Nach Vergleichsmaterial aus dem Mittelmeer kann ich nunmehr mit Bestimmtheit 

 das vorliegende Material als E. capillare bezeichnen: das früher (1909 p. 29) angebrachte 

 Fragezeichen kann also nun fortfallen. 



Einige bis zu 50 mm hohe Kolonieen mit äußerst wenigen weiblichen Gonophoren. 

 Fertil noch im November. 



Fundort: Uraga-Kanal, Station 13. 13. November 1904. 



Den von mir früher (1909 p. 31) angegebenen sonstigen Fundorten sind noch die 

 folgenden hinzuzufügen: Grönland (Vanhöffen 1897), Island (Saemundsson 1902), Spitz- 

 bergen (Marktanner 1895), Nova Scotia (Whiteaves 1901), Mauretanische Küste (Billard 

 1906c), ? Macalonga-Ostafrika (Billard 1907 e), ? Antarktisches Gebiet (Billard 1906a). 



Tiefe: 350 m. 



Untergrund: Auf Schlamm. 



,Nr. 35. Eudendrium sp. (Inaba Fig. 99, 100, 101, 102.) 



Trophosome. Steni very slender, about 5 mm, branching out irregularly from a cree- 

 ping hydrorhiza, with irregulär branches, and frequently with rings where it gives rise 

 to the branches. Branches always with rings at the base. Hjdranths bowl-shaped, pro- 

 boscis conspicuous, with a row of 20 filiform tentacles surrounding it. 



Gonosome. Gonophores spherical. [The male ones growing on the lower half of 

 metamorphosed hydrantbs and their stalk, the hydranths only with traces of tentacles. 

 Female gonophores unknown. — Das ist irrig; Inabas eine Figur, hier Fig. 17, stellt offenbar 

 9 Gonophoren dar.] 



Colour. Periderm brown, hydranths red. 



Locality. Between Misaki and Jogashima, Sagami Sea, on the lower part of Sargassum. 



Date. Gonophores found in Jnlj, 1889. 



This species is very delicate and is hard to recognize, unless one be very attentive. 

 The hydrorhiza has many very irregulär curvatures; the stems are also curved in a similar 

 way; they do not branch much and are without any regulär arrangement, they are not 

 opposite. This species is very different from Nr. 34 [E. vaginatum] in the length of 

 the stems. 



Besides these two species there are two more which are probably to be referred to 

 Eudendrium, both found west of Misaki. The stems are 30 mm high, but there are no 

 gonophores, and there are but few specimens; hence they will not be described." (Inaba 1890.) 

 Diese beiden Arten sind wahrscheinlich Eu. rameum und Eu. racemosum der vorliegenden 

 Sammlungen.

,Nr. 34. Eudendrium sp. (Inaba Fig. 96, 97, 98.) 



Trophosome. Stem more than 100 mm high, mostly dendritic, the principal branches 

 mostly lying in one plane, composed of many tubes. The branchlets have in places distinct
