This Memoir is a continuation of the work upon the Cubomedusæ which was begun by the late Dr. Franklin Story Conant, and it contains his notes of physiological experiments, as well as new results which have been obtained by Dr. E. W. Berger from the study of material which had been collected by Dr. Conant, who had hoped to make it the object of further study.
In order that this work may be made public as a continuation of Dr. Conant’s researches, his sister, Grace Wilbur Conant, has, with the coöperation of other members of his family, made an adequate and generous provision for its publication.
