Entalophora elegans, nom. nov. (PL 35. figs. 4, 5.)

 Bryozoaires, p. 175, pi. 30. figs. 5. 6, 



Disfcingiiished from the preceding by its more spreading habit o£ growth 

 and its very short zooecial tubes, which are less than a quarter of the 

 diameter of the branch in length. This gives the species, when seen by the 

 naked eye, an entirely different aspect to that of E. proboscidea. Calvet's 

 enlarged figure agrees fairly with my specimens, but that of the natural size 

 indicates a larger and stouter growth than I have seen. Calvet's name 

 cannot be used, as Busk's Pustalopora suhcerticiUata of the Crag is an 

 Entaloplwra. 



A few specimens only obtained.

The Madeiran specimens from deep water show very great variation ; 

 figures of three specimens are given. Fustalipora dejiexa of Hincks may or 

 may not be this species. 



Frondipora verrucosa (Lamouroux) . J. 



1897. Frondipora inaderensis, J. Y. Johnson, " Cyclostomous Bryozoa found at Madeira,'' 

 Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 6, vol. xx. p. 64. 



An examination of Johnson^s specimens in the Funchal Museum vshovvs 

 them to be the well-known Mediterranean species. I also dredged several 

 pieces. 



LiCHENOPORA RADIATA {Alldouill) . J. 



1897. Diastopora catillus, J. Y. Johnson, 1. c. p. 61. 

 Johnson^s types belong to this species, which is common off Madeira. 



LiCHENOPORA HISPIDA {Fleming). J. 



1897. Lichenopora sp)inata, J. Y. Johnson, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 6, vol. xx. 

 p. 62. 



The type in the Johnsonian collection appeared to me to be a very fine 

 condition of L. hispida such as is sometimes developed in very sheltered 

 situations (compare Hincks, pi. Ixviii. fig. 2) ; the zoa3cia terminating in 

 spines, and their basal portion often angulated, that is furnished with 

 a longitudinal rib. The species is subject to very great variation. The 

 zooecia are usually short, but sometimes very long when in an entirely 

 protected place.
