Obelia longissima (Pallas). — (p. 39). A few specimens from 
Departure bay, some from Dodds narrows in poor condition 
and some from the material from Banks island. 
Obelia plicata Hincks. — (p. 39). Not common, but a few 
good specimens were obtained by dredging near the rocky ledge 
in the bay. 
Calycella pygmasa Alder. — (p. 41). Common in Departure 
bay and Dodds narrows. 
Calycella syringa (Linnaeus). — (p. 42). Plentiful in the 
material from Banks and Queen Charlotte islands. 
In my former paper I discussed these two species at some 
length. Since that paper was written I have had the oppor- 
tunity of studying material from many localities along the 
Atlantic coast only to find that the same differences exist there 
as here. The difference in size seems to be rather definite, but 
it seems strange when so many specimens of the smaller form 
have been found that the gonosome has never appeared, while 
it is commonly found with the larger form. Until a gonosome 
is found with the smaller or until its life history is further worked 
out than it is at present, it is impossible to say whether or not 
it is a distinct species. For the present, on account of the 
difference in size, it seems better to retain the two specific names. 
Cuspidella humilis (Alder). — (p. 44). Common on Lafoea- 
gracilMma dredged outside of the main entrance to Departure 
bay, 25 fathoms. 
Lovenella producta (Sars).-(p. 44). Few specimens 
growing on serpulid tubes in material dredged in Dodds nar- 
rows. 
Halecium annul atum Torrey. — (p. 46.) Growing on algae 
at Port Renfrew and Dodds narrows and on stalked ascidians 
at Ucluelet. 
Halecium densum Calkins. — (p. 47). Excellent specimens 
of this species were obtained from Port Renfrew at low tide, 
and from Ucluelet at a depth of 30 fathoms. 
Halecium halecinum (Linnaeus). — (p. 47). A single colony 
dredged in 10 fathoms at Ucluelet. 
Halecium washingtoni Nutting — (p. 50). A few speci- 
mens were dredged at Dodds narco 1
