6 Records of the Indian Museum. [VOL.V, 
from New Britain, recorded by Miss Thornely (1899, p. 454) as 
Gonothyrea longicyatha. 
Locality : Found growing on the type specimen of Scalpellum 
sociabile, Annandale, from Bali Straits (Java), Malay Archipelago ; 
depth 120 fathoms. 
Distribution.—Bale’s specimeus were found at Port Jackson, 
East Australia ; Nutting has recorded the species from Maui, one 
of the Hawaiian Islands (Nutting, 1905, p. 943). 
Campanularia, sp. indet. 
A few specimens growing upon a type specimen of Scalpellum 
squamuliferum were in so poor condition that I have not ventured 
toname them. ‘They are Campanularians with stems (up to 12mm. 
high) which are generally unbranched, although occasionally smaller 
replicas of the main stem spring from it. The stem is topped by 
a hydrotheca with exceedingly delicate walls which have collapsed 
so thoroughly that nowhere was the margin visible. On this ac- 
count the structure of the rim, an important diagnostic character, 
could not be observed. 
The general structure of the recognisable portions of the speci- 
mens is similar to that of a gigantic Clytia johnstoni, Alder: stems 
with about 15 rings at the base, and about 3 below the hydrotheca, 
the median portions being smooth except Phere regeneration has 
occurred. Hydrothece similar to those of Clytia johnstoni in shape, 
and in the minute structure of the base, remainder unrecognisable. 
No gonosome is present.

This form occurs in abundance on specimens of Lytocarpus 
pheniceus. A creeping hydrorhiza meanders over the posterior 
portions of the stem and branches of the Plumularian, sending off 
here and there a hydrotheca or gonotheca. ‘The hydrothece are 
small and colourless, often asymmetrical in shape, with firm walls, 
marked 1n some cases by exceedingly faint corrugations, and grace- 
fully everted round the margin. ‘The hydranthophore is not dis- 
tinctly indicated, for the hydrotheca gradually diminishes in diame- 
ter from the margin until the hydrorhiza is reached, except for a 
slight bulging about the middle. In some cases (as in pl. iv
