 to posterior regions of the body.

? Lepidametria sp. 



Monterey en, in 260 m ( 5 ) . 



This species is perhaps commensal with Arhynchite sp., an echiuroid 

 worm. Elytra are very small. The prostomium has anterior peaks. The 

 middorsum of each body segment has two erect nodes, in tandem ; they 

 appear lightly ehitinized. Superiormost neuropodial setae are slenderer 

 and more spinous than those in more inferior position. Notopodia are 

 represented by small setal fascicles, as characteristic of Lepidametria 

 and so distinguished from Lcpidasthenia. 



Lepidasthenia interrupta (^larenzeller) 1902 



Redondo en, in 76 m (2), possibly commensal with the maldanid, 

 Maldanella robusta (see below). 



Lepidasthenia Plongicirrata Berkeley, 1923 



Monterey en, in 168 m (6), possibly commensal with the maldanid, 

 Asychis disparidentata (see below).
