the Mediten-anean, as Batluj]}oreia poniica ; there are several nest-builders, as species of 

 Podocerus, Gerapus and Siphonceeetes. The resemblance of its Crustacean fauna to that 

 of the northern seas is illustrated by the presence, among others, of species of Bathyporeia, 

 Podocerus and SipJionoecetes.

 1862-4. Edited by George S. Brady. Report on the Crustacea, by the Rev.

The new genus Clieirocratus, assigned to Fam. Gammaeid.*, Norman. (Subfam. Gammarides 

 B. & W.) is thus defined : — " Superior antennae shorter than inferior, having a secondary 

 appendage. First gnathopods not subchelate. Second gnathopods subchelate, very large. 

 Telson double. Last pair of pereiopods very long." The type species, Clieirocratus 

 mantis, here fully described as new, is identified by Boeck with Gammarus assimilis, 

 Lilljeborg, 1851. 



In the family Corophiidae, Bate and Westwood, the genus Unciola, Say, is described as having 

 the "last uropods double-branched," which is not in accordance with Say's own account. 

 In the description of the new species, Unciola pJanipes, we also read, " uropods of last pair 

 two-branched, small, scarcely reaching beyond telson, or the basal joint of preceding pair ; 

 outer branch tipped with long simple hairs ; inner branch terminating in a single spine." 

 The figure (G. S. Brady del.) gives only a single branch, and a prolongation of the peduncle 

 tipped with a spine. Boeck gives the species as a synonym ? of his Glauconome Jcr^yeri, 

 1870. The Museum Normanianum, 1886, gives "Unciola planipes, Norman, = Unciola 

 leucopis, B. & W. (non Kroyer)."

Eight Amphipods are added to the British Fauna. Among these are the new species 

 Anonyx melanopliilialmus, the new genus, Euonyx, " differing from Anonyx in having the 

 first gnathopods chelate, and the second stronger than the first, subchelate, nail large and 

 strong. Posterior uropods two-branched. Telson cleft," with its new species Euonyx 

 chelatus, "dredged parasitic on Echinus esculentus, L."; and the new genus Microp)roto2rds, 

 "allied to Microdeuteropus" hut with differences shown in the italicized part of the following 

 definition : — " Antennae with secondary appendage. First gnathopods subchelate. Second 

 gnathopiods larger than first, subchelate, greatly developed in $ , much smaller in f . 

 Uropods terminating in simple spines, those of last pair with a single ramus. Telson 

 tubular." The new species for which this genus was formed is named Microprotopus 

 inaculatus.
