Galathowenia africana Kirkegaard, 1959, p. 67, fig. 17. NEW SYNONYM. Numerous specimens were taken at Station 20; length up to 25 mm. The anterior end is truncate, has a midventral cleft but has no cephalic bran- chiae (Fig. ). There are two brownish eyes located on either side of the head. Paired bands of brown pigment are present dorsal to the eyes (Fig. lb). Occasionally some weakly developed pigment bands may occur ventral to the eyes. All pigment bands may be absent. The head is compressed when the animal is preserved within its tube. If preserved out of the tube, the head is slightly inflated. The first three segments have notopodial fasci- cles only; from the fourth, parapodia are biramous with pointed setae in the notopodia and long handled uncini in the neuropodia. Notosetae are long and spinous (Fig. lc). Uncini are bifid with the two nearly equal curved teeth, one set slightly higher than the second (Fig. ld,e). The uncini are small, numerous, ar- ranged in transverse rows and are present in.
