GENERAL DESCRIPTION. 
Form. 
Base. Adherent to rocks ; cousiderahly exceeding the column. 
Column. Flat and wrinkled when completely contracted : rising to a 
tall, somewhat slender pillar, studded Avith Ioav warts on its upper jAortion, 
hut covered on its lower two-thirds with a tough, firmly adherent epi- 
dermis, the upper edge of which is free, with a ragged foliaceous margin, 
not forming a tube. The surface of this is transversely corrugated, but 
not warted. The animal frequently expands in its low condition, when 
the flower occupies the summit of a very low cone, and is not half the 
diameter of the base. A slight margin, much wrinkled in semi-contraction, 
and forming a star of radiating furrows in closing. 
Dish. Flat or slightly concave ; outline circular. 
Tentacles. Arranged in five rows, viz. 6, 6, 12, 24, 48 = 96 ; short and 
sleudei’, diminishing from the first roAV outwards ; in ordinary extension 
not longer than one-fourth the diameter of the disk ; generally earned 
arching over the margin, the tips occasionally turned up. 
Mouth. Elevated on a strongly marked cone. 
Acontia. Not emitted, even under strong irritation, while in my posses- 
sion. Mr. Ilrodrick, however, has seen them projected from the mouth.
