In the hatched region the occurrence according to the literature is common, although scattered. have investigated the species, overlooked its typical sessile sareotheca on the apophyses (fig. XXXIV) It is noticeable that a mamelon occurs not only on the primary but on all the apophyses in the colony. The idea that it should, as Nutting (1900) believes to be the case with other species, form the point of origin of the gonothecee, is due to inadequate investigation; the gonothecse have their point of attachment by the side of this sareotheca. Levinsen's description incorrectly gives the impression that he has had grown gonothecse before him at the time; they are, however, only quite young stages, and grown gonangia have thus not been described for this species. Polynemertesia gracillima is plainly a southern visitor to the northern waters, and has strangely enough not yet been recorded in the British waters (fig. XXXV). The 'Ingolf was able to furnish
