smooth. The attachment to the scale-tubercle is excentric ; the 

 form of the elytra is oval. The dorsal cirri are smooth ; the 

 ventrals small. The teeth of the dorsal setae are curved, slender, 

 and distant. In the neuropodium the seta? are of two kinds. 

 Of these the one set are straight and have few but pointed teeth, 

 pointed in opposite directions ; the others are somewhat waved 

 and broad, bear large three-cornered teeth only on one side, and 

 have the apex divided into two teeth. {Schmarda).

I have not seen this species. The two forms of ventral setae 

 described and figured by Schmarda are evidently the same form 

 viewed from two different sides.

The body contains 36 or 37 segments with 14 pairs of elytra. 

 The head is deeply divided, each lobe being slightly produced and 

 pointed anteriorly. The anterior pair of eyes are placed close to 

 the anterior angles. The mesial tentacle is fully twice the length 

 of the head, papillose, with a slight swelling near the apex, and 

 a terminal slender portion. The lateral praestomial tentacles are 

 extremely short, not longer than the head, and slender, springing 

 from below the apex of the cephalic lobes. The inner peristomial 

 tentacles are as long as the mesial praestomial, stouter, pointed, 

 the upper outer peristomials are rather longer than the inner, 

 and of the same shape as the mesial tentacle ; the lower are rather 

 shorter. The elytra are delicate, not fringed, black behind, 

 lighter in front with a circular black spot in the centre of the 

 surface of attachment, and with small white dots in the posterior 

 black portion ; there is a band of very short papillae near the 

 outer border. The anal cirri are as long as the last eight segments.

 name of Polynoe tAyrtiUcola.
