Biology.—Found at low water among stones, algal clumps, hold- fasts of Laminaria, on pilings among hydroids, bryozoans, ascidians. The}^ form tough tubes. Dredged down to 15 fathoms, on gravelly bottoms, with shells, among algae, bryozoan nodules, tunicates (as sandy Amaroecium). They were present in the oceanographic foul- ing studies in the New England region. Stem forms in the process of forming sexual stolons are found at any time of year but are.
