Pages 205-212 relate especially to the fresh-water Amphipoda observed on this journey. First 

 Sars discusses Pontoporeia femorata, Kr0yer, Var., to which he strongly inclines to make 

 Pontoporeia affinis, Lindstrom, a synonym. Secondly, he gives a full description of a 

 species under the following heading, " Gammarus I'ulex De Geer, an a specie vulgo hoc 

 nomine descripta diversus ? " As to its habitat he says, " har jeg altid kun truifet vor 

 Gammarus in st0rre stillestaaende Vande, aldrig i Elve." If it should prove a distinct 

 species, he proposes to name it in correspondence with its habitat Gammarus lacustris, a 

 name which he afterwards changed to Gammarus negledus. Thirdly, he describes 

 " Gammarus canceUoules Gerstfeldt, Var. (?)." This form, he says, had been already 

 described by A. Boeck as a new species, under the name Gammarus qvadrispinosus. It is 

 rather in deference to Loven's opinion, than upon his own judgment, that he hesitates to 

 accept Boeck's view.

Synopsis of the Marine Invertebrata collected by the late Arctic Expedition 

 under Dr. J. J. Hayes. From Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of 

 Philadelphia, May, 1863. 



The Amphipods recorded are Anmii/x ampulla, Kr0yer, which is a synonym to Anonijx miga.i; 

 Phipps ; Pherusa trimspis, n. s., which is identified by Boeck with AmphUhoii fulvocinrta, 

 M. Sars, 1858, under the name Halirages fulvocinctus ; Gammarus locusta, J. C. Fabr. 

 and Tliemisto arctica, Kr0yer ? Gammarus pulex, Stimpson, from Grand Manan, is here 

 placed as a synonym to Gammarus locusta, Fabr.

A new species " Mm-a fusca," is thus described : — "The body is long and slender; the superior 

 antennae are about half the length of the animal, the peduncle being scarcely longer than
