They reach to the anterior border of the 2nd chaetiger. The median tentacle is a little shorter. The stout tentacular cirri are inserted on the anterior border of the ist segment. The first three pairs of feet are much enlarged and carried forward beneath the body. In addition to a stout dorsal cirrus and a small conical ventral cirrus, there are a small papilla on the inner and anterior face of the chaetal lobe and two papillae, a ventral and a dorsal, at the apex of the chaetal lobe. Behind the first three modified chaetigers the feet are of the usual onuphid shape (Fig. 46, a). The dorsal cirrus is rather short and thick, just surpassing the end of the chaetal lobe. The ventral cirrus is a rounded lobe and it is transformed into a pad by the 6th chaetiger. The cirriform prolongation
