Reproductive system. Testes in segments 10 and 11, ciliated 

 rosettes in the same segments. 



Prostates very long, extending through segments 18-27, 

 tubular, coiled. 



Sperm sacs, racemose, on the posterior face of segment 9 and 

 the anterior of segment 12. 



Ovaries in segment 13, into which also the oviducts open. 



Spermathecfe, five pairs, in segments 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. The 

 diverticulum simple and about one-half the length of the sac. 



Habitat. Parattah, Tasmania, under logs. 



(8). C. ellisii (Figs. 22, 23, 24). Length in spirits 1-1^ inches 

 about \ inch broad. The dorsal surface (in spirits) is 

 dark purple in front of the clitellar region, brown behind 

 this, and dull flesh colour at the posterior end, the 

 ventral surface throughout being lighter in colour than 

 the dorsal. The clitellum is dull flesh colour. 



Prostomium dovetailed one-half into the peristomium and 

 marked by a median dorsal line which is continued down the 

 body. 



Clitelluin distinct, tumid, lighter coloured than the surround- 

 ing parts and extending completely over segments 14-16. It 

 may include the posterior part of segment 13. 



Setfe in 4 couples regularly arranged. The two inner ones on 

 either side nearer together than the two outer ones. The spaces 

 between setpe 2 and 3, 3 and 4, and dorsally between seta 4 of 

 each side being about equal. 



Male pores on papillse on segment 18, the pore being at the 

 level of the second seta of each side or perhaps slightly ventral 

 of this. 



Oviduct pores on segment 1 4. 



Spermathecal pores, thi'ee in number, on white elliptical 

 patches at the level of the second setse between segments 6 and 7, 

 7 and 8, 8 and 9. 



Accessory copulatory structures. Two elliptical patches at the 

 level between the two inner setic of each side on the anterior 

 faces of segments 10 and 11. Two pairs at the same level 

 between segments 17 and 18, 18 and 19. Two pairs at the same 

 level on the anterior marjcins of segments 20 and 21.
