230 SCIENTIFIC RESULTS OF THE 
short penis. The spermatotheca pyriform, about 1.3 mm. long; the 
spermatocysta not having one-fourth,of the size of the last; both 
empty. ‘The mucous gland whitish and yellow-whitish. 
This seems even externally to differ somewhat from the typical form, 
of which it nevertheless may prove to be but a variety. Neither Alder 
and Hancock, nor Meyer and Moebius saw more than eight to (nine) 
ten external plates on the tongue of Ad. proxima, while this Pacific 
form always presented fifteen.

Hab. Oc. Pacific. septentr. Unalashka. 
Of this species Dall found four specimens at Unalashka, on gravel, 
in a depth of nine to fifteen fathoms, in September, 1874. 
According to Dall the color of the living animal was “ greenish,” 
and the animals preserved in spirits showed remains of the same color 
as a uniform grayish green. The length of these was 11.5-12.0 mm., 
by a breadth of 8.0 mm. and a height of 5.0 mm,; the height of the 
rhinophoria about 2.0, of the branchial leaves about 1.0 mm. 
The form, as well as the rhinophor-openings, were quite as usual ; 
the club of the rhinophoria with about thirty-five leaves. The gill not 
. large, with nine to twelve leaves; the space within the gill as usual, 
also the arms and the renal pore. The back covered with granula- 
tions and short clubs. The head, with the tentacule and the genital 
opening as usual. 
Three individuals were dissected ; the peritoncum was colorless. 
The central nervous system showed the cerebral ganglia larger than 
the visceral, which were lying on the outside of and behind the former, 
very distinct from them; the pedal ones being intermediate in size 
between the cerebral and the visceral ganglia. On the exterior part of 
each cerebral ganglion a little short-stalked ganglion (gang. opticum ?) 
was easily visible under a hand magnifier. ‘The (proximal) olfac- 
tory ganglia bulbiform, short-stalked, a little larger than the buccal 
ganglia, which were short-oval, connected through a very short com- 
-missure; the gastro-cesophageal being about one-fourth to one-fifth of 
the size of the former. In the neighborhood of the penis a little oval 
ganglion (g. penis) having a largest diameter of about 0.25 mm. 
(fig. 5), containing only rather small cells.
