Extract

During a short visit to Plymouth, in 1928, Dr. M. W. de Laubenfels made a collection of sponges which, with the exception of six, he identified and deposited in the Biological Laboratory at Plymouth. Before leaving England he left these six with me, with the request that they should be identified. This I have now done, and the results have proved extremely interesting, adding six species, Halichondria bowerbanki, Mycale similaris, Iophon hyndmani, Endectyon delaubenfelsi, Hymedesmia stephensi, and Pachaxinella subdola, to the recorded faunal list for Plymouth, of which three are new species.
