The curious little Actinopsis flava of MM. Danielssen 

 and Koren,* which appears to be a near ally of this genus, 

 is remarkable for having the two gonidial tubercles greatly 

 prolonged into semicylinders, and terminating in two points. 

 It closely resembles in other respects a small Anthea, and 

 is of a yellow hue. As it has occurred in deep water (250 

 fathoms) oft' the southern end of Norway, it may reason- 

 ably be looked for on the opposite coast of Scotland, and 

 in the Shetland Seas.
