48 A. E. Verrill — Additions to the Fauna of the Bermuda*. 



The column is usually streaked with light red and pale pink, much 

 as in crucifera, but the tentacles are longitudinally striped with 

 green and white, one of the green stripes on the outside and two on 

 the inside being dark green, while the lateral ones are light green ; 

 there is often an inner median streak or spot of yellow or orange ; 

 the bases are surrounded by dark green lines which run in on the 

 disk as radial lines. The disk is generally lined or striped radially 

 with green and white, variegated with orange and dark green spots. 

 The lips are bright yellow, edged with green. The suckers are 

 bright red and form short rows on the upper part. 



There are usually only 6 or 12 of the primary and secondary ten- 

 tacles that have more or less evident transverse raised ridges on the 

 inner face of the tentacles. One of these usually occupies the inner 

 end of each of the six infoldings of the disk. 



It is sometimes 150 mm or more in diameter. 



Hungry Bay ; Castle Harbor ; Harrington Sound. It lives 

 between stones and in crevices of rocks and corals. 



Lebrunia Dance (D. & M.) Ver. 



Verrill, Amer. Journ. Sci., vii, p. 46, fig. 15, 1899. These Trans., x, p. 555, 

 pi. lxvii, fig. 3 ; pi. lix, fig. 1, 1900. 



Plate VI. Figure 1. 



A number of large specimens of this species were obtained. They 

 varied considerably in color, but none were distinctly green like 

 those obtained in 1898. 



The column, tentacles, and disk were generally light yellowish 

 brown or fawn-color. The branchioe were usually darker brown, 

 often light umber-brown or chocolate-brown. The tentacles often 

 had pale tips. The gills in extension were usually much longer than 

 the tentacles ; they were much branched arborescently, but they had 

 few or no distinct rounded acrorhagi. 



In this last character and in color they differed decidedly from 

 the I 898 specimens, described and figured by me in 1900, and agreed 

 nearly with L. neglecta, as described by McMurrich, from the 

 Bahamas. 



Phellia simplex V., sp. nov. 



Column slender, elongated, often vermiform, changeable, covered 

 with a closely adherent, brownish or dirty epidermis, except close to 

 each end. 



Tentacles about 24 ; inner ones slender, tapered but little, longer 

 and larger than the outer ones, and equal to the diameter of the 

 disk ; outer ones small.
