I— THE EXPEDITION of H.M.C.S. "MINER." 



No. 5. — PoLYzoA Supplement.* 



By C. M. Maplestone. 



(Plates xxxiv. xxxv.) 



I have now completed the examination of the le.st of the 

 Polyzoa in the collection forwarded to me by Prof. Haswell. 



Unfortunately they aie mostl}' in such a fraj^mentary and im- 

 perfect condition that it is impossible to satisfactorily determine 

 the greater portion of them speciticallj^ but I have been enabled 

 to add to the list of known species in the collection the following : — 



A inphiblestrum attmilus, Manzoni, sp. 



Honiera airensis, Mapl. 



Liripora lineata, McGil. 



Fasciculipora gracilis, McGil 



Heteropora pisifonnis, McGil 



Of these Hornera airensis and Heteropora pisiformis have 

 hitherto been recorded only as fossil from the Victorian Tertiary 

 deposits. Amphiblestriini a/mnlus is also found fossil in Victoria, 

 but Dr. P. H. MacGillivray records it as living in the Falkland 

 and Kerguelen Islands. 'J'he otlier two are living on the 

 Victorian coasts. 



In addition to these there are two specimens 1 liad laid 

 aside for special examination but overlooked when )>reparing my 

 previous report, which are among the most interesting in the 

 whole collection on account of the very long vibracula with which 

 they are furnished. They are the following: — 



SeLBNAKIA FLA(iELLlFEHA, Sp. HOV. 



(Plate xxxiv.). 



Zoarium (illiptical, 65 mm. long, T) mm. wide; raised in the 

 centre longitudinally. Zooecia irregularly hexagonal, rounded
