According to Dr. von Martens, in the Zool. Record for 1870, he gives a list of Crustacea 

 observed hitherto on the coast of East Friesland (between the mouths of the rivers Ems and 

 Jahde), containing nineteen Amphipoda, including two Lsemodipoda. He describes 

 " Orchestia, sp., from the strand of East Friesland, allied to A. [O.] mediterranea, and 

 supposed to be perhaps a second male form of 0. littorea, Leach." " Bathyporeia, sp., 

 dredged and found in the stomach of haddocks," is shortly indicated ; so also, " Podocerua, 

 sp., frequent between Sertularije in the Estuaries." The number was not obtainable at the 

 British Museum Library.
