Tin- animal, strande*! ii])on the volcanic island of St. Paul, in 

 the Jndian Ocean, was photographed as it lay; and an engraving 

 made from the photograph, together with the beaks, pharynx 

 and a tentacle brought to Paris, are the basis of a short ami 

 unsatisfactory account of it. The truncated arms and the 

 gradually attenuating body, with very narrow lins extending 

 along each side lor half its length, are noticeable peculiarities^ 

 EUB is also the web connecting the arms; it is questionable, how- 

 ever, how much the engraving may be relied upon. It has 

 received a generic name, but may be preferably retained in 

 <hnin(i*tn>/>lu:* for the present.
