MR. G. 8S. BRADY ON THE ECHINODERMATA. 285 
Oputiocoma Goopsiri, Forbes. 
This species seems to be tolerably common on rocky ground; 
clinging chiefly to rugged or perforated stones, from the recesses 
of which it creeps slowly out on its removal from its native 
element. Several specimens were taken from five to seven miles 
east of Tynemouth, and some off Berwick. 
OpuHiocoMaA RosuLA, Link. 
Very abundant in 20-30 fathoms off the Dogger Bank, and 
less abundant northwards, on the second trip. This is common 
on our coast in almost all depths of water, and is occasionally to 
be met with even between tide marks. 
URASTER GLACIALIS, Linn. 
A few small examples of this—one of the rarest of our local 
species—were dredged in 15 fathoms, ten miles east of Tyne- 
mouth. 
URASTER RUBENS, Linn. 
Taken in the Laminarian Zone near Holy Island. 
Uraster rosea, Miller. 
One fine specimen was obtained in 25-30 fathoms, off Coquet 
Island. The diameter of the disk in this example was 3in., and 
between the extremities of the rays 83in. The arms are long in 
proportion to the disk and very tapering; the madreporiform 
tubercle very lateral. The arrangement of the tubercles in longi- 
tudinal rows is also distinctly marked. 
EcHINASTER OcULATUS, Penn. 
Two or three small specimens were met with. They were by no 
means so fine as those which are commonly found between tide 
marks in our district. 
SonastER ENDECA, Linn. 
One small individual was taken near the Dogger. 
SonasteR PApposa, Linn. 
Two or three very diminutive representatives of this fine 
species were got in shallow water near Holy Island.
