1. H. SECUNDA (Ag.) Falkenberg, 1901, p. 307, PL III, figs. 10-12; 

 P. B.-A., No. 2041; Hutchinsia secunda Agardh, 1824, p. 149; Pohj- 

 siphonia pecten-veneris Var. /3 Harvey, 1853, p. 46, PI. XVI. D. On 

 reef, Ely's Harbor, Aug., Collins. In this material the erect branches 

 are often abortive, and the regularity of position of branches charac- 

 teristic of the species is obscured. 



2. H. TENELLA (Ag.) Nagcli, 1846, PI. VII, fig. 2; P. B.-A., No. 

 1943; Hutchinsia tenella Agardh, 1828, p. 105. On rocks, corallines 

 and other algae, Harrington Sound, Bailey's Bay, Gibbet Island, 

 Jan., Smith's Bay, Feb., Nov., Harris Bay, April, Tucker's Town, 

 Dec, Hervey. 



3. H. PECTEN-VENERis (Harv.) Falkenberg, 1901, p. 315; Polysi- 

 pJiouia peden-veneris Harvey, 1853, p. 46, PI. XVI. C. Among 

 Gelidiopsis, Harris Bay, April, Hervey. A delicate and attractive 

 species; the graceful recurving of the branches easily distinguishes it.
