Text Appearing Before Image:
d corners, extend from near thecircular vessel to inner apex of subumbrella; in old individuals they nearly meet along theinterradii. Peduncle thick and conical above, slender and prismatic below, usually a littlelonger than diameter of bell. Mouth quadrate, with a tongue-like, gelatinous process withingastric portion that may sometimes be protruded beyond the mouth. The body of the medusa is so very hyaline that it is difficult to discover its presence in thewater. The lips are often of a delicate emerald-green and their nematocyst-cells are tingedwith a delicate purple. Plate 53. Fig. 1. Geryonia proboscidalis, young, immature medusa.

Text Appearing After Image:
TRACHYMEDUS.E—LIRIOPE. 423 This medusa is common at the Tortugas Islands, Florida, and in the Bahamas. It ismost abundant, however, in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina; a few battered specimenshave been found at Newport, Rhode Island, late in the summer. Brooks, 1886, gives an excellent figure of the mature medusa and a detailed account of itsdevelopment from the egg. The development is direct. A delamination gastrula is formed
