Specimen AMNZ 5039 has the following labels in its jar: &quot;Auckland Museum Coll No. 13 Wet Greywacke gravel. Tasman Stm. Great Island. Three Kings 31.xii.52 J.S. Edwards&quot;; &quot;HOLOTYPE Megascolides tasmani Lee Tasman Stm, Great Is. Col. J.S. Edwards 30/12/52 1021. 3KI3&quot; [note slightly different dates], a further label is blank. Somewhere are two other non-type specimens from the same locality according to

The type specimen is dark and brittle, shrunken to 53 mm long. Lee has 67.5 mm with 132 segments but it is a posterior amputee so must naturally be greater (there is also a slight possibility it acquires more setae posteriorly). Dorsal pores, not noted by Lee, are present from 10/11, at least. It appears lumbricine with widely spread setae that converge slightly towards male pores. Lee has overlooked the penial setae which are protruding (due to shrinkage?) from each of the male pores on 18. In 17 in ab lines is a reddish patch that may be a residual genital artefact. The female and spermathecal pores are no longer obvious. Vascularization is mostly as described by Lee, i.e., commissurals are in 6-9, hearts are in 10-12 from dorsal blood vessel that loops between septa in 11, 12, (not 13) 14, 15 and 16 thereafter single (

: fig. 327 shows only in 14 and 15). Gizzard appears in 6 rather than 5 but being overlain by tufted pharyngeal glands it is difficult to discern. Seminal vesicles are in 9 and 12 as described. Prostates differ significantly as they are flattened tubuloracemose structures, rather than &quot;tubular, convoluted&quot; as Lee has them; the duct is not traceable in the

specimen and, moreover, there is a bundle of long reddish penial setae more ventrally. An excised spermatheca is in a separate vial in the jar and, apart from being desiccated, complies with

(1959) account and figure. The wide intestine contains organic matter and is full of coarse grits of various minerals.
