Abstract
IN revising my material and records of the Lumbriculidæ I find that two new species may now be placed on our list of indigenous annelids. These are Rhynchelmis limosella, Hoffm., and Stylodrilus heringianus, Clap. Respecting the former Beddard wrote in his “Monograph of the Order Oligochæta” (1895, pp. 215–16): “I have seen a specimen from some part of England, but cannot give any details. There is every probability that it is a native of this country.” It reached me some time ago from Ring-wood, Hants.
