AB - 22 DR. T. 8S. COBBOLD ON C@NURUS. Several specimens of this small species of Serpula are in the collection of the Museum, the slender tubes creeping on frag- ments of old oyster-shells. The operculum is the only part of the animal preserved, as the specimens were transmitted in a dry state. Like that of the other known species of true Serpula, it is finely crenated on the margin. The crene are twenty in number, but the grooves externally are confined to the surface of the disk itself, and are not extended to the pedicel or stalk. The tube is slender, nearly round, with only a slight keel running longitu- dinally along its dorsal surface. It is white, the mouth is nearly circular, and the-shell itself is strongly marked along its whole length with transverse flexuous strize which encircle it. - The specimens in the collection are grouped together on the old oyster-shell, and mixed up with numerous specimens of z00- phytes, Aleyonia &c. Most of them are more or less incrusted with these substances. Length of the tube about 16 lines; cir- cumference about 1 line. Hab. New Zealand, (Brit. Mus.) EXPLANATION OF PLATH II. 1. Cymospira tricornis, operculum.
