Upper Ordovician (Eden) of the Oliio Valley. This genus is readily distinguished from related members of the Ceramoporidge by its zoarial characters. Five species have been described from the American Ordovician and Silurian deposits, while at least three new forms await description. The following new species is closely related to one of the undescribed American Middle Ordovician forms, but differs from this as well as all other species of the genus in its larger zocecia and unusually thick Please note that these ima
