Extract

Amongst the Carboniferous corals, not the least interesting are those species which, for one reason or another, may be difficult to classify, or at any rate diverge somewhat from the common order. It is with one of these aberrant members that the present communication is concerned; and it is, perhaps, not altogether unfitting that most of the material happens to be of Irish origin.
