Fig. LXXII. Finds of Sci tiilaria mirabilis in the Northern .\tlantic. Gen. Hydrallmania (Hincks). Upright colonics with bilateral sessile to slightly imbedded hydrothecae. The hydrotheca aper- ture is furnished with two lateral teeth, between which there is a smaller abcauline and a larger ad- cauline sinus; median teeth lacking. In each of the two sinuses there is fastened a membrane, so that the closing apparatus consists of two membranes, the adcauline with a free distal part. The polyp has a well developed abcauline blind sack. The diagnosis as given coincides with Levinsen's definition (1913 p. 305); we have here merely added the structure of the polyj) body. — Levinsen points out that it may be considered doubtful whether a separation between IlydralliiKDiia and Srrf/tlaria really is altogether jnstified, and the observations noted in the following may to a certain degree serve to accentuate the dubiousness.
