454: .1. E. Ven'ill — Decapod Crustacea of Bermuda. 



The following 24 species range northward on the American coast 

 to or beyond South Carolina, as permanent residents: — 



Ocypode arenarius, (to N. Jer- Portunus Sayi. 



sey.) Acheloiis anceps. 



Planes minutus, (to N. Jersey.) A. Gibbesii. 



Pliigvsia depressa. A. spinimanus, Sniithii. 



(Jt/cloxantfiojys dentio/latus. A. Sebce. 



Eupcaiopeus Herbstii, [to CCo^.) A. Ord%oayi. 



E. Herbstii obesus, (to C. Cod.) A. depress! frons. 



E. occidentalis. Stenorhynchus Sagittarius. 



Euryfiuni limosmn, (to N. Jer- Podochela Riisei. 



sey.) Mithrax forceps. 



Eriphia gonagra. Macrocceloma trispinosum. 



Callinectes ornatus. Calappa flammea. 



C. sapidus, (to C. Cod.) Petrolisthes armatus. 



Several of the species, mostly grapsoids, are found in most, or all, 

 tropical seas, as well as in the West Indies. They are as follows: — 



Grapsus grapsus. Plagusia depressa. 



Geograpsus lividus. Percnon planissimum. 



Pachygrapsus transversus. Domecia hispida. 



Planes tninutus. Petrolisthes armatus. 



Of these the most widely distributed is probably Planes minutus, 

 which, in the Atlantic, ranges from Nova Scotia to the Straits of 

 Magellan, and in the Pacific from California to New Zealand, etc. 



Nearly all the widely distributed species, included in the last list, 

 are found on the West Coast of Africa. But some additional 

 species, common to Bermuda and the W. Indies, are also found on 

 the West African coast. Namely : 



Goniopsis cruentatus Calappa flammea 



Callinectes marginatns, larvatus C. gcdlus, galloides 



Stenorhynchus Sagittarius Hippa cubensis 



On page 313, Cardisoma guanhumi is also given as occurring in 



West Africa. Stimpson, Ortmanu and other writers have recorded 



it from there, but Miss Rathbun (1900) places all such records under 



C. armatum Herkl. The Pacific Coast record is also probably 



erroneous.
