E. von Martens in the Zoological Eecord for 1883 says that Stegocc^ihalus kessleri, sp. u., from 

 the northern coast of Asia, is figured l3ut not described (p. 713). Of Acanthostephia 

 malmgreni (Goes) a woodcut is given and an account of its general occurrence in the Siberian 

 glacial sea (pp. 724, 729). Atylus carinatus (Fab.) is mentioned (pp. 723, 729) for its 

 occurrence in the same sea. " Weijj'/rechfm, g. n., for W. mirahilis, sp. n., 51 mm. long. 

 Description of the species, but no generic characters given." (See Note on Stuxberg, 

 1880.)

In this list of Amphipods from the west coast of France, forty species are mentioned, the habitat 

 being specified from which each was obtained. The determination of the species was made 

 with the assistance of Bate and Westwood's well-known work, and includes " Gossea 

 microdeiitopa S. Bate," but this M. Chevreux has since informed me was entered in mistake 

 for CalUopius norvegicus, Eathke.

The now species described are Nicea egregia, Cyiwoidia (?) crasisa, Mmra inceiia, Podocerus 

 frequens. Cijpruidia (?) crassa differs so much in the form of the coxa3 from the other 

 three species belonging to Haswell's genus Cyproidia that, as Mr. Chilton himself suggests, 

 it will probably have to find a generic place elsewhere. 



Article III. describes and Plate IV. figures Phreatoirus fiipicus, a singular well-shrimp, of a new 

 genus and species, which appears to be an Isopod with some remarkable Amphipodan 

 affinities. The genus is thus defined : — " Body long, sub-cylindrical, laterally compressed. 

 Upper antenna short, lower long, with flageUum. Mandible with an appendage. First pair 

 of legs subchelate, others simple ; first four pairs articulated to body at the anterior ends of
