None. Begins: "The leech here described was found together with its egg-capsules on a small shell washed-up on the beach at Sandy Bay, Hobart, 28th October, 1940. There are very few records of marine leeches having been found in association with their egg-capsules, and it seems desirable, therefore, that some account of the present specimens should be published. The leech is a new species belonging to the genus Pontobdella. The name Pontobdella verrucosa is suggested. "
