158 VICTORIA MEMORIAL MUSEUM. BULLETIN NO. I 



Of the 50 species reported, two are new, viz., Campanularia 

 magnified and Cryptolaria triserialis. Three others, Campanu- 

 laria gramlandica, Lafaa symmetrica, and Halecium minutum 

 have not previously been reported from the east coast of North 

 America. 



My thanks are due to Professor Nutting for his assistance 

 in this as well as other hydroid work I have done, and to my 

 wife who has made the drawings. 



Systematic Discussion. 



No family or genus has been denned in this paper because, 

 with the exception of the Genus Cryptolaria, they have been 

 defined in my West Coast paper, and are here used with the 

 same significance. With regard to the genus mentioned, there 

 has been no disagreement among the authors who have used it. 

 In the synonymy I have given the original reference for the 

 species in each case, and besides this, when possible, some 

 references to papers dealing with localities not very far distant. 

 It is for that reason that Prof. Nuttmg's paper on the Woods 

 Hole region appears so often, and also that of J. F. Whiteaves, 

 although the latter gives no definitions and little synonymy. 



Full descriptions of several of the species appear in two of 

 my own papers that are ^jfcill in manuscript, viz: "Some Beau- 

 fort Hydroids," being published by the U. S. Bureau of Fish- 

 eries, and "Some notes on New England Hydroids" being 

 published in a Bulletin from the Laboratories of Natural History 

 of the State University of Iowa.
