Polycerella Emertoni Terrill. 
Polycerella Emertoni Verrill. Proc. U. 8. Nat. Mus., iii, p. 387, 1880. 
This species was first taken by me at Wood’s Holl, in September, 
1875 , at the surface among eel-grass; and on hy droids from the piles 
of Long Wharf, New Haven, Conn., October, 1875 . At Newport, 
R. I., it was found by Mr. J. H. Emerton and the writer, in July and 
August, on filamentous algie, especially Ceramium rubrum and Des- 
merestia viridis, growing on the mooring buoys and piles of wharves 
in the harbor. In 1881 , it was taken in considerable numbers in the 
harbor at Wood’s Holl, among eel-grass, in August and September.

Plate XLII, figure 13. 
This species was found, for the first time, upon the American 
coast, by Mr. J. II. Emerton, who discovered it at Salem, Mass., in 
1879 . His specimens agree very closely with Sars’s description and 
figures, both in external characters and in dentition, but not so well 
with those of Alder and Hancock.

Form and general appearance somewhat like Triopa and Triopella ,

side. Foot broad, rounded in front. A large opening, apparently
