Cephalothrix armata Ulyanin, 1870

Remarks. Body 25 cm in length, 1.5 mm in width, from the Bay of Sevastopol, Black Sea. Ulyanin (1870: 52) described that the worm was dorsally bright green and the proboscis armature consisted of a curved central stylet. It is undoubtedly a monostiliferous hoplonemertean, possibly Emplectonema gracile ( Johnston, 1837) or its relative (A.V. Chernyshev, Institute of Marine Biology, Vladivostok, pers. comm.).
