The masticatory process bears a single row of very irregular projections of varying shapes, with little lumps behind them, but there cannot be said to be any regular denticles. The radula consists of a single row of twenty-six brown teeth (figs. 25 and 26). They are of the horse-shoe shape with a fairly strong central cusp, and six, or rarely seven, lateral denti- cles. The outermost denticle is curved strongly inwards. The others are fairly straight. 9. CUTHONBLLA PARADOXA. One specimen from Winter Quarters, captured February 20th, 1902. It is yellow with traces of reddish brown and some minute reddish dots on the larger cerata. The intestines and hepatic diverticula, as seen through the integuments, are reddish cc.
