fig. 83. . 

 Two specimens, one a young- corallum attached to the base of Sider- 

 astrea savignyana., the other a small head 81 mm. in diameter and 60 

 mm. thick, were obtained. They agree precisely with the descriptions 

 and figures of Klunzinger and von Marenzeller, the latter of whom 

 has redescribed and figured Forskal's type. 



As I think new figures desirable, they are herewith presented. 



Genus FUNGIA Lamarck.

 in determining these species. Reference is made only to his memoir.

FUNGIA PLANA Studer.

Eleven specimens. 



Several of these specimens show interesting Aariation. Six of them 

 are actually, or almost, typical I'l plana;- in four the costa? are 

 decidedly thin, and those intermediate between the tall ones have 

 finely dentate edges; the intermediate costie of one specimen are to
