Rayed Animals found in Ireland. 4 1 9 



verrucated tentacula, of moderate length, and nearly 

 equal thickness. In the pond at Cranmore ; Sept. 

 1812. This species, when at rest, assumes more of a 

 campanulate form than any other species of the genus, 

 except lutea and the following. The warts are not uni- 

 formly diffused, as in pallens; nor do the tentacula 

 diminish much in size towards the tips.* 

 Hy. corynaria Lam. (Jig. 58.) White ; head large ; about 10 



extremely short tentacula encircling the base. Found 

 adhering to JFucus vesiculosus, at White House Point, 

 Belfast Lough; Oct. 1810. 

 Coryne Gcertn. 



multicornis ForsJc. Body subsessile ; light purplish red ; 

 about 12 simple tapering tentacula near its apex, f 

 Found in great plenty on jFucus vesiculosus at the 

 White House Point, Belfast Lough; Aug. 1807. 

 Vorticella Mull. 



stentdrea Mull. Common in stagnant water. 



lunaris Mull, Common in stagnant water. 



Convallaria Mull. Common in stagnant water. 



globularia Mull. In great numbers on Daphnia Pulex, in 

 the pond; May, 1833. 



length of the body, it may be identical with Trembley's, after all. The 

 fewness of the tentacula is another doubtful character. Compare the 

 figure with those of Trembley's species in pi. 3. of his Histoire des Polypes.

* The habit seems to prove this a good species; but the specific name is 

 objectionable : the tentacula of all i/ydrae are verrucose. — G. J. 



f This is surely C. squamata of Fleming. — G. J.
