You can replace coriander with cilantro, which is the leafy form of the seed, coriander. This is not an exact match, and the flavor/scent of cilantro is stronger than coriander, so be very careful. I'd replace 1tsp of dried coriander with 1/2tsp of dried cilantro or 1Tbsp of fresh, minced cilantro.
Cumin might make a reasonable replacement. Depends whether you need ground or fresh.

How much dried Coriander would you substitute for 1 quarter of a cup fresh coriander?

Coriander is an herb that has two primary forms: leaves and fruit. The leaves are typically sold as an herb called cilantro in the United States and the fruit is typically sold as whole coriander seeds or ground coriander. The flavor of the leaves is very different than the flavor of the fruit and I would not recommend substituting one for the other. Cilantro is typically used in Mexican cuisine and Coriander is typically used in Indian cuisine. It is one of the ingredients in garam masala for example. If you can't find fresh cilantro, you could substitute parsley. The flavor would not be the same but it is a better choice than using ground coriander seeds.
