i do not recognise them as belonging to any described species, 

 and as the classification of this family has lately been thrown 

 into the melting pot by Dr. Mortensen, whose rearrangement of 

 the genera is, in his own words, " a provisional classification, 

 which can scarcely be correct throughout," I propose to wait till 

 something further* can be said about South African Cidarids. 

 The only species as yet recorded from the Cape is Cidaris 

 iiictularia.
