Diagnostic features.—The centrodorsal is sharply conical but much wider at the base than it is high, the ratio being about :1; the bare interradial areas are usuallj' much wider than the individual peripheral sockets and are grooved; the sockets lie fairly dose together in each radial area and are arranged in two (apically) to four (peripherally) more or less regular columns; the arms are rather slender in the holotype, the ratio of the length of the division series plus the first nine brachials to the width of the first syzygy being :1 as opposed to about :1 in the two specimens of Ps. mira measured; the cirri probably taper evenly like those of mira with the terminal segments elongate. Description.—The centrodorsal is sharply conical, 4 mm. broad at the base and mm. high, its sides divided into 5 radial areas by 5 interradial furrows which are somewhat broader than the adjacent cirrus sockets. There are from 8 to 10 well- separated cirrus sockets in each radial area which are arranged in 4 more or less irregular colimins. The cirri are XIj-L, about 25, long, slender, smooth and Please note that
