sheaths " calyx like," extending for half the length of the rhinophores, 

 the margin divided into a number of small blunt teeth. Margins of 

 foot rounded. 



Body semi-transparent, tinged with pink; viscera yellowish and 

 visible through the body wall. Faint pinkish brown lines on the 

 epipodial processes.

 laria loricata and Hydrallmania falcata.

 XVIII — 62. The three specimens varied in length from '5 to 1 cm. 

 One was upon Tiibularia larnyx, and was much darker in colour than 

 the other two, which were living and spawning on a species of Halecium. 



DENDRONOTUS ARBORESOENS (Mliller). 



An enumeration of the stations where this species was obtained is 

 scarcely necessary, as it occurred throughout the entire area explored. 

 Tubularia would appear to be its general habitat, and it is most 

 plentiful where Tiibularia is likewise abundant. Three varieties are 

 especially distinguishable. 



{a) The body transparent or yellowish white, and the dentritic pro- 

 cesses opaque white, 



(?>) a uniform, dull, semi-transparent pink, 



(c) red, with darker red or red-brown blotches. 



The last is the most general, and approximates well with the colonies 

 of Tiibularia on which it is usually found. 



More rarely specimens are found with the body much spotted with 

 white. All these varieties are mentioned by Alder and Hancock. 



In one or two specimens a number of small wart-like projections 

 were observable, scattered about the dorsal surface, particularly in the 

 region between the rhinophores and the first pair of processes.
