There are ten pairs, four preanal (fig. 2, I-IV) and six postanal (fig. 2, 1-6). The fourth preanal pair {IV) and the fifth postanal (5), counting from the tail- tip, are laterally placed.

The second postanal pair (2) are actually dorsal in position. The body of the female narrows suddenly at the base of the tail. The anus opens in a transverse fold of the cuticle, which is followed by several wrinkles. The tail tapers to a Fig. C'rossocephalus longicaudatus. Lateral view of the tail of the male, highly magnified. S., spicules; 1-6, postanal papillae ; I-IV, preanal papillae. fine point, and is 1*7 mm. to 1'9 mm. long. The position of the vulva has not been made out with certainty, but it is probably very close to the anus. The uterus contains embryos in various stages of development, not always enclosed in an egg-membrane, and often of very large size, so that the species is evidently viviparous, like the type-species. The chief points in which this species differs from C. vioi-.
