This Coralline is as remarkable for the elegance of its 

 form, as its likenefs to the feather of a pen. It is of a 

 yeilowifh-brown color, about five or fix inches high. 

 There are many of them rife together from the fame ad- 

 hering tubes, with ftiff jointed ftems. The little crooked 

 tubes that fupport the denticles are longer in this fpecies 

 than in any of the like kind, being twice as long as the 

 denticles. 



It is not uncommon among the iflands in the Eaft 

 Indies.
