Of V. 2*losns Goodrich says (2, p. 261), "The sperma- tozoa are shed at an early stage of development into segment 10, and the anterior septum of this segment soon bulges out, forming a sac—the anterior sperm-sac. Later on this sperm-sac pushes its way across segment 9, through its anterior septum into seg- ment 8. The hinder wall of segment 10 also bulges out, forming the posterior ; In the new species before us these two sacs have become one and continuous. The walls of the sperm-sac are exactly like those of the ovisac to be presently described, and arc covered with peritoneal cells onAboth surfaces. The hinder end of the sperm- sac projects into the cavity of the ovisac. 8. Ovary.—One pair attached to the anterior septum of segments X and almost reaching the pos- J). V.
