The following account of the Cklarida? of the Hawaiian Echini collected in the spring of 1902 by the United States Fish Commission Steamer " Alba- tross," Commander Chauncey Thomas, U. S. N., commanding, is the first part of the description of a large collection of Sea-urchins intrusted to us for examination by the Hon. George M. Bowers, United States Fish Commis- sioner. A few other Echini collected by the '• xllbatross" in different parts of the Pacific have been incorporated in our Report, and special reference has been made to some Deep Sea Panamic Cidarida3 collected by the "Albatross" in 1891, for the sake of having a connected account of the pedicellarice of the Pacific Cidaridaj. This part of the Report has been pre- pared by Mr. Clark, and he has, as far as practicable, analyzed the statements of Mortensen, Ddderlein, and de Meijere regarding their systematic value. Ml". Agassiz has in his Panamic Deep Sea Echini given his views of the new classification of Echinoids proposed by Mortensen and de Meijere. As regards the position taken by Doderlein regarding Mortensen's system, in his Echini of the " Valdivia," which has recently been published, it is difficult to follow him. His statements are often most guarded ; next they may bo enthusiastic in favor of a classification based upon pedicellaria\ and again are radically opposed to such a course. The numerous illustrations of pedicellarife given by Doderlein are unfortunately somewhat indistinct, and it is often very difficult to distinguish their characteristic features. The succeeding parts of this monograph on the Hawaiian Echini will be published as rapidly as tlie preparation of the plates will allow. In the meantime a preliminary list of the species included in tlie collection will shortly be printed. For the positions indicated in the Stations, see U. S. Hydrograpliic Chart, No. 1368.

Fish CojiMissroN Steamer "Albatross," Commander Chauncey Thomas, U. S. N., Commanding. CIDARIDiE Muller. Pedicellari^ are present in considerable numbers among the secondary and miliary spines of the Cidaridas and show the greatest diversity in their size, form, and relative abundance. We can distinguish in this family three sorts of pedicellaria?, differing from one another in structure, as well as in size, and for convenience these have been designated as " tridentate," "large globiferous," and "small globiferous." The three kinds are not, however, sharply distinct from one another, for intermediate forms are common, often on one and the same individual. Covered with their epidermal tissue the pedicellarioe are difficult to study, but when the organic matter has been cleaned off with caustic potash, or much better with hypochlorite of soda, their calcareous parts show many interesting features. In what follows, reference is made to these calcareous parts only. The tridentate pedicellari;T3 have the valves elongated, and either flat or contracted rather abruptly into a slender blade, Avhich may terminate in a rounded, more or less smooth end, or in a conspicuous hook or " end- tooth." Each valve is practically solid and does not contain any interior cavity, but it is often more or less perforated, near the base and along the sides, with small holes. A tridentate pedicellaria is usually made up of three valves, of equal size, connected with each other at the base by muscles, and freely movable on the end of a stalk of variable length. But similar pedicellarias with only two valves occur regularly in Porocidaris pnrpurata, and rarely in P. variabilis, while in the latter species such pedicellarite with four valves are also occasionally found. When closed, the valves may meet for their entire length (and this is always so in pedicellarias having two or four valves) or, as in many of those witii three valves, these meet only at the tip or for a fraction of their lengtli, and are 2 HAWAIIAN AND OTHER PACIFIC ECHINI. more or less widely separated above tlieir basal union. In size, the valves show a wide ranLj;e, from less than lialt' a millimeter to over halt" a centi- meter lonLr. tlie width beinac from .10 to .70 of the leni>;th. In small examples the stalk, wliicli is a simple, straight rod, is often as long as the valves, but in large ones the valves are much the longer. Tridentate pedicellarite occur mainly around the primary spines, especially on the actinal half of the test, but they may occur abactinally and are sometimes conspicuous on the abactinal system. Tliey may be entirely wanting not merely in individual cases but in wliole groups of species. The large globiferous pedicellaria3 are always three-valved. They take their name from the fact tliat when tlie valves, which are lar) are not peculiar, but have an end-tooth as in Cidaris. The valves are from .19 to .75 mm. in length and their stalks, one or two times as long. They occur everywhere, but are not very common. This hand.some and very interesting species was collected by the '• Alhii tross" during her trip to the Eastern Pacific, in 1904, at the following stations. Station 4642.

