IX.—Note on Pericyclus Fasciculatus, F. M'Coy, sp
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Extract
In 1844, in his “Synopsis of the Carboniferous Fossils of Ireland,” F. M'Coy described and figured the species Goniatites fasciculatus (p. 13, pl. ii, fig. 8), a Goniatite referable to the genus Pericyclus, Mojsisovics. The type-specimen is preserved in the “Griffith Collection” in the Museum of Science and Art, Dublin, and has been re-figured (as Pericyclus fasciculatus) by Dr. A. H. Foord in his “Monograph on the Carboniferous Cephalopoda of Ireland” (pt. iv, 1901, pl. xxxvii, figs. 5a, b); where its locality is given as Millicent, Clane, county of Kildare.
