HYPERIA GALBA, 15 
Banff, and Professor Milne Edwards mentions having 
found it on the shores of France. 
Among several specimens sent to us from Banff, were a 
few of a smaller size, which differed from the others in 
having much shorter antenne, the inferior being the 
shortest, and terminating in a more obtuse extremity than 
in the larger specimens. We were at first inclined to 
describe them as a distinct species, but, all other condi- 
tions being considered, we feel certain that they are 
only immature specimens, a circumstance which induces 
us to think that probably H. medusarum (Fabr.) of the 
Arctic sea may likewise be but the young of this or some 
other species. 
The following vignette represents the little fishing vil- 
lage of Polperro, in Cornwall, a place that has been 
rendered attractive to naturalists as the scene of the la- 
bours, as well as the residence, of Jonathan Couch, Esq., 
F.L.S.
