by the third day. After this the Cyanea was put into a small glass 

 dish, and given a partially killed Amelia, which it wafted towards 

 the manubrium with its arms. It did not appear to use the tentacles 

 (even when well developed) for catching or holding the prey, but 

 there seemed to be some mucous-like substance produced by the 

 manubrium, which aided in holding it. 



The ephyra developed rapidly after these meals. Additional 

 tentacles began to bud (see fig. 7). These developed in the order 

 shown in the drawings. Its habits remained sluggish, and it often 

 lay on the bottom of the tank and appeared unable to catch and hold 

 a lively ephyra or medusoid. Its sedentary habits probably caused 

 its untimely end, for one day it vanished, and suspicion rested on a 

 worm which had been put into the tank and forgotten.
