 1965. Utinomi, H., and Kogo, I. On some comatulids from the coastal sea of Kii 

 peninsula. Publ. Seto Mar. Biol. Lab., vol. 13. 

 Deals with 19 Japanese species, 4 of which come within the scope of this 

 final part, namely: 

 Compsometra serrata [here refen-ed to Antedon], p. 281 (color, distribution; 



recorded from N. coast of Seto-zaki, Shirahama, southern Japan). 

 Eumetra aphrodite, p. 282 (color, distribution; recorded from Hikimoto, southern 

 Japan), fig. 12. [The excellent figure shows a calyx and arm bases in side 

 view, also a cirrus with 20 segments and Pj, Pj, and P3 with 7, 10 or 11, and 

 24 segments respectively, compared with counts of 16-18 (cirrus), 11 or 12, 

 15 and 19 for the specimen described in this monograph and 12-17 (cutus), 

 12 or 13, 14-16, and 18 or 19 for the one described by Gisl6n (1927).] 

 Perometra diomedeae, p. 283 (color; distribution; recorded from off Minabe, Kii 

 peninsula, southern Japan, 100+ meters), fig. 13. [The figure shows a cirrus 

 with as many as 84 relatively short segments at a total length of 30 mm. 

 (if the scale is correct), whereas 35-55 segments occur in the specimens de- 

 scribed here, their relative lengths being considerably greater. However 

 no sign of any Pi appears on the several arm bases also figured by Utinomi 

 and Kogo, so it is possible that they have a distinct species, in spite of the 

 similarity in the elaborate synarthrial tubercles.] 

 Erythrometra rubra, p. 284 (color, distribution, recorded from off Minabe, southern 

 Japan, 100+ meters), fig. 14. [The figure shows a side view of the calyx 

 and arm bases, part of Pi, and a cirrus with 29 segments, the last agreeing 

 with the count of 30 given here.]
