Finds of Polyplumaria ftabellata in the Northern Atlantic. one or two alternating apophyses. The apophyse proceeds asymmetrically from the base of a cauline hydrotheea; this is surrounded by a pair of supracalyeine sareotheese, and a third sarcotheca situate proximally and a little to the side of the median line, somewhat removed from the base of the hydro- theca, on the side of the median line opposite to the apophyse. The hydrocladia are divided by trans- verse nodes into internodia, which have about the middle a hydrotheca with a supracalyeine pair of sareotheese, on low apophyses near the opening of the hydrotheca, and a proximal, unpaired sarcotheca in the median line near the proximal end of the internodium. The basal internodium on the primary hydrocladium has two proximal unpaired sarcothecae in the median line; at the base of this inter- nodium's hydrotheca there appear, in fertile colonies, apophyses to the secondary hydrocladium, which is of the same structure as the primary. The hydrothecae are on the hydrocladium about twice as long as broad; on the stem somewhat shorter; they have a somewhat outward curving opening margin, and are fused throughout their whole length with the internodium. The gonothecse are situate on the stem or close under the base of the proximal hydrothecae on the primary and secondary hydrocladia; they have a short, often rudimentary stalk. The gonothecae are pear-shaped, often curved, rounded off somewhat asymmetrically distally, with a broad opening; they have two sarcothecae basally.
