my friend Mr. H. J. Carter. It consists of fourteen species, 
of which four are probably undescribed ; the rest are well- 
known forms, but they have a definite interest as coming 
from a new locality, and one which has hitherto, so far as I 
know, been little explored. 
The following is the list of species :— 
Suborder CHEILOSTOMATA. 
Family Cellulariide. 
SCRUPOCELLARIA, Van Beneden. 
Scrupocellaria diadema, Busk. 
Range. Queensland. 
_ Family Bicellariide. 
BEANIA, Johnston. 
Beania mirabilis, Johnston. 
On shell. 
Range. Scandinavia, Great Britain, Adriatic. 
Family Membraniporide. 
MEmMBRANIPORA, De Blainville. 
Membranipora favus, n.sp. (Pl. XIII. fig. 2.) 
Zoecia oval, or hexagonal, or suborbicular (presenting 
many irregularities both in form and arrangement), of con- 
siderable depth, closely packed together, surrounded by a 
narrow brown line, which forms a kind of keel on the top of 
the cell-wall; inner surface of the margin granular; area 
occupying the whole front of the cell, closed in by a delicate 
membrane; numerous small cells of various shapes (some- 
times quadrate, with an orbicular area) interspersed amongst 
the larger ones. Avicularia none. 
Zoaritum forming a rather thick crust, and (especially in 
the absence of the membranous front wall) closely resembling 
a honeycomb. 
The species is without striking features. “The dwarf cells, 
which are present in large numbers, are, perhaps, the most 
notable peculiarity.
