Abstract
IN the very interesting review of the “Ergebnisse den Hamburger Magalhaensischen Sammelreise, 1892–3,” in NATURE of November 19 (p. 82), the reviewer refers to “an interesting fresh discovery … of numerous brood pouches (ectodermic invaginations of the body wall) in Condylactis georgiana,” an Antarctic actinian. I have not a copy of the report to hand, but, if I remember correctly, Carlgren here gives no figures of these “brood chambers,” but describes them as of similar character to those he figured in a preliminary note on the occurrence of breeding chambers in actinians published in 1893, of specimens taken by the Vega expedition in Arctic seas.
