![Distribution. London Clay, Sheppey. Type. Brit. Mus. No. B 4509. Figures. PI. XXXII. figs. 10 a, 10 5. Affinities. The specimen which serves as the type of this species is that which Mr. Vine figured as Idmonea gracillimaReuss, but as it belongs to a different family there is no necessity to compare it with that species. It reminds one, in the form of the zoarium, of Fntalopliora clavula, Reuss1; from this it differs in the serial arrangement of the apertures. The same character separates it from Fntalopliora pal- mata, Busk 2. This species seems to me to be most allied to Entalophora wanganuiensis, Waters (No. 5, pp. 340, 341, pi. xviii. fig. 1): but the New Zealand species has only 10 zocecia in a series; these are verticillate, and the zooecia are not infundibuliform. Family HETEROPORHLE, Genus Heteropora, Blainville, 1830. [Blainville, No. i, p. 381.] Diagnosis. Pergens, No. 3, p. 369. Species 1. Heteropora glandiformis 3, n. sp. Diagnosis. Zoarium very small, globular, free (the largest specimen is less than 3 millim. in diameter). Zooecia irregularly bent tubes. The orifice varies from orbicular to subhexagonal in shape ; they are surrounded by a strong raised rim. The zooecia are crowded, but interzocecial spaces occur on the surface of the zoarium; these are, however, entirely filled in the interior. Secondary pores numerous, somewhat less in number than the normal zocecia, irregularly scattered; they also have a thickened, slightly raised rim. Distribution. Barton Beds, Barton (common). Bracklesham Beds, Bracklesham Bay. \ London Clay, Highgate. (One somewhat doubtful specimen: Brit. Mus. No. 49596.) Type. Brit. Mus. No. B 4511. Edwards Coll. Figures. PI. XXXII. fig. 11. A zoarium from Barton; external view. Figs. 12 a, b. Fragments to show internal structure. Affinities. In the form of the zoarium this species resembles most closely some specimens of Heteropora conifera (Lamx.) [No. 2, p. 87, pi. 83. figs. 6, 7; see Haime, No. 1, pp. 208, 209, pi. xi. figs. 1 a-c\ figured by Haime, but the zocecial characters are quite distinct. H. stellulata, Reuss (No. 1, p. 35, pi. v. figs. 21, 22; Manzoni, No. 4, 1 Pustulipora clavula, Reuss, No. x, p. 41, pi. vi. fig. 11. For later figures see Reuss, No. i, p. 194, pi. ix. figs. 3, 4. 2 Pustulopora palmata, Busk, No. 6, p. 108, pi. xviii. fig. 2; and Manzoni, No. 4, p. 11, pi. ix. fig. 34. 3 From glans, a bullet. 2 p 2](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b28141386_0109.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
