MONILIGASTER GRANDIS, A. G. B. 365 
S permathecopores in the direction of the outer seta rows. 
Septa vi-vi to vil1-1x slightly thickened. 
Gizzard in four lobes, occupying Segments x1v—xvII. 
Sperm-sacs oval, rather pointed at the ends. 
Prostates hemispherical, appear glandular. 
Ovaries not enclosed. 
Spermathece pyriform to oval. 
Copulatory pouches small and simple. 
Habitat.—Ootacamund. 
Remarks.—This occurs with the two preceding species, 
but is very easily picked out owing to its pigment. 
M. ophidioides, sp. n. 
Size, 310 mm. long, 21:5 mm. in circumference. 
Segments, 200, not annulated. 
Pigment present in quantity, bluish to olive green. 
Sete 0°35 mm. long, dorsal gap 12 mm., lateral gaps 
3°25 mm., ventral gap 3 mm. Couples very closely paired. 
Nephridiopores mostly in the direction of the outer seta 
rows, those of Segments vil, vill, and x11 usually, and others 
occasionally, 3 mm. nearer the dorsal median line; occasion- 
ally some of the pores are in the direction of the inner seta rows. 
Male pores nearer the outer seta rows than the inner. 
Oviducal pores in the direction of the inner seta rows. 
Spermathecopores in the direction of the outer setz. 
Septa v-vr to viit-1x thickened but only slightly so, the 
most anterior of the four hardly so at all. 
Gizzard in three lobes occupying Segments x1v—xvi (see 
remarks below). 
Sperm-sacs very rounded, oval. 
Prostates oblately hemispherical or, including a little 
more than the hemisphere, glandular in appearance. 
~ Ovaries enclosed. 
Spermathece pyriform and globular. 
Capillary pouches bilobed, a short teat-shaped lobe in 
front of Septum vii-vi11, and a longer one behind the septum.
