PHOLADIDA. 
133. PHOLAS CHILENSIS, Mol. 
Common at Ancud (Chiloe), and regarded as a delicacy by the Chilotes. 
BRACHIOPODA. 
134. WALDHEIMIA VENOSA, Solander. 
This fine species occurs plentifully in Possession Bay and various other localities in the 
eastern part of the Strait of Magellan. Numbers of live specimens were dredged off Cape 
Possession, in about fifteen fathoms water, and preserved in spirit. The largest specimen 
procured, whieh is not much inferior in size to that described and figured by Mr. David- 
son in the * Annals and Magazine of Natural History" (ser. 3, vol. xx. p. 81), was dredged 
at Port Famine in January 1869. To the westward of Port Famine I have not met with 
it. The specimens of this species collected by me are by far the largest recent Brachio- 
poda in the British-Museum collection. 
185. WALDHEIMIA DILATATA, Val. 
This species is also to be met with abundantly in the eastern part of the Strait of 
Magellan. All the specimens obtained, which were in general associated with individuals 
of W. venosa, were of small size. 
136. TEREBRATELLA MAGELLANICA, Chemn. 
This species is also common in the Strait of Magellan. I have dredged it from the 
eastern entrance as far west as Port Gallant. They are not unfrequently distorted in 
shape. 
TUNICATA. 
137. CYNTHIA GREGARIA, Less. Cent. Zool. pl. lii. fig. 3; Voyage du Coquille, tom. ii. 
p. 435. | 
This species, discovered by Lesson at Port Lous, in the Falkland Islands, I met with 
in the Strait of Magellan, and also at Stanley Harbour, Falkland Islands. 
138. CYNTHIA VERRUCOSA, Less. Cent. Zool. 
I only met with this curious species at Stanley Harbour, Falkland Islands, among the 
masses of Macrocystis lying on the beach. 
139. CYNTHIA MAGELLANICA, n.s. (Pl. LVIII. fig. 2.) 
This species, zich appears to be undescribed, I met with principally in Peckett 
Harbour, on y řatagonian Coast of the eastern part of the Strait of Magellan. The 
individuals uo ee in masses, and were in general of a globose form. The 
_ test is rather thin, ‚and of a greenish hue. The specimen dissected by me pre- 
~ sented nothing specially interestin g in the form or arrangement of its organs. |
