Prof. Yerrill has described a species of Sabellaria {S. vulgaris) 

 from Great ^gg Harbor, and in the proceedings of the Academy 

 Natural Sciences of Phila., for 1878, p. 300, mentions that he has 

 also received the same form from Beaufort, N. C. After care- 

 ful comparison of numerous specimens from New Jersey, "Virginia, 

 and North Carolina, I have found it impossible to refer au}'^ of 

 them to his species. It will be necessary to compare type speci- 

 mens of the two forms.

 fourth, and that the first ramus, though smaller than the second, is 

 not very small.