Tliiis genus is established for a specimen we take to be Cidari.'^ /emnsjniia Yosliiwara' (PI. ol, figs. J-,v). It can at once be distinguislied from all other Cidaridte by the sliarp, deep sutures separating the plates of the abac- tinal system, and of the interambulacral areas, and the deep median vertical suture of the ambulacral area. Towards the actinal system the sutures tend to imitate, at the angles of both the ambulacral and interambulacral plates, those of some species of Goniocidaris. When seen from above the general aspect of the test resembles somewhat that of the ArbaciadiB, the upper inter- ambulacral plates having no well developed primary tubercles, much as in Coelopleurus, and among the CidaridEe in Diplocidaris and to a lesser degree, in some species of Stereocidaris. The primary tubercles begin onlv at the equatorial zone and extend from there to the actinal system. The primary radioles (Plate 12, fig. Ifi) resemble a combination of those of Dorocidaris and of Porocidaris. Anomocidaris is notable for its conical test and the presence of rudimentary abactiual primary tubercles.

The only specimen of this species collected measures 29 mm. in diameter; the abactinal system is circular, 14 mm. in diameter, the actinal system is pentagonal and 10 nun. across. The genital plates are large, irregularly heptagonal. The anal system is sharply pentagouid, included by the genital plates. The genital pores are large ; the ocular plates are small, elongated triangular, deeply cut into by the ambulacral system ; the ocular pores are prominent; the whole abactinal system is covered with irregularly arranged, distant, small secondaries and interspersed miliaries. A similar granulation extends over the interam- bulacral j^lf^tes above the equatorial belt and surrounds an ill-defined scrobicular area with a rudimentary low, imperforate tubercle. Jkdow the equatorial belt, there are five or six ])rimary tubercles, usually two large ones at the ambitus, gradually diniiuishing in size. Tlie scrobicular areas are well defined, somewhat sunken, edged by a large ring of 1 Amiot. Znul. .lap. ls:iS, \'.il. II, p. .')". POROCIDAKIS COBOSI. 31 secondaries ; these with the scrobicuhir area occupy nearly the Avhole of each interambulacral phxte ; along the median interainbulacral line, some of the larger scrobicular areas below the equatorial belt are flanked by half-circles of secondaries and irregular rows of minute miliaries. On the interambulacral plates below the equatorial belt, the mammary boss is high, the tubercles are small and perforate. On botli sides of the sharply cut median line of suture of the ambulacral plates runs a vertical line of secondaries with an inner row of irregularly placed miliaries. Unfortunately the actinal system is wanting; it is pentagonal and 10 mm. in greatest width. The primary radicles (PI. 12, fig. 10) are slender, gradually tapering, with lines of blunt serrations. The shorter primary radioles are slightly flattened at the extremity and indistinctly fluted. The longest equatorial radiole is 37 mm. in length. Others of the shorter radioles taper rapidly to a point above the equatorial belt. The secondary and miliary spines are slender and pointed ; a few of the secondaries round the scrobicular areas are stouter at the base. The larger interambulacral spines round the scro- bicular areas on the equatorial and actinal side are narrow and flattened, with rounded tips. The ambulacral spines are blunt, somewhat cylindrical or flattened. Only a single kind of pedicellaria is found, as the tridentate and large globiferous are both wanting. The small globiferous ones are very numerous everywhere and very variable in size and form. The valves are elongated and rather slender, and the lip and end-tooth may both be present, or either or both be wanting. In length they range from .28 to .91 mm., while the opening varies in size from .15 to .32 of the length. The stalk is shorter than the valves, or as long, or even twice as long. Station 3709.

