INTRODUCTION. H 



Class 3, Pteropoda. 



In this class tlie organs of locomotion are a pair of flesliy, wing-like fins 

 at the sides of the n^ck. It includes but one order. PI. 7i, fig. 22, Clio. 



Class 4. Cejghalopoda. 



The body is formed like a sack, the head is surrounded with long arms,

Division III. Akticulata. 



Class 1. Annelida. 



"Worms with cold red blood, the body lengthened and divided into rings, 

 of which the first forms the head. Articulated feet are never present, but 

 many of the genera are provided with stifli* movable bristles. I^early all 

 live in water ; the Lmnbrictis (earth-worm) is, however, an exception. 

 Some live in tubes which they form in the bottom, some form them out of 

 agglutinated particles of sand, and others secrete a kind of shel? Some of 

 these, on account of the shell, have been thoughtlessly classified with the 

 Mollusca. 



Order 1. Abranchiata. PI. 74, fig. 24, Hinido (leech). 



" 2. DoRSiBRANCHiATA. " " 25, Aphrodite. 



" 3. TuBicoLA. " " 26, AmpfUtrite. 



Class 2. Cirrhopoda. ^ 



This class was formerly included in the Mollusca, on account of the shell ; 

 its afiinities are, however, with the Crustacea. They are attached to stones, 

 corals, crabs, shells, the bottoms of ships, whales, and marine tortoises.

Class 3. Crustacea. ' 



This class includes the articulata with articulate feet, which breathe by 

 means of gills. Their circulation is double. There are two pair of 

 antennae, and never less than five pair of feet, and there are frequently
