Material analyzed. — Type specimen of Phoxus villosus Haswell, 

 1879, female, 11 mm, G 5413, Australian Museum, Sydney, examined 

 by Dr. Keith Sheard. 



Remarks. — The examination by Dr. Keith Sheard of this specimen 

 has been valuable in showing that the P. villosus of many others, such 

 as Tattersall 1922 and Schellenberg 1931, were other species. 



From Dr. Sheard's notes it appears that Haswell's figures of this 

 specimen are adequate (pi. 9, fig. 2). 



Gnathopods 1 and 2 with article 6 broadly expanded, the palm 

 nearly transverse. Dr. Sheard's measurements show that in gnathopod 

 1 the ratio of lengths of articles 6 to 5 is 6:5 while in gnathopod 2 

 it is 6:4, article 5 being a little shorter than 6 in the first gnathopod. 



Table 9 gives the relative lengths and widths of the articles of 

 the 5 pairs of peraeopods as measured by Dr. Sheard. These show 

 that peraeopods 3-5 were well figured by Haswell; salient features 

 include the facts that peraeopods 3 and 4 are rather slender (a point 

 used by Stebbing 1899 to distinguish the genus Parharpinia for which 

 this species is the type) and the second article of the fifth peraeopod 

 is very broadly expanded. The posterior edges of article 2 of peraeopods 

 4 and 5 are finely crenulated and bear long setae.
