Chilton. — Crustacea from the Coast of Auckland. 267 



Eupagurus edwardsi, Filhol. G. M. Thomson, Trans. N.Z. 



Inst., xxxi, p. 182 ; Index Faunae N.Z., p. 251. 



Two specimens, from Channel Island, Hauraki Gulf, 25 

 fathoms. These agree very well with the descriptions given 

 by Thomson and Filhol. One is a fairly large specimen, with 

 carapace about 15 mm. long ; the other has the carapace not 

 more than 10 mm. long. In the latter the propodos of the right 

 chelipede bears few tubercles on its outer surface, and those 

 present are small and somewhat spiny. 



In some points this species shows a marked resemblance to 

 E. spinulimanus, Miers, and I should not be surprised if the 

 two prove to be identical. I have two or three small specimens 

 from Auckland, collected by Dr. Cockayne in 1905, which also 

 belong to this species, and are almost more like E. spinulimanus. 



Stratiotes setosus, Filhol. G. M. Thomson, Trans. N.Z. Inst., 



xxxi, p. 185 ; Index Faunae N.Z., p. 252. 



Several specimens from Channel Island, 25 fathoms. These 

 are much smaller than the specimen in the Canterbury Museum 

 that was examined and named as above by Mr. Thomson, but 

 they agree closely with his description. 



Petrolisthes novae - zealandiae, Filhol. Thomson, Trans. N.Z. 



Inst., xxxi, p. 190; Index Faunae N.Z., p. 252. 



Two small specimens from Channel Islands, 25 fathoms, 

 appear to belong to this species, but they are too young for 

 certain identification. 



Galathea pusilla, Henderson. Thomson, Trans. N.Z. Inst., xxxi, 



p. 193 ; Index FaunaB N.Z., p. 252. 



Two specimens from Channel Islands, 25 fathoms. This 

 species was previously known in New Zealand from Cook Strait, 

 Wanganui, and Paterson's Inlet, and was obtained by the 

 " Challenger " off the south-east of Australia.

 A single specimen, a female with eggs, from Channel Islands, 

 25 fathoms, undoubtedly belongs to this species. The species 

 is a widely distributed one. Haswell records it from Tasmania,
