OccMS in profusion on shells, stones, and steins of Gorgonids. On many of 

 the stones from Stn. 2 the surface is practically covered with a densely inter- 

 woven mass of these delicate little tubes. As a rule the branching tubes, inter- 

 sect, the individuals preserving their identity, one tube passing over another, 

 but m several instances what appears to be a true ana.stomosis of the tubules 

 was observed.

Only from the X.Z. area, where it occurs both adherent to stones and free. The 

 specimens are not particularly robust.

 yoim.g stage of X. lucifuga as figured by Sidebottom (S., 1904, etc., RFD) is

Station 2. 



Fine and typical specimens occur on the stones from this Station. 



6. Nubecularia bradyi, Millett.

hradyi. Heron- Allen and Earland, 1914, etc.. FKA. 1915, p. 550, pi. xl,figs. 8-10. 



Station 6. 



Two specimens, neither very typical, and which might perhaps be described 

 as nul)ecularine miliolids. N. bradyi is a common form in tropical and sub- 

 tropical Pacific gatherings, and it is interesting to record the form from N.Z. 

 waters, from which it has also been recorded as not uncommon by Cushman 

 (CV 1919, RFNZ, p. 636, pi. Ixxv, fig. 6).
