Ols. In “ Notes on Carboniferous Polyzoa,”t I have fully discussed the value 
OT the generic name Glauconome and re-defined it. Since my remarks were made, Mr. 
E. Vine has proposed a new genus + to take the place of the present one, but it seems 
to me on very insutScient grounds. After a careful perusal of his remarks, I am quite 
^ liable, with the present means at my disposal, to comprehend his very disiointed and 
indefinite Memoir.

th n speeimen of this genus has come under my notice amongst 
e Queensland fossils, and that is only a fragment. It consists of a main stem, with 
n-o primary branches, which are pinnate, with supplementary branehleis between tliem ; 
ut as only the reverse, or non-celluliferous face is presented to view, the species 
cannot be determined. ' ^

Tji , . Ulrich ^ has included the genus THiombopora, Meek, in the 
^ labdomesontidm, with the peculiar genus BhaMomeson, Young and Young, and it 
soin very improperly so. BTiahdomeson is one of the few Polyzoa possessing a 
iiio- + known to exist in the living BlialJopleura, Allman, and, aceord- 
h to Cinch, is again met with in two other Palieozoic genera, Cmloclema, Ulrich and 
'’■niotrypa, Ulrich. 
suffi • presence of a cylindrical ehitinous rod in Rliaidopleura has been thought of 
a sen importance, together with other characters, to warrant the erection not only of 
^_JWrate family, but even of a distinct class for its reception. The remarks of Dr.

‘ivo verv . P- referring to this “ Keport,” I wish to correct 
^^rnnixn _ errors into which Mr. Vine has fallen with reg.ard to species of mine. Under 
^■^tention t Nmikinei, Young and Young. Had Mr. Vine paid the slightest 
be a svn quoted above, and which he mentions in his bibliography, he would have found this 
into TIummscus pustuhita, at one time described by me as Pohjpora. I there entered 
®®*t poinf showing how the Messrs. Young, of Glasgow, had fallen into the same mistake. The 
““ Mr. remarkably good species oi Fenestelhi, described by me as F. scotica, is relegated, solely 
remark n ® “mmority, to another of my species, F . iuherculocarinala, as a synonym. It is almost needless 
“ark that they are distinct. '
