The prostomium (Fig. 18) is very broad and divided by a median groove. The peaks are not clearly defined. The eyes are very small and some- times invisible. The median tentaculophore is very large, and all three tentaculophores are reddish brown. The elytra have small tubercles and slender clavate papillae. The dorsal chaetae are lightly pectinated, and the ventral are long, slender, unidentate and end in a hirsute tip. I have already elsew^here (Monro, 1929, p. 162) given reasons for my opinion that Aiistrolaenilla qx should be regarded as a synonym of Antinoe, Kinberg, pj^ ^g. Aminoe antarctka.

One specimen. Description. One specimen, incomplete posteriorly. There are 28 chaetigers and 14 pairs of elytrophores; the measurement is 29 mm. by 3 mm. w^ithout the feet. The prostomium (Fig. 19, a) is broader than long and deeply incised in front. There are two pairs of eyes of which the anterior is on the front apexes and the posterior at the hinder corners of the head. There are no peaks, their place being taken by the anterior eyes. The median tentacle has a very large tentaculophore set between the anterior eyes, and a long style about three times
