attaining the length of the 3 succeeding segments combined, rostral projection 



triangular, narrowly blunted at the tip. I 'rosome (including the caudal rami) fully

the length of the last -2 segments combined: dorsal seta issuing about in the middle.

likewise agreeing closely with those in the type species. Last pair of legs only 



differing from those in ('. liinifnln in the distal joint being somewhat less produced.

Remarks. This form has been erroneously referred by I'.oeck to his -vims 



/.'///"/' '. It is in reality a genuine ( '/rtntli'*. and closely allied to the type 



-. Clei les Ininm/ii llradv. from which it is readily distinguished, however, by 



its more slender body and ''specially by the nai'row and produced caudal lami. 



Prof. Brady has de-crihed under the name of ('li-tmli^ longiCdudatct B very ditfer- 



'nt form, which perhaps does not belong to the present genus at all. The form 



"xl'il b\ Th. Scott as Cletodes neglecta is unquestionably identical with lioeck's 



I have found this form in considerable abundance at l-'arsiind, 

 ' Norway, in a depth of about L'I> fathoms, miiddv sand. It also 

 OCCurfl occasionally in the upper part of the Christiania Kjord.
