Ann. and Mag. of Nat Hist serial 3, 17: 388-389.

Abstract / Notes

The list includes Leptoplana auricularis, Leptoplana flexilis, Eurylepta cornuta and Convoluta
paradoxa.____"LANKESTER gives a list of the Turbellaria and Annelida met with by him in a dredging expedition
off Guernsey and the neighbouring islands. Ann. _ Mag. Nat. Hist. vol. xvii. 1866, p. 389. .LANKESTER (l. c.)
describes the following new species:- Harmothoe sarniensis, p. 374, under stones near low-water mark, Guernsey
and Herm; H. malmgreni, p. 375, in the tubes of Chaetopterus insignis, Herm. Antinoe nobilis, p. 375, found
either close to or in the tubes of Terebella nebulosa, on which it apparently feeds (_). A. zetlandica, p.
377, dredged in Shetland. Halosydna (Alentia) jeffreysii, p. 377, Herm. This is apparently the same as
Lepidonotus imbricatus of the British Museum Catalogue. The Aphrodita imbricate, Linn., is by Malmgren
regarded as identical with L. cirratus, Johns, and Aud. _ Milne-Ed.; therefore Lankester changes the name to
jefflreysii. This species is probably A. gelatinosa, Sars."
