NO. 1 HARTMAN : POLYCHAETOUS ANNELIDS 169 



Grube (1878, p. 91) indicated that Kinberg's specimen was not the 

 same as his (1856, p. 159) from Rio de Janeiro, therefore proposed the 

 name L. januarii, without, however, adding to the original account. This 

 name is not to be confused with L. janeirensis ( Augener) ( 1934, p. 388) 

 also from Rio de Janeiro. 



Distribution. — L. januarii is now known only from 2 widely spaced 

 areas — Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Kinberg), and Tobago, West Indies; the 

 latter is from 9-18 fms.
