The cover caption for the October issue of Journal of Morphology (Volume 246, Number 1) incorrectly listed the size of the cover specimen, Limnognathia maerski , as 128 cm in length. This is incorrect. The correct length is 128 μm. The correct cover caption is: The type species, Limnognathia maerski nov. gen. et sp. of a new group of animals, Micrognathozoa, from Greenland was photographed using differential interference contract microscopy, Nomarski technique. Anterior of the specimen is at the top of the figure. Different internal structures such as the pharyngeal apparatus with jaws and the ovaria with eggs are seen in three dimensions. The long, stiff sensoria are best seen when the animal is living as here in this photomicrograph. This specimen is only 128 μm in length. The color in this image is not the true color of the transparent animal but is a reflection of the Nomarski technique. Photomicrograph by Reinhardt M. Kristensen. See R. M. Kristensen and P. Funch, page 1. The Editor regrets this error.
