New species or va- rieties will undoubtedly be found. Of the 93 species named in S. A. Miller's invaluable Catalogue of American Palaeozoic Fossils, 2d ed., 1883, Cincinnati, O., 31 have been transferred to other genera. Of the 62 which are still known as Aviculas^ only 10 have been reported by name from Pennsylvania localities. Ten others are figured without names, or reported without names, and remain to be figured if new. Aviculopecten cancellatus. {Pecten cancellatus.) Hall, VlU-
