Excerpt from Quarterly Journal of Microscopical Science, Vol. 21
At a meeting of the Scientific Society of Christiania on the 15th March, 1867, D.C. Danielssen gave a preliminary account of two new forms of Polyzoa found by him in Nordland and Finmark, and referred to a new genus Kinetoskias.
Of these a fuller account has since been published by Koren and Danielssen, accompanied with figures; and one of the two forms in question was enumerated by Sars, in a catalogue of deep-sea species, under the name of Bugula Smittii.
In May, 1867, Professor Smitt, apparently not aware that a new generic name had been already applied to it by Danielssen, described apparently one of the two forms noticed by that observer under the name of Bugula umbella. Smitt's specimens were procured from Wijde Bay, Spitzbergen.
On the 30th January, 1873, on the "Challenger" Expedition, a specimen of large size, of a form very closely allied to if not identical with one of those described by Koren and Danielssen, was described and figured by Sir C. W. Thomson, under the name of Naresia cyathus. This specimen was procured in the North Atlantic in lat. 36° 23' N., long. 11° 18' W., from a depth of 1525 fathoms. A second specimen of the same form, but of smaller size, was procured on the 2nd March, 1876, in lat. 36° 44' S., and long. 46° 16' W., from a depth of 2650 fathoms.
