Fig. 2. — Canda pecten, sp. nov. 



Zooecia oval, elongated, with thin, raised margin and a spine, 

 rarely two, on either side above. Membranous area reaching half 

 way down the front wall, a thin, calcareous, diagonal sheet covering 

 the rest, no fornix or medium avicularium, except an enormous avi- 

 cularium at the base of each fork of a branch which is raised on a 

 large prominence, having frilled edges, and is long, narrow and 

 pointed, directed downwards and inwards. Grooves of the vibra- 

 cular reach beyond the edge of the zocecia, behind. The junction 

 of the connecting fibres is seen below these, and there are serrated 

 rootlets near the bases of the colonies as in Scrupocellaria ferox and 

 5. macandrei. Ooecia lie back on the median line of the stem, one 

 above the other, alternately, from their positions rather to one side
