ever, that Wright applied to the hydroid when he reared it, and hence, 

 although the name apparently was given under a misconception, it 

 was the name originally applied to the hydroid. As up to the present 

 time there has been no classification devised that would suit both 

 medusae and hydroids, the name "inconspicua" must be used for the 

 species.

Trophosome. — Stem unbranched or sometimes with a single 

 branch; pedicels annulated proximally and distally; hydrothecaj 

 broadly campanulate, depth and width nearly equal; margin with 

 12-14 triangular teeth that may be sharp or slightly rounded. 



Gonosome. — Gonophores growing either from the stem or the 

 stolon, attached by short annulated pedicels; rather small as com- 

 pared with others of the species of this genus, oval or oblong, truncate, 

 corrugated; opening not large. 



Distribution. — Puget Sound (Calkins); north of Cabriola I., 

 Cabriola Pass. 



Clytia kincaidi (Nutting)

Campanularia kincaidi Nutting, Hyd. from Alaska and Puget Sound, 



1899, p. 743. 

 Campanularia kincaidi Fraser, West Coast Hydroids, 1911, p. 31. 



Trophosome. — Stem unbranched, pedicels slender, annulated 

 proximally and distally and sometimes with 2 or 3 annulations medi- 

 ally placed; hydrotheca small, tubular, long for the width, ribbed 

 lengthwise, the line passing down for some distance from each tooth; 

 teeth 8-10, distinctly and sharply pointed. 



Gonosome. — (not previously described) Gonangium oval or 

 obovate, gradually increasing in size from the base for about three- 

 fourths of its length and then narrowing slightly ; the pedicel is 

 much longer than in any of the other species of Clytia described in this 

 paper, having as many as 7 annulations. 



Distribution. — Puget Sound (Nutting); Dodds Narrows (Fraser); 

 Nanoose Bay, off Clarke Rock, Gabriola Pass, off Matia I., Friday 

 Harbor.
