XV. VERMES. 
ciliated grooves of the intestine covered by epidermis, and with the axial- 
canal in the dorsal nerve-cord opening to the exterior both anteriorly 
and posteriorly. 
DISTRIBUTION. 
Ptychodera Jiava , Esch., on Funafuti Atoll, off Noumea (New Caledonia), 
and from a rock-pool on Lifu (Loyalty Is.), on the I. of Admddde (inside 
Great Barrier Reef of New Caledonia), and I. of Pines; Hill; and 
Willey (I) & (2). 
SYSTEMATIC. 
Ptychodera (s. str.) hedleyi , n. sp., Funafuti Atoll, external and internal 
anatomy; Hill, Mem. Austral. Mus. iii, pp. 203 & 333. 
P. caledoniehsis , provisional new species, for what is probably to be iden- 
tified with P. {chlamy do thorax) Jiava , Esch., I. of Adm^dc^e (inside 
Great Barrier Reef of New Caledonia), and I. of Pines ; Willey, Quart. 
J. mikr. Sci. xl, p. 182. Hill, finding the same species on Funa- 
futi Atoll, identifies it with P. jiava , Esch., and Willey (2) accepts 
this identification, with the proviso, that if it should not turn out to 
be the same as the species occurring in the Marshall Is. (the original 
locality of Eschscholtz’ species) the latter will have to bo renamed.
