Moseley (17) describes the following new genera and species of 
Laud Planarians : — 
Coinoplana. Body long and worm- like, much rounded on the back, 
flattened on the under surface, without an ambulacral line ; external 
longitudinal muscular bundles largely and evenly developed over both 
dorsal and ventral regions ; lateral organs as in Rhynchodernus \ eyes 
absent from the front of the anterior extremity, but present in two 
lateral elongate crowded patches, placed just behind the anterior extre- 
mity and scattered sparsely on the lateral margins of the body for its 
entire extent ; mouth nearly central, pharynx cylindrical. For C- 
cceridea and sanguinea, Paramatta, Sydney, subviridis, Camden and 
Paramatta, N.S.W. 
Dolichoplana. Body extremely long and narrow, flattened, and band- 
like, tapering to a blunt point at either extremity ; mouth situate at a 
distance from the anterior extremity of about one third the length of 
the body ; generative aperture at about the same distance posterior to 
it ; eyes two only, as in Rhynchodemus ; external longitudinal muscular 
bundles very much developed all over the body, but especially in the 
dorsal regions, where they are the only longitudinal muscles present ; 
ambulacral line slightly indicated ; lateral organs as in Rhynchodemus. 
For D. striata, near Manilla.
