 The genns Fortnniis was divided by de Plaan into many sub- 

 genera. To one of these he gave the preoccupied name Occaims, 

 assigning to it the ;ingle species Cancer cruciatus Herbat. This 

 has been transferred to de Haan's next subgenus Charyhdis. 

 Fault was found with this name because of its resemblance to the 

 earlier Charybdea or Coryhdca of Peron and Lesueur. On this in- 

 adequate ground Goniosoma was substituted, which by the irony 

 -of fate was itself really preoccupied.
