M'Intosh, , , [Plate VI,] Peofessor Saes seems to have been amongst the first to notice the young oi Phyllodoce^^ although he was unaware of the group of Annelids to which his young forms belonged. At the end of his paper on the development of Polynoe cir- rata, Linn. [Harmothoe imhricata), he mentions that he had also found, off the Norwegian coast, in February and March, globules composed of irregularly rolled mucous ribands, which adhered to Zostera marina and Fucus vesiculosus at the depth of some feet. These mucous masses with their grass-green ova in all probability refer to the species hereafter to be de- scribed. He observed that the young, on their exit from the egg, had a centi-al circlet of cilia and two kidney-shaped eyes of a bright-red colour. He does not mention a mouth, but states that the anus is at the posterior end of the body, and more visible than in the young of Polynoe.
