The position of Cyclopina agilis C B. Wilson, 1932, is doubtful; 

 the species needs reexamination because some of Wilson's statements 

 and figures are certainly wrong. At present the species cannot 

 find a place in any of the above-mentioned genera. Cyclops ovalis 

 Brady, 1872, was described so wantingly by its author that even its 

 place among the Cyclopininae is doubtful. According to Smirnov 

 (1935, p. 310), the identification of Cyclopina hrevijurca G. O. Sars, 

 1913 with Cyclopina schneideri T. Scott, 1903 (cf. G. O. Sars, 1918, 

 p. 209), is debatable, with the result that the genus Cyclopina may 

 contain one more species, Cyclopina hrevijurca G. O. Sars, 1913. 

 The type of the genus Cyclopicina is named Cyclopina longifvrcata 

 in the text of T. Scott's publication, but the name Cyclopina longicau- 

 data is mentioned on page 280 in the explanation of the figures. The 

 species was subsequently mentioned as Cyclopina longicaudata T. 

 Scott by Van Breemen (1908, p. 172), the first author to mention this 

 species after T. Scott; it seems quite clear that it should now be 

 referred to as Cyclopicina longicaudata (T. Scott, 1901). This is the 

 more fortunate since the species can easily be confused with Cyclopina 

 longijurca Sewell, 1924, now in the genus Paracyclopina. 



Lang's use of the generic name Pseudocyclopinodes for Pseudocyclo- 

 pina (Lang, 1946, p. 10) is very distinctly a lapsus calami; the correct 

 spelling is the latter. The first spelling is used in his definition of the 

 genus on page 12 and in the key on page 15. 



The following key may serve to distinguish the females of the 

 various genera. Among several genera the males are unknown and
