ScHTZOPORELLA INSIGNIS, Hincks, PI. IX, Fig. 8. 



Zooecia ovate, distinct, hyaline ; a row of elevated puncta 

 (occasionally perforations), traversed by a continuous narrow 

 line, enlosing an area on the front, and extending along the 

 margin above the mouth ; one or more similar marks on 

 each side below the mouth ; on the front of the cell, in the 

 centre of the circumscribed area, is a small white elevation ; 

 mouth semicircular with a well-marked deep sinus in the 

 lower lip, the entrance slightly narrowed. Ooecia large, 

 globose, whitish. 



Port Wakefield, South Australia, Mr. T. Smeaton. 



This, one of the most beautiful species of the genus, has 

 been previously described by Mr. Hincks (Ann. and Mag. 

 Nat. Hist. August 1881), from South Africa. The markings 

 are very peculiar. They are lenticulai-, divided in halves by 

 a continuous narrow thread-like line ; they frequently 

 become perforations. The Ooecium has not previously been 

 described or figured. 



Smtttia obscura, n. sp., PI. X, Fig. 4. 



Zooecia confluent, indistinct, small, surface covered with 

 perforations and tubercles ; mouth with a denticle supporting 

 an avicularium with a rounded mandible. Ooecia globular, 

 sub-immersed. 



Lome, Mr. W. H. Wooster. 



I have only seen a single very small specimen forming a 

 little tube, which has evidently surrounded a sponge or 

 small branch of seaweed. The zooecia are very indistinct ,; 

 the surface occupied by round foramina, among which are 

 interspei'sed calcareous nodules. These nodules are more 

 abundant about the mouth, the form of which they obscure. 

 A small avicularium can, however, be seen on a rounded 

 denticle on the lower lip. The ooecia are small, considerably 

 immersed, without perforations or tubercles. 



FaSCICULIPORA L.EVIS, n. sp. 



Zooecia very long, united in close bundles, or occasionally 

 single ; orifice dimidiate ; surface smooth. Ooecia bullate 

 enlargements at the bases of the fasciculi ; surface closely 

 punctate. 



Victoria, Rev. Mr. Porter.
