The color of the animal is pale brown; the dorsal cirri have a 
greenish tint. 
Comparing our specimen with the description by Moore (1909a) 
we find that the form of the shafts of the setae is characteristic of E. 
levicornuta. In our animal, the median as well as the accessory spines 
are slightly stronger than in the type specimen, and are exactly as 
in Moore’s figure (1909a, pl. 16: fig. 30). Moore stated that although

(proboscis and parapodium with ventral cirrus on third segment omitted); b, posterior 
view of 80th parapodium; c, terminal end of shaft of seta. Lulalia parvoseta, new 
species: d, dorsal view of anterior end (all dorsal cirri and part of tentacular cirri missing); 
e, papilla of proboscis; f, anterior view of 19th parapodium; g, seta. 
the first segment is usually sharply separated from the prostomium, 
in one of his specimens they were dorsally almost continuous; this 
approaches the situation in our animal. The ventral cirrus of the 
second segment is flattened in the Puget Sound specimen contrary 
to the California material, but this character may be of lesser im- 
portance in view of the variability reported for E. viridis (Bellan, 
1964). The length of the parapodia of our specimen is about one-third 
the body width, not one-fourth as with Moore’s animals. The dorsal 
cirri in the type are rather leaflike, whereas in out animal they are 
fleshy.
