Holotype, AHF POLY 1217, Euinida uschakovi. a. anterior setigers, dorsal view, x27; b. right parapodium, setiger 10, anterior view, x70; c. same, setiger 75, anterior view, x70; d. left parapodium, setiger 125, x70; e. composite spiniger, x340. Dorsal cirri 2-3 times longer than wide; broadly lance-shaped, distally blunt in anterior, medial setigers; becoming narrow, distally pointed in posterior setigers (Fig. lb-d). Dorsal cirri of anterior, posterior setigers oval in cross section; those of medial setigers flattened. Ventral cirri distally rounded, projecting beyond parapodial lobes only of anterior, posterior setigers. Parapodial lobes distally notched, with aciculum penetrating notch in anterior setigers (Fig. lb-d). All setae as composite spinigers with spinous distal shafts and short appendages (Fig. le). Appendages obliquely sculptured, with a row of denticles on cutting edge becoming indistinct distally; number of setae gradually decreasing from 16 in setiger 10; 13 in setiger 75; 10-11 in setiger 125. Pygidium with 1 pair of stout, distally blunt anal cirri equalling length of last 5-6 prepygidial setigers. Discussion.—Eumida uschakovi is similar to E. fusigera (Malmgren) sensu Uschakov (1972), E. parva St. Joseph and E. granulosa (Verrill) in having dorsal cirri at least 2 times longer than wide. E. uschakovi differs from these species in having inflated, instead of flattened dorsal cirri; in having the median antenna inserted on the anterior prostomium, instead of between the eyes; and in lacking both prolonged superior parapodial processes and pointed ventral cirri. This species is named in honor of Prof. P. V. Uschakov in recognition of his mono- graphic study of phyllodociform Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and a
