34G DR. BAIED ON SEVERAL GENERA OF EUNICEA. 



Hob. Van Diemen's Land {3£us. Brit.) ; Port Western, Qua- 

 trefages. 



In this species simple setae, pectinate setae, and compound setae 

 are present. The spines or aciculae are two ; but there is only one 

 uncinus, which is similar in form to the spines, is strongly curved 

 and not forcipate at the apex. 



III. Species in which the tmcini are forcipate at the apex. 

 = ? Leodoce, Savigny, as restricted.

Leodoce annulicornis, Spinola, MS. ? 



This species was described by Dr. Johnston from a specimen 

 contained in the collection of the British Museum. It was named 

 Leodoce annulicornis in our collection-r-a specific name which 

 Johnston adopted. The label was marked " Spinola," and it was 

 erroneously considered by Dr. J. that that name was the habitat 

 whence it came. It is in reality the E. annulicornis of Maximi- 

 lian Spinola, but, I believe, only a MS. name ; and its native habi- 

 tat may probably be the Grulf of Genoa. The simple setae are 

 long, lanceolate flagelliform, and long and acutely pointed. Pecti- 

 nate setae long, slender, the outermost tooth of the pectinated head 

 being much elongated beyond the others and straight. Compound 

 setae with the shaft stout, broadly triangular at the apex, where the 

 appendage is fixed, and striated ; falciform appendage bidentate, 

 teeth rather small. Aciculae two or three ; on the upper feet there 

 appear to be three, and no uncini. On the lower feet there appear 

 to be only one acicula and one uncinus, which is curved in its 

 length, and has the apex merely emarginate and not forcipate. 



In this species the three kinds of setae are present — simple, pec- 

 tinate, and compound. The spines or aciculae are two in number ; 

 but there is only one uncinus, nearly equal in size to the aciculae, 

 and forcipate at the apex.
