In discussing the characters of Polygordius, Giard, C. R. xci. pp. 341-

Lymnotrypane (Macintosh) for the dioecious Polygordians, and Poly- 
gordius for the hermaphrodite, smaller, and more archaic forms. He 
describes as sp. n. L. erythrophthalma. In discussing the systematic 
affinities he denies that the Polygordians are intermediate forms ; he 
looks upon them as having their closest allies in Polyophthalmus.
