11. Contributions to the Crustacean Fauna of South Africa. 

 By K. H. BARNARD, M.A., Assistant. 



(Plates XVII.-XXIV.) 



NOTE. 



In deference to Mr. Stebbing, I make the following alterations 

 in the gender of the specific names so as to bring them into 

 conformity with the names on the plates : 



p. 201, for Gnathia africana, n.sp-., read Gnathia africanus, n.sp. 

 p. 203, for Idotea metallica, Bosc., read Idotea metallicus, Bosc. 

 p. 204, for Engidotea lobata (Miers) read Engidotea lobatus 

 (Miers). 



Where the gender of the generic name is doubtful, the uniform 

 plan of making the specific name masculine is advantageous, 

 but I do not bind myself to extend the principle to all specific 

 names, whether the gender of the genus is doubtful or not ; 

 unless of course the principle be adopted generally by scientists 

 in all branches of zoology. 



I wish to express my thanks to Mr. Stebbing for kindly 

 passing the plates through the press.
