82 BERENICE!. 



Michelin gave three figures, which he referred to B. verrucosa, 

 M. Edw. D'Orbigny recognized that one of these clearly did 

 not belong to Milne Edwards' species, and named it Diastopora 

 normani. Waagen made a suggestion that this might be the same 

 as the B. compressa (Goldf.), a species to which it is unquestionably 

 closely allied. Goldf uss has not figured or described the zoarium,' 

 but there can be little doubt that it is irregular in form, and agrees 

 with those figured by Quenstedt. The two species therefore differ 

 by B. compressa being irregular instead of discoid, and having the 

 zooecia flabelliform ; the peristomes are also less raised in 

 B. normani than in B. compressa. Milne Edwards' suggestion 

 that B. compressa is indistinguishable from his D. lamourouxi was 

 not fortunate.

Affinities. This species resembles B. archiaci in its long zooecia, 

 but it has no known ocecia ; the zoaria are larger ; the zocecia are 

 longer, more sinuous, and not so markedly radial in arrangement. 

 It is nearer to B. allaudi, from which it differs in the quincuncial 

 arrangement of the orifices and the greater length of the zocecia.
