The Salpse are, he says, extremely abundant in some years, and then may not reappear during 

 several springs. They were found in long chains in 1SG9, wiih Salpa maxima predominant, 

 which he never took without finding upon it the parasitic Amphipods which he here describes. 

 The first is Vihilia jeanyeranlii, Lucas, 1849, of which he considers Vihilia speciusa, 

 Costa, 1853, and Vibilia inediterranea, Claus, GrundzUge der Zoologie, 2d Ed., to be in all 

 probability synonyms. In describing the maxillipeds, " la Icvre inferieure, constituee par la 

 K^union des deux^ siagonopodes de la troisieme paire, appeles souvent pattes-machoires," he 

 remarks, "il est trfes-important de constater que cette Ifevresternale est totalement d^pourvue 

 d'appendices palpiformes, tandis que M. Milne Edwards decrit et figure chez le Vihilia 

 Peronii deux petites tiges rudimentaires representant ces organes developpes dans les 

 Gammarines." Secondly, Lycxa pidex, n. s., is figured and very fully described. It is 

 compared with Lijcxa ochracea, Dana. G. O. Sars in 1882 considers that it comes very 

 near the northern species Lycxa (Trypihana) vralmii, Boeck. Claus in 1879 establislies 

 Lycxa rohusta, n. s., but gives as a synonym " L. pidex Marion 1 . . . Junges ^ ."

" Notes on some of ihe Species enumerated ; by S. I. Smith," include remarks on the following 

 Amphipoda, pages 29 to 35 ; " Plioxus Kroyeri, Stimpson," " very closely allied to, and pro- 

 bably identical with, the P. Holhollii Kroyer which is found in Greenland, Iceland 

 and northern Scandinavia ; " Ilarpina fusifurmis, Smith [Plwxus fusij'ormis, Stimjjson), 

 " this species is very likely identical with the H. plmnosa Boeck {Phoxus plumosus 

 Kroyer), which has very nearly the same range as Phoxtis Holbollii ; " Stenoihoe peltata, 

 Smith, n. s., PL IV [III], figs. 5-8 ; Sijrrhc/e crenulata, Goiis, "seems to be an exceedingly 

 arctic form, being found in Europe from Spitzbergeu to the western coast of Norway ; " Tiron 

 acantliurus, Lilljeborg (Syrrlioe hicuspis, Goes ; ? Tliessarops [Tessarops'] hastata, Norman) ; 

 CEdiceroa lynceus, Sars (CEdiceros p-opinquus, Goes; Monoculodes nuhilius, Packard, Mem. 

 Boston Soc. Nat. Hist. i. p. 398, 1867) ; Monoculodes horealis, Boeck (CEdiceros affi?iis, 

 Goes) ; Parainphithoo pulchella, Bruzelius (Kroyer sp.) ; Purampihithoe cata^iliracta, 

 (Amphitlionotus cataphractus, Stimpson), " this species is apparently a true ParampJnthoe,
