Sertularta pulcliella, D’A. W. Thompson. This is described as 
a minute species with one gonotheca to each hydrocaulus. The 
specimen erroneously (?) assigned by me to this species was small 
and barren, but a larger one since obtained from Queenscliff is five 
or six inches in height, with several gonotheca?. 
Piphasia sub-carinata , Busk. Port Stephens (Mr. Haswell). 
Scrtularella divaricate Busk. Port Stephens (Mr. Haswell). 
Se.) tularella simplex , Hutton. Though the specimens found are 
simple in habit, I doubt whether it is distinct from S. polyzonias. 
Thuiaria ambigua , D’A. W. Thompson. This name must be 
abandoned, as the species is no doubt the same as Mr. Busk’s 
Sertularia unguvculata. His specimens were from Swan Island, 
Banks Strait, but it is one of our commonest species. 
Aglaophenia divaricata , Busk. Port Jackson (Mr. Haswell). 
Plumularia campanula , Busk. Port Stephens (Mr. Haswell), 
Williamstown. 
Sertularta pumiloides , Bale. I am now inclined to consider 
this a variety of S. minima , D’A. W. Thompson, specimens from 
Isew Zealand appearing to be intermediate, but further examina¬ 
tion will be necessary. 
Thuiaria lata, Bale. Specimens recently obtained at Queensclift* 
are six to eight inches in height, with stems fully £ of an inch in 
diameter at the base. Port Stephens (Mr. Haswell). 
Aglaophenia superba, Bale. The pinna? are sub-alternate, some¬ 
times nearly opposite. The calyele has normally three teeth on 
each side, but the pair next the back are sometimes obsolete, or 
nearly so. ihe circular apertures of the lateral sarcothecce are 
often united with the wide opening in front, the upper one 
especially being sometimes quite merged in it. Fine tufts found 
at Queenscliff. 
Aglaophenia ascidioides, Bale. This species, like the last, has 
three teeth on each side of the calycle, but the pair next the back 
are often obsolete, and the description was taken from such a 
specimen. The tubular orifices of the lateral sareotheca? are 
sometimes united to the wide front aperture, but I have not found 
them entirely merged in it. The cauline sarcotlieca? have some¬ 
times three or four circular orifices. 
Aglaophenia ilicistoma, Bale. The pinna? are alternate or sub- 
alternate.
