Four egg-cases or "purses" from Manasquan, N. J., may in part 

 refer to this species. All contain embryos, two having very long 

 tails, thus seeming to agree with Goode and Bean's suggestion. 1 

 Three of egg-cases agree in having tendrils entire, and these contained 

 long-tailed embryos. The other egg had the tendrils coarsely cor- 

 rugated and contained a short-tailed embryo, which I cannot deter- 

 mine. The eggs are of nearly equal size, their bodies measuring about 

 2 inches. Another egg, labelled "Corsica," from Rev. R. H. Mossam, 

 contained a fully-developed embryo, unquestionably close to, if not 

 identical with, the present species. It differs from Goode and Bean's 

 figure chiefly in the absence of spines on the posterior pectoral regions. 

 If my determination be correct, the occurrence of this species on the 

 New Jersey coast is interesting, as this will prove the first record. 

 The New Jersey eggs were received from Dr. H. C. Everts.
