victoria Memorial 
Museum, Ottawa, Canada.) A similar form is found on the 
Nicolet River, southwest of Ste. Monique, about 575 feet below 
the lowest horizon containing Strophomena planumbona. 
The type of Protowarthia cancellata, Hall, was obtained at 
Lorraine; Cyrtolites ornatus was described by Conrad from 
Washingtonville, from a horizon approximately equivalent to 
that at the railroad bridge east of Pulaski. The types of Hor- 
motoma gracilis and Clathrospira subconica were obtained from 
the Trenton at Watertown. 
43. Lophospira beatrice, sp. nov. 
{Plate II, Figs. 8 A, B) 
The Murchisonia beatrice, Billings, listed in the Geology of 
Canada in 1863 from the Riviere des Hurons is as good a species 
of Lophospira as many another form of this genus, although un- 
doubtedly closely related to Lophospira bowdeni, Safford. The 
specimens figured by Safford represent one extreme of develop- 
ment, with apical angles of 27 to 30 degrees, and with 8 to 10 volu- 
tions of which 6 or 7 are usually preserved, the tip being broken 
off. The characteristic feature of this group of shells is the rather 
broad and convex peripheral band, situated slightly below the 
center of the whorl, varying considerably in prominence but 
usually far less angular than in most species of this genus. Upper 
slope flattened or moderately concave toward the peripheral 
band, angulated or obscurely carinated where it curves into the 
rather deep sutural area. The lines of growth are strongly re- 
curved toward the peripheral band, which they cross as rather 
broadly concave lines, indicating a rather broad notch in the outer 
lip. There are no raised lines or striae bordering the upper and 
lower parts of the peripheral band, as in so many species of the 
genus. A lower carination or angulation usually obscure but 
sometimes fairly distinct, ending near the upper margin or the 
inner lip, is seen on the last volution of some specimens. The 
aperture is not well preserved in any specimens at hand but enough 
is preserved to indicate that it had essentially the same form as
