The characters are given on p. 216, TracJiyitfiiia/'' Liriopr^ (fig. iSo), and Canipanella* in our waters, Gcrvoiiia, etc., in Europe. Order VI. Narcomedusae. In addition to the characters on p. 217 may be added that the tentacles arise from ^ the outside, above the rim of the bell.

Order VII. Siphonophora. The Siphonophora are among the most beautiful of pelagic animals, some transparent, some brightly colored. Each (fig. tSi) consists of a colony of indi\iduals springing from a common cccnosarcal tube which is strongly mus- cular and contains a central canal, lined with entoderm, by which the members Fig. iSi.—Diasrrani of Sinhono- colony receive their nourishment. phore (from Lang). .1-//, groups of different inilividuals; ih, cover- At one end the tube is usually closeil by inc scales; C(?, sonoi)horcs;/m', feci-l- n 1. c • • j 1 ,1 ru 4 :'','*:'',, ', . , 1; ,; ^. a lloat ol inyagmated cctoilerm, filled ing polyps; p, icclcrs ((hgcsUve); f^ ' sb, lloat; ,s\g, swimming bell (necio- with air, the piiciiiiialapliorc, which keeps cah'x
