Fig. 1. abed, four figures of fibrilljE after Muys. — 2. "A fibre covered with cellular membrane at the upper part," cross- striated and splitting up into fibrillse at one end : after Fontana. — 3. Diagram of fibrillse after Bowman. — 4. Diagram to illustrate the views of Sharpey, Lealand and Carpenter: a, two fibrils united; b, single fibril, with each sarcal particle ha- ving a dark central and clear outer part. — 5. Diagram of two fibrillce to illustrate the views of Mr. Erasmus Wil- son : a, usual appearance of fibrillse ; b, a very much stretched fibril to show the dark and clear spaces, each divided into four. — 6. Diagram to show the fibrillse in the distinct and superficial focus : a, fibrils in distinct focus ; b, fibrils in superficial focus from the frog. — 7. Diagram of two fibrils from the lobster: a, fresh fibril mucli stretched, showing scalloped edges of clear space ; b, similar fibril unstretched, showing clear space apparently dark from its nar- rowness. — 8. Diagram to illustrate a membrane observed among the fibrillse : a, membrane as seen in frog and salmon; b, similar membrane observed among fibrillce of the muscle of skate, perfectly fresh. — 9. General appearance of a dissection of muscular fibre from the frog, magnified about 500 diameters. XIII.— On some new genera and sjjecies of Palaozoic Corals and Foraminifera.

Corallum composed of adjacent polygonal, prismatic, easily separable tubes, inter- nally divided into three areas : vertical section, 1st, a thin, flat, straight axis; 2nd, a broad in- ner area composed of nume- rous curved vesicular plates in irregular rows converging up- wards to the axis; 3rd, an
