Vincidaria nov<s-liollan(li(B, Haswell, " Polyzoa from the Queensland Coast," Proc. Linn, Soc. N, S. Wales, vol. v. pt. i. p. 41, pi. iii. fig. 3. The zoarium of the Darnley-Tsland species is always tubular, or, as we may call it, in the Vincularia-ior'm. It has neither avicularia nor ovicells, and the " marginal tuberosities '"* are only occasionally found. The oral aperture is rounded below. This is undoubtedly the V. novce-hollandice of Haswell, but does not seem to be the Vincularia gothica, Busk (Challenger Rep. p. 72), which he, however, unites with novw-hollandice and with Vincularia steganoporoides^ Goldstein. This last is larger than the Darnley-Island specimen, and it seems open to doubt whether it should be placed here or with gothica. I still feel doubtful about the Steganoporellidee, but it seems right to follow Mr. Hincks as long as I have not made an exhaustive study of these families; but in attempting to bring this and the family Microporidse into order we get very elaborate descriptions of the division of the zooecium into various chambers. In many cases it seems that it would be simpler to say that the anterior portion is prolonged by a tubular extension; in fact, the chamber for the polypide is flask-s
