528 THE VOYAGE OF H.M.S. CHALLENGEE. 



1881. Hartwig, G. 



The Sea and its living wonders, a popular account of the marvels of the deep 



and of the progress of maritime discovery from the earliest ages to the present time. 



New Edition. London, 1881. 



Among the " Edriophthalmia " he mentions, page 247, " the saltatorial sandhoppers (Talitrus)," 

 " the ill-famed Chelurse," " the parasitical Cyami which gnaw deep holes into the skLa of 

 the whale." Figures are given of Chelura terebrans and a " sandhopper," presumably 

 Talitrux locusta. The frequency of the sandhoppers on the shores of the Arctic seas is 

 illustrated by HolbtiU's account of his experiment with bait in an open basket let down to 

 a dejjth of seventy-five fathoms. It is scarcely necessary to remark that the Amphipods 

 taken in that instance were not the sandhoppers of the shore. 



1881. Leslie, George, and Herdman, William A. 



The invertebrate Fauna of the Firth of Forth. Part IL comprising the 

 Protozoa, Polyzoa, Crustacea, and Tunicata. From the Proceedings of the Eoyal 

 Physical Society of Edinburgh, vol. vi., 1881. Edinburgh, 1881. 



The Crustacea extend from page 42 to page 52. " In the arrangement and nomenclature of the 

 Amphipoda and Isopoda," the authors say, " we have followed Bate and Westwood's ' British 

 Sessile-eyed Crustacea,' a work from which we have derived the greatest assistance." They 

 enumerate only sixteen species of Amphipoda, without any descriptions. The " Gaprella 

 linearis (Linn.)," may probably be the same as the " C. lobata (Miill.)," which they identify 

 with " the C. Ixvis of Goodsir." This will reduce the number of species to fifteen, of which 

 five are Caprellidae. It wiU be tolerably safe to say that such a list gives no idea what- 

 ever of the Amphipod-fauna of the Firth of Forth. Six out of the ten species of normal 

 Amphipoda are given on the authority of Metzger.

It is here noted that Glycera, Haswell's name for a new genus in the Lysianassinse, is preoccupied 

 in Annelides.

It is noted that the name Chloris, used by Has well for a new genus among the GammaridK, is 

 twice preoccupied in Aves, and once in Botany.
