Pp. i-io 8 , with Plates I-IV, and 52 figures in the text. 
The present part deals with the whole of the group Alcyonacea 
and a portion of the Gorgonacea. Most of the specimens were 
collected in the shallow littoral waters of Sharks Bay. From a 
zoogeographical point of view the great number of new species, 
principally of the family Nephthyidae, is remarkable, as well as 
the rich development of species of the genera Nephthya and 
Stereonephthya . Besides these, the new genus Nephlkyigorgia 
may have its centre of development in Western Australia 
( Entstehungs zenirum) 
In the following list only the species from Western Australia 
are mentioned, but the author adds to these accounts of many 
extra- Australian forms.
