twenty divergent, broad, lamellar, rectangular feet, as long as the thorax, and so densely placed that their margins come in contact with one another.

Habitat.—Tropical Atlantic, Station 347, depth 2250 fathoms; also fossil in Barbados.
Subgenus 2. Anthocyrtonium, Haeckel.
Definition.—Feet of the peristome-corona parallel, vertical; their basal and apical distances equal.
7. Anthocyrtium campanula, n. sp. (Pl. 62, fig. 17).
Shell smooth, with deep collar stricture. Length of the two joints = 1 : 3, breadth = 1 : 3. Cephalis spherical, with a conical horn of the same length. Thorax campanulate, thin-walled, with delicate network of regular, hexagonal pores and thin bars. Mouth little constricted, with twenty to twenty-four parallel, vertical, lanceolate feet, about as long as the cephalis.

Thorax campanulate, thorny, thin-walled, with delicate network of irregular, polygonal pores. Mouth little constricted, with twelve (or more) small, parallel, vertical, triangular feet, shorter than the cephalis.
