genus near Kroycria (according to Prof. Charles B. Wilson) 

 which I will call throughout this paper the dichelestid. The 

 eggs of Pandarns simtatus are the most difficult to handle, being 

 very flat and thin and pigmented, but I used them because this 

 is the most common species at Woods Hole. I used the eggs 

 of the following for comparison (arranged according to the classi- 

 fication of Claus) : 

 Caligidae : 



Caligns bonito Wilson (and several undetermined species of 



C aligns). 



Caligns rapax Milne Edwards. 

 Lepioptlierins edivardsi Wilson. 

 Perissopns coimnnnis Rathbun. 

 Nesippns alatns Wilson. 

 Cccrops lair cillii Leach. 

 Lcemargus T muricatus Kroyer (and an undetermined species 



of Lcemargus). 



Philorthagoriscus scrratus Kroyer. 

 Pandarns simtatus Verrill. 

 Dichelesthiidae : 



Anthosoma crassnm Abilguard. 

 Kroycria ? 



Eudactylina nigra Wilson and E. sp.? 

 Lernaeidae : 



Penella. 



Chondracanthidae : 

 Chondr acanthus. 

 Sphyrion ? 



For the determination of species I am indebted to Prof. Charles 

 Branch Wilson, of Massachusetts State Normal School, West- 

 field, Mass., who has been very kind in his interest in my work. 

 After my work was nearly finished I received the material col- 

 lected at Woods Hole in 1899 by Prof. Edw. Rynearson, of 

 Pittsburgh, with a view of working on this same subject, and 

 which he kindly turned over to me. I wish to express my thanks 

 for this abundance of material, which allowed me to confirm 



'The word Liemargus was applied to a copepod and a shark in the year 1837 

 and as yet it is disputed which should claim priority.
