of the fourth cycle hegiii in tlie middle, and the last nearer to the edge of the 
calyx ; they gradually decrease in strength, hut all are ornamented u'ith densely 
set small, round, granules. Tlie calyx is round, wide, and moderately concave ; the 
calicular margin rather sharp. There arc four perfect, and a fifth generally imper- 
fect cycle, the total number of septa being 70 to 82 ; all are thin. The pali are 
moderately' elongated and thick ; there are usually twelve of them, but sometimes 
two are displaced or not perfectly developed. The columella consists of very 
thin and much twisted and contorted lamellae ; its upper surface is very slightly 
raised and spinulosc, and its width is about one-sixth of that of the calyx. 
This is a very well marked and easily'' distinguishable species, both by its short 
cup-shaped form, with rather strongly and unequally costate surface, and by the 
large number of thin laterally only very finely spinulated septa. 
Locality . — Near Moraviatoor, in a yellowish calcareous saudstonc; three speci- 
mens have been examined. 
Formation . — Ootatoor group. 
3. Caryopiiyluia guaxulifeka, Sloliczka. PI. I, Pigs. 10 — 17. 
Caryoph. coraltimi suh-cylindraceo ohconicam, breve, bast anyiistata atque con- 
tractu, pallium curvata, affixum, fere omnino costatnni, costis siib-cequalibas, dense 
yranidatis; calyce circulari, pariim excavato ; seplis teniiissimis in quatnor cyclis 
perfectis dispositis, lateraliter minute yranulatis ; palis diiodecim elonyatis, paulo 
incrassatis, breviter elevatis, ad termmationes septorum ad tertium cyclum perlinen- 
tinm sitis, atque cum Us fere conjluentibus ; columella circa quintam partem calycis 
diametri ocenpante, lamellis tenuibus tortis comqmsita, panlulum elevuta. 
Corallum short, sub-cylindrical, reversely conieal, the base being rapidly con- 
tracted and slightly curved, the only perfect specimen having been sessile on a 
small Pelecypod. I’he }nural theca is very* thin, and the entii'c surface covered l)y 
densely granulated costae, slightly varying in strength, and nearly quite straight. 
The calyx is circular, exceeding the height of the corallum by one or two milli- 
meters, the total height being 9 or 10 mm. In one of the specimens, with a per- 
fect outer surface, the calyx was slightly concave, but it was so obliterated with 
adherent rock that a section had to he cut, in order to see the distribution of tlie 
septa. The only other specimen is a cast. In both the septa are very thin, slightly 
undulating, ari’anged in four complete cy'cles and six regular systems. The pali arc 
elongated, slightly thicker than the primary septa, twelve in number, one palus being 
opposite each tertial septum. The columella is rather broad and composed of very- 
thin twisted lamelhe ; its width equals about one-fifth of the diameter of the calyx. 
This is a very beautiful species, resembling the tertiary Australian C. viola, 
Duncan and "Wood, (Quart. Journ., Geol. Soc., Loudon, vol. xxvi, 1870, p. 293, pi. xix, 
fio-. 1). Like this species it is remarkable by the almost entire absence of an
