It is branched at varying angles, an<l are very frequent. The zooirls have been ]ilaced at various intervals and .sometimes very closely. There is nearly always a zooid at the points of bi- furcations of the stolon. The largest interval between two zooids in the material is 7 mm. The colour of the specimens in alcohol is pure white. The species is very brittle and the material is consequently very <lamage<l. Nearly all the zooitis have been broken off just at their and only a few of them are ))reser\ed. This is highly.

The largest of the preserved zooids has its tentacles partially retracted and is shown in fig. 13 a. It issues obliquely from a small .stolon which ])artly has been free (.Sj) and partly (s^) creeps upon a little .stone. The measures about 4 mm in height bv about mm in diameter. The other zooid examined is much smaller and entirely retracted (fig. 14 a, fc). By the maximal re- traction both the anthocodial part of the zooid body and the tentacles are entirely inverted as it appears from the longitudinal se
