Harmothoe fragilis Moore 
Evarnella fragilis —Hartman, 1959, p. 69. 
Harmoihoe fragilis —Pettibone, 1963, p. 39. 
One damaged incomplete specimen with eggs was collected in 
February 1963. Only the supracicular neurosetae are bidentate. The 
single remaining elytron conforms to figure 4, table 1, by Annenkova 
(1937) and figure b, table 6, by Imajima and Hartman (1964) for H. 
impar (Johnston). Pettibone (1963) already included Annenkova’s 
record (as reported by Ushakov, 1955) in the synonymy of H. fragilis. 
We consider our specimen to belong to Moore’s species because the 
European representatives of H. wmpar as described by McIntosh (1900) 
and Fauvel (1923) have inverted-conical or droplike papillae on the 
margins of the elytra, which is not the case with H. fragilis. Imajima 
and Hartman (1964) have doubted the justification of the genus 
Evarnella Chamberlin, and we follow them herein. 
Found on station 6. New for Puget Sound. Previously recorded 
from southern California and the northwestern Pacific. 
Hesperone complanata (Johnson) 
Johnson (1901) stated that the paired antenna is less than half 
the length of the prostomium (cf. Pettibone, 19538, pl. 18: fig. 155). 
Johnson’s largest animal was 21 mm long. In a small, incomplete 
animal, as well as in an incomplete specimen of 30 mm length with 26 
segments, and in another fragment of about the same size, we find 
that the antennae are slightly more than half as long as the prostomia. 
Family POLYODONTIDAE 
Peisidice aspera Johnson 
A 5-mm-long specimen collected in May contains moderately 
numerous polygonal eggs of up to 105u x 95y, and one-third to one- 
half of this in the third dimension. 
Four specimens of about 5 mm length, collected in daytime, have 
empty intestines, excepting one from station 6 that contains two 
sand grains of about 0.35 mm diameter. 
Family CHRYSOPETALIDAE 
Paleanotus bellis (Johnson) 
Paleanotus bellis—Hartman, 1961, p. 57. 
In California material examined by Hartman (1961), the ventral 
tentacular cirri of the right side were lacking, and this asymmetry 
was thought to be characteristic of the species. The type-locality is 
Monterey, Calif. In Puget Sound material, the cirri are present in