The tridentate pedicellaria^ have the valves very broad, thick, and flat. They vary enormously in size, ranging from .50 to 5.5 mm. in length ; the small ones liave the stalk about equal to the valves, but in the large ones it is much less. The small ones are abundant everywhere; the larger ones are on the interambulacra, while the largest are mainly above the ambitus and often near the abactinal system. The largest are 20 to 30 in number, more or less, though they may be much fewer ; their valves are always tapering and more or less distinctly pointed. Porocidaris variabilis A. Ag. and Clark. Plates 8, lG-22, and 23, figs. l-J,. An excellent series of specimens of this species was collected by the "Albatross" from thirteen localities, in 202 to 34G fathoms, varying in size from 77 mm. in diameter to 22 nnn. (Pis. 16-22; 23, figs. l-!i). In the smaller specimens the primary radioles are much longer in proportion to the diameter than in larger specimens. In the small specimen (Plate 22) of 22 mm. there are several of the primary radioles more tlian 76 nmi. in length. In a specimen 35 mm. in diameter, the longest radioles are 122 mm. long (Pis. 20, 21). In a specimen -40 mm. in diameter (PI. 23, figs. 1-Jf) the longest radioles are only 71 mm. long. In the largest specimen examined (Pis. 10, 17) the longest radioles have a length of only 71 mm. The general appearance of the large primary radioles varies greatly (PI. 8, figs. 12- iO) ; in the smaller specimens the majority are pointed, the shaft is very delicately striated with minute serrations. The shaft is a porcelain white, but towards the extremity it becomes yellowish- brown, slightly fluted. The base of the spine above the milled ring is a delicate salmon color. In older specimens there are but few white primary radioles. The shaft of the radioles is of a light-brown color with only a small part white ; the base of the spine is of a darker color. The shaft of the radioles is also more deeply fluted, the serrations larger and more blunt than in smaller specimens. The fluting becomes very marked and quite deep towards the tip of the radioles, and many of the shorter and stouter primary radioles spread somewhat at the tip (Pis. 16, 17; 23, figs. 1-Jf). The actinal primary radioles (PI. 8, figs. 10 and 20) are short, sligliLly curved, deeply fluted, with large blunt serrations; the smaller radioles are flattened; the lower part of the shaft of the larger radioles is porcelain POROCIDAKIS VAEIABILIS. 33 white, in marked contrast to the dark-brown color of the base of the radiole above the milled ring and with the brown of the heavilv fluted tip of the radiole. The large radicles are frequenth" infesled with numerous specimens of a small species of Scalpellum (Pis. 16-21). The secondary spines (Pi. 8, figs. 31-J4) are slender, pointed, flattened or rounded or slightly dished, and finely fluted. Seen from above (Pis. 17, 21) the test is a dark violet or chocolate- brown ; the abactinal system is the darkest and towards the equatorial region of the test the color of the ambulacral and interambulacral spines becomes somewhat lighter, of a greenish tinge at the tip. From these stand out prominently the yellowish or brownish or whitish primary .spines. The specimens figured on PI. 23, figs. 7-.; and on PI. 22 are of a much lighter color. In the specimen of PI. 22 the ambulacral and interambulacral spines are of a light yellowish-brown color, and those of the specimen fig- ured on PI. 23, figs. 1-4 are of a still lighter color. On the whole, judging from the specimens at our disposal, the color increases in depth with size. In a specimen 72 mm. in diameter (Pis. 18, 19) and 50 mm. in lieight, there are eight and nine interambulacral plates. The primary tubercles are perforate, but irregularly crenulated (PI. 10). The scrobicular area is sur- rounded with .secondaries only slightly larger than those of the median interambulacral space and filling the angles of the interambulacral plates next to the poriferous zone (PI. 19, fig. 2). The .scrobicular areas below the equatorial zone are slightly confluent. The median ambulacral zone is slightly broader than the poriferous zone. It is undulating, separated from the poriferous zone by an outer vertical row of secondaries, the median belt carrj-ing miliaries forming irregular vertical rows. The inner row of pores is somewhat larger than the outer row (PI. 19, fig. 1). The abactinal system (PI. 18, fig. ,.') is circular, 31 mm. in diameter. The madreporic genital is far larger than the others ; they all