Abstract
I FOUND many colonies of Phoronis hippocrepia on limestone boulders uncovered at low water of the biggest spring tides in July and August 1939. This was on the collecting ground known in our laboratory as Black Rocks, at the eastern end of the Menai Straits. Most of the individuals had embryos attached to the lophophore.
