'' Polypidom small, very irregularly branched, somewhat as in E. rameum, but not so thickly; branches strongly ringed, sometimes throughout their length, always near their origin; polyi^e-s small with long tentacles and broad bhmt proboscis. It differs from E. rameum in the moi'c numerous rings on the branches, and from E. raraosum in the mode of ; (Stimpson). Eudrndrium dispav Agassiz. Trophosome. Colony large, 10 cm., main stem slightly fascicled; branches and pedicels extensively annulated and the main stem wrinkled or annulated to some extent; branching irregular. Gonosome. Gonophores at the base of the hydranth or scattered down the strongly annulated pedicel; hydranth, although sometimes smaller, is often of normal size. Colour. Stem greenish; hydranths rose-coloured; male gonophores orange; female gonophores 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 Biological Board of Canada; Canada.
