Obs. I do not know where to place this singular worm. My spe- 

 cimen was sent to the British Museum. 



Desc. Body an inch long, cylindrical, tapered at the posterior end, of a 

 dirty light brown colour, annulose, rough with numerous papillae and hairy. 

 No head nor eyes. Tentacula projected from the anterior extremity, com- 

 pletely retractile, of two kinds ; for two of them are filiform, equal, yellowish 

 and fleshy ; and eight of them — placed above and within the first — are seta- 

 ceous, bristle-like, and of a bright grass-green colour. There are likewise 

 about the anterior end numerous long bristles in indistinct fascicles, which, 

 when magnified, appear distinctly jointed similar to a Conferva. Along 

 each side a row of about sixty feet, one pair to each ring. The feet are pa- 

 pillary, each bearing about four unequal bristles, not retractile ; those of the 

 two or three anterior pairs are longer than the others. Anus terminal, 

 simple. The animal can inject a green-coloured hquid into a central vessel 

 of the fleshy tentacula. 



One specimen found amongst the entangled roots of Laminar'ia digitata.
