Habitat. —South Pacific Ocean, near Rangiroa ; September 24, 1899; about lat. 15° S., long. 148° W.; surface tow net, 8 , one specimen. [H. 126.] Funafuti Island ; December 24, 1899; shore, taken with the seine ; one specimen. [H. 128.] Gilbert Islands about one mile off Tarawa Island; January 2, 1900 ; sur- face, electric light; one specimen. [H. 137.] Marshall Islands, Arhuo Atoll ; January 24-26, 1900; surface of lagoon, electric light; seven specimens. [H. 114-120.] Same locality ; January 27, 1900; two specimens. [H. 122, 123.] The Body is thick and rounded; the fins are round, nearly circular, and rather more than half the body in length; there is a notch at the anterior but not at the posterior origin from the mantle; a broad ligament unites the mantle with the head in the nuchal region; the ar- ticulation between the mantle and the siphon consists of an elongated ridge and groove as usual in the family ; the siphon is conical and reaches just to the gap between the ven- tral arms. The Head is very broad and the eyes very large and prominent. The Arms are in order of length 3, 2, 1=4; rather thick, rounded, and tapering, with no trace of keel, or protective mem- brane; the suckers are, speaking generally, in four rows, though the arrangement is here and there a little irregular; those at the root an<l tip are in two rows, and there appear to be one or two sets of three between; they are spheroidal, oblitjue, ami of the type usual in Sepiola. In the male the suckers are s
