clavate behind, dilated and papillous before; mouth ter¬ 
minal, and furrounded with a villous rim or wrinkle. 
There are two hundre'd and feventy-eight rings between 
the villous part and the hinder end, fe'parated by an an¬ 
nular ftria ; the hind part bulbous, with a double papilla ; 
the fore-part befet with numerous flefli-coloured ones dif- 
pofed in tranfverfe rows. 
12. Lumbricus oxyurus ; body whitifh livid, very fharp 
at the hind extremity, and obtufe before, with a round 
retractile and exlertiie probol’cis. This fpecies is found 
on the Suflex coaft, is about an inch and a half long, and 
annulate with very fine ffrise; fnout truncate, and very 
fine, granulate, with a pore at the bafe fcarcely vifible. 
13. Lumbricus fragilis: body red, with lateral divided 
warts, and fafciculate briftles. The body of this fpecies re- 
iembles the terreltris, with above two hundred fmooth and 
very brittle rings; the head is conic, with an approximate 
wrinkled mouth. It inhabits the muddy bottom of the 
bays of Norway. It is fhown of the natural fize at fig. 8. 
and the fix upper fegments, with the head, are magnified 
at fig. 9. 
14.. Lumbricus armiger: body red, with double lanceo¬ 
late lamellce on the belly, and none on the fore-part; is 
about two inches long, and confining of about one hun¬ 
dred rings. Found in the iflands of Norway. This is 
fhown of the natural fize at fig. 10. Fig. 11 reprefents 
the upper or anterior part magnified, from which it will 
be obferved, that the briftles which (tart from the joint¬ 
ings of the rings in mod of the fpecies do not, in this, be¬ 
gin to fliow themfelves till about the eighteenth ring from 
the head. 
15. Lumbricus cirratus: body with annular joints, and 
very long cirri. Inhabits the feas of Norway. 
16. Lumbricus fabellaris: body jointed, and truncate 
at the upper end ; interfeftions of the joints thick, and 
armed (except the firli four) with a prickle on each fide. 
This fpecies in fome refpedts refembles the tubicola, and 
has been miftaken for it; but it is longer and thicker; 
the feCfions are 21 or 22 in number, of which the ante¬ 
rior four are the (horteft, the middle ones the longed, and 
each fegment is narrower in the middle than at the joint. 
It is a very rare fpecies; and the upper part, or mouth, is 
of a very peculiar form. See the Plate, fig. 12. which 
fhows it of the natural fize. It inhabits the feas of Nor¬ 
way. Gmelin's Linn. Zoologia Danica, tom. i. ii. iii.
