Excretory system. Meganephric, 



Reproductive system. Two pairs testes in segments 10 and 11, 

 into which the ciliated rosettes open. 



Spermiducal glands, coiled, tubular, in segments 18-21. 



Sperm sacs, lobate, attached to the posterior wall of 

 segment 9 and the anterior of segment 12. 



Ovaries in segment 13, into which the oviducts open. 



Spermathecae, five pairs in segments 5-9, each consisting of a 

 spherical sac with tubular duct and a short tubular diverticulum. 



Habitat, Neerim, Victoria. Under logs in the gum-tree 

 forests. 



(9). Dipopochaeta manni, sp. n. (Figs. 85, 86, 87). Spirit 

 specimens 2^ inches long, nearly ^ inch broad. 



Prostomium about half dovetailed into the peristomium. 



Clitellum extending over segments 14-16. Accessory copula- 

 tory structures, glandular patches at the level of the ventral- 

 most seta on each side on the anterior part of segments 6-9. 



Setae. Fourteen on the first setigerous segment, 14-17 in the 

 segments in front of the clitellum, 16-17 in the clitellar segments, 

 20 in the middle of the body. 



Male pores on slight papillae on segment 18 at the level of the 

 interval between the two most ventral setae. 



Oviduct pores on segment 14. 



Spermathecal pores at the level of the ventralmost setae, 

 between segments 4 and 5, 5 and 6, 6 and 6, 7 and 8, 8 and 9. 



Dorsal pores. The first between segments 5 and 6. 



Alimentary canal. Gizzard in segment 5, remarkable race- 

 mose glands in segments 5-9, one pair in each segment. The duct 

 appears to enter the canal in the segment in front of that in 

 which the gland lies. Vascular swellings in segments 12-16, 

 large intestine commencing in segment 19, 



Circulatory .system. Single dorsal vessel ; a sub-dorsal vessel 

 in segments 8-13 ; hearts in segments 6-12 ; in close relationship 

 with the glands of the alimentary canal. 



Excretory system. Meganephric, The nephridiopores distinct, 

 the first being placed on the second segment. In the front of the 

 clitellum they lie at the level of the eleventh setae, in the middle
