1726 THE VOYAGE OF H.M.S. CHALLENGER. 



the spine-row of the left, two in that of the right, mandible. The palp of the first maxillae is apically fringed with nine spine- 

 teeth. The joint of the maxillipeds which carries the outer plate is not largely developed; the third joint of the palp is elongate 

 as well as the second. The finger in the gnathopods carries very inconspicuous spinules. In the first and second peraopods the 

 fourth joint is considerably longer than the third; the fifth joint in the second pair has a fringe of about a dozen short blunt spines, 

 which are not seen on the first pair. The uropods of the specimen were damaged. The peduncle in the first pair is long; in the 

 second pair the outer ramus is rather longer than the peduncle but much shorter than the inner ramus; in the third pair the rami 

 are laminar, longer than the peduncle. There appears to be a small dorsal tooth on each of the hinder segments of the pleou. 

 This species seems to stand between Pardalisca and Nicippe, as Synopioides between Nicippe and Ealicc. Length of specimen, 

 without the antenna;, not quite a third of an inch. It was taken at Station 297, November 11, 1875; South Pacific; lat. 37° 29' S., 

 long. 83° 7' W.; tow-net at the trawl; depth, 1775 fathoms; bottom temperature, 35° - 5; surface temperature, 57°. 



On p. 1690, to the species of Anonyx should be added on Kr0yer's authority, borne spei, Holboll, MS., 1842 ; flagettiformis, 

 HolbpSU, MS., 1846; mcdius, Holboll, MS., 1846; perfolialus, HolbpSll, MS., 1846. The first three of these Kr0yer identifies 

 with HolbfiU's Anonyx EschrieUii under the name Opis lypica; the fourth he unites with his own Anonyx holbblli (compare 

 pp. 200, 215). The footnote on p. 1690 must be cancelled, since " An. oonss spec." in Kr^yer's work was merely a misprint for 

 An. uonas spei, a species distinct from Anonyx brevipcs.
