Genus INOUYIA Walcott. 
Inouyia WALCOTT, 1911, Smithsonian Misc. Coll., vol.57, No. 4, pp. 80-81. (Described and discussed 
as a new genus essentially as below.) 
The species referred to this genus are represented only by the cranidium. This 
in the genotype has a swollen, tumid frontal limb, small palpebral lobes, a convex 
and more or less subrectangular glabella, strong dorsal furrows about the glabella. 
and clearly marked glabellar furrows. 
Surface apparently smooth, but with a strong lens it has a slightly roughened 
appearance caused by a shallow, irregular pitting. 
Genotype.—Agraulos ? capax Walcott [1906, p. 580]. 
The swollen frontal limb, small palpebral lobes, and convex glabella at once 
suggest A graulos [see plate 15] and in fact all of the species now referred to Inouyiza, 
with the exception of J. titiana (Walcott) [plate 14, fig. 9], were at first referred to 
Agraulos. My reasons for separating them and creating the genus Jnouyia are that 
the tumidity of the frontal limb is so pronounced as to become a marked feature and 
the glabella is more rectangular in the typical species. To these should be added 
the general effect of the cranidium [figs. 6, 6a], when compared directly with the 
cranidium of A graulos ceticephalus (Barrande) [plate 15, figs. 1, 1a]. I think it quite 
probable that when entire specimens of the dorsal shield of the various species are 
available for comparison other differences will be found to exist between Inouyia 
and Agraulos. 
In grouping the species under Iuouyia some are found to be close to Agraulos, 
notably J. abavis (Walcott) [plate 14, fig. 16], 7. ? acalle (Walcott) [plate 14, fig. 15], 
I. ? regularis (Walcott) [plate 14, fig. 18], and it is probable that with more complete 
specimens of the species they will be referred to a subgenus intermediate between 
Inouyia and Agraulos. 
The wide fixed cheeks of Inouyia capax [figs. 11, 11a] are confined to this species, 
as all other species referred to Inouyia have relatively narrow fixed cheeks. The 
large eye of J. ? inflata (Walcott) and relatively narrow frontal limb serve to place 
it apart from the other species. 
I am not at all satisfied with the arrangement of species under Jnouyia, but in 
dealing with such fragmentary specimens much must be left to future discovery and 
closer work. 
Attention is also called to Ellipsocephalus hoffi Barrande [1852, plate 10, figs. 
26, 27], as in that species the frontal limb is convex and the glabella subrectangular. 
The generic name is given in recognition of Dr. Kinos Ka Inouye, Director of 
the Imperial Geological Survey of Japan. 
Inouyia abaris (Walcott).

Agraulos abaris WALCOTT, 1905, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. xxx, p. 42. (Described and discussed as 
a new species essentially as below.) 
Glabella and fixed cheeks convex, subrhomboidal in outline, and strongly 
rounded in front. Glabella moderately convex; sides slightly converging; front 
broadly rounded; surface marked by three short and very slightly impressed fur- 
rows; occipital furrow shallow and arching slightly forward at the center; occipital 
ring narrow at the sides, gradually increasing in width to the broad base of a 
strong occipital spine.
