were torn by the dredge from the rocks, in about 15 or 20 fa- 
thoms’ depth*.

S. chelata, Linneus. 
Very common on weed, shells, &c.: tide-pools; Salcombe 
Bay, on Laminaria digitata (a favourite habitat), &c. It some-

* A small branch of this species was found by M. Milne-Edwards attached 
to aportion of the telegraphic cable which formerly connected Sardinia and 
Algeria. The piece on which the Polyzoon was growing had been taken up 
from a submarine valley, lying between Bone and Cagliari, which is from 
1000 to 1500 fathoms in depth.
