PALINURID.E. 



description from a fine male specimen of the latter size, 

 which weighs about five pounds ; and I cannot but think 

 that Dr. Milne-Edwards is greatly mistaken in attributing 

 to individuals of that size a weight of from twelve to 

 fifteen pounds. 



The vignette is from a sketch by Mr. Coke Smith, and 

 represents St. Michael's Mount.
