 51° 38' 00" S, 57° 32' 30" W. 82 m. Gear OTC. Bottom: sand. One specimen. 



,St. WS 84. 24. iii. 27. 7I miles S 9° W of Sea Lion Island, East Falkland Island. From 

 52" 33' 00" S, 59° 08' 00" W to 52" 34' 30" S, 59° 11' 00" W. 75-74 m. Gear OTC. Bottom: 

 coarse sand, shell and stones. One specimen. 



St. WS85. 25. iii. 27. 8 miles S 66° E of Lively Island, East Falkland Island. From 52° 09' 00" S, 

 58° 14' 00" W to 52° 08' 00" S, 58° 09' 00" W. 79 m. Gear OTC. Bottom: sand and shell. One

St. WS 88. 6. iv. 27. 54° 00' 00" S, 64° 57' 30" W. From 54° 00' 00" S, 65" 00' 00" W to 

 54° 00' 00" S, 64° 55' 00" W. ii8m. Gear OTC. Bottom: sand, shell and stones. Three specimens. 



St. MS(?). 13. iv. 25. East Cumberland Bay, South Georgia. One specimen. 



Remarks. The majority of examples are bright yellow with a dark brown transverse 

 band in each segment. They correspond closely to Ehlers' E. crassifolia which Bergstrom 

 identifies with E. sculpta. 



The dorsal cirri are symmetrical, but I do not find their breadth invariably exceeding 

 their length, as Bergstrom claims. Roughly speaking, the length and breadth are about 

 the same. 



The most easily appreciable difference between this species and E. rubella is that in 

 the latter species the aciculum and chaeta-sac are considerably more prominent in relation 

 to the cirri than they are in E. sculpta. Bergstrom 's suggestion that E. sculpta is a variety 

 of the Arctic E. flava seems to me sound. 



Eteone aurantiaca, Schmarda. 



Bergstrom, 1914, p. 201, text-fig. 76, with synonymy. 

 St. WS 65. 22. i. 27. Undine Harbour (North), South Georgia. With kelp root. One specimen. 



Remarks. A small Eteone, which I attribute to this species on the ground of its short 

 asymmetrical dorsal cirri. 



Eteone rubella, Ehlers.
