BRYOZOA OF THE PHILIPPINE REGION

and forward; the poster forms a vertical arch above the extremities 

 of the anter and bears a median avicularium. The frontal is bor- 

 dered by areolar pores transformed sporadically into avicularia. The 

 zoarium is free and bilamellar. The operculum is convex. 



Genotype. — Marguetta pulchra Jullien, 1903. Recent (Atlantic). 



Genus MALLEATIA Jullien, 1903 



The aperture is formed of a curvilinear anter and of a concave 

 poster bearing a lyrule. The peristomice bears a rimule in which 

 one of the teeth contains a small triangular oblique peristomial 

 avicularium. The frontal is a tremo- 

 cyst with small pores and it bears 

 small sporadic avicularia. The zoarium 

 is reticulated and bears the apertures 

 only on one side. 



Genotype. — Malleatia rara Jullien, 

 1903. Recent (Azores). 



In spite of the presence of a lyrule 

 (?) this genus has the greatest affinity 

 with true Retepora but as the ovicell 

 and the operculum are unknown it is 

 preferable to leave it in the family in- 

 dicated by Jullien.
