94 ECHINODERMA OF THE INDIAN \ruSKUM, PART VII. 



seventy-eight arms 120 mm. long and cirri XXVIl. 27 — 33, 33 mm. to 40 mm. 

 long ; it is similar to the two preceding. 



Every division series in all these specimens is 4 (34-4). 



Other Records. — -"South Seas"; "Indian Ocean"; Port Denisun, 

 Queensland ; Amboina : Ceram : Moluccas ; Loyalty Islands ; Pelew Islands : 

 Uca, Solomon Islands ; New Britain ; Sulu Sea: Macclesfield Bank: Singapore: 

 St. Mathias Island ; Lelti ; Philippine Islands. 



Remarks. — A specimen from the Pelew Islands identified by Liitken as 

 "' Actinometra brachytnera'''' belonging to the Copenhagen Museum was at hand 

 for comparison with those listed above, and no differences were detected. 



Professor Kcehler records Actinometra robastipitina from Amboina, but his 

 specimen was undoubtedly an example of this species. The type of Actinometra 

 rohu/sti pinna, which I examined at Leyden, is a much mutilated example of some 

 species of Himerometra, possibly H. crassipinua, and is not an "' Actinometra" at 

 all! 



Carpenter's Actinometra peronii, the type of which I also examined at 

 Leyden, is the same thing as Miiller's Alecto hennetti.
