190 AXTEDON .SPIC.VTA. 



First sjzygiuiu on 3rd brachial ; the next between 18 

 and 21; then an interval of — 13 joints, usually 11, 

 between successive syzygia. 



The longest and stoutest pinnules on the arm-bases are 

 those borne by the 4th and 5th brachials , the former con- 

 sisting of about 25 tapering joints being considerably the 

 larger. Third pair (on 6 and 7 br.) smaller than the first 

 pair , and the fourth pair still more so , being the small- 

 est pinnules on the arm. The length of the following 

 pinnules gradually increases but never reaches that of the 

 second pair, and their component joints are not specially 

 delicate , while they are well clothed with perisome up to 

 the arm-ends where the size again decreases. 



Disc naked, and somewhat incised; 12 mm. in diameter. 



Spread , 25 centim. 



Colour, blackish with lighter bands.

Description of an individual. 



Centrodorsal thice , discoidal , with a small , slightly hol- 

 lowed dorsal surface, and very sloping sides which bear about 

 25 cirrhi in an irregular double row. These have about 25 

 joints , the fourth of which is longer than wide ; the next three 

 are the longest and the following ones diminish gradually in 

 length, the penultimate having a tolerably strong opposing 

 spine. 



First radials barely visible ; the second oblong and not 

 united laterally ; axillaries pentagonal with wide distal an- 

 gles and relatively short, only half as long again as the 

 preceding joints. The outer edges of the axillaries and 

 of the next three or four joints bear small irregular tu- 

 bercles. 28 arms of nearly 200 joints. Rays divide three 

 times; each division of two joints, the first almost com- 

 pletely united to their fellows , and the axillary not a sy- 

 zygy. First brachials widely rhomboidal; the second of 

 about the same length but more wedgeshaped; the third
