Fig. Ul — UO. I^hoto 8. 

 From St. 43 (15 sp.). 53 (2) = 17 specimens. 



Sj). 1 (St. 43) Cd low, arched, br = 1,8 mm., IVoe dorsal surface 

 1 mm., somewhat granulated. H of Cd 1 mm. (from the Iv — s to the 

 dorsal pole). 



C. XXX 15 — 18; 3,5 — 5 mm. in two close, alternating whorls, h" 

 segment shorter than long, 2'' and 3'' cubical, 4"' L = 1 '4 X br, then 

 slowly decreasing. 5"' — 7"' (or 8"') segment with a low, transverse, eui-- 

 ved crista which from the 8"^ cirral concentrates to a small, simple 

 dorsal tubercle. Opposing spine pointed, i-ather large (h = V2 of the br 

 of the segment). Terminal claw curved, rather stout, length about the 

 same as the preceding segment. The whole cirrus rather stout. 



R — s almost concealed at the middle by Cd, a little tongue-like 

 in the corners. I Br-s 1 baso-laterally contiguous or free, h = + '4 

 br, with a small medio-dorsal tubercle. Axillary h = ^ 4 br, almost 

 hexagonal with a low, synarthrial, longitudial crista (rather slightly 

 bordered) in the proximal ^'3. Arms X, 30 — 35 mm., smooth. Br-s 1 

 united inwardly to - 3. Br 2 on the outside twice as broad. Br I 

 and 2 with a slight synai'thrial prominence similar to that of the I 

 Br series. Ex of syzygies: 3 + 4, 4-10.. distally with an interval of 

 3 oblique articulations. The proximal segments rather long. 



Pj and P-i absent. P2 12: 6,r, mm. (P' segment short, 2' a little 

 longer than broad, 3'^ L = 2 br, 4"' and 5"' segment L = 3 — 4 X br 

 slender, at the ends somewhat widened. From the 3'' segment the 

 distal ends are indistinctly collar-shaped and have spiny borders), P,, 

 mm. P3 11: 5 mm. P^ 10; 3,2 mm. with a genital gland and con- 

 siderably shorter segments. Distal p-s. 16; 5,.'i mm. (l^^', 2'' and the 

 last segments short, the other ones L = 2 br). 



Disk without calcareous granules, incised, longest diameter 4, 

 shortest 2,5 mm. Anal cone long, + 2 mm. 



Cirri white, the arms red-violet. 



.*?/). 2 (St. 43) The size of the disk as before. Anal cone 1. 5 

 mm. Coloui' a little lighter: red-grey with a light, dorsal, longiUulinal 

 band. I'or furl her details eompai'e the table.
