Halecixjm wilsoni Calkins. — (p. 49). Many fine specimens 
were dredged in Ships channel, Barkley sound, in 25 fathoms., 
Gramm aria immersa Nutting. — (p. 51). A fine large speci- 
men was obtained at Dodds narrows by dredging. 
Lafcea dumosa (Fleming) (p. 51). Common everywhere 
from below low tide mark to the depth of the deepest dredgings 
made (about 30 fathoms). Found in materials from Banks 
island, Departure bay, Dodds narrows, Ucluelet and Port 
Renfrew. 
Lafcea gracillima (Alder), — (p. 52). Found as plentifully 
and under much the same conditions as the preceding, in all the 
localities mentioned except Banks island. 
Abietinaria abietina (Linnaeus). — (p. 57). Common in 
dredged material but not a shore form. Found at Banks 
island, Departure bay, Dodds narrows, and Ucluelet. 
Abietinaria amphora Nutting. — (p. 58). Several fine speci- 
mens, loaded with gonophores, were obtained near low-tide at 
Ucluelet and Port Renfrew and one specimen was dredged at 
Dodds narrows. 
Abietinaria angtjina (Trask). — (p. 58.) Found in shallow 
water at Port Renfrew and Ucluelet. 
Abietinaria filicula (Ellis and Solander). — (p, 60). Some 
specimens were obtained by Mr. John Macoun along the shore 
at Beacon Hill Park, Victoria, and some were dredged at Dodds 
narrows. 
Abietinaria greenei (Murray). — (p. 61). One of the very 
common species on the Vancouver Island coasts. It does not 
seem to thrive where the water is at all foul but where the water 
is clear it may be found growing in large clusters under over- 
hanging rocks or in crevices often near the low tide mark but 
sometimes at a much greater depth. The finest specimens were 
obtained from Port Renfrew and Ucluelet, but others were 
found in Departure bay and Dodds narrows. 
Abietinaria traski (Torrey). — (p. 63). Somewhat common 
in dredged material in Departure bay and Dodds narrows. 
The stem is slender but rather rigid and the relatively short 
branches break off from the stem rather easily, hence it is not 
always a simple matter to get a perfect specimen.
