■fig. 7. 



Shell campanulate, rough, with deep eoUar stricture. Length of the two joint.s = 1:3, breadth 

 = 1:4. Cephalis subspherical, with a thin conical horn of the same length. Thorax semi-ovate, 

 three times as broad as the narrow constricted mouth, with fifteen to twenty divergent, denticulate 

 ribs, alternating with the same number of rows of small, regular, circular pores. Tliree feet very stout, 

 as long as the thorax, cylindrical, nearly straight and parallel, vertical, at the distal end clavate, 

 spinulate or a little forked. 



Dimensions.- — Cephalis 0'02 long, 0'02 broad ; thorax 0'06 long, O^OS broad. 



Habitat. — Fossil in Barbados. 



20. Lychnocanium clavigerum, u. sp. (PI. 61, fig. 4). 



Shell campanulate, sulcate, with sharp coUar stricture. Length of the two joints = 1:4, 

 breadth = 1:5. Cephalis subglobular, with a spindle-shaped papillate horn twice the length. 

 Thorax nearly spherical, truncate at both poles, three times as broad as the narrow, constricted, 

 somewhat tubular mouth, with fifteen to twenty elevated meridional ribs, alternating with the same 

 number of rows of circular pores. Three feet slender, cylindrical, twice as long as the thorax, in 

 the basal half divergent, in the distal half convergent, club-shaped, with a thickened papillate end. 



Dimensions. — Cephalis 0"02 long, 0"025 broad ; thorax 0-08 long, O'Ol broad. 



Habitat. — Indian Ocean, Madagascar, surface (Rabbe). 



21. Lychnocanium /pudicum, n. sp. (PI. 61, fig. 2). 



Shell campanulate, with deep collar stricture. Length of the two joints = 1:3, breadth = 1:3. 

 Cephalis heraispherical, hyaline (without pores), with a short and thick club-shaped, spinulate horn 

 of the same length. Thorax subglobular, truncate at both poles, twice as broad as the constricted 

 mouth, with small, irregular, roundish pores. Three feet somewhat shorter than the thorax, curved 

 like a crescent, with convexity outwards ; theu- distal ends club-shaped, spinulate, convergent towards 

 the central axis. 



Dimensions. — Cephalis 0-02 long, 0'025 broad ; thorax 0'06 long, 0'07 broad. 



Habitat. — Central Pacific, Station 272, depth 2600 fathoms. 



Genus 549. Lychnodictyxim,'^ Haeckel, 1881, Prodromus, p. 432. 



Definition. — Se t h opilida (vel Dicyrtida triradiata aperta), with three latticed 

 terminal feet on the peristome, without thoracic ribs. Cephalis originally with a horn 

 (sometimes lost).
