Fig. 2 . ) (Pellet-type IA-3).
150. Ruetu (Raetellops) rostrnlis (Reeve) (Fig. 1 1 ~ )
Pellets are ellipsoidal with rounded ends. They are impressed by
four or five slight transverse constrictions at regular intervals. They
are very fine in texture, homogeneous in consistency and greyish-brown
in colour. Length/breadth ratio is 2-58 (Pellet-type 1-2).
Locality : Kaneda Bay (50 m in depth), Japan.
