1650 THE VOYAGE OF H.M.S. CHALLENGER. 



incidentally by a reference to " Moera crassipes," Haswell, a species which I myself from 

 another point of view had been led to place under Elasmopus. PL III. gives figures of 

 " Moera scissimana Costa," and of " Moera grossimana Montagu," PI. IV. gives figures of 

 "Moera rapax Costa" and of " Gammarella brevicaudata Milne-Edwards." The details of 

 the two species of Maera are also illustrated by figures incorporated in the text.

1. From " Horta, ile de Fayal, maree basse," ten species of Amphipods are recorded, with notes 



on " Hyale Nilsoni Eathke," "Bi/ale Schmidti Heller," and " Hi/ale Stebbingi nov. sp. " ; 

 of the last a description is given, and the. observation is made that "les epines crochues et 

 dentelees des cinq derniores paires de pattes thoraciques ne se retrouvent que chez une seule 

 autre espece du genre : H. Lnbboclaana Sp. Bate ; niais cette derniere differe bien nettement 

 de H. Stebbingi par ses antennes inferieures plus courtes, presque glabres, et par les petites 

 dents que portent ses epimeres, et le premier article de ses pattes des trois dernieres paires." 



2. From " Rade de Horta, ile Fayal, profondeur, 15 metres," eight species are named. 



3. "Au large de Ponta Delgada, ile San-Miguel, 8 juillet, 9 h. 30 du soir, surface," " Urothoe 



Poucheti nov. sp." was obtained. This species is described, and the observation made that 

 "cette espece, assez voisine d' Urothoe elegans Sp. Bate, en differe par sa forme rnoins 

 obese, la grandeur et l'aspect particulier de ses yeux, et surtout par ses pattes sauteuses 

 des deux premieres paires, qui sont plus developpees que chez les autres especes du genre." 



4. " Au Sud de Pico, 14 juillet, 8 h. du soir, surface," two specimens were obtained of 



Corophium crassicorne, Bruzelius.

Sur quelques crustaces Amphipodes provenant d'un dragage de YHirondelle au

A dredging about eighty miles south-west of the ile de Groix, lat. 46° 3' N., at a depth of 

 100 fathoms on ground covered with Annelid-tubes, yielded twenty-seven species of 

 Amphipoda, four of them being new species and four of them species not previously recorded 

 from French waters. Latin descriptions are given of the new species, which are named 

 Lepidepecreum clypeafum, Phoxus maculatus, AmjiJtilochus longimanus, Monoeulodes gib- 

 bosus, in each case the female only having been obtained. The four species new to the 

 locality are "Ichnopits spinicornis Boeck," " Stegocephalus Christiamiensis Boeck," " Metopa 

 rubromttata G. O. Sars," and " Unriola Steenstrupi Boeck." A footnote mentions that 

 " Gitana Sarsi Boeck " has for a synonym " Amphilochus Sabrinse Stebbing, teste G. 0. Sars," 

 which is no doubt a correct determination. 



Phoxus maculatus appears to come near to Phoxus oculatus, G. O. Sars, but to differ from it by 

 having the body elongate and narrow, instead of short and thickset, the eyes oval instead of 

 round, the telson short instead of long, and perhaps also by the colouring. A male specimen 

 of Phoxus, with dark oval or reniform eyes, has recently been taken by Mr. David Robertson 

 in the Clyde, but this differs from both the described species in the shape of the first 

 gnathopods.
