These animals have a soft body, protected by a multivalve shell. They are without eyes, or any distinct head; have no powers Of locomo tion, but are fixed to various substances. Their body, which has no articulations, is enveloped in a kind of mantle, and has numerous tenta cular arms, consisting of many joints, fringed on each side, and issuing by pairs from jointed pedicles: their mouth is armed with transverse toothed jaws in pairs, which, like the mandibles of the Crustaceans, are furnished with a feeler; they have a knotty longitudinal Spinal Chord.
