Acaharia, g. n., Gray, 1. c. p. 444. Coral very slender, branched, dichoto- 
mous, expanded in a plane ; branches and branchlets very slender, com- 
pressed, with short, swollen joints, more prominent on the older stems. Bark 
thin, hard, smooth. Cells short, broad, subcylindrical, truncated, in a single 
series on each side of the branches and branchlets, rather close together. Axis 
calcareous, solid, red, longitudinally grooved ; internodes short, swollen, 
spongy. A. divaricata, sp. n.. Gray, 1. c. p. 446, fig. 3 ( woodcut), Australia. 
Fritz Muller’s paper on Balanus armatiis is translated in vol. i. of the 
Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 1808, pp. 393-412. We refer to it here, as it con- 
tains a description of Carijoa rupicola (vide Zool. Record, 1867, p. 661). 
ZOANTHARIA. 
Malacodermata. 
Ilalocampa stimpsonii, sp. n., Verrill, 1. c. p. 319, pi. 3. fig. 1, False Bay, Cape 
of Good Hope. 
Actinia (?) timida, sp. n., Verrill, 1. c. p. 321, Hong-Kong Harbour. 
Paranthea, g. n., Verrill, /. c. p. 322. Column subcylindrical, usually short, 
smooth ; tentacles not contractile, unequal, the inner ones several times 
as long as the diameter of the body, outer ones much shorter ; disk usually 
fiat, not contractile. =l)ijsactis, Verrill (non Edw. & Haime), type P.jmllida, 
Verrill. P. armata^ sp. n., Verrill, I, c. p. 323, Hong Kong. 
Phellia incequalk, sp. n., Verrill, 1. c. p. 326, pi. 3. fig. 4 a & 5, Bonin Island. 
Should this species be generically separated from the typical Phellia, described 
by Gosse, Prof. Verrill would suggest the generic name of Paraphellia. 
Phellia clavata, Duch. & Mich.,= Caprea clavata, D. & M. (1860), not being 
P. clavata, Stimpson (1866), Verrill proposes P. americana for the species of 
Huchassaing and Michelotti. 
Phellia arctica, sp. n., Verrill, 1. c. p. 328, ocean north of Behring’s Straits. 
Dr. Collin G wooD (1. c.) mentions the occurrence of apparently two spe- 
cies of fish in the stomachal cavity of a large Sea- Anemone met with by him 
on the reefs of Pulo Pappan, near the island of Labuan. The Anemones are 
described as fully two feet in diameter ; the fishes were six inches long. But 
the specimens v^ere lost before being drawn or described.
