 MUNIDOPSIS BERINGANA," new species. 



Three specimens of a Munidopsis were dredged in Bering Sea, 

 which at first sight would be called 2L antonii; but a careful examina- 

 tion shows that the texture of the carapace dili'ers, that the rostrum 

 is curved and not as in M. antonlL which, though directed upward, is 

 perfectly straight. 



The carapace of the Bering Sea species is, in its texture, more like 



« Allowance must be made for the figure of this species, as the specimens were soft; 

 the exuvije still partly attached to one. The small one is, however, hard, and this 

 confirms the specific characters given to the large specimens. The short rugose lines 

 of the posterior sides are more marked in the specimens than in the figure.
