Gorgonia. Verrill states, 1. e. p. 414, that all the 17 species of this genus, 
as restricted by Edwards, i. e. the 3rd section of Kolliker, are from the west 
coast of America. The Panama species fall into two groups — 1. Coenenchyma 
with double spindles, both long and short; 2. Coenenchyma with both 
double spindles and double wheels. He proposes to establish these as sub- 
genera, calling the first Litigorgia^ the second Eugorgia. See also Verrill,

& Haime, Verrill, 1. c. p. 404. — X. pe7'uana, Verrill, = ? Plexaura reticulata, Ehr., 
— P. reticulata, Philippi. Verrill, 1. c. p. 405, gives this species a new name, 
because, 1, it is not the Gor. reticulata, Ellis ; 2, it may not be the P. reticu- 
lata, Ehr. ; 3, although reticulata ” might be a somewhat appropriate name 
for it if considered a Plexaura, it becomes very inappropriate when referred 
to a genus in which there are so many species that are actually reticulated 
throughout, while in this the reticulations are few, irregular, and often en- 
tirely absent. 
The following species are referred by Verrill, 1. c. p. 406, with doubt, to
