30 Edward T. Browne. [No. 4 



Gonads forming oval swellings along the outer edges of the 

 lobes of the stomach, which are attached to the sub-umbrella by a 

 mesentery, extending from the base of the stomach to the umbrella- 

 margin. 



Eight broad radial canals and eight broad centripetal canals. 

 Many filiform tentacles and numerous tentacles with terminal 

 suckers on the margin of the umbrella, arranged in about 48 groups, 

 each containing three filiform tentacles and many tentacles with 

 suckers ; also an isolated filiform tentacle (?) between every two groups. 

 Sixteen marginal sense-organs, two between every two ra- 

 dial canals. Size. Umbrella about 10 — 15 mm. in width and 9 — 12 

 mm. in height.

Narcomedusae. 



Solmaris corona (Keferstein and Ehlers).

 Solmaris corona, Haeckel, 1879, p. 358. Browne, 1900, p. 732. 



Puddefjord. 0—8 m. 18. 11. 1898. One specimen. 



Umbrella 12 mm. in diameter. Gonads on the outer two- 

 thirds of the wall of the stomach. 35 tentacles and marginal lobes. 

 Usually two sense-organs on each lobe, occasionally only one. 



This solitary specimen is a full grown adult and is identical 

 with a species which I have identified as Solmaris corona, common 

 and often occurring in great shoals on the west coast of Ireland. 

 In Yalencia Harbour during 1898, it first appeared in July and 

 disappeared in November; it was abundant during July and September. 



Scyphomedusae. 

 Peromedusae- 



Periphylla hj acinthina, Steenstrup.

There are a few specimens of very early stages in the collec- 

 tion and most of them unfortunately are not in very good condition.
