New forms: Mahbenus n. g. imperatrix n. sp. , Perichaeta pellucida n. sp. — 

 The Setae which first develop are replaced by others before the embryo leaves the 

 capsule : embryonic and permanent setae , developed in primary and secondary 

 setal matrices. In the embryos of Ilahbenus each nephridium consists of a prae- 

 septal funnel, a neck connecting the funnel with the glandular loop , and an ex- 

 cretory duct. The glandular loop arises by budding from the neck; secondary, 

 tertiary and as many as some fifty loops develop in the same region ; they be- 

 come ultimately separated, while each develops its own excretory duct and be- 

 comes a micronephridium. There does not exist a »plectonephric« condition.

The Ethiopian and Neotropical regions are the richest in peculiar genera. New 

 Zealand cannot be included in the Australian region. It forms with Patagonia, 

 the Falkland, Kerguelen and Marion Islands an Antarctic region, characterized 

 by the genus Acanthodrihis .

Euphrosyne cirrata anàfoliosa, specially compared with Spinther. The ca- 

 runcle is homologous with the tentacle of Spinther. Branchiae and dorsal cirri 

 are absent in Spinther. The digestive system of Spinther differs in the more lar- 

 gely developed lateral coeca , the less massively muscular proboscis, and the pre- 

 sence of a extensive dorsal blind-gut. — Description of a Spio-\ike larva of Ma- 

 gelona. — The larva found by Claparède at St. Vaast la Hougue has been met 

 with on the Norwegian coast at Christiansand. No further light has been thrown 

 on its relationships. It pertains to the Spionidae.
