blindly ; with four main branched interradial centripetal 
canals, and a few adradial twigs given off from the circular 
canal and ending blindly. Gonads situated on the proximal 
portion of the radial canals, and forming transversely folded 
Jamellee. 
Gonomeandrus Pe aA %) Sp. ie 
(PL XXXIII. figs. 1-4. 
Umbrella cylindrical, about 14 times as high as broad, 
slightly contracted below, with rounded summit, and with 
the lower margin divided into eight adradial rounded lobes. 
Gastric peduncle cuboidal, with a slender stalactitic prolon- 
gation at some (or all) of its radial angles. 
Stomach quadrangular, expanding down to a wide square 
mouth with slightly frilled margin. 
Circular canal with eight loops, corresponding to thie 
marginal lobes. 
Tentacles rather short, in one series, about 80 to each lobe 
(or 640 in all), hollow, cylindrical, and studded with nemato- 
cyst warts in the distal half of their length. 
Ocelli orange-brown, one above the base of each tentacle. 
Colour in formalin: umbrella colourless and transparent ; 
gonads pale yellow; ocelli orange-brown. 
Locality. Inland Sea, Japan. 
Special description.—The above genus and species are 
represented by only one specimen. Mr. Gordon Smith has 
written on the label connected with it, “‘ The only jellyfish of 
the kind I saw.” A detailed description is subjoined. 
Umbrella, The dimensions are 6°5 centim. in height by 
5 centim. in breadth at the upper end and 4°5 (in the con- 
tracted specimen) below. ‘The wall has a thickness of 
6 millim. in the middle of its length, but only about 3 millim. 
at the upper end. The eight marginal lobes are 16 millim. 
broad at the base and 8 millim. in length along the sagittal 
line; they are slightly curved inwards. ‘The clefts between 
the lobes pass obliquely upwards and outwards from below, 
and extend much higher on the outer wall than on the inner, 
so that only the distal third of the lobe is completely free. 
The tentacles are about 17 millim. in length. The proximal 
halves are transparent; the distal halves are opaque and 
(under a lens) finely granular. ‘The tentacles are attached to 
the inner aspect of the margin by long slightly narrowed 
bases, and in such a way that the lower end of the base is 
flush with the outer surface. 
The velum is moderately broad; its free edge is, as usual,
