NO. 1 HARTMAN : POLYCHAETOUS ANNELIDS 135 



resentatives of the superfamily Eunicea, i.e., in the Eunici'dae and 

 Onuphidae, it is the left, not the right, plate which is so. If Aotearia 

 sulcaticeps could be included in Lumbrineris, it would fall in that group 

 in which simple hooks are already present in anterior segments and in 

 which acicula are black. 



Four other parasitic or aberrant genera have been described in the 

 Lumbrineridae. These are: 



1. Haematocleptes Wiren (1886, p. 1 ) for H. terebellidis, taken from 

 the digestive tract of Terebellides stroe?ni Sars. 



2. Labrorostratus St. Joseph (1888, p. 218) for L. parasiticus, from 

 the body of syllids. 



3. Oligognathus Spengel (1882, p. 15) for O. bonelliae, from the body 

 cavity of Bonellia. (This may go to the Arabellidae, below.) 



4. Ophiuricola Ludwig (1905, p. 397) for O. cynips, from a deep sea 

 ophiuran, from west of Callao, Peru, in 2,845 fms. 



Three other genera that have been attributed to the Lumbrineridae 

 are either doubtful or to be referred to other genera. 



1. Laranda Kinberg was proposed for 2 species, L. sulcata Kinberg 

 (1865, p. 574) from Guayaquil, Ecuador, and L. gracilis Kinberg 

 (1865, p. 574) from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Through the kindness 

 of Professor Sixten Bock, I have been able to examine the type ma- 

 terials at the Swedish State Museum; I found no collections of L. 

 gracilis and only a fragment of L. sulcata, which had been dried and 

 from which the proboscidial armature is missing. The genus Laranda, 

 therefore, is best dropped from the list. Other species subsequently 

 assigned to Laranda include L. annulata Ehlers (1912, p. 99) from 

 the east coast of Africa, which may well go to Drilonereis Claparede, 

 and L. robusta Moore (1903, p. 454) from Suruga Bay, Japan, 

 which is also a Drilonereis (Hartman, 1942, p. 125). 



2. Larymna Kinberg (1865, p. 572) from Mossambique is a Lysareti- 

 dae (p. 183), as I was able to confirm by examination of the type 

 materials at the Swedish State Museum. This is discussed in an- 

 other report on some Swedish types (in manuscript). 



3. Pterothrix Chamberlin (1919, p. 325) was proposed for Notocirrus 

 scoticus Mcintosh, but is believed to be based partly on a Drilonereis 

 sp. and partly on an Arabella sp. (see Fauvel, 1923, p. 451). 



Aracoda Schmarda, Cenothrix Chamberlin, and Maclovia Grube are 

 referable to other recognized genera in the superfamily Eunicea and have 

 been so considered elsewhere (Mcintosh, 1910, p. 395; Monro, 1933i, 

 p. 88; and Fauvel, 1923, p. 438, respectively). Enonella Stimpson (1853,
