 Miss J. Stephens drew my attention to an endophytic organism growing in the sponge Terpios 

 fugax, and giving it a deep blue colour. The organism is apparently a Schizomycete (see Topsent, 

 Arch. Zool. exp. et gen. '3) viii 1900). Terpios fugax is rare on Clare Island, but not uncommon at 

 extreme low- waU:l mark on tin' islands of Clew Bav.
