. The Cambridge natural history. Zoology. Fig. â Trochocystis bohemieus, viewed from two sides. (After Jaekel.) Moutli. skeleton; but in the presence of a differentiated stem and the development of only two rays, it is more differentiated. The anus is on one of the fiat sides, covered with a flat plate acting as a valve. The members of this group were formerly confounded with Cystoidea, from which they differ in the absence of the characteristic pores. Trochocystis, the genus figured, is devoid of any horn-like outgrowths of the calyx. CLASS IV. CYSTOIDEA Pelmatozoa with respiratory organs in the form of " diplo- pores" or "; In a great many cases there is a stalk, but in other cases this is atrophied, and the animal is attached by the base of the calyx. The radial canals run for a shorter or longer distance over the calyx, but the plates of the calyx themselves are not modified for them. Either they run in simple grooves, or they are protected by a special series of plates lying above the plates of the calyx. The terminal portions of the radial canals are in all cases free, supported by unbranched a,rms consisting usually of a double row of ossicles. These arms are termed " ; It will be gathered from the description just given that the fingers and the respiratory organs distinguish Cystoidea from.
