A() Clytia elongata sjj. n. Cx^5. Hydro can Ins.—Simple stems of variable height. At their origin from the stolon they are annnlated with 9-12 rings, at the distal end there are 3-5 rings, and there is a terminal small spherule which is very variable in size; sometimes it is exceptionally small (0"05 mm. in diameter). Height of stem 1*5—3 mm., diameter 0'092 mm., thickness of perisarc 8'9 /x. Hydrotheca.—Long, cylindrical, sometimes expanding; margin with about twelve sharp Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Natal Museum (Pietermaritzburg, South Africa).
