appendages sccni here to be an aj:;grcy;atc of vascular twigs. 

 Last hearts iu segment ix. One pair of nej)hri(lia i)er 

 segment. 



Testis-sacs moderately small, ovoidul, depending into 

 segment x. The vas deferens is a very large eoil, many 

 times as bulky as the testis-sac itself, in segments ix. and x. ; 

 it then runs along the inner border of the prostate, which 

 it enters near the ental end of the latter. The prostates 

 are of moderate size, elongated, and lying backwards, some- 

 what compressed so as to approximate to a tongue-shape; 

 there is no stalk, each being almost as thick at its attach- 

 luent to the body-wall as elsewhere. 



There is a complete ovarian chamber. The ovisacs are 

 small, iu segment xii. ; tlieir hinder end is much narrower, 

 and is bent forwards or transversely. 



The spermathecal ampulla is a small ovoid sac ; the duct 

 is much coiled, and lies on the posterior face of the septum ; 

 it pierces the septum low down, aud mounts to enter the 

 centre of the upper surface of the atrium. The atrium is 

 large, much larjrer than the ampulla ; it is shortly i)ear- 

 shaped, with the narrower end on the body-wall ; the upper 

 end is depressed where the duct enters. 



Bhagamandla, -1000 ft., Coorg, S. India. 



Draivida modest a, C. R. N. Rao. 



Length 75 mm. ; diameter 4 mm. Segments ca. 207, 

 very short, especially towards the hinder end. Colour 

 brown. Prostomium ? (destroyed). Dorsal pores absent. 

 Nephridiopores apparently in line with sette d. 



Setre closely paired; aa=:bc ; dd=\ circumfereuce or 

 slightly more. 



Clitellum not established. The male area resembles that 

 of D. somavarpalana; the male pores have prominent 

 anterior and posterior lips, and are themselves just out- 

 side the line of setae b. There are transverse groove-like 

 depressions in front of and behind the pores, on segments x. 

 and xi. respectively. The mid-ventral regions of segments x. 

 and xi. are somewhat depressed. 



Female pores? 



Spermathecal pores slightly outside the lines of 6; rather 

 further outside than the male pores. A slightly elevated 

 transversely oval flat papilla, brown in colour, is present 

 just iu front of leach spermathecal aperture, taking up in 

 longitudinal extent a length equal to two-fifths of the seg- 

 ment, and extending laterally from midway between the 

 lines a and b to midway between the lines h and c. 



Septa 5/6—8/9 thickened. There are two gizzards, in 

 xii. and xiii. ; there is, in addition, a slight thickening o£
