Cirri XLV, 34-40, arranged in slightly irregular closely placed columns, three to each radius, two to four cirri in each column. The peripheral cirri appear to be slightly longer than the more apical, about 12 mm. long. The first, second and third segments are about twice as wide as long (Fig. 7 a). The third segment is wider distally than proximally, the greater width being on the dorsal side, and it is waisted, more strongly on the dorsal than the ventral side. The fourth and fifth segments are of similar shapes but the fourth is more than half as long as wide and 5-2
