brown everywhere ; the general color of the ventrum is the same as on 

 the dorsum, though the brown or green is not so distinct.

Phyllodoce (Sav.) Malmgren. 



Phyllodoce grcenlandica Orsted. 



1^0 adult specimens of this remarkably fine species were collected. 

 A number of half-grown specimens were taken. 



A minute, nearly spherical median papilla was seen in fresh speci- 

 mens on the anterior projecting margin of the buccal segment ; not 

 visible on alcoholic specimens. 



The transverse ridge between the segments is densely ciliated, and a 

 line of long cilia runs down the outer face of the branchiae near the pos- 

 terior margin. 



General color, dark green, with irregular brown markings; branchiae 

 brown, with light-green margin. 



The anal cirri are. about the length of the last five segments. 



Low water, sand, to 25 fathoms, sand and shells.

In the original descriiption the anal cirri are said to arise from " stout 

 basal articles, constituting one-third their entire length." This is a 

 mistake; they have no basal article. Only two specimens were taken 

 in Virginia, and but one of these had anal cirri, and these seem not to 

 have been normal. Near the front of the head there is a slight con- 

 striction. 



Low water, sand, common.

Probably gracilis; though, as no figures accompany the original de- 

 scrijjtion, one can hardly be certain without comparison with the typical 

 examples. 



Both males and females have very long and delicate capillary setae 

 developed in addition to the ordinary setae, not, as in the Syllid^,
