REPORT ON THE AMPHIPODA. 391 



He next mentions "Sp. 50.) Caprella Fabris, Nardo. Cancer linearis, L,, varietas. Chier., sp. 

 61, fig. 81-82. Caprellae nova S2xcies1 Nardo ; Sinon. mod. citata." The specific name, he 

 says, was omitted in the " sinonimia " by a typographical error. He finds it very near to, if 

 not the same as, Caprella armafa, Heller, Both are by Mayer made synonyms of Caprella 

 acanthifcra, Leach. It is figured on pi. xv. figs. 5, 5a, the magnified figure leaving no 

 doubt of its identity. 



The last species is " Sp. 51.) Caprella Cornalia, Navdo," not derived from Chiereghini's work. 

 Nardo recognises its likeness to Caprella acutifrons, Heller [Latreille], with which the 

 description and figure, pi. xv. fig. 6, justify Mayer in identifying it beyond doubt.

Notes of a "Week's Dredging iu tlie West of Ireland. By George Stewardson 

 Brady, C.M.Z.S., and David Robertson. The Annals and Magazine of Natural 

 History. May, 1869. Ser. 4. Vol. III. London, 1869. pp. 353-373. Pis. 

 21, 22. (The Amphipoda and Isopoda by the Eev. A. M. Norman.) 



Numerous species of Amphipoda are recorded, with occasional notes on the nomenclature. The 

 genus Exmiguia is thus defined : — " Antennas short and strong ; flagella rudimentary, upper 

 pair without a secondary appendage. Body wide ; coxae shallow. First gnathopods long, 

 slender, filiform ; dactylos obsolete. Second gnathopods subchelate, slender, but yet 

 much stouter than the very delicate first pair. Pereiopods rather short, subequal ; pro- 

 podos longer than carpus. Uropods all two-branched ; branches short, simple. Telson 

 squamiform. 



" This genus seems to be most nearly allied to Cratippus, from which it is distinguished by the 

 remarkable character of the first gnathopods." The type species, Exunejuia sfilipes, is also 

 fully described, and partly figured, pi. xxii. figs. 7-12. 



The genus is, like Cratippus, Sp. Bate, a synonym of Colomastix, Grube, 1861. The species is 

 no doubt the same as Cratippus tenuip)es, and probably also the same as Colomastix pusilla, 

 Grube.

 species of Crangon, Mysis, Gammarus, and Corophium longicorne (Fabr.) at about 40 feet."
