8a. Var. Mooreana View in CoL .

(Pl. III. fig. 15.)

From Weston-super-Mare we have seen another costated Kirkbya , rather resembling the present species, but relatively much shorter and more subquadrate in outline, the height being two thirds of the length. The costation likewise is slightly different; and the subcentral pit takes more the form of a transverse slit. This may possibly be a distinct species; for the present we term it K. costata , var. Mooreana . It was collected by the late Mr. Charles Moore, of Bath.
