Extract

Of the seven British species of Eurydice two are intertidal, three range successively from the immediate sublittoral to the edge of the continental shelf, and two predominate at the edge of and beyond the shelf. Most species have been recorded from the benthos and from surface plankton. E. affinis is recorded for the first time in Britain, among E. pulchra in intertidal sand in the Bristol Channel.
