Isoteloides agrees with Isotelus in having the dorsal furrows and neck ring very faint on the cephalon, in the almost entire absence of segmenta- tion on the pygidium, in having a depressed border on the pygidium, and in the presence of spines at the genal angles. It differs from Isotelus in the form of the hypostoma, in having a defined glabella and a median tubercle, and in having a narrow axial lobe. Isotelus angusticaudus Raymond of the Chazy and Asaphus homalno- toides Walcott of the Black River and Trenton appear to belong to this genus. Isoteloides whitfieldi nomen nov.
