Sars has besides, at another time, evidently confounded an Edwardsia proper with a H. duode- cimcirrata. In the museum of Christiania there are several now exsiccated specimens, labelled 0gsfiord, Finmark Sars, and determined probably by himself as Edwardsia duodecimcirrata; in reality these spec- imens are Edwardsia proper, probably E. andresi, like H. duodecimcirrata mostly provided with 12 tentacles. Halcatnpa ? vegae n. sp. PI. I. Fig. 2. Diagnosis: Apertures of the retractile physa? Scajius with a thin, easily deciduous periderm. Nema- tocysts of the scapus, capitulum and tentacles about 13 x 1,5 [i. Spirocysts of the capitulum and the ten- tacles unto about 11 n long. Tentacles probably 12. Perfect mesenteries 12, imperfect 12. Ivongitudinal pen- nons of the mesenteries very strong, their ramification almost like that of the pennons of H. arctica. Parietal muscles strong, in transverse-sections not elongated, divided into very fine and numerous branches. Imper- fect mesenteries ver>- finely folded, elongated. Occurrence: Beliring Sea 64°52' N. 172°' W. 18 fms (Vega-Exp. N. 1056) i sp. Exterior aspect: The exterior of the very contracted and partly not well jjreservcd animal (PI. i, fig. 2) recalls that of other Halcampa-species. On account of the strong contraction and involution of the physa I have not been able to examine it more closely. The scapus is provided wi
