1914, p. 175, pl. xxxviul, figs. 3, 4. 
The occurrence of Aglaophenia armata in Tasmanian 
waters is of interest since this species has only within the 
last month been described by Bale from Queensland. 
Although my specimen is somewhat fragmentary and 
evidently the terminal portion of a branch, it is sufficient 
to confirm Bale’s description of the long tubular hydrotheceze 
and the peculiar position of the intrathecal ridge, a 
character shared only by Aglaophenia megalocarpa, Bale. 
The specimen is extremely dark in colour, and in this 
respect presents a striking contrast to the type, which is 
light brown in colour. The gonosome was not observed.
