DURING THE SUMMER OF 1907. 219 



(c) Like the last, but the disk dull piuk, and the mouth area vivid 

 rose-red. 



(d) Column as (a). Disk dull white, smudged with yellow. Ten- 

 tacles a fine rose-red, inner faces darkest, scarlet ring not distinguishable, 

 basal lines chestnut. 



(e) Column as (a). Disk red. Tentacles with an indistinct white 

 ring, no scarlet band. 



(/) Column dull orange, summit rod, the fosse blue. Disk cobalt 

 blue, two red circles around the mouth. Tentacles dull orange-brown, 

 red ring well defined, basal lines faint. 



In others the column was blotched with scarlet. 



In all cases the warts were white. The stomach frequently everted 

 to a considerable extent. 



The food of this species appeared to be varied, a full-sized Spatangus 

 purpureus and larger shells of Cardium and Fstonrnohia were ejected 

 after capture, and considerable masses of Tuhularia, though this may 

 have been obtained in the trawl. Those kept alive swallowed Dcndro- 

 notus arlorescens with avidity, but refused Tritonia hovibergi. 



TEALIA CORIAOEA (Cuviei). 



The large deep-water form, described as Actinia tuhcrculata l)y Cocks 

 and Tealia tuhcrculata by Cunningham, was obtained from various 

 localities. 



The colours are generally pale and the warts on the column large. 

 The tentacles 160 in number; in several there was a bifurcation of one 

 or more. 



Usually attached to shells (dead). Near the coast, in shallov/ water, 

 specimens resembling the ordinary shore form were obtained.
