BRITISH ZOOPHYTES. 273 



sometimes shells in shallow water. The zocecia are 

 oval, and are punctured all over in a curious manner, 

 the interspaces between the punctures taking, in oldish 

 specimens, the form of ridges running irregularly down 

 the cell, often crossed by similar transverse ridges. 

 The margin of the orifice is plain, but raised into a 

 distinct collar or peristome, which sometimes projects 

 considerably above the zoarium. There is frequently an 

 umbo below the orifice, also an avicularium. The ovicels 

 are " shallow, semi-lunate, closely inserted in the cell 

 above " {HincJcs, A. M. N. H., July, 1880). 



2. L. CANTHARIFORMIS, BllsJc. 



Hab. : Shetland (Barlee) . 



Described by Mr. Busk in the Q. J. M. S., viii. 

 (1860), 143, under this name, and by the Rev. A. M. 

 Norman, in an article on the Shetland Polyzoa in the 

 Brit. Assoc. Report for 1868, as a variety of the pre- 

 ceding species. 



The cells are broader than in L. Pallasiana, and 

 are granulated ; but it is not improbably a deep-water 

 variety of that species.
