ey) ANNELIDA FROM BERMUDA. 
There are, probably, four eyes, but in the alcoholic specimens only two 
could be seen; these were lateral, circular, large, on the median line. 
Antenne smooth, cylindrical to near the apex, then tapering sud- 
denly; median antenna about one-third longer than the lateral. 
Superior tentacular cirrus about equal in length to the median anten- 
na; inferior cirrus as long as the lateral antenne. 
Palpi triangular, stout, tapering uniformly to near the end, terminat- 
ing in a small conical process; their margins are scalloped, and their 
surfaces thrown into folds by deeply impressed lines; length about that 
of the lateral antenne. 
There are eighteen pairs of elytra. (Schmarda gives seventeen in 
the text; in the figure, seventeen on one side, eighteen on the other). 
The first pair, circular; the others, oval (Fig. 18); slightly emarginate 
along the anterior margin; covered with small, white, rounded papille 
on their exposed surface, becoming more numerous on the posterior 
elytra. 
The feet are quite stout; dorsal ramus (Fig. 17) minute; ventral ra- 
mus divided into two parts by slight longitudinal constrictions; dorsal 
cirri arising from stout basal articles, reaching a little beyond the ven- 
tral setee; ventral cirri of first pair as long as the dorsal cirri, and sim- 
ilar to them in all respects, directed forwards. After the first pair they 
arise from minute basal articles, are fusiform, reach to the end of the 
ventral ramus. 
There are from 6 to 10 dorsal set (Fig. 20), short, acute, broad at 
base, transversely serrate. Ventral sets (Fig. 19) stout, bi-dentate, ex- 
cept those of the first segment, which end in a single point. They are 
in two bundles, but are all of one kind. 
Exposed part of elytra, blue; covered part, grayish-white; papille 
of elytra, white; body, beneath the elytra, blue; anterior part of head - 
and bases of elytra, blue; posterior part of head with numerous black 
pigment spots; feet and ventral surface, yellowish-white; dorsal cirri 
with a blackish band near the base, and another about two-thirds of the 
way out. 
I refer the specimens sent me by Mr. Goode to Polynoé leucohyba 
SCHMARDA, though it will be seen that the figures differ, especially © 
those of the sete. Baird has doubtfully referred this species to An- 
tinoé KINBERG, but Fig. 16 shows that it cannot be so referred. 
Schmarda says nothing about the head. |
