THE FAUNA OF THE SALCOMBE ESTUARY. 203 



Urothoe, sp. Several specimens were taken in the cheese-cloth 

 trawl on the bar. 



Leucothoe spinicarpa {Ahild). One was taken in the dredge, west 

 of Salstone. 



Pontocrates altamarinus (Spence Bate). Two specimens were taken 

 on the bar. 



Paratylus falcatus {Mctzger). One specimen was taken on the bar, 

 in the cheese-cloth trawl. It is, I believe, new to Britain. Sars 

 {Crust, of Norway, vol. i. p. 466) records it from the south-east coast of 

 Norway, Karmo, and the west coast of Finmark. Other records are : 

 East Frisian coast (Metzger), French coast (Chevreux), Dutch coast 

 (Hoek). 



Dexamine spinosa {Montagu). A few were taken in the cheese-cloth 

 trawl on the zostera off Ditch End, three on the zostera under the 

 Marine Hotel, and three in the dredge, between the Salstone and the 

 mouth of the harbour. 



Gammarus locusta {Linn). Taken in nearly all hauls of the dredge 

 and cheese-cloth trawl ; commonest on the zostera south of Pilworthy 

 Point. 



Gammarus campylops. Leach. Taken commonly in the cheese-cloth 

 trawl on the zostera banks on the east side of Salcombe Harbour, 

 between Ferry House and Millbay Sands. 



Melita gladiosa, Spence Bate. One or two specimens were dredged 

 in the channel in Salcombe Harbour. 



Amphithoe rubricata {Montagu). Present in most hauls of the 

 dredge, excepting those taken in the " Bag." 



CoROPHiUM grossipes (Linn). Found very commonly in the mud-flat 

 off Ditch End, living in vertical burrows 4 to 5 inches long. A few 

 were also taken in the cheese-cloth trawl on the zostera bank between 

 Snape's Point and Salcombe town. 



Phthisica marina. Slabber. A few were taken on the zostera bank 

 off Ditch End, and two on the zostera bank on the east side of 

 Salcombe Harbour, between Ferry House and Millbay Sands. 



Protella phasma {Montagu). Common in dredge material. 



ISOPODA. 



[Nomenclature that of G. 0. Sars, Crustacea of Norway, vol. ii.] 



Apseudes talpa {Montagu). Not uncommon in dredgings taken 

 between the Salstone and Snape's Point. 



Anthura gracilis {Montagu). One specimen only was taken when 

 dredging in the " Bag." 



Gnathia maxillaris {Montagu). Very common in dredgings from 

 the harbour, and two from the " Bag."
