doz REPORT—1885. 
§ y. Inarticulate. 
15. Salicornaria magnifica, Busk (No. 10 of ‘ Chal.’ list). 
Genus 47.(?) Farcimia, Pourtalés. 
Smitt, ‘ Florid. Bryozoa.’ 
Hincks, ‘ Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist.’ vol. x. 5th ser. 1883. 
Zocecia calcareous, erect, branching; stem and branches composed of — 
segments united by corneous joints. Zocecia arranged in series round an © 
imaginary axis, with elevated margins and a depressed area, which is 
more or less covered in with membrane. 
‘The genus instituted by Pourtalés,’ says Mr. Hincks (op. cit. p. 199), 
‘and adopted by Smitt (‘ Florid. Bryozoa,’ Part II. p. 2), includes forms 
with a Cellarian habit and a Membraniporidan cell.’ 
1. Farcimia cercus, Pourtalés. 
2. M appendiculata, Hincks (op. cit. ‘ Annals’), p. 199, pl. vii. — 
fig. 4. 
Locality: Port Phillip Head (J. B. Wilson). 
The striking feature of the new species are the avicularia. They are 
remarkable for their size, and in structure they seem to resemble the 
lateral appendage of Scrupocellaria. 
Genus 48. Melicerita, Milne-Edwards. 
Cellaria (sp.), Waters (see Busk for other synonyms). 
‘Zoarium compressed, bilaminar, rigid, lobate, ligulate, or foliaceous; 
articulated or continuous. Zocecia usually disposed in transverse rows, | 
Surface areolated. Area rhomboid or hexagonal. Orifice sub-central, 
semicircular, or oblong; border entire, with two articular teeth below 
and sometimes also above. Operculum corresponding in form to the 
orifice, supported by a chitinous ring, incomplete above.’—Chal. Rep. 
p. 95. 
Mr. Busk says up to the present time the only known species refer- 
able to Melicerita were two, or perhaps three, fossil forms, viz. :— 
1. Melicerita Charlesworthii, Milne-Edw. 
2. a angustiloba, Busk. 
BAP) ps achates, D’Orb. (Latereschara). 
In the ‘Challenger Report’ two other species are described as 
new :— 
4. Melicerita atlantica, Busk, ‘Chal. Rep.’ pl. xiv. fig. 1, woodents, — 
p- 96. : 
5. 93 dubia, Busk, ‘ Chal. Rep.’ pl. xxxii. fig. 10. 
Family XVI. Tubucellaride, Busk 
= Cellaride (pars), D’Orb. ; Salicornariide (pars), Macgil. 
= Porinide (pars), Hincks. 
‘Zoarium erect ; radicate, composed of cylindrical internodes. Zocecia — 
disposed round an imaginary axis, convex, distinct, pyriform ; peristome
