change the name. However, I had, until recently, overlooked the 
more definite description on p. 44, which makes it certain that this 
was the species in view. The following, is a translation of his 
description : 
“The polyp is beautiful dark red, with brown tentacles having 
red tips. Later I found a specimen with blue tentacular tips, and 
finally still another with dark green tentacles and light green tips. 
The diameter of the crown of this anemone amounts to two feet. I 
obtained this specimen at Corail in three fathoms (18 feet) of sea 
depth.”

This is a small graceful species, apt to be mistaken for the young 
of the preceding. Its column is about half an inch in diameter, 
smooth, without suckers, usually fawn-color or yellowish, tinged 
with brown or orange ; tentacles pale yellow to light orange yellow,

usually with pink tips, and a red line bebind and at the sides of the 
base, often with a white spot on front of base; disk yellowish with 
reddish or brown radii; lips scarlet red or pink. Tentacles change- 
able in length, but not retractile. It occurs in sheltered spots and 
under masses of dead coral.
