In the first group: organ-pipe coral, gorgonian coral arranged into fan shapes, soft sponges from Syria, isis coral from the Molucca Islands, sea-pen coral, wonderful coral of the genus Virgularia from the waters of Norway, various coral of the genus Umbellularia, alcyonarian coral, then a whole series of those madrepores that my mentor Professor Milne-Edwards has so shrewdly classified into divisions and among which I noted the wonderful genus Flabellina as well as the genus Oculina from Reunion Island, plus a "Neptune's chariot" from the Caribbean Sea-every superb variety of coral, and in short,every species of these unusual polyparies thatcongregate to form entire islands that will one day turn into continents.
在腔肠类中,有管状珊瑚,扇形矾花,叙利亚的柔软侮绵,摩鹿加一群一岛的海木贼,磷光珊瑚,挪威海中很好看的逗点珊瑚,各式各样的伞形珊瑚,八枚珊瑚虫,我的老师密尔·一爱一德华很清楚地分为许多种的整组的石蚕:波旁岛的眼形珊瑚,安的列斯一群一岛的“海神之车”,各种各样的美丽珊瑚,以及所有一切稀奇古怪的腔肠类动物;这些动物集合起来,能构成整个的海岛,
