Fig. 68.—Genus Camptoplites Harmer, 1923 A-F. Camploplities bicornis Bvisk, 1884. A. Branch, natural size. B. View of frontal of a branch, X13. C. Dorsal view, X13. D. Two avicularia and radical tube, X25. E. Smaller avicularium arising close below the opesium, X25. F. Larger avicularium showing the digitiform process, X25. (After Busk, 1884.) tion of the branches is occasioned by the formation of a supplementary median zooecium. The ovary is distal and a large egg passes into the ovicell. The zoarium is free, erect, unilamellar, radicellate and gener- ally articulated. The zooecia have an opesium and a gymnocyst and bear heterozooecia. Typically there are one or two frontal avicularia, a lateral superior avicularium, distal spines, a proximal radicular dietella, a dorsal vibraculum (basal of Harmer and Levinsen) and a scutum on the opesium. The list of genera in this family is as follows: I. Ovicell hyperstomial. Scrupocettaria Van Beneden, 1845; Cauda Lamouroux, 1816; Caberea Lamouroux, 1816 (Selbia Gray,.
