"December 23, 1956."

"Forty-seven species of annelids in 26 families and 42 genera were collected ... in January and February, 1954 ... Most of the species are intertidal or shallow-water forms ... collected from flats at low tide or on the outer reefs, either dug up from muddy sand with a shovel, or found under rocks or on old shells associated with ascidians, sea-urchin tests, aggregated clumps of sponges, and algae ... Drifting logs, bridges, pier pilings, bottoms of boats, and large sponges, the latter mainly in Bimini, provided ... a great number of specimens ... Two samples were taken from plankton in the Florida Current ... One belongs to the interstitial sand fauna."
