lower pinnules is variable, being sometimes small and ceasing at about the tenth 

 brachial, and sometimes much larger, extending out to the fortieth brachial. 



The disk is 50 mm. in diameter. The mouth is interradial. The ventral surface 

 of the disk is usually naked, except for a little plating around the peristome. The 

 posterior arms are mostly without ambulacra! grooves, and in -one case, at least, 

 there are ungrooved arms on each ray. 



The color in alcohol is dull green, either alone or mottled with purple, brown, 

 and white. 



I examined these specimens in London and found them to be quite like others 

 in the Albatross Philippine collection. 



The specimen from Palawan is a magnificent example, with about 100 arms 155 

 mm. long. Seven large functional cirri 13 mm. in length remain, all on the anterior 

 semicircumference of the centrodrosal. 



The specimen from Cebu is typical. There is a single cirrus remaining. 



Of the specimens from Port Galera, Mindoro, one has about 140 arms 200 mm. 

 long. Another also has the arms 200 mm. in length. In one of the specimens 3 of the 

 IIBr series are 2, and of the 20 IIIBr series 1 1 are 2 and 9 are 4 (3 + 4) ; the arrangement 

 of these last is not typical. 



In the specimen from the Macclesfield Bank the centrodorsal bears the stumps of 

 a row of cirri. 



The specimen without locality in the Paris Museum is small but typical; there 

 are no cirri.