are irregularly heptagonal ; the ocular plates are smail, heart-shaped, and are all excluded from the anal system. The anal system is sharply pentagonal, with a large outer row of anal plates; there is a second row of smaller plates adjoining the irregularly arranged minute plates which surround the anal opening. The miliaries on the genital plates are limited in their distribution ; they are small, comparativeh' few in number, and irregularly arranged round the genital pores. On the oculars they occur on the median belt of the plate, y The larger anal plates carry from one to three secondaries, with a few 34 HAWAIIAN AND OTHEE PACIFIC ECHINI. miliaries on the plates forming the angles of the pentagonal anal system. Tlie proximal part of the madreporic genital is riddled with pores. The genital openings arc large (a female PI. 18, fig. /) and placed near the distal edge of tlie genital plates. The actinal s\-stem (PI. IS, fig. ;?) is pen- tagonal, 2-") mm. in diameter, with eight rows of ambulacral plates, and not more than four or five small interambulacral plates. The latter are bare or carry one indistinct miliary. The ambulacral plates carry minute secon- daries on the actinal edge of the plates. In a specimen 36 mm. in diameter (PI. 23, figs, l-j^) and 20 mm. in height, there are six and seven interambulacral plates. The abactinal system is circular, IG nun. in diauieter (PI. 23, fig. l); it differs only in si/e from the structure of the abactinal system of the larger specimen described (PL 18, fig. y), and being that of a male it has suiall genital openings. A comparison of the interambulacral plates of the s[)eciuiens figured on Plate 18 with those of PI. 23, figs J, ,^, shows that the ecjuatorial increase of the test takes place more rapidly than the increase in width of the median interambulacral zone covered by secondaries and miliaries. In the smaller specimen there is only one circle of secondaries round the scrobicular area, with a few irregularly arranged large miliaries filling the angles of the interand)ulacral plates along the median line. The actinal system is pentagonal (PI. 23, fig. 2) 1-1 mm. in , IG. 36 HAWAIIAN AND OTHER PACIFIC ECHINI. Station 4083. Off Puniawa Point, Maui. 238-253 fathoms. Gy. s. Station 4085.

The discovery of a cidaroid in deep water off Kamchatka very similar to Porocidaris Milkri A. Ag. calls attention with new emphasis to tlie pecu- liarities of that form, and makes it seem desirable to establish a genus for the reception of the two species, in order to make more clear the features in which they differ from Porocidaris. The extraordinary size of the abac- tinal system, which is from .GO to .70 of the horizontal diameter of the test; the small number of ambidacral plates, which are usually fewer than 30 and oidy in the largest specimens exceed that number; the fact that the poriferous zones are scarcely sunken at all ; the very slender but rougli primary radioles ; the nearly cylindrical or even club-shaped secondaries and miliaries; and the absence of any sort of tridentate pedicellarias, com- bine to make the line between these species and the other Cidarida3 remarkably distinct. They are small and rather delicate echinoids, appar- ently confined to very deep water. APOEOCIDARIS MILLEEI. 37 Aporocidaris Milleri A. Ag. and Clark. Porocidaris Milleri A. Ag. 1S9S. Bull. M. C. Z., XXXII, 5, p. 74. PI. IV. Plate 9. Neither tridentate nor large globiferous pedicellarife occur in this species, but small globiferous ones of very diverse sizes are abundant all over the test. They have the valves short and wide though the proportions vary, from those having the width .38 of the length to those in which it is .75. The opening is very irregular, either with or without a lip, and there may or may not be an end-tooth. The valves range in length from .32 to .87 mm. and the stalks are one or two times as lonff. The great variability of the primary radioles referred to in the previously published description is remarkably illustrated by two specimens, each 10 mm. in diameter, one from St. 3309, off Cocos Id., the other from St. 4717. In the former, all the radioles are very slender and almost perfectly smooth, while in the latter many are much stouter and are provided with longi- tudinal series of stout, hooked prickles, as long as one-half the diameter of the spine. This species was collected by the " Albatro.ss," during her trip to the Eastern Pacific, in 1904, at the following stations. Station 4647. 4°33' S.-87'42.5' W. Bott. temp. 35.5^ 2005 fathoms.

