MUNIDA CARIBiEA Stimpson. 



Munida caribiea Stimpson, Ann. Lye. Nat. Hist. New York, VII, 1860, p. 244. 

 Dr. Faxon says of this: "'The specimens doubtfull}^ referred to, 

 Munida car/hxa Stimpson, by Prof. S. I. Smith are Munida iris of 

 Milne-Edwards. Stimpson's Munida carihxa is absolutely indeter- 

 minable from his brief notice of it, and the types were burned in the 

 great Chicago fire. The name carihsea should then be dropped and 

 Milne-Edwards's iris Sind'irrasa should be retained. "«
