Collections. This species has been taken from shelf depths of southern 

 California in sandy silts or shelly sediments. 



The body is short, tumid and measures about 20 mm long. The pros- 

 tomium is wider than long, has a straight posterior margin and is 

 broadly rounded in front. The paired antennae are inserted in front; 

 they are short, subequal and exceeded in size by the median antenna, in 

 front of the large, dark, circular eyes. A dark diffuse pigment marks the 

 anterior half of the prostomium, in front of the ocular area. The same 

 dark pigment forms transverse bands across the body segments, and the 

 dorsal cirri are diffused with dark pigment. Segment 1 is dorsally re- 

 duced ; the second forms a short ring all around and has a setal tuft on 

 either side. Dorsal cirri are foliaceous, about as broad as long, and do 

 not greatly exceed in size the ventral cirri. 



The fully everted proboscis is subcylindrical and smooth throughout 

 its length. Eumida bifoliata is known from central and southern Cali- 

 fornia, in depths to 149 fms.
