This species measures between 8 mm. long for fourteen pairs of parapodia and 50 mm. for twenty-four pairs^. The antennae are long and thin. liG. 6. Tomopteris pacifica : specimen from Stn. 46B of the Trans-Pacific Expedition, the first pair of chaetigers has been lost. and carry a central indentation. There is a pair of black eye spots on the pro- stomium. The first pair of chaetigers is normally present but may be broken off; the stumps, however, are always visible on the ventral surface, just beside the inner edge of the nuchal lobes. The second pair of chaetigers reaches to about two- thirds of the body length. Rosette glands appear on aU parapodia ; on the first two they are within the parapodial trunk thereafter on the pinnules immediately ventral to the ramus in the notopodium and dorsal in the neuropodium. Chromophil * One very poorly preserved specimen from Northern Holiday Expedition Station 23, which could be T, pacifica measures 135 mm. in length. This identification, however, cannot be confirmed and has neither been plotted on a chart nor recorded in the appendices of this report..
