species described by Peirier ; there are very many specimens,

 [7. Asterias calamaria.

This species, which is coniiuon off New Zealand, has alread)" 

 been recorded from Mauritius ; it would appear to be rare off 

 the Cape. The specimen was obtained at low tide in the rock 

 pools, Three Anchor Bay.
