cula, which occur metamerically in each of somites xiii-xix. The 

 last pair are reflected posteriorly and extend into somite xxiii, 

 sending out four lateral 

 pouches in each of somites 

 xix-xxii. The stomach 

 bears fours pairs of lat- 

 eral pouches and posteri- 

 orly joins the wide intes- 

 tine which opens dorsally 

 between the last two som- 

 ites. 



The male genital ori- 

 fice is placed between 

 somites xi and xii ; the 

 female orifce lies two 

 rings behind the male, 

 tliat is, between the sec- 

 ond and third rings of 

 somite xii. 



The present species 

 seems to be allied to Gl. 

 smayagdina , Oka, rather 

 than to Gl. falttdosa, 

 Carena, but may be dis- 

 tinguished from them 

 chiefly by the different 

 arrangement of eyes as 

 well as in the possession 

 of well-developed pigment 

 all over the surface.
