18 Journal of Entomology and Zoology 



scribed by Doderlein from Tokyo Bay. My opinion (previously 

 published) that caryi and japoniciis are synonyms is thus strongly 

 confirmed. 



"It is the largest ophiuran, by far, hitherto recorded. Its disc 

 is about 130 mm. across. The largest specimen I have seen hitherto 

 is 1 15 mm. Doderlein, in his monograph, has 110 mm. as his maxi- 

 mum measurement."
