It appears from my own counts and those of others that the cirri of large specimens may be numerically described as follows: L-LXX, 60-86, up to 90 mm. long. Gislen says that some of the segments of the proximal pinnules are expanded and that it thus "forms a transition to the Isometrinae". It is the segments of the genital pinnules along which the gonad lies that are expanded, and they are a little more ex- panded in the female

Figures are given (Fig. 5): the female pinnule is from a well preserved Terra Nova specimen with nearly complete arms which are
