82 Rev. T. Hlncks's Catalogue of Zoophytes. 



the following species of freshwater Polyzoa have been recorded 

 by Mr. Parfitt in his ' Catalogue of the Zoophytes of Devon,' 

 which forms part of a fauna of the county, upon which he has 

 been long engaged*. 



Order PHYLACTOLiEMATA. 



Suborder Lophopea. Family PlumatellidaB. 



Genus Lophopus, Dumortier. 



L. crystallinus, Pallas. 



In a pond near Exeter, attached to the roots of Olyceria 

 Auitans {Parjttt). 



Genus Plumatella, Lamarck. 

 P. repenSj Linn. 



Note. — Mr. Parfitt records the occurrence of AUman's var. a 

 on the leaves of water-lilies in the Clist river, near Bishop's 

 Clist. 



P. limnas, Parfitt. 

 On an old shell of Anodon cygneus in the canal, Exeter 

 [Parfitt). 



P. Uneata, Parfitt. 



On the leaves of water-lilies in a pond in Veitch's old 

 nursery, Exeter (Parfitt). 



P. emarginata, AUman. 



I learn from Mr. Parfitt that, since the publication of his 

 Catalogue, he has discovered this interesting form in the river 

 Clist, at Bishop's Clist. This is, I believe, the first record of 

 its occm-rence in England, though Prof. Allman obtained it in 

 various parts of Ireland. 



Genus Feedeeicella, Gervais. 



F. sultana J Blumenbach. 



Near Penzance [Couch). Mr. Parfitt informs me that it 

 occurs plentifully in one or two places in Cornwall. 



The affluence of the South-western fauna is abundantly 

 proved by the foregoing Catalogue and Supplement. As I 

 have remarked before, it is brought out strikingly by com- 

 paring the present list with the largest previously published, 

 Mr. Alder's excellent ' Catalogue of the Zoophytes of North- 



* In this work an additional habitat is given for the rare Aglaophenia 

 pennatula, which may be inserted here : — *' Several 'tufts of iive or six 

 plumes each, of the typical form, were dredged in Salcombe Bay by F. 

 Walker, Esq The plumes measure from 4 to 5 inches in height."
