Suberites sulpJiureus, Bean, XXXVII. 

 ,, tenebrosus, B., 4, XV. 

 ,, temiiculus, B., 4, I. 

 ,, virguUosus, Johnst., XXXV. 

 Genus Pohjviastia, Bowerbank. 

 With mammiform projections. Megascleres tylostyli 

 or styli. No microscleres. 



Note. I include here P. (Te^/iea) spinularia.'B. Oscar 

 Schmidt referred this species to his BadieUa. How- 

 ever the figure given by Bowerbank shows no special 

 resemblance to the symmetrical structure of BadieUa 

 (nor of Tricliostemma and Halicnemia) . Still I have 

 some doubt in regard to the systematic position of 

 this species, as it contains oxea in addition to the 

 tylostyles, and as its mammiform projections are 

 very short.
