There is no doubt this is the chief coral intended by Irimums, but as he included more than one, the A. ananas was described by Lamarck from the other species. Arachnophyllum, McCoy (Strombodes, Milne Edwards). McCoy's genus was certainly described shortly before or immediately after Milne Edwards' first description of the ge- nus; and it seems hardly worth while to revive the doubtful genus of Schweip-ger, and displace a most excellent and graphic name for it. Arachnophyllum typus, McCoy (Milne Ed- wards, t. 71, fig. 1, as Strombodes, Siluria, 2nd ed. Foss. 52, fig. 6). 8. typtis, diffluens, Murchisoni, Phillipsi, and Labechii, all are varieties of one common species. [Strombodes Wenlockensis, McCoy, is a Lons- daleia, Edwards, and is a common mountain limestone coral introduced by mistake; it never came from the Wenlock localities. J. W. S. 1867.] Syringophyllum, Edwards and Haime (Sar- cinula, Linn, in part). The projecting edges of the cups are the inner wall (eudotheca), the interstices being filled by the coronate septa, and there are no bounding walls to the separate corallites—they are fused to- gether as in modern reef-corals. Syringophyllum organum, Linn. (Sarcinula, Lonsd. and Goldfuss, Pet. Germ. t. 24, fio-. 10). More common in the Lower Silurian rocks. (See Milne Edwards, t. 71, fig. 3, and Siluria, 2nd ed. Foss.
