306 Rey. T. Hincks’s Catalogue of Zoophytes 
Fam. Escharida. 
1. Escara, Ray. 
1. E. foliacea, Ellis & Solander, 
Common in deep water, Devon and Cornwall: off Budleigh- 
Salterton (very abundant), Exmouth, &e. 
2. E. cervicornis, Busk, ‘ Catalogue,’ p. 92. 
Common on stones from deep water, coast of Cornwall y 
‘Devonshire’ (Dr. Coldstream). 
Great uncertainty exists as to the synonymy of this species. 
The form here intended is the Cellepora cervicornis of Couch’s. 
“ Cornish Fauna,’ which would seem to be identical with the 
Eschara cervicornis of the ‘ British Museum Catalogue,’ judging. 
from the description in that work. Mr. Busk, however, in a paper 
on Norwegian Polyzoa (Ann. Nat. Hist. for 1856, vol. xviii. p. 82), 
expresses an opinion that these are distinct species, identifying 
Mr, Couch’s with a Norwegian form, of which a figure (without. 
deseription) is given. The figure, which is not from Mr. Busk’s 
hand, is of little value, and does not help towards a settlement 
of the point. At present I am inclined to regard the C. cervi- 
cornis of Johnston and Couch and the E. cervicornis of the. 
‘Catalogue’ as one species. The Millepora cervicornis of Ellis 
and Solander is a perfectly distinct form. 
3. EH. Skenei, Ellis & Solander. 
Not common, deep water: Torbay, on shell; off Polperro. 
“On stones and the Pinna ingens, off the Deadman ; rare” 
(Couch). ; 
2. Rererora, Lamarck. 
R. Beaniana, King. 
Vas rate: of a stone from 40 fathoms, south-west of Pol- 
perro. A very fine full-grown specimen of ‘this beautiful Coral, 
and one or two young ones, were obtained from the above 
locality. 
[Shetland (Barlee) ; off the Land’s-End (Couch)]. 
Suborder Cyclostomata, Busk. 
Fam. Idmoneidez, Busk. 
Pustu.orora, Blainville. 
P. deflexa, Couch. 
Common on stones, shells, &c., from deep water: coast of 
Cornwall, abundant; dredged close under Berry Head, on 
weed, .
