180 REPORT—1858. 
N.B. We purposely exclude from this List all reference to the Holothu- 
riadz, the species of which stand much in need of further elucidation. We 
have also given the distribution, as far as it was known to us, all round Ire- 
land, both in this List and the following one on Zoantharia.

Total number of species of Echinoderms 35, or about two-thirds of the 
British list; and of the Zoantharia 27, or about half the number recorded as 
occurring in England and Scotland. This difference will, we trust, be greatly 
diminished in a few years. Both lists have been brought down to the latest 
dates, several species having been added while the MS. was passing through 
the press. 
The districts marked from 1 to 7, are given as first introduced by one of 
the authors in the “ Proceedings of the Dublin University Zoological and 
Botanical Association,” vol. i. p. 176, and are briefly as follows :— 
1st Province, North.—From Tory Island or Horn Head, on the mainland, 
to Rathlin Island or Fair Head, embracing the two extensive Loughs, 
Swilly and Foyle, and parts of the counties of Donegal, Londonderry, and 
Antrim. 
2nd Province, North-East.—From Fair Head to Downpatrick, at the en- 
trance of Strangford Lough, embracing Belfast and Strangford Loughs, and 
parts of Antrim and Down. 
3rd Province, East.—From Downpatrick to Carnsore Point, in the county 
of Wexford, embracing Dundrum, Dundalk, and Dublin Bays, and parts of 
the counties of Down, Louth, Meath, Dublin, Wicklow, and Wexford. 
4th Province, South.—From Carnsore Point to Cape Clear, county of
