Plate IV. Figure 7. 



A larger and better specimen of this species was obtained this 

 season. The central area of the back, in this example, is covered 

 with small, conical, whitish or grayish papillae. The rhinophores are 

 long, tapered, subacute, with an orange ring at base. The wide 

 undulated mantle-border contains spicules.

Larger and better specimens of this beautiful species were obtained 

 this year ; they show that some of the characters of the type-speci- 

 men were due to immaturity or imperfect expansion. 



In the best examples the mantle border is broad, strongly undu- 

 lated, and projects beyond the margins of the foot. The back is 

 everywhere covered with prominent rosy-tipped, rather blunt 

 papilla? ; some of these, larger than the rest, form three rows of 5 or 

 6 along the back, and these are surrounded at base with bright 

 yellow specks. The rhinophores, in expansion, are clavate-fusiforin, 

 stout, subacute, plicated, bright red, striped with narrow lines of 

 white spots. The gills are large and long, about 24; of these 12 or 

 14 are simple, long, tapered, pinnate plumes ; behind and within 

 these there is, on each side, a gronp of 5 or 6 smaller divergent 

 plumes, which arise in a subspiral manner from a common stem. 



The color, in general, is the same as in the type. 



Harrington Sound, Hungry Bay, Long Bird Island, etc., usually 

 on the under side of a massive, brown keratose sponge (Spongia, sp.)
