Shells having very much the configuration of T. g y r a c a n - thus Eaton,^ occurring, like that, in aggregations in the limestone, but uniformly of very much greater size. The slender cones, attaining a length of 10-15 mm, are strongly annulated but the '''5i'>,. Tentaculites leclercqia. The slab X2: the individual xs annuli are often highly irregular in size and have an abrupt or con- cave slope on the lower side and a convex slope above. They are themselves covered with fine concentric elevated lines. The annuli appear to extend to the tip of the shell. Lower Devonic. Perce rock, P. Q.
