Text Appearing After Image:
Fig. 160.—Eutima mira, after Brooks, in Mem. Boston Soc. Nat. Hist., 1886. Small figures are of natural size and illustrate attitudes of the medusa. The stomach, gonads, and tentacles, opaque blue-white in color. Many specimens displaygreen entodermal pigment in the stomach and in the basal bulbs of the 4 long tentacles. The medusa is common at the Tortugas, Florida; Charleston, South Carolina; andBeaufort, North Carolina. It is an occasional visitant to Newport, Rhode Island, and toWoods Hole, Massachusetts, late in summer, being abundant in some years and rare inothers. I am in accord with Hargitt in believing that E. mira is identical with E. limpida. The development of Eutima mira has been studied by Brooks, 1884 and 1886, whoreared the hydroid from the egg. The gastrula is formed by delamination of the entodermfrom the inner ends of the ectoderm cells. This takes place most rapidly at the narrow end 298 MEDUSA OF THE WORLD. of the pear-shaped planula. This narrow end afterwards
