[None. Begins as follows:]
During the course of surveying Eniwetok Atoll, Marshall Islands, for polychaetous annelids in the summers of 1957 and 1958, the author encountered from three localities four specimens of a new species of polychaete belonging to the nereid genus Micronereis Claparède. Transects were made of both the ocean and lagoon sides of the islands shown in the map of Eniwetok Atoll (Fig. 1). One of the collecting methods employed was to preserve algae, coral, rocks, sand, etc., in formalin in the field and to sort out the polychaetes in the laboratory. The new species of Micronereis was collected this manner.
