This paper deals with the families Syllidae Eusyllidae and Autolytidae of the section Syllidea (Polychaeta Phanerocephala), and is to some extent a continuation of one on the Exogonea recently published. Unlike the latter, however, it is entirely systematic and descriptive, structural and developmental points being reserved for separate treatment. The material consists almost exclusively of specimens collected by the author about low-water mark in Port Jackson and examined in the living condition in the first instance. The types of the species described as new have been deposited in the Australian Museum.
