This species is essentially a southern form. It is common 

 in Guernsey, and I have also found it in Jersey. On the 

 English coast I believe it has only been met with at Torquay 

 (Hooker) and Budleigh-Salterton (Hincks). It was origin- 

 ally described from the coast of Egypt, and Heller finds it 

 in the Adriatic. Busk gives the following localities : — 

 Cumberland Island ; New Zealand; E. Falkland; S. Pata- 

 gonia, 49° S.; Port St. Julian, Patagonia; Strait of Magel- 

 lan ; Algoa Bay. If these habitats be all correct, the range 

 of this species is most extraordinary. No other Polyzoa — 

 probably very few marine animals — have so extensive a dis- 

 tribution. L. Boryi may at once be distinguished from the 

 next species by the presence of its oral opercula.

This I find to be one of the more common Polyzoa in the 

 Shetland seas. I have also dredged it in the Minch, the 

 most southern habitat in which the species has as yet been 

 found. Coasts of Scandinavia and Finmark (Smitt) .
