Abstract
As some interest seems to be excited as to the nature of the animal that forms the long calcareous axis that has been received from Barraud's Inlet, I forward you a copy of a short notice I read on the subject before the California Academy of Sciences, July 17, 1871. I also enclose a piece of the stem with some of the soft parts still adhering to it, as it is possible its examination by competent observers will determine if I correctly referred it to the sponges.
