Friend: New Records for British Annelids. 413 
prevalent form of Allolobophora, and sparingly at Bridlington, 
Carlisle, in Scotland, Derbyshire, and elsewhere. 
These notes, which do not by any means exhaust the year’s 
records, will suffice to suggest the direction in which our subject 
is advancing. 
II. ANNELIDS NEw TO BRITAIN. 
The year has been fruitful in this direction also. A few 
worms which were known to occur in Ireland or Scotland have 
now been found in England too, while others are at present 
known only in England so far as these islands are concerned. 
It is pleasing to be able to record the occurrence in England of 
Monopylephorus trichocheta Dit., and M. parvus Dit. They 
were both found in the mud on the banks of the Thames off 
Kew Gardens, along with Paranais naidina Bret., Helodrilus, 
an Enchytreus new to science, and other novel oligochets. A 
new Trichodrilus and a new Stylodrilus are under examination. 
The Enchytreids have been the chief subject of investigation, 
and mention may be made of Buchholzia appendiculata Buch., 
found at Smisby near Ashby, and elsewhere ; Enchytreus mini- 
mus Bret. and E. turicensis Bret., found in Derbyshire; F71- 
devicia paroniana Bret., a beautiful pigmy form discovered 
at Acresford near Ashby-de-la-Zouch with the last named, 
and another rare Enchytreid named Acheta cameranot Cog- 
netti. This is a most interesting addition to our worm fauna, 
since the creature not only has no sete, but is even destitute of 
the sacs which are usually found in other species of Acheta. 
Fridericia bisetosa Lev. as well as fF. bulbosa Rosa may 
now be definitely added to the English list. During my stay 
at Sutton Broads Laboratory in August two or th«ee new species 
of Fridericia were discovered ; but these, together with some 
other Enchytreids from Newton Moss in Cumberland, and 
Newark, have yet to be determined. Henlea rosa: Bret. was 
found by me at Buxton on May 27th, 1911. Lumbricillus 
(Pachydrilus) verrucosus Clap. occurs near Ashby-de-la-Zouch. 
I find on reference to my notes that there are several 
other species which have long been known to me which do not 
occur in the lists published by Southern and others. These will 
be enumerated in due course when the whole subject will come 
up for careful revision. 
No new species of Lumbricid has been added to our lists 
since Dendrobena merciencis Friend was discovered. We pass, 
therefore, to our final subject, viz. :— 
III. SpEcIES NEW TO SCIENCE. 
In a letter to Nature, September 21st, 1911, I stated that 
a new Monopylephorus had been found in the Thames ooze. 
Further examination shewed that the worm had already been
