Abstract
On a recent occasion, looking into a small shallow pool near Lahore, I saw here and there on its bottom a reddish appearance, which a closer examination showed to be due to innumerable worms, implanted by one extremity in the mud, and waving their free ends in the water. These were the Limnodrilus described below. A quantity of the mud taken for further examination yielded, though in very much smaller numbers, three other Oligochætes, viz. Branchiura sowerbyi, Lahoria hortensis, and a species of Dero.Keywords
