 Campylaspis glabra, G. O. Sars. Middelhavets Cumaceer, p. 129, PI. 44 47. 



Specific. Characters. Female. Very like the type species, but of conside- 

 rably smaller size, and comparatively less robust in form. Carapace very large 

 and boldly vaulted above, surface perfectly smooth throughout, frontal part as in 

 C. rubicunda. The first 2 pedigerous segments less strongly produced dorsally. 

 Tail more slender, with the segments nearly cylindric in form. Maxillae exactly 

 as in C. rubicunda. Terminal joint of 1st pair of maxillipeds still more rudi- 

 mentary than in that species. Third pair of maxillipeds with the meral joint 

 large and expanded. Second pair of legs with the terminal joint shorter than 

 the 2 preceding ones combined. Uropoda rather slender, with the stem com- 

 paratively narrow, and scarcely at all serrate inside, inner ramus somewhat 

 exceeding half the length of the stem, and armed with about 8 unusually slender 

 spinules. Colour whitish. Length scarcely exceeding 3 mm. 



Adult male more slender than the female, with the carapace far less 

 vaulted above. Limbs transformed in the usual manner. Length nearly 4 mm. 



Remarks. On going through my material of C. rubicunda from the Nor- 

 wegian coast, I have recently found some specimens of a form, which had previ- 

 ously escaped my attention, and which I am unable to distinguish from the 

 Mediterranean species described in the above-mentioned paper. It is very closely 

 allied to C. rubicunda, but on a closer examination is easily distinguished by 

 its much smaller size and less robust form of body, as also by the different colour. 



Occurrence. As the specimens were found mingled together with C. 

 rubicunda from different localities, it is impossible for me at present to state 

 with certainty from which locality they were derived. I believe, however, that 

 at least some of the specimens were collected in the Trondhjem Fjord. 



Distribution. Mediterranean at Messina and Spezia (the present author).

Specific Characters. Female. Form of body resembling that in the type 

 species, though somewhat less robust. Carapace very large and boldly arched 

 above, dorsal face somewhat uneven in front, lateral faces with a very conspi-
