BIOLOGICAL SURVEY OF WOODS HOLE AND VICINITY.

Thuiaria cupressina (Linnaeus). 
Verrill and Smith, 1873, p. 732, 408, etc. ( Sertu - 
laria cupressina)', Nutting, 1901, p. 364; 1904,

“Vineyard Sound, not common. — Verrill. “E. 
by S. Sankaty Light, 25 fathoms.” — Nutting. 
Vineyard Sound(?); Buzzards Bay(?); Crab 
Ledge( ?). — Survey. 
Owing to differences of opinion between our 
authorities as to the identity of specimens 
submitted to them, the Survey records for this 
species must be entered as doubtful. Speci- 
mens from the following stations were identi- 
fied by Prof. Nutting as Thuiaria cupressina: 
7537, 7581, 7603, 7605, 7607. The same speci- 
mens, from the first, third, and fourth of the 
foregoing stations, were assigned by Prof. Har- 
gitt to T. argentea, while the latter writer 
doubtfully agrees with Prof. Nutting in the 
case of the specimen from 7581, and likewise 
identifies as T. cupressina a specimen from 
station 7612.
