1837. Cuvier’s ‘Régne Animal,’ Commemorative Edition, illustrated by his pupils. 
Among the plates of this beautiful work are thirteen representing Meduse. Light of 
these are devoted to undoubted steganopthalmatous species. | The following naked-eyed 
forms, or else doubtful, are copied from the unpublished plates of Peron : 
Phorcynia istiophora ; Eulimenes cyclophylla ; Equorea purpurea ; Lymnorea triedra (covered- 
eyed?) ; Favonia hexamena ; Geryonia hexaphylla (Dianea proboscidalis?) ; Berenix cariso- 
chroma, B. euchroma (this genus seems to have affinities with Willsia, but the structure of the 
peduncle and ovaries is not indicated in the drawing); Geryonia dinema (possibly 
belonging to a genus of the Sarsiade, as well as Orythia viridis) ; Orythia minima (this 
appears to be an immature Cyanea) ; Eudora undulosa (steganopthalmatous ?) ; Carybdea 
periphylla (surely not of this genus, and possibly steganopthalmatous). 
Figures are also given of Geryonia bicolor, copied from Eschscholtz; G. Dubautii (balearica) 
[possibly an Orythia], after Quoy and Gaimard; G. tetraphylla, after Chamisso and 
Eysenhardt ; Carybdea marsupialis, and Afquorea violacea, after Milne Edwards. 
1837. Lesson. ‘Prodrome d’une Monographie des Méduses.’ 
I have never seen this work. Was it ever printed? 
1837. Ehrenberg, in the ‘Transactions of the Berlin Academy,’ for the year 1835, vol. vi, gives 
two good figures of naked-eyed Medusie, the one “ Oceania pileata,’ and the other 
“ Melicertum campanulatum” (really Stomobrachium octocostatum), both from Norway, 
and already noticed in the account of our native species of the genera to which they 
belong. 
In the same paper there is a catalogue of the Meduse of the Red Sea, but all the species 
enumerated are steganopthalmatous. 
1838. J. F. Brandt. “ Ausfiihrliche Beschreibung der von C. H. Mertens auf seer Weltumsegelung 
beobachteten Schirmquallen, nebst allgemeinen Bemerkungen iiber die Schirmquallen 
tiberhaupt,” with 34 coloured plates, in the ‘Memoirs of the Imperial Academy of St. 
Petersburg,’ 6th series, ‘Sciences Naturelles,’ 2d vol. 
One of the most valuable and beautifully illustrated memoirs upon the Meduse extant. 
The naked-eyed species figured in it are Circe Camtscatica, Conis mitrata (a Turris?), 
Aquorea rhodolema, Stomobrachium lenticulare, Mesonema macrodactyla, cerulescens and 
dubium, Hginopsis Laurentii, (if the Polyenia Alderi of this work prove not to belong to that 
genus to which I have referred it, Mginopsis may prove its proper place,) Geryonia 
hexaphylla, Proboscidactyla flavicirrhata (a genus of Willsiade), Hippocrene Bougainvillii, 
and (?) Staurophora Mertensii. The figures are from the drawings of Mertens, and bear 
every mark of being faithful representations. The remaining species are Steganopthalmata, 
and are by far the best figures hitherto published of Medusze of that order. 
1840. The second edition of Lamarck’s ‘Animaux sans Vertébres,’ edited by Deshayes and Milne 
Edwards. 
The Medusz are contained in the third volume of this edition, and have been revised by 
M. F. Dujardin. The additional notes are very good, and serve to make the work a 
useful manual, as they embody the labours of recent writers, especially Eschscholtz and 
Brandt. 
1841. Milne Edwards described and figured with admirable accuracy the A/quorea violacea, in the 16th 
volume of the second series of the ‘ Annales des Sciences Naturelles.’ 
1841. Augustus A. Gould, M.D. ‘Report on the Invertebrata of Massachusetts,’ Cambridge, 
U. 8., 8vo. 
Three species of naked-eyed Medusze are enumerated as inhabiting the shores of the 
United States, viz., “ Oceania tubulosa’” (i.e. Sarsia tubulosa), “ Hippocrene Bougainvillir” 
(more probably Bougainvillea britannica), and “Stomobrachium lenticulare :” the two latter 
identified with Brandt’s species of those names.
