NO. 3 BARNARD: THE PHOXOCEPHALIDAE 277 



Uropod 3 with the rami subequal in length. 



Relative lengths of the various articles on the uropods are seen in 

 Table 8. 



Telson missing. 



The most remarkable part of Dr. Sheard's notes is the drawing of 

 the third pleonal epimeron, which, as Sheard wrote, is quite different 

 from the drawing of Haswell (pi. 19, fig. 2, whole animal). Haswell 

 showed the lower posterior corner of the epimeron to be quadrate; 

 actually the type specimen has a very long, slightly upturned tooth at 

 this point, while the posterior edge has several long setae (see Plate 44, 

 fig. A which is copied from Sheard's notes) . 



Sheard notes that the urosome of the type specimen is damaged. 



Distribution. — Known only from the type locality, Bondi, New 

 South Wales, Australia. 



Paraphoxus pyripes K. H. Barnard 



Paraphoxus pyripes K. H. Barnard 1930: 332-333, fig. 10. 

 Pontharpinia maxima Stephensen 1947 : 42-44, fig. 15-16. 



Remarks. — Dr. Isabella Gordon of the British Museum (Natural 

 History) examined the holotype of this species for me (P. pyripes). The 

 apex of maxillipedal palp article 4 has a defiinite distal spine. 



The large size, small eyes, nearly exact correspondence of peraeopods 

 3-5 and especially the third pleonal epimeron and the geographic distri- 

 bution indicate that P. maxima is a synonym of P. pyripes. 



Distribution. — New Zealand, off Campbell Island; McMurdo 

 Sound, Antartica; Bridgeman, Graham Region, Antartica. Surface to 

 benthos of 750 meters.
