maddy. It is a most translucent species, of a pale flesh colour, with 
the plates and anchors visible as distinct glistening points under a 
lens, and having five longitudinal muscular bands. One adhered 
to the cover of a table during life, and could not be taken off with- 
out serious mutilation. The intestine is dull yellowish. Both had 
eleven tentacles, each of which apparently had five divisions, 
though I am not certain of these figures, since they were minutely 
examined after immersion in spirit, and then only the terminal 
and two adjoining divisions of the arms were distinct. The plates 
and anchors were identical throughout in both examples, and very 
characteristic (fig. 6). The plates have a somewhat hexagonal out- 
line, with a long process, like a handle, and are perforated by a 
central and six surrounding apertures, with serrated edges. There 
are two small openings in the ‘‘ handle.” The anchors, about the 
same length as the plates, are articulated to the end of the last- 
mentioned process, and present slight serrations on the flukes.
