This species has the form of Geomaleus, but the genital organs open 
below the pulmonary opening; the ovotestis is small and globular, the 
albumen gland very large; the penis is long, and, when retracted, lies 
across the renal organ; the spermatheca is large and flask-shaped; there is 
no prostate gland, and the retractor of the penis is attached to its anterior 
end, 
The retractor muscles of the tentacles are two—one on each side, and 
the retractor of the buccal mass is quite distinct from them, and originates 
much further back, on the right side. The teeth are arranged in slightly 
arched transverse rows; they are 32:1:32 on each row. The central tooth 
has a cusp on each side; the other rachis-teeth a cusp only on the outer 
side; the laterals decrease in size outwards. The laterals change gradually 
into the rachis-teeth, but there are about 10 rachis and 22 lateral teeth on 
each side.

KoxoPHORA MARMOREA. r 
Body smooth, rounded above, scarcely distinct from the foot; tail 
rounded; back with a central groove with lateral branches sloping obliquely 
backward ; colour blackish, marbled with pale brown on the back; an

I have only seen a single specimen, which was collected by Mr. F. J.

[Read before the Otago Institute, 10th September, 1878.) 
Domo his voyage with Captain Cook, in 1778, J. R. Forster described a 
shag, which he said was found in New Zealand and Terra del Fuego, under
