Notes on the Corals collected on the Northeast Coast of 

 Brazil. — By Arthur W. Greeley. 



The corals collected by the expedition along the coast of Brazil in 

 June and July of 1899 niay be divided into two groups, — fii'st, those 

 taken on the sandstone reefs along the northern part of the coast from 

 Pernambuco to Natal, and second, the collection made on the coral reef 

 of Maceio, Alagoas. The collecting on the sandstone reefs was very 

 hastil}' done because of the large extent of coast-line to be covered, and 

 the few species of coral obtained do not represent all the corals to be 

 found on the stone reefs. Three weeks were spent on the Maceio reef, 

 however, and the collection is probably complete for that locality.
