Two new species, Anonyx dalli and A. shoemakeri, closely allied to Anonyx validus Gurjanova are described. This group of three species is unique within the genus Anonyx in having short, broad, and poorly armed second uropods and an angular lower posterior margin on the side plate of peraeopod 4. These species are medium sized and confined to the North Pacific Ocean.

The Aleyonarians collected by Mr W. S. Bruce on the Scotia voyage represent nine species—six of which are new, namely:—Primnoisis ramosa, n. sp.Thonarella brucci, n. sp.Amphilaphis regularis, Wright and Studer.Primnoella scotiæ, n. sp.Primnoella magellanica, Studer.Paramuricea robusta, n. sp.Gorgonia wrighti, n. sp.Gorgonia studeri, n. sp.Umbellula durissima, Kölliker.Apart from the six new species, the collection is of interest in extending our knowledge of the geographical distribution of previously recorded forms. Thus Amphilaphis regularis, Wright and Studer, previously collected off Inaccessible Island, Tristan da Cunha, and off Nightingale Island, was got in abundance off St Helena; Primnoella magellanica, Studer, previously collected off Monte Video and in the Magellan Straits, was obtained at Burdwood Bank 54° 25′ S., 57° 32′ W.; while Umbellula durissima, Wright and Studer, previously obtained by the Challenger from the North Pacific Ocean, south of Yeddo, was found by the Scotia at 48° 06′ S., 10° 5′ W.

The genus Histodermella grows to four species with the addition of H. kagigunensis sp. nov. from the North Pacific. The new species is described and compared with all congeners. Histodermella kagigunensis shows affinities to H. ingolfi Lundbeck 1910 as it has the same spicule types but differs clearly in size, habitus and the dimensions of two occurring spicule types. The discovery of H. kagigunensis represents the first record of the genus Histodermella in the North Pacific Ocean.
