The stem, which is mono- siphonic, is divided up into irregular internodia, and has two single longitudinal rows of hydrothecse and two rows of alternating branches; there are three hydrothecae between two successive branches on same side of the stem, the lowest in the branch corner. The branches have two rows of very closely packed hydrothecae, the hydrothecse in the single longitudinal rows have their oral parts alternately turned to either side, making a distinct approach to quadriserial arrangement, and the branches thus be- come almost quadrilateral in section. The hydrothecse are small, entirely embedded, without any free distal part of the adcauline wall; the opening margin forms an adcauline sinus, in which the large opercular plate is attached. The hydrotheca opening is comparatively very 200 m. _ . — boom. tooom. 2 000 m Fig. LXIV. The occurrence of Abietinaria ftj/iisca in the Northern Atlantic. (In British waters the data are somewhat vague, but note a rather common occurrence). The gonothecae are set on the upper side of the branches. They are pear-shaped, with short stalks.
