Extract

In the Geological Magazine for last month (January) I proposed to establish the genus Phlyctænius for the peculiar Coccostean from the Lower Devonian beds of Campbelltown in Canada, named by Whiteaves Coccostens Acadicus. In this paper I propose describing that form more in detail, along with an allied, though at the same time very strongly marked species from the Lower Old Eed Sandstone of Herefordshire, to which on that occasion I also referred.
