and exhibiting within the mesosome a remarkable globular dilatation of the 

 intestine. Length of the specimen examined but little exceeding 3 mm. 



Remarks. - The above described remarkable Lysianassid may at once 

 be recognized by its short and compact body and the poor development of 

 the posterior divisions, somewhat reminding in this respect of certain species 

 of the genus Metopa. The strongly chelate anterior gnathopoda and the 

 peculiar, coarse serration of the basal joints of the 3 posterior pairs of pereio- 

 poda afford another very conspicuous characteristic. 



Occurrence. Only a single specimen of this interesting form was 

 found in the Trondhjemsfjord, at Redbjerget, at a depth of (3080 fathoms.

This form was collected last summer rather abundantly in the Chris- 

 tianiafjord, at Laurkullen, Moss and Sandesund, on sandy bottom, near the 

 shore. The female is very like that of B. pdagica and B. pilosa, but is at once 

 recognizable by its dark pigmented eyes.

I found this species during the past summer in great abundance at 

 Fredriksvtern, outside the Christianiafjord, at a depth of from 1 to 3 fathoms on a 

 bottom of fine sand. The body is pellucid, with a more or less distinct orange 

 tinge, the ovaries, as also the ova in the marsupial pouch, being of a dark 

 bluish violet colour. The pigmentation of the eyes is of a dark red colour.
