page 360 note 2 Some of the hollow stems of the Coal period were evidently frequented by swarms of these ancient water–fleas. We have taken numerous specimens of the species, C. fabulina, from the interior of a flattened Catamites, in Coal–measures, Pirnie Colliery, Fife; and our friend, Mr. John Young, of Glasgow, found the same species very abundant inside of a stem of Lepidodendron, in the Coal–measures of the West of Scotland.
