British Atriphlpoda. 



In the January, February, and April numbers of the Ann, Alai^. Nat. 

 Hist. (7th ser., vol. v.), Rev. Canon A. M. Norman commences a revision 

 of the British Amphipoda, including not only Ireland, but (like Prof. 

 M'Intosh) the Channel Islands also in the " British " area. The list is 

 most useful to zoologists, and contains a large number of Irish records.
