Ventralfladen. Zooiderne ere 0,402*" lange. 0.1 78"" brede
og omgivne af spindelformige Kalkspikler. som ere 0,440""
lange. 0,018"" brede, bleg-rosenrode og ordnede
pyramiclo-formigt i ell Spids.
Af de uudviklede OeUerækker er’der 17 til liver Side,
hvori der er 3 Celler, 2—3 Rækker med 2 Celler i hver,
og saa kommer 3-4 enkeltstaaenilc Celler.
Ventralfladen har et lidt hvælvet. 1"" bredt, nøgent
Belte, til hvis Sider sees de for omtalte Zooider, Fig. 2.
Polyperne ere eyliudriske. deres Krop er omtrent
2"" lang, næsten vandklar og uden Spikier. Tentaklerne
ere 2—3 Gauge saa lange som Kroppen og have paa lieres
aborale Flade, ligefra Grunden til Spidsen, ell Række
valseforiuige Spikier, (lel- ere 0,268"" lange, 0,027"" brede;
kun paa en Tentakel vare Spiklerne svagt rosenrode, ellers
vare de ufarvede.
Sarcosoniaet er især paa Rachis temmelig tyndt, og dets
ydre Bindevæv er opfyldt ilels med rode, dels med ufarvede
Spikier irf samme Fonn og Stilrrelse som de, der ere
omtalte ved Cellerne. I (let nøgne Belte paa Ventralfladen

Bindevæv fuldtpakket af trekantede, farveløse Spikier.’ der

namely, from the dorsal to tile ventral surface. Tile series
are placed, alternating and opposite to each other (tigs. 3, 4).
At the foot of the rachis; the cellular series are situated,
up to I -5— apart from each other, whilst, the superior
cellular series lie almost upon each other. All the cells
are observed, principally, from the dorsal side.
The inner wall of the cells is concreted with the
rachis. The cells are from 2 4""" long, and very broad,
almost bulging, superiorly; at which point, the wide aperture,
which is oblong laterally, has 2—0 lanceolate teeth with
a very broad base (fig. 3). and these are situated upon
the outer free margin. The wall of the cell is filled up
with rod-like, triangular spicules, lying close upon each
other, and these are. partly, clear as water, and, partly,
faint rosy-red in colour. These spicules measure from
0.44,", 0.625— long, and from 0.027 0.045»" broad ffig.
51; occasionally, between these long spicules, a few small
ones are observed, and these measure 0.179— long, and
0.010"" broad (tig. (i).
The dorsal surface, and the lateral surfaces are.
closely beset with zooids, without these having any
considerable regularity (figs. 3, 4), luit they are situated
closest, along the mesial line of the dorsal surface (fig. 3).
On the extreme sides, they become arranged in more
transversal, somewhat irregular series (fig. 4). which appear
to proceed, from the dorsal to the ventral surface. The
zooids are 0.402— long, and 0.178"" broad; and they
are surrounded by fusiform calcareous spicules, which
are 0.446"" long, aml 0.1118»" broad; and have a pale
rosy-red colour, and are arranged in a pyramidal point.
Of the undeveloped cellular series; 17 are found on
each side, in which there are 3 cells, also 2 -3 series
with 2 cells in each, and then, there are 3—4 isolated cells.
The ventral surface has a somewhat arched, bare
stripe. 1— broad, at each of whose sides, the zooids
(fig. 2) previously spoken of. are observed
The polyps are cylindrical; their body is about
2"» long, almost clear as water and devoid of spicules.
The tentacles are 2 ■ 3 times as long as the body. and.
upon their aboral surface, they have, extending right from
the base to the point, a series of roller-shaped spicules
which are 0.268"" long, and 0.027"’" hroail; only upon one
tentacle, were the spicules it faint rosy-red colour, otherwise,
they were colourless.
The sarcosoma is rather thin, especially, upon the
rachis, and its exterior connective-tissue is filled up with,
partly, red and partly, with colourless spicules, of same
form and size as those spoken of as pertaining to the
cells. In the bare stripe on the ventral surface, the
spicules are placed longitudinally and singly (fig. 7). In the
stem, the sarcosoma is thicker, and in this situation, it’s
exterior connective-tissue is entirely filled with triangular,
colourless spicules, which are constricted at the middle,
and measure 0.231— long, and 0.018"" broad.
The axis is round, and truncated above. It terminates
below, fine as a hair, in a hook.
