The Annals and magazine of natural history; zoology, botany, and geology. 156 Prof. Mcintosh's Notes from the The head is typical, with five moderately elongated ten- tacles and an eye of considerable size in the normal position on each side. The palpi are soldered, with the exception of a median notch in front and a deep furrow inferiorly. The first segment is about once and a half the breadth of the average anterior segment. Proboscis.—The maxillse (woodcut, fig. 6) from above Fig. Dental apparatus of Eunice ? Enlarged. present a moderate curvature, whilst in lateral view only a slight sinuosity occurs, the tips, however, rising clearly above the horizontal. The right great dental plate has ten teeth, the left eleven, but three of these were on a depressed region, probably indicating fracture and renewal. The azygos plate (left) has ten teeth. The left anterior curved plate had seven teeth, the right nine or ten teeth. The single accessory plate (anteriorly and externally) had one denticle. A marked shoulder separated the maxillse from the posterior processes, which were spathulate in outline. The mandibles have large foliate dentary processes, with two or three small denticles on the oblique anterior edge. The shafts or roots are pale dorsallv, with wavy lines as in sections of wood, whilst ven- trally they are marked by a broad dark brown band. The colour of the apparatus is choeolate-brown with lighter parts here and 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 London, Taylor and Francis, Ltd
