The external faces of the perradial columns have each a slight con- cavity, not a deep niche, as in Lychnorhiza bartschi. The subgenital ostia are twice as wide as the perradial columns and each is arched over by a flap-like projection. There are also 4 interradial papillse upon the subumbrella, one opposite the opening of each subgenital ostium. The 8 mouth-arms are not quite two-thirds as long as the bell-diamete

FIG. 6.—Lychnorhiza bornensis, from Tawao, Borneo, September 30, 1909. Natural size. The gastro-vascular canals are shown in one-third of the subumbrella. 5 arms are removed, being cut off close to the arm-disk. arm terminates in a single, slender, tapering, thread-like filament about 50 mm. long. There are also a few shorter, more slender, filaments which arise from the sides of the mouth-arms between the mouths. There are no filaments upon the arm-disk. There is a wide zone of circular muscles in the subumbrella, and these are only partially interrupted in the 8 rhopalar radii. The central stomach gives rise to 16 radial-canals, 8 of which extend to the rhopalia and the 8 others end in the ring-canal. On its inner side the ring- canal gives rise to 16X4 radial-vessels, which do not reach the margin of the stomach but anastomose one with another and with the 16 chief radial-.
