Extract

A small orange-coloured Enchytraeid Oligochaete has been known for some years to occur fairly abundantly in certain sheltered parts of the shore on the Cumbraes. It is also generally present, though scarce, on exposed parts of the shore. Hitherto it has been confounded with other species of Lumbricillus, but is now described as a new species.
