Pages 10 & 12. Cuma seorpioides and C. Edwardsii. 



Remarks. There seems to be some diversity of opinion about the 



naming of these 2 Norwegian species of Cuma. Thus in his "History of Cru- 

 stacea" (International Scientific Series) the Rev. Mr. Stebbing records ' Cuma 

 Edwardsii Goodsir as a synonym of Cuma seorpioides (Montagu). If this is 

 really correct a question which only can be settled by a re-examination of 

 the original specimen described by Montagu the species recorded in the present 

 account as Cuma seorpioides must have another specific name, and as Bodotria 

 arenosa Goodsir is unquestionably the male of this species, it ought to be named 

 Cuma arenosa, while the specific name proposed by Montagu must be trans- 

 ferred to the 2nd Norwegian species, the one here recorded as Cuma Edward*// 

 Goodsir. 



Occurrence. I found both these species last summer off the Jsederen 

 coast, the one, Cuma arenosa, rather abundantly off Egersund in a depth of from 

 15 to 20 fathoms, coarse sandy bottom; of the other, Cuma seorpioides, only 2 

 specimens, male and female, were found at Sirevaag, somewhat farther north. 

 These 2 specimens, unlike those previously observed, were of a dark reddish brown 

 colour. J )

Remarks. I have been informed by the Rev. Mr. Stebbing. that the 



name of this species ought to be spelt as above, since no adjective ,,nasicus" 

 exists in the Latin language. (Cf. Scipio Nasica).

Distribution. - Firth of Forth, Aberdeen Bay, Firth of Clyde (Th. Scott). 



The latter species has also been observed by Dr. Hoek off the Dutch coast.
