* Colossendeis iwohosdilea, Sabine (sp.). Phoxkhihis jjro- 



boscideus, Sabine, Supplement to the Appendix of Cap- 

 tain Parry's Voyage, Zoology, p. ccxxvL C. horecdis, 

 Jarzyn.sky, Praemissus catalogus Pycnogonidarum inven- 

 tarum in mari glaciali ad oras Lapponicae rossicie et in 

 marialbo, anno 1869et70, Annalesde laSoc. desNatur. 

 de St Petersb., 1870. C prohnscidea, Sabine, G. 0. 

 Sars. Prodromus descriptionis, &c., Arch. f. JNIath. 

 og Naturv., ii. 268, 1877. A gigantic Pycnogonid of 

 the higher northern latitudes. 



* Colossendeis megalonyx, n. sp. A well-characterised 



species. In some respects it resembles the C. 2'ro- 

 loscidea, Sabine, of the higher northern latitudes ; it 

 has, however, a much more slender body and longer legs. 

 Colossendeis angusta, G. O. Sars, Prodromus descriptionis, 

 &c.. Arch. f. Math, og Naturvid., ii. 268, 1877. This 

 species is the slender Colossendeis of higher nothern 

 latitudes. 



* Colossendeis leptorhynclnis, n. sjj. This species seems to 



be a very good one. It is easily recognized by its 

 extremely long and narrow proboscis, of an almost 

 cylindrical shape. 



* Colossendeis {jigas-leptorhynchus. A single specimen of 



this form was dredged at Station 158. It shows the 

 proboscis of C. gigas, whereas the palpi are those of C. 

 leptorhynchus. In other respects it resembles both 

 species. 



* Colossendeis gigas, n. sp. This seems to be the largest, 



not only of the species of the genus Colossendeis, but 

 of all the difTerent forms hitherto described. 

 Colossendeis kroyerii, Wood-Mason (sp.). Rhopalorhyn- 

 chus kroyerii, Wood-Mason. A small but very charac- 

 teristic species of the genus Colossendeis. 



* Colossendeis robusta, n. sp. A beautiful species, easily 



to be recognised by the form of its proboscis, &c. 



* Colossendeis gracilis, n. sp. The species C. media, 



C. brevipes, and C. gracilis, proposed by me, only 

 show very slight differences. In regard to C. gracilis, 

 I tliink it is a very interesting fact, that one of the 

 specimens is furnished with distinct mandibles. 

 *Colossendeis 7nedia, n. sp. Characterised by the long claws 

 of the legs, and by the peculiar shape of the last joints 

 of the paljn.
