At least from the times when Pontoppidan published 
his “Essay on the Natural History of Norway” (1752) L. prolifera 
has been known to occur at Norway (at Sendmere, and in the 
vicinity of Bergen, where P. was a bishop); remarkably good 
and well illustrated descriptions of this coral as well as of 
the annelid worms, and other animals associated with it, have 
been given 1768 by Gunnerus, who states: “it occurs abun-
