They are simple strap-like structures, arching over the back. The gill-bearing region of the body is flattened dorsally and rounded ventrally and the limits of the segments are clearly marked. Behind this region the body is cylindrical and the limits of the segments are almost impossible to distinguish. From the distance apart of the chaetal bundles it can be seen that the segments are about twice as long as in the anterior region. The posterior region of the body looks much more like a fragment of some microdrilid Oligochaete, such as Nais, than part of a 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 Institute of Oceanographic Sciences (Great Britain); National Institute of Oceanography; Great Britain.
