?.rrt,fi7-^r!i(.-i CRUSTACEA. ;h^»ff 



Of 'riife'ste, I have notes of about eighty species, amongst 

 which, perhaps, those included in the genera Pirimela^ PortunuSy 

 Pinnotheres, Gonoplax, Pisa, Maja, and Gebia, Leach, are 

 most worthy of enumeration. 



'" INSECTA. ^'^^ 



Of these I have httle or no knowledge, nor am I aware that 

 any attempt has been made, as yet, to shew their geographical 

 distribution over this tract. Judging from the collections I 

 have seen, formed within the district, and from conversations I 

 have had with good entomologists, I infer that it is very rich in 

 this department.
