 as the fourth or sixth joint.

 fig. 15. 



Shell, slender, conical, smooth, with straight axis, and ten to twelve distinct strictures. Joints 

 gradually increasing slightly in length, the tenth twice as long as the third. Pores circular, in regular 

 transverse rows ; commonly two rows in the first, three in the second, four in the third, seven in 

 the eighth and following joints. Horn of the cephalis long, bristle-shaped, curved. This species 

 called Eucyrtidium cuspidatum by Ehreuberg, differs from LitJwstrobus tristiclms (compare above), to 

 which Bailey had given the same name.

 0-06. 



Rabitat. — Xorth Atlantic (Greenland, Ehrenberg); Station 348, depth 2450 fathoms.

 the following, four or five in the last joints. Horn of the cephalis thin, bristle-shapetl, curved.
