Chart 26. — Astrangia danse. 



Upon the chart for this coral, and those for the shell-bearing echinoderms and mollusks, the circles 

 surrounding certain stars denote that living specimens were recorded from the stations thus designated. 

 The absence of a circle at a given station denotes either that dead remains alone were recorded or that 

 the records do not indicate the condition of the specimens. This practice has not been followed 

 except in the case of shell-bearing organisms. For others, it may be assumed that the records nearly 

 always relate to living specimens.
