The foregoing list of Barents- Sea Polyzoa embraces thirty- 

 two species, of which six appear to be new. It compares very 

 favourably with the results in this department of the Arctic 

 expedition under Sir G. Nares, by which only seventeen 

 species were obtained. 



Marenzeller mentions, in addition to the species in Mr. Grant's 

 collection, the following seven species : — Hornera lichenoides, 

 L. ; Alcyonidium gelatinosum, L. ; Scrwpocellaria inermis. 

 Norm. • Membranipora Flemingii, Busk,* Eschara cervicornis, 

 Pallas (probably = Porella compressa, Hincks) ; Discopora 

 coccinea, Abildg., form ventricosa, Hass. ( = Mucronella ven- 

 tricosa, Hassall) ; Gellepora ramulosa, form avicularis ( == Cel- 

 lepora avicularis, Hincks). 



BRACHIOPODA. 



Brachiopoda were rarely met with in Barents Sea. Dr. 

 van Lidth de Jeude mentions Terebratula cranium as having 

 occurred off the north coast of Norway. 



PTEROPODA. 



Dr. van Lidth de Jeude records Clio borealis and Limacina 

 arctica.
