XXXIV) It is noticeable that a mamelon occurs not only on the primary but on all the apophyses in the colony. The idea that it should, as Nutting (1900) believes to be the case with other species, form the point of origin of the gouothecse, is due to inadequate investigation; the gonothecas have their point of attachment by the side of this sarcotheca. Levinsen's description incorrectly gives the impression that he has had grown gonothecae before him at the time; they are, however, only quite young stages, and grown gonangia have thus not been described for this species. Polynemertesia gracilliuia is plainly- a southern visitor to the northern waters, and has strangely enough not yet been recorded in the British waters (fig. XXXV).
