Cephalodella elegans is not common; we have collected it in small 
numbers among sphagnum and other submerged plants in a swamp 
near Oceanville, New Jersey. It is readily distinguished by the 
very slender, depressed body and the long toes. 
CEPHALODELLA GALBINA Myers, new species. 
Plate XXXI, figure 1. 
The body is very short, stout and gibbous dorsally. The head 
is relatively short, very broad and slightly deflexed. The neck is 
not strongly marked. The abdomen is short and very broad, with 
its greatest width near mid-length. The lorica is very flexible, 
but the plates are well marked; the lateral clefts are narrow an¬ 
teriorly and increase gradually in width towards the posterior end. 
The foot is short and stout; the tail is fairly prominent and some¬ 
what beyond mid-length. The toes are very long, slender, slightly 
decurved, rather stout at the base and taper gradually to very 
acute points; their length is about two fifths of the total length. 
The foot glands are small and pyriform. 
The corona is slightly oblique and strongly convex without pro¬ 
jecting lips. 
The mastax is huge and of the normal type; the fulcrum is 
nearly half the length of the entire body and the posterior end 
very slightly expanded, the manubria short, slender, slightly re¬ 
curved and clubbed posteriorly, but not crutched. The gastric 
glands are very small and ovate. 
The ganglion is very long and saccate; no retrocerebral organ 
is present. The eyespot is at the posterior end of the ganglion. 
Total length 100-110/x; toes 38-42/x. 
Cephalodella galhina is rather rare; we have collected it only 
among submerged sphagnum in a soft, acid water pond at Gravelly 
Kun, near Mays Landing, New Jersey. Its nearest relative is prob¬ 
ably C. dorseyi, from which it differs in the much shorter and 
stouter body, huge mastax and long, decurved toes. 
CEPHALODELLA BELONE Myers, new species. 
Plate XXXI, figure 2. 
The body is small and conical, tapering increasingly from the 
head towards the foot. The head is very large, fully one third the 
length of the entire body and somewhat wider than the abdomen.
