Calceola sandalina, both by its generic and specific name, means a little shoe or slipper. It is a common fossil in the Devonian rocks of the Eifel and other continental localities, and was found years ago by Mr. Godwin-Austen at Ogwell, near Chircombe Bridge, in Devonshire.

page 59 note 1 It may be doubted whether the adult Goniophyllum pyramidale really had an operculum after all! It is true Lindström figures a detached operculum which he refers to this genus (see Geol. Mag. 1866, Vol. III. Pl. XIV. Figs. 6 and 7, p. 356), but out of several hundred specimens, obtained within the last five years from Dudley, not one possessed an operculum.—Edit. Geol. Mag.
