There is some variation in the depth of the sidesof the carina. The peduncle shows, more or less distinctly,a longitudinal keel on the carinal side. There are no fila-mentary appendages. It seems probable that Annandales species is related to Barnacles of the 6renMsT\legalasma. 365 M. rectum, Pilsbry, in which the auriculate structure ofthe base of the carina suggests the beginning of such atransverse expansion as is seen in this r^
