BEVISED LIST OF HYDKOMEDUS^E of the 

 L.M.B.C. DISTKICT. 



By Edward T. Browne, B.A., F.Z.S. 



[Read 12th January, 1897.] 



Since the publication of my Keport on the Medusae of 

 the L.M.B.C. District, in 1895, fresh researches in some 

 cases have led to changes in the generic and specific 

 names, and in other cases show that medusae formerly 

 regarded as distinct species are only early stages of other 

 known species. I have given an account of these changes 

 in nomenclature in a paper published in the Proceedings 

 of the Zoological Society for 1896, upon which this 

 Revision is based. 



I append in tabular form a list of the Medusae which I 

 obtained at Port Erin in April, 1896, and notes on a few 

 of the species.
