Isophyllia sinuosa Verrill. 



Syn. Madrepora sinuom Ellis and Sol. 178G. 



'1'his species forms spreading rounded masses, often six inches in diameter 

 and about two thick. Walls echino-costate exteriorly. The father shallow, 



open colls are generally confluent in series of from two to five, but often 

 simple. Septa very numerous, the edges divided into long, slender, sub- 

 equal teeth. Columella well developed, papillose. It differs from the pre- 

 ceding in its broader growth, more numerous and thinner septa, much more 

 shallow and narrow cells, which are about .7 of an inch, instead of an inch 

 or more, in diameter. The ridges are narrow and sinuous, often with a 

 groove at the top. — St. Thomas, West Indies ; Dr. G. H. Otis.
