Genus Bougainvillia, Lesson. 

 B. muscus, Allman. 

 " In a rock-pool, Torquay, where it occurred abundantly, 

 creeping over the bottom in small moss-like tufts " {Allman). 



Family Tubulariidae. 

 Genus Tubulabia, Linnaeus (in part). 

 T. kumilis, Allman. 

 Salcombe Bay, between tide-marks and dredged in shallow 

 water. 



The T. Dumortierii of the " Catalogue," I suspect, should 

 be referred to this species. 



Suborder Thecaphora. 



Family Campanulariida. 



Genus Campanulaeia, Lamarck. 



Section c. With branching sterna. 



C. calceolifera^ n. sp. PI. VI. 



Stem filiform, subflexuous, simply pinnate or very slightly 

 branched, ringed above the origin of the pedicels. Hydro- 

 thecae alternate, rather small and delicate, campanulate, 

 with a plain and everted rim, borne on ringed pedicels of 

 varying length. Gonothecse (female) axillary, smooth, 

 calceoliform, spirally curved at the upper extremity and 

 tapering off below ; orifice a tubular passage projecting into 

 the interior, and opening out immediately below the spiral ; 

 borne on ringed stalks. Height of the shoot about 1^ 

 inch. 



The trophosome of this species is not marked by any very 

 distinctive features. The shoots are generally unbranched, 

 and very slightly flexuous ; occasionally one or two short 

 branches occur, but the habit is eminently simple. The caly- 

 cles are of the usual campanulate shape, delicate, and graceful 

 in their proportions, and with a decidedly everted margin, 

 which gives them a very elegant appearance. The capsules 

 are produced in great numbers, and are ranged along both 

 sides of the stem, but seem to be confined to the lower half of 

 the shoot. They are perfectly hyaline, and of a unique and 

 singularly graceful form (PI. VI. figs. 3, 4). They are best 

 described as sHpper-shaped; but the upper extremity is curved 

 into a most exquisite spiral, while the lower portion tapers 

 rapidly away towards the point of junction with the ringed
