General Catalogue of South African Crustacea. 303 



ERIPHIA SMITHII, M c Leay. 

 1838. Eripliia smitliii, MLeay, Annulosa of S. Africa, p. 60, with 



E. ford ii, MLeay, ibid. 

 1843. E. s., Krauss, Siidafrik. Crust., p. 36, pi. 2, fig. 3, a-e. 



" On the Natal coast and especially at Natal Point, where 



they keep in holes and crannies of the rocks, but often their 



holes are so small that they have only just room in them, and 



not enough for turning round." 



1898. E. Icevimana, var. Smiihil, Alcock, J. A. S. B., vol. Ixvii., 



p. 216. 

 1907. E. I., var. Smitlii, Nobili, Ann. Sci. Nat., Ser. 9, vol. iv., 



p. 291. 

 1907. Eripliia sebana smitliii, Eathbun, Smithson. Misc. Coll., vol. 



xlix., p. 72 footnote, correction of E. smilliii, Stimpson. 

 Miss Eathbun, ibid., gives Eriphia sebana (Shaw) as correc- 

 tion of Eripliia levimana, Latreille, so named by Stimpson, 

 though his references show that the name E. lavimana should 

 be attributed to Guerin, not Latreille. 



ERIPHIA SCABRICULA, Dana. 



1843. Eripliia gonagra, Krauss, Siidafrik. Crust., p. 36. 



" In the rock crannies at the mouth of the Unilaas Eiver in 

 Natal." 



The specific name used by Krauss, though earlier than 



Dana's, is rejected, because the species is not, as Krauss 



supposed, identical with that so named by Milne-Edwards, 



and founded on the Cancer gonagra of Fabricius. 



1852. E. scabricida, Dana, U.S. Expl. Exp., vol. xiii., p. 247, pi. 14, 



figs. 5, a, b. 

 1898. E. scabricida, Alcock, J. A. S. B., vol. Ixvii., p. 216. 



GEN. TEAPEZIA, Latreille. 



1825. Trapezia, Latreille, Encycl. Meth., vol. 10, p. 695. 



Only the French form, Trapezie, of this name is given by 

 Latreille in his Fam. Nat. du Eegne Animal, p. 269, 1825. 

 1838. Grapsillus, M c Leay, Annulosa of S. Africa, p. 67. 

 1843. Trapezia, Krauss, Siidafrik. Crust., p. 35. 

 1897. Grapsillus, Eathbun, Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, vol. xi., 



p. 165. 



The preference is given to M c Leay's generic name on 

 the ground that Trapezia was preoccupied by Trapezium,
