180 THE RECENT CRINOIDS 
are 4(3-1 4) as usual. This specimen can be easily matched 
with numerous others from various localities in the Hast 
Indies which I have examined. 
At the time of Carpenter’s visit to Leyden he had not 
discovered the significance of the curious variation in the 
number of the elements of the IIIBr series, and hence 
from his notes could not see that his schlegelii was the 
same thing as the nobilis of the »Challenger’” Report. It is 
strange that he should have overlooked this peculiarity of 
structure in describing regalis, the more so as it is well 
shown in the figure of that supposed species. 
There is another specimen of this species in the Leyden 
Museum which was collected by Dr. J. Brock at Amboina; 
it has already been, together with other specimens of the 
same species, recorded by Hartlaub under the name of 
Actinometra regalis.
