After much consideration I liave been led to regard 

 ]\1 filler's original specimens of Comatula timorensis Mus. 

 Leyd. as identical with those described by him under the 

 specific name parvicirra. 



The two descriptions are on the same page in VoL I of 

 Wiegman's Archiv for IRIl . while in the Berlin. Monats- 

 berichte for the same year Alecto parvicirra is described 

 on p. 185, and Alecto timorensis on p. 186. Muller says 

 but little about his type specimens of parvicirra except 

 that they are in the Paris Museum and that their locality 

 is not known , his specific diagnosis being very meagre
