Tlie careful description and figures of this new species "found in the surface-not about the 

 Palmyras shoal and the mouth of the Dhanira river on the Orissa Coast," show that it is 

 not a Cyrto]]hium, but a Cerapiis. Templeton's notes on Cerapus abditus will be 

 recalled by the remark made upon this species, that " when alive and at ease, it would 

 frequently turn itself inside its tube, and protrude its head from the opposite extremity." 

 Observations made on the structure of the tube are here recorded. In this paper the 

 appendages of the thorax arc reckoned as eight pairs, the first gnathopods being called the 

 " 2nd pair of appendages " as an alternative title, and the fifth peraeopods being spoken of 

 only as the 8th pair of appendages.

Two specimens, a male and female, were available for the description of the new species, named 

 MeNta megacheles. They were "brought up by the hempen tangles from 12i fathoms 

 near the Mutla Light Ship." The species is figured on pi. iii.

M. de Guerne, in discussing the fauna of the buoys, says (p. .327) that upon them "au milieu 

 des hydraires grouille unc innombrable quautite d'amphipodes {Podocei-us pukhellus)."
