REPORT ON THE AMPHIPODA. 1151 



a group of feathered setae and cilia is planted a little way from the distal margin, not far 

 from each lateral margin. 



Length. — The specimen, in the position figured, measured, in a straight line from the 

 front of the head to the extremity of the third uropods, three-tenths of an inch. 



Locality. — Station 161, off Melbourne, April 1, 1874; depth, 33 fathoms; bottom, 

 sand. Two specimens. The specimen figured is a female ; the other specimen, two-tenths 

 of an inch in length, antennae not included, is probably a male, differing from the female 

 in having the palm of the first gnathopod partially excavate, near the palmar spine. 



Remark. — The specific name is given in honour of the celebrated entomologist, J. 0. 

 Westwood. 



Genus Paradryope, n. gen. 



Mandibles with dentate cutting edge and secondary plate, the spine-row with few 

 spines, the molar tubercle prominent, the palp very long, its third joint very little 

 shorter than the second. 



Antenna?, with the peduncles elongate ; Upper Antenna; with the third joint longer 

 than the second, and a small accessory flagellum ; Lower Antennas with the fifth joint of 

 the peduncle longer than the fourth. 



First Gnathopods larger than the Second. 



Third, Fourth, and Fifth Perieopods with the first joint little expanded ; fourth pair 

 longer than the third, fifth than the fourth. 



First and Second Uropods with the outer ramus considerably shorter than the 

 inner ; Third Uropods with the peduncles broad, reaching beyond the telson, the rami 

 minute, the outer a little longer than the inner. 



Telson simple. 



Side-plates shallow. 



Sixth segment of the Pleon dorsally well developed. 



The generic name refers to the resemblances shown by this genus to Dryope, Spence 

 Bate, and the new genus Dryopoides ; the long-jointed peduncles of the antennae also 

 recall the genera Gammaropsis and Podoceropsis. 



Paradryope orguion, n. sp. (PI. CXXIIL). 



The Rostrum short, acute, the lateral lobes of the head acute, produced a little beyond 

 the rostrum ; the back of the animal rather broadly rounded, with the side-plates 

 shallow ; the postero-lateral angles of the first three segments of the pleon slightly 

 rounded, each carrying a spinule ; the fourth segment having two dorsal spinules. 



The Eyes very small, round, situated near the lateral lobes of the head.
