The variations in the outline of this species reach an extreme in the variety subrecta, which retains the same style of orna- ment as the foregoing and relative proportions and development of the parts, but is quite erect. This appears to be a persistent feature which we find exemplified in several examples. Lower Devonic. Edmunds Hill, Chapman Plantation, Me.
