the collection of the Academy of Natural Sciences, taken by Dr. Sharp 



at Icy Cape. They vary from 25 to 40 mm. in length and one has the 



posterior end regenerating. This species is easily distinguished from 



the next by having smooth setae, whereas in T. pupa they are hispid 



and also somewhat stouter.
