Oviduct pores on an oval glandular patch on the anterior 

 margin, ventrally, of segment 14. 



Spermathecal pores, 4 pairs, intersegmental at the level of the 

 ventralmost setae between segments 4 and 5, 5 and 6, 6 and 7, 

 7 and 8. 



Dorsal pores present ; the first between segments 3 and 4. 



Nephridiopores on the anterior margin of the segments at the 

 level of the third seta. The first on segment 1. 



Alimentary canal. Gizzard in segment 5. Vascular swellings 

 on the oesophagus in segments 13, 14 and 15. No true 

 calciferous glands. Large intestine, commencing in segment 18. 



Blood vascular system. Dorsal vessel single; hearts in segments 

 5-13. 



Excretory system. Meganephric. Peptonephridia in well 

 marked groups in segments 2, 3 and 4. 



Reproductive system. Testes, two pairs, in segments 10 and 

 11, into which the ciliated rosettes open. 



Spermiducal glands, coiled, tubular, in segments 18 and 19. 



Sperm sacs. Racemose, attached to the posterior wall of 

 segment 9 and the anterior of segment 1 2. 



Oviducts in segment 13, into which the oviducts open. 



Spermathecae, 4 pairs ; each consists of a long sac and very 

 short diverticulum. 



Habitat. Warrandyte, Victoria. Under logs. On each 

 segment in front of the clitellum just below the third seta on 

 each side in a distinct brown spot. 



(6). Megascolides warragulensis, sp., n. (Figs. 22, 23, 

 24). Spirit specimens from 4i to o^ inches long, J^ inch 

 broad. 



Prostomium just wedged into the peristomium with a distinct 

 groove running back along the mid dorsal line of the latter from 

 the apex of the wedge. 



Clitellum well developed, extending over the posterior part of 

 segment 13 and over segment 14-18. Ventrally the posterior 

 part of segment 17 and segment 18 are not included. A 

 glandular ridge is present ventrally between segments 18 and 

 19.
