Spermathecce, five pairs, in segments 5-9. Each consisting 

 of a sac, with a diverticukim about the same length as the 

 latter. 



Habitat. Fern Tree Gully. 



(4) Ferichceta ho(jrjll, sp. n. (Figs. 28, 29, 80, 80). Length 

 of spirit specimen 4-J inches, ^ inch broad. Number 

 of segments about 12o. 



Prostomium not completely dovetailed into the peristo- 

 mium (about one-half). The latter has a distinct median 

 ventral clett. 



Clitelluui occupying the posterior part of segment 13, 

 together with the segments 14, 15, \Q, and the anterior part 

 of segment 17. 



Seta3, except the first two segments, 12 on each side. 



Male pores on papillae in segment 18, at the level of the 

 innermost seta on each side. 



Oviduct pores on segment 14 ventral of, and anterior to, 

 the le\'el of the innermost setse. 



Spermathecal pores, five pairs, between segments 4 and 5, 

 5 and G, 6 and 7, 8 and 9, at the level of the innermost 

 setif. 



Accessory copulatory structures. Paired tumid patches 

 slightly anterior to, and at the level of the innermost set?e 

 in segments 20, 21 and 22. A median ventral ridge, occupy- 

 ing the space between the two innermost papillse, is present 

 on segn:ients 17 and 19. On segments 20, 21, and 22, median 

 ventral ridges are usually present, connecting the cii'cular 

 patches across the median line. 



Dorsal pores present, the first between segments 4 and 5. 



Alimentary canal. Gizzard in segments. Truecalciferous 

 glands in segments 10, 11, 12. Large intestine commencing 

 in segment 15. 



Circrdatory system. Single dorsal vessel. Last heart in 

 segment 1 2. Small hearts in segments G-9. 



Excretory system. Plectonephric. 



Reproductive system. Testes in segments 10 and 11, 

 with rosettes opening into the same segments. 



Prostates small, flattened, and bilobed with a single duct. 



Sperm sacs, two pairs ; one attached to the anterior wall 

 of segment 12, the other to the posteiior wall of segment 9. 



Ovaries in segment 13, oviducts opening into the same 

 seo-ment.
