My speciniens conipletely agree with the descriptioii of Hincks. Only one point has 

 to be mentioned, viz. the position of the gonothecae. These are situated in the axils of the 

 branches, as Hincks states, but they do not lie in the median line but on one side; hence 

 it occurs occasionally that two gonothecae are found side by side in one axil. Moreover, 

 there is a nematophore in the median line, whether tliere is a gonotheca or not. 



The stem reaches the height of 25 mm.

 Trophosome. Stem very slender, distinctly wavy, with alternate branches. There 

 are three joints between each two successive branches; of these the uppermost Joint bearing a 

 brauch is thick, while the lowermost one is thin and has an indistinct circular constriction.
