A pseudo-columella is formed by the junction of the longer septa in the center. Found in the lower Moscow shale at Eighteen Mile and Morse creeks (rare). GExrs CRASPEDOPHYLLUM. Dybowskv. [Ety. : Kraxpedos, mii edge; phylloii, leaf.] (Beschr., von neuen Devonischen Arteu der Zoantharia Rugosa, p. ) Corallum simple or fasciculate; corallites commonlv cylindrical, each with a moderately-deep (;alyx and well- developed epitheca. A secondary central wall is present, which is not crossed by the septa, the longer of which join it to the outer wall. Inner area with tabuhe, outer with dissepiments. Ppper edges of septa carinate. Craspedophyllum archiaci. Billings. (Not figured.) {DiphyphyUum archiaci. Billings. Canadian Journal,, p. 260, Fig. 8.) Distinguishing Cliai'acters.—Reads consisting of parallel nearly straight cylindrical corallites, nearly or quite in con- tact with each other; young stems, added by lateral or marginal gemmation ; central tube small, apparently want- ing in some corallites; dissepiments numerous: epitheca showing numerous lines of growth, and sharp-edged annula- tions. Some corallites exhibit sudden constrictions of growth. Found in the Hamilton group (Encrinal limestone ?) on the shore of Lake Erie. (Coll. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist. New Yor
