280 CANON A. M. NOEMAN ON THE POLYZOA 



3896. Tervia Folinii Calvet, Camp, dii ' Caiidan,' Bryozoaires, p. 265, pi. 7. figs. 1-3. 

 1906. Filbparsa irregularis, Calvet, Exped. Sci. ' Travaiileur ' et ' Talisman,' Bryozoaires, 

 p. 472. 



Zoarium branching at wide angles of 45° or more ; zooecia in groups 

 usually o£ three(2-5); other zooecia are scattered on the face of the branches; 

 punctured both above and below, and dorsally marked by pellucid lines 

 indicating the margins of the zooecial chambers. 



Var. 1, typical. Zoarium stout, groups of zooecia shorter than the 



diameter of the branch, not united closely together in wing-like 



arrangement (PL 34. figs. 1-3). 

 Var. 2, pennata, var. nov. Zooecia united in pretty wing-like groups of 



usually five tubes of considerable length, equalling the diameter of 



the branch (PI, 34. figs. 4, 5). 

 Yar. 3, superba, J. Jullien. Branches Yevj slender ; zooecia very long, 



exceeding in length the diameter of the branch, rarely in groups 



of more than three, often of only two, the outermost the longest 



(PI. 34. figs. 6, 7). 



This is a very variable species, to which I feel confident that the foregoing 

 forms should be referred, and I am also disposed to believe that the two 

 species of J. Jullien, Tervia solida and T. discreta, are also only conditions 

 of jF. irregidaris. 



Dredged in 50-70 fathoms off Madeira {A. M. N.) ; Porto Santo to the 

 south of Cima in 90 fathoms (^De Noronlid).

I saw several specimens in the museum at Funchal, and Padre Schmitz 

 was so kind as to give me one of them ; but it was not until after an examina- 

 tion of the type specimen in the British Museum that I was satisfied as to 

 the correctness of my determination. The fact is that the mouths of the 

 zooecia are not strongly pectinated as in Busk's figure, and indeed in the type 

 specimen itself the indications of such irregular margins are only slight. 



Entalophoea proboscidea {H. M.-Edwards). (PI. 35. figs. 1-3.)

Common and very fine. A specimen is figured for comparison with the 

 following species. Senhor de Noronha has also sent it to me from Porto 

 Santo.
