Clava multicornis and Clava squamata are recorded by most investigators of hydroids as two separate species; the distinguishing characters, however, are rather vague, being made out by the closer or opener occurrence of the polyps in the colony or by the colour of the colonies. A copious material from various localities, in fact, presents all transitions possible, and it is virtually impossible to draw any certain limit between the species. A closer inquiry soon makes clear to us that the points of difference must be of biological nature, and the two species, therefore, have to be regarded only as biologically determined "forms" of a single species, which I, accordingly, denominate forma genuina and forma squmata.
