CABLE HAULS OF MARINE INVERTEBRATES.—HONEYMAN,. 265 
The terminal claws are double. The number of joints is 20. 
These are fringed on the lower ends with minute spines, larger 
and smaller. The claws of the LaHave Antedon cirriare single. 
The number of joints is 87 and upward. They have no spines. 
They are yellow and opaque. We have another Antedon from 
another part of the same cable. The size of this is evidently 
intermediate. Its cirri have also double claws. They are also 
spinous—more strongly than our other. The number of joints 
is greater than of the other two. We have counted 55. Re- 
garding our little Antedon as a new species we have named it 
Antedon more. 
Of Order OPHIUROIDEA—Fam. Ophiwridea—we have speci- 
mens on both Cables. On Cable II we have Ophioglypha 
sp. These also abound on the “Glacial Boulders” of the 
Halifax Fishing Banks. Vide paper in Transactions preced- 
ing. They are strong in constitution and have the normal num- 
ber of rays—/ive. 
On Cable I the Ophiwra is beautiful, delicate, white, with 
alassy spines, almost like spicules of sponges. This has six rays, 
an abnormal number. After a diligent search among authorities 
we have been able to find only one six-rayed ophiuran—in the 
Report of the Challenger, where it is described and figured and 
named as unique. In Vol. Oputuripa, plate 47, fig. 1, is 
Ophyoglupha hexactis, of Kerguelen Island, 20 to 75 fathoms, and 
Marion Island, 50 to 75 fathoms. It would be rather too much to 
expect our ophiuran, with so much difference of distance and 
depth, to be the same species. Except in the number of rays 
they are altogether unlike. Without interfering with the name 
of the other we would in the meantime assume the Family 
name, and distinguish ours as Ophiwra anne. Our specimen is 
much injured. The body is perfect ; all the rays are well repre- 
_ sented ; one is almost complete and there is no difficulty in find- 
ing a terminal part to complete it. The joints and spines of the 
other rays are plentiful in the hempen debris. 
In this debris we have also found two specimens belonging to 
Order KEchinoidea.