Of this species two specimens were collected at Station 3783. It is closely allied to P. 3IiUcri. It is more flattened (PI. 23, figs. 7, .S) than that species, but like it in that the miliaries and secondaries are distant and the smaller spines are of uniform size, and very slender and elongate. In a specimen of 20 mm. diameter there are five and five interambulacral plates; the longest radicles (PI. 10, fig. Li) are 35 mm. and are compara- tively stouter than in P. llilkri. They are of a whitish tint, and are covered with sharp, prominent serrations. The actinal primary radioles (PI. 10. fig. 7-7) ai-e curved, flattened, with longer teeth on the edges. The color of the secondary spines and papilli\5 is light yellowish-brown. 38 HAWAIIAN AND OTHER PACIFIC ECHINI. In a specimen measuring 15 mm. in diameter and 9 mm. in lieiglit there are four and five interambulacral plates. The abactinal system measures 9 mm. across, the actinal system 8 mm. Tlie median ambulacral zone con- sists of two vertical rows of secondary tubercles about equal in size to those surrounding the scrobicular area. In the younger specimens of Milleri anOi fragilis the genital pores are frequently not developed (PI. 23, fig. j), and the actinal interambulacral plates are limited to a very small area between the ambulacral plates (PI. 23, fig. G). Neither tridentate nor large globiferous pedicellarias are to be found. The small globiferous ones occur everywhere, but are not specially abundant. They are very variable, but the valves are somewhat more slender than in Milkri ; the lip is generally present, but the end-tooth is usually wanting. The valves range in length from .40 to 1.00 nun., and the stalk is about equal to them, or may be as much as twice as long. Station No. 3783. Off Kamchatka; S. E. Cape, Copper Id. 1567 fathoms. Gy. V. s. gn. m. AcANxnociDARis Mort. It is not surprising that Mortensen^ should have established this genus without any further examination than the superficial one he was able to make of the specimens in the British Museum and in the Jardin des Plantes and of the pedicellaria? he figured of Cidaris curraiisjnji/'s Bell." For this cidarid is indeed a most striking Echinoid and is remarkable for its huge curved primary spines resembling those of Coelopleurus, tliough they are not smooth, and end in a shallow grooved socket and not in a point as in that genus. The base of the primary spines above the milled ring is smootli, witli fine striation, and indistinct, undulating ribs or ridges extend to the base of the shoe, which is sharply fluted or longitudinally ribbed. The primaries are curved near the extremity and are also often flattened there. The shaft of the spine is not more than one third the leng^th of the shoe. The longest radioles are on the abactinal intenimbu- lacral plates (Pis. 37, 38). The radioles of the actinal part of the test (Pis. 12^ figs. 18,19; 37; 39, fig. i) are much flattened, slightly dished, and have the shaft tipped with a conspicuou.s, short, curved shoe or cap, as in Stephanocidaris. The larger primary spines are somewhat triangular in section, the curved abactinal side of the radiole being wider than the side ' Ingolf Exped. J2chinoitle;i I, p. 21. 2 Trans. Zool. Soc.

They are irregularly triangular, smooth, and pointed (Pis. 38 ; 39 ; 40 ; 41, fig. '2; 42, fig. 5). The abactinal system is pentagonal. The actinal system is smaller than the abactinal.

In a specimen 50 mm. in diameter and 40 nun. in height, the longest abactinal spines measiu-e three times the diameter of the test, the smooth part of the shaft being nearly one quarter the length of the radiole seen from above, and the spines taper very gradually towards the extremity (PI. 38). The extent of the curvature is well shown on two of the longest spines of Pis. 37 and 38, and in PI. 12, fig. 4. The secondary spines (PL 12, figs. 11-14) ''ii'e slender, elongated, flattened, and striated ; they hardly extend beyond the milled ring of the radioles. The miliary spines (PI. 12, fig. 17) resemble the secondaries in every point except in .size, though they appear on the whole as more pointed. The pentagonal abactinal system measures 25 nun. in greatest diameter (PI. 39, fig. 5), while the actinal system does not measure more than IS nun. (PI. 39, fig. 1). There are seven and eight primary tubercles in each vertical interambulacral row; these tubercles are perforate and crenulate. The scrobicular circle is sur- rounded by a single row of large secondaries. The small secondaries and miliaries in two or three irregular rows cover the sides of the interambu- lacral plates, forming a broad, median belt along the suture of the inter- ambulacral plates (PI. 40, figs. /, .'). The scrobicular areas of the small interambulacral plates, near the actinal system, unite on the horizontal line of suture (PI. 39, fig. 1). The poriferous zone of the ambulacral area is slightly undulating. The area itself is divided into