Shaft of composite seta, rotated 90'; f. aciculum. parapodium 10. ocular spots near anterior prostomial margin. Palpi twice wide as long, nearly long as prostomium. They are directed ventrally. basally fused. Prostomial an- tennae smooth, clavate. Median antenna arises between posterior eyes, approx- imately '^ times longer than the prostomium. Lateral antennae, inserted an- teromedial to anterior pair of eyes: are nearly three times length of prostomiimi. twice length of median antenna. Pharynx (Fig. 2a) unarmed, lacks distal papillae, trepan or teeth. Proventriculus. inverted, extends through setigers 4 to 7. Two pairs tentacular cirri on peristomium; resembling prostomial antennae in shape, approximately times as long. Parapodia short, conical (Fig. 2b). Parapodia of setiger 1 with dorsal cirrus distally inflated, wrinkled throughout. Dorsal cirri of remaining setigers strongly articulated: anterior cirri have 15-20 articles decreas- ing to around 10 articles in posterior parapodia. Golden-yellow color of dorsal cirri due to presence of one or tv\o tluid-fillcd \csiclcs within each article ( Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Southern California Academy of Sciences.
