In Mr. Cuming’s collection is a specimen without apertural tube, 
attached or slightly burrowing in the very same kind of coral as Dr. 
Hornbeck’s specimen. A detached tube, bent like a fishing-hook, 
about 60 m. long, and agreeing in sculpture and calibre with the 
apertural tube above described, is also found in Mr. Cuming’s col- 
lection.
