cistinen-Mergels von Barbados " (with 30 plates). Thus, nearly to 
the close of his long life, which took place on the 27th June in the 
year just closed, he showed no relaxation in his activity. 
From the year 1839 Ehreuberg was an Ordinary Professor in H.he 
Faculty of Medicine, From 1842 he was Secretary of the Physico- 
mathematical Class of the Academy of Sciences, of which he had 
been a member since 1827. In 1^39 king Friedrich Wilhelm III, 
conferred upon him the great gold medal for Art and Science ; and 
at the same time the Crown Prince gave him a gold medal relating 
specially to Ehrenberg's discoveries ; the Civil Class of the order 
" Pour le merite " counted him as one of its members from the time 
of its establishment by king Friedrich Wilhelm IV, ; and foreign 
honours were not wanting in recognition of his scientific merits. 
Quite in the evening of his life he was gratified by the receipt of 
the large gold medal founded by the Dutch Academy of Sciences at 
Amsterdam in honour of Leeuwenhoek, the discoverer of the Infu- 
soria, and conferred for the first time unanimously upon Ehrenberg.

Gentlemen. — In rearranging the corals in the Hunterian Museum 
I recognized the nineteen specimens mentioned in the following 
list as figured in Ellis and Solander's work. Doubtless more of the 
Hunterian specimens are figured in that work ; but I have only given 
those which have some characteristic feature admitting of certain 
identification. Moreover Ellis selected for illustration jiarts only 
of some of the bulkier specimens. The list, however, as it stands, 
wiU not be without interest to those who desire that the location of 
type specimens should be known.
