EURYCARCINUS NATALENSIS (Krauss). 



1843. Galena natalensis, ~K.va.uss, Siidafrik. Crust., p. 31, pi. 1, tig. 4. 

 " Under stones and in holes of the rocks at the mouth of 

 the Umlaas Eiver in Natal." 



Under Pscudozins, Dana, Miers, Challenger Brachyura, p. 141, 

 expresses the opinion that that genus is very nearly allied to 

 Menippe, de Haan, and on the following page says : " Eurycarcinus, 

 A. Milne-Edwards, is also very nearly allied to this genus, and 

 should, perhaps, not be separated from it." The typical species, 

 Eurycarcinus grandidieri, from Zanzibar, is, he thinks, identical 

 with Galene natalensis, Krauss. The latter view is endorsed by 

 Ortmann, 1893, Zool. Jahrb., vol. vii., p. 434, and by Nobili, 1907, 

 Ann. Sci. Nat., Ser. 9, vol. iv., p. 289. But Alcock, 1898, J. A. S. B., 

 vol. Ixvii., p. 211, describes E. grandidieri, without taking notice of 

 E. natalensis.
