Abstract

The species Alveolites fibrosa Lonsdale, 1839, described also as Stenopora fibrosa var. β Regularis McCoy, 1851, and referred to as Stenopora fibrosa var. incrustans McCoy, was recognized originally by Lonsdale (1839) as different from Calamopora fibrosa Goldfuss, 1826. It is described here as Orbignyella fibrosa (Lonsdale) and shown to occur typically in beds of Leintwardine age.
