NO. 1703. SOME POLYCH^TOUS ANNELIDS— MOORE. 135 



Pierre Harbor, October 1, 5 fathoms, rock and gravel ; Browns Bank, 

 off Cape Sable, Nova Scotia, October 8, 45 fathoms; 43 miles west 

 by south from Cape Sable, October 8, 110 fathoms, gravel. 



This widel}^ distributed species appears to be common throughout 

 the region represented. The usual marked variations in color, mar- 

 ginal ciliation, and papillation of the elytra occur. Packard reports 

 this species as common along the coast of Labrador. It is probable 

 that he did not fully differentiate this from other species of 

 Polynoidae. 



L^NILLA GLABRA Malmgren. 



Egg Harbor, August 10, 7 fathoms, mud. A single example among 

 several of the last, from which it is distinguishable only upon careful 

 examination. Apparently not previously recorded from the Ameri- 

 can coast. 



EUNOE CERSTEDI Malmgren. 



Browns Bank, off Cape Sable, Nova Scotia, October 8, 40-45 fath- 

 oms, rock}^ and sandy; 20 miles east of Cape Sable, October 7, 70 

 fathoms, fine sand; about 40 miles west by south from Cape Sable, 

 October 8, 7G fathoms, black gravel. The el3^tral papillae are large 

 and usually rough, generally conical, but in some cases bifid or even 

 trifid. On our coast this sjjecies occurs as far south as Crab Ledge, 

 off Chatham, Massachusetts, and is common in Casco Bay, Maine. 



ANTINOE SARSI Kinberg. 



Halfway from Cape Mugford to Hebron, August 23, 60 fathoms, 

 mud and sand. Five tj'pical examples like those occurring on the 

 coasts of northern Europe and Greenland. Known as far south as 

 Casco Bay. 



GATTYANA CIRROSA (Pallas) Mcintosh. 



Egg Harbor, August 10, 7 fathoms, mud; Shoal Tickle, southeast 

 of Nain, August 15 ; off Beachy Island, between Flint Island and 

 Cape Mugford, August 22, 80 fathoms, soft mud; halfway between 

 Cape Mugford and Hebron, August 23, 60 fathoms, mud and sand; 

 outside of Hebron, August 25, 60 fathoms, gravel; Browns Bank, 

 off Cape Sable, Nova Scotia, October 8, 40 fathoms, rocky and 

 sandj^ 



Except under date of August 23, when four specimens were taken, 

 single examples only of this species occur in the collections from 

 each locality. From G. amondseni in this collection they are readily 

 distinguished by the broader, more depressed form and by the elytra, 

 which have larger and rougher papilla? and much longer marginal 

 cilia; considerable numbers of cilia, not exhibited in Malmgren 's 

 figures, are scattered over the dorsal surface also.
