teeth, a single midventral micrognath, and a 

 dorsolateral arc of micrognaths. 



Body divided into an anterior region of 18 

 uniramous segments and a posterior region of 

 numerous rather flattened and biramous seg- 

 ments. Distinction between regions not obvious. 

 Anterior parapodia (Figure 7b) with a tapered 

 dorsal cirrus, a long setigerous trunk bearing 

 a tapered presetal lobe and a low, rounded 

 postsetal lip and a tapered ventral cirrus arising 

 from base of trunk. Posterior parapodia (Figure 

 7c) characterized by presence of one or two 

 short hooked notosetae (Figure 7e) emerging 

 from medial margin of reduced dorsal cirrus 

 now representing the notopodium. Neuropodium 

 and ventral cirnas similar to setigerous trunk 

 and ventral cinois of anterior segments. Setae 

 of anterior segments and neurosetae of posterior 

 segments identical; three superior ones being 

 spinigerous with heterogomph shaft-heads and 

 lightly serrated blades (Figure 7f) and one or 

 two inferior ones being falcigerous (Figure 7g) 

 with small blades ending in blunt tips. 



Pygidium brownish with a pair of long anal 

 cirri. 



Ri'iinifkx. — The characters of the paratypes 

 were very constant, the only differences from 

 the holotype that were noted being the presence 

 of 5 micrognaths in the dorsolateral arc in- 

 stead of 9 and the anterior region consisting 

 of 19 segments instead of 18. 



In general G. cai-oliuae resembles a small 

 Glychide but differs from that genus in the 

 possession of falcigerous setae, a reduced noto- 

 podium in the posterior region and possibly in 

 the proboscideal papillae although the range 

 of variation of these organs in Glycindc is un- 

 certain. The genus Goiiiadidcs was erected by 

 Hartmann-Schroder (1960) for G. aciciilutu 

 from the Red vSea. Regarding the proboscideal 

 papillae she stated: "ProboscidialeOrgane wenig 

 unterschiedlich." In 1962 she described G. fal- 

 cigi m from Peru with all neurosetae falcigerous 

 and proboscideal papillae of several types like 

 those of Ghjciiide although she does not men- 

 tion that genus. Gai/iadidcK carolhuw is closer 

 to G. aciciila but differs in the structure of the 

 notopodial hooks and the proboscideal papillae. 



Records. — Common on sand in 10-20 m off 

 Beaufort (21, *). This is the first record of the 

 genus from the Atlantic and the coast of the 

 United States.

Description. — Body about 30 mm long, olive 

 green in alcohol with midventral spots on ab- 

 dominal segments; prostomium long and tapered 

 with eyespots on both basal and distal rings. 

 Proboscis with the usual longitudinal rows of 

 dissimilar papillae; dorsolateral bands long, 

 clawlike and well chitinized, lateral and ventral 

 rows low and soft. .Jaws with a jjair of small 

 macrognaths ventrally and an arc of 15-25 

 micrognaths dorsally. No ventral micrognaths. 



Body divided into an anterior region of 36-39 

 uniramous segments and a posterior region of 

 numerous, rather flattened biramous segments. 

 Anterior feet (Figure 7i) with a tapered dorsal 

 cirrus not incised basally, a parapodial ti'unk 

 bearing one presetal and one postsetal lobe of 

 equal length and a digitiform ventral cirrus. 

 Setae all compound and spinigerous and arise 

 between partly fused presetal and postsetal 

 lobes. Posterior feet (Figure 7j) with a small 

 notopodium and much larger neuropodium. 

 Notopodial lobes and dorsal cii'rus subequal. 

 Notosetae (Figure 7k) short, .stout, and acicular, 

 the bluntly hooked end surmounted by a dag- 

 ger-shaped guard. Neuropodia generally simi- 

 lar to setigerous lobes of anterior feet but pre- 

 setal and postsetal lobes shorter and more 

 pointed and ventral cirrus stouter and more 

 distal in origin. Neurosetae spinigerous like 

 those of anterior feet.
