 Fam. CERVINIID^;. 



Genus Pseudozosime, new genus. 



Generic characters : Female. In the female the body is tolerably robust, and has 

 a general resemblance to Zosime, Boeck, except that the abdomen is not so clearly 

 denned from the cephalothorax ; genital segment moderately large, with a distinct 

 transverse suture. Anterior antennae (antennules) short, stout, and composed of about 

 five joints. Second antennae and mouth organs nearly as in Zosime. The inner ramus 

 of all the four pairs of swimming legs is composed of two joints, and the outer of three 

 joints. The fifth pair are of moderate size ; the inner portion of the basal joint is 

 somewhat expanded, while the second joint is comparatively small. 



Remarks. Pseudozosime differs from the other genera nearly related to it by 

 having the inner ramus of all the four pairs of thoracic legs biarticulated, and by the 

 fifth pair being comparatively larger and more compact. 



Pseudozosime browni, new species. (PI. VIII. figs. 9-19.) 



Female. The body of the female tolerably stout, narrow, and elongated, bluntly 

 rounded anteriorly, and tapering slightly towards the posterior end ; rostrum prominent. 

 Length of the specimen represented by the drawing 0'95 mm. 



Antennules short, stout, composed of about five joints, and densely setiferous. 

 Antenna? with the outer ramus triarticulated, and otherwise nearly as in Zosime typica, 

 Boeck. Mouth organs also somewhat similar to those in that species. 



The first four pairs of thoracic legs are moderately stout, and the inner ramus is 

 composed of two and the outer of three joints. In the first pair the inner ramus reaches 

 to the end of the three-jointed outer one, and the joints are nearly of equal length ; the