three belts of equal width ; the two poriferous zones and the median ambulacral belt which is defined by a vertical line of small secondaries flanking the poriferous zones (Ph 40, fig. 1), with a line of minute miliaries on the median angle of each ambulacral plate. The larger ambulacral tubercles carry comparatively long, slender, sharp-pointed spines. The miliary spines are slender and minute. The outer line of pores is com- posed of larger pores than the iuner line; the pores are slightly confluent. The genital plates are irregularly hexagonal with rounded angles, the 40 HAWAIIAN AND OTHEE PACIFIC ECHINI. distal sides being the smallest (PI. 39, fig. 2). The genital pores are near the distal edge ; the specimen figured in PI. 39, fig. 2, is probably a male. The genital plates are covered with well-separated secondary tubercles, all more or less comma-shaped, especially in the area adjoining the anal system. The madreporic genital is riddled with pores, and is covered with small globular tubercles closely packed together (PL 39, fig. ?). The ocular plates are heart-shaped, irregularly triangular, with rounded sides, and with the exception of the right anterior one, come in contact with a large inter- genital anal plate. The anal system is pointedly pentagonal, with an outer ring of large, irregularly shaped" plates, an inner ring of irregularly shaped smaller plates, and the smallest plates immediately round the anal opening. The plates of the anal system carry a few tubercles similar to those of the genital and ocular plates. The ambulacral plates of the actinal system are very narrow ; they are edged with three small miliaries on each side of the central line of pores. To the thirteen ambulacral plates in each vertical row only six interambu- lacral plates correspond. In a smaller specimen measuring 24 mm. in diameter the ratio of the diameter of the test to the length of the longest primary spine is somewhat less than in the larger specimen. In this specimen the longest primary spines are 65 mm. only, and the basal part of the radiole is fully one third the lengtli of the whole spine. Although the test is proportionately much flatter, only 12 mm. in height, there are already five and six interambulacral plates. With diminishing size the flattening of the test also rapidly increases. In a specimen 18 mm. in diameter, the height is 8 mm. (PI. 42, figs, l-.'f), the longest primary spine is 48 mm., and there are five and six primary tubercles. In a specimen 9 mm. in diameter, the height is 4 mm., the longest spine is 14 mm. (PI. 42, figs. 7-10), and there are four and five primary tubercles. In tlie smallest specimen examined, with three and four primary tubercles, the diameter was 5 mm., and the height 2.25 mm. The longest spines measure 12 and 14 mm. ; the basal part of the spine being nearly one-half tlie length of the radiole. In small specimens the abactinal system is smaller than the actinal. In the specimen figured in PI. 42, figs. 1, 2, the abactinal system measures C.5 mm. and the actinal 7 mm. across. In the specimen PI. 42, figs. 7, S, the abactinal system measures 3.5 mm., and the actinal 4 mm. In the smallest specimen, 5 mm. in diameter, the abactinal and actinal system each measure 3 mm. ACANTHOCIDARIS H4STIGERA. 41 When dried the secondary and miliary spines are of a nniforni brown, chocolate color. The primary spines are of a lighter color with a pinkish tinge, the basal part of the spine yellowish, or sometimes porcelain white in smaller specimens. Although the tridentate and small globiferous pedicellariiB are present always, the large globiferous may be wholly wanting in large specimens. The large globiferous pedicellaria) (PI. 11, fig. l) are not essentially diflTerent from the small ones, but often have the lip incomplete and the end-tooth is wanting. There are numerous calcareous ridges and elevations on the inner face of the valve, which measures about .80 mm. in length. The stalk (PI. 12, fig. l) is about as long- and has a well-developed limb. These pedicellaria3 are infrequent and apparently most connuon in young specimens. The tridentate pedicellaria^ (PI. 11, figs. 4, 5) have long stout valves, with longitudinal ridges on the inner face. The valves are as much as 1.55 mm. in length and the stalk is about the same. They occur mainly on the actinal surface. The small globiferous pedicellaria^ (PI. 11, figs. 2,3) have straight sides and a well-developed end-tooth, which is less conspicuous in large valves. They range in size from .20 mm. upwards, in length of valve, with stalks 1-3 times as long, and intergrade with the large globiferous ones, so that it is hard to draw any line between the two. They are abundant everywhere. Although similar in its general appearance to Bell's species {Cidurls cur- vcdispiius) from Mauritius, hastigera differs so strikingly in color, as well as in the form of the basal half of the primaries, that the two cannot be identical.
