Incrusting specimen, X25, showing closed cells. B. Ordinary and ovicelled zooecia, X50. The cryptocyst is covered by the ectocyst. The ovicell is hyperstomial. C. Dorsal side of zooecia. From the base there are thrown out a number of radicular fibers by which the colony is fastened to stones, sponges, etc. D. Radicular fibers seen in profile. (After Waters, 1879.) Genus MOLLIA Lamouroux, 1821 The ovicell is hyperstomial and closed by the operculum. The zooecia are disjointed and united by cylindrical junctures. The opesium is trifoliated. The opercular valve is supported on the two lateral teeth but does not touch the distal portion of the mural rim. No spines, no avicularium. The zoarium is unilamellar. No die- tellae. Genotype.—Mollia (Eschara) patellaria Moll, 1803. Recent. Genus MONOPORELLA Hincks, 1881 The ovicell is hyperstomial, closed by the operculum, entirely buried in the distal zooecium, surrounded with costules or with a fringe. The apertura bears proximally two, very small, lateral inden- tations. Two small opesiules perforate the porous cryptocyst. The.
