Calamopora属是由奥古斯特·戈德福斯博士*创立的，用于接待被作者描述为图比孢亚目的物种，以及被拉马克描述为Favosites和Alveolite的物种。属的定义很简单，但绝不能令人满意，因为很明显，即使是作者本人，也有许多不同的形式被放在一起。戈德福斯描述的物种中有一些是分枝物种，另一些是巨大的物种；由于许多来自泥盆纪和志留纪地层的物种与约克郡发现的石炭纪化石有一些明显的相似之处，菲利普斯被诱使采用卡拉莫拉属(Calamopora)来放置约克郡的化石。
《约克郡地质学》中描述了三个物种，但我现在希望特别关注其中的一个。
卡拉莫波拉，戈德福斯。
吉奥。1836年，爱丁堡，约克郡--斯泰诺波拉和查特斯(菲尔)。
主要发现于层状石灰岩硅质岩和页岩中。从布劳德石灰岩到上磨石砂砾。(作品)如图所示)
卡拉莫波拉·图米达，菲利普斯。
吉奥。约克什，编辑，1836年，Pl.图I，图49、50、51。
不规则的分枝和肿胀，由同心的棱柱状细胞层组成，在表面收缩成一个小开口。地点--哈罗盖特，格林豪斯山，布罗德，柯克比·朗斯代尔，
米德尔顿(佛罗伦萨法院：阿兰，菲尔)(作品)如图所示)
每当古生物学家试图在约克郡以外的地层中鉴定物种时，这种对膨胀棘豆的简短描述就会给他们带来无穷无尽的麻烦。在我的里士满和赫斯特的材料中，我有几个我相信的样本。
The Genus Calamopora was founded by Dr. August Goldfuss* for the reception of species that had been previously described by authors as Tubipora , and by Lamarck as Favosites and Alveolites . The definition of the Genus is very simple, but by no means satisfactory, as it is quite clear, that even by the author himself, many diverse forms were placed together. Some of the species described by Goldfuss were ramose, others massive; and because many of the species from the Devonian and Silurian formations, had some apparent likeness to Carboniferous fossils found in Yorkshire, Phillips was induced to adopt the Genus Calamopora , for the placement of the Yorkshire fossils also.
In the Geology of Yorkshire three species are described, but I wish now to direct attention to one of these in particular.
Calamopora, Goldfuss.
Geo. of Yorkshire, Ed., 1836.— Stenopora and Chaetetes (Phill).
“Found mostly in laminar limestone cherts and shales. From the Brough Limestone to the Upper Millstone Grit.” (op. cit.)
Calamopora Tumida, Phillips.
Geo. of Yorksh., Ed., 1836, Pl. I., Figs. 49, 50, 51 only.
“ Irregularly ramified and swollen, formed of concentric layers of prismatic cells, contracted to a small opening at the surface. Localities —Harrogate, Greenhow hill, Brough, Kirkby Lonsdale,
Middleton (Florence Court: Arran, Phill.)” (op. cit.)
This brief description of C. tumida , has caused no end of bother to Palaentologists whenever they have attempted to identify species in other than Yorkshire strata. In my Richmond and Hurst material I have several specimens of what I believe ...
