, Darwin had three or four species [of Lepadidae] from the Gault; from five to eight in the Lower Chalk, and from nine to twelve species in the Upper Chalk . . . and of these nine to twelve, five have been found by one collector, Mr. Fitch. Responding to Darwin's request for more specimens, Fitch sent a second lot about January 19. Fitch pointed out that his collection was the fruit of twenty-years' work. The specimens arrived, once again in a damaged condition. Darwin wrote concerning these matters

several months, his unrivalled collection of Cirripedia from the Upper Chalk of Norwich, the fruit of twenty years' labour. Mr. Bowerbank has given me the freest use of his fine collection, rich in specimens from the Gault. Mr. Wetherell placed in my hands his beautiful and unique specimen of Loricula pulchella, and other species. Professor Buckman sent me, of his own accord, a fine series of the valves of Pollicipes ooliticus, the most ancient Cirripede as yet known, discovered and named by him

, Bowerbank, Brit. Mus., J. Morris, Flower. General remarks. This species appears rather common. I have scuta, terga, and carinæ, which I infer without hesitation belong to the same species, from the similarity of their peculiar surfaces, and from their having been found frequently at the same place and in the same formation. Description. All the valves have their surfaces conspicuously marked with sharp, narrow, steep-sided prominent plaits parallel to the lines of growth; each periodical zone of

. Bowerbank. Locality and formation unknown; from the state of another specimen fastened on the same board, I think probably from the Gault; the colour of the substance in the cracks of the valve countenances this same opinion. I have been unwilling to fix a specific name to a single, much broken scutum; but as even in its present state it can be clearly seen to be distinct, and as this is the typical valve in this genus, I have felt myself compelled to do so. Scutum sub-rhomboidal, approaching to oval in

. Edwards, Charlsworth, T. Wright, Bowerbank, Tennant, Bosquet. This species, the most ancient one as yet well known in the genus, presents to the systematist a most unfortunate peculiarity, in the parietes being almost as often as not permeated by small pores: I have seen no other instance, except to a limited degree in the recent B. glandula, of this character being variable, and hence it must be still considered of high classificatory value, in so varying a genus as Balanus.
