In the course of the determination of annelids for the United States National Museum, three very interesting new species have come to hand. The first was collected by Dr. A. S. Pearse in Japan; the other two were obtained at Grande Isle, La., by William V. Anderson during a course in marine biology given at that place by Dr. Ellinor H. Behre, of the University of Louisiana, to whom we are indebted for the material.
