Aviculopecten dolabriformis. {Pecten dolahriformis ) Hall, page 264, figs. 119, 4.— VIII g. Chemung formation. It resembles Aviculopecten convexus ; but its beak is closer to its hinge, its ears difi'erenTly %j proportioned, hind ear very sharp, and the whole shell more lopsided (oblique) and much flatter. Aviculopecten duplicatus. {Pecten duplicatus.) Hall, page 264, figs. 119, 2. VIIIg. Chemung formation. This species difi'ers from all the other Chemung Aviculopectens in its extraordinary breadth, and the doubling of its radiating ribs towards the margin. These ribs are plain towards the beak, and cut
