July, 1899, both at or near the surface, as well as at a 

 depth of 33 fathoms. It appears to be generally, but very 

 sparingly, distributed about the British Isles, and through- 

 out the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. 



It and the other species of the genus Candacia are easily 

 distinguishable by their dark-coloured antennules, spines 

 and plumes, and the terminal spines of the swimming feet. 



2. Corycwus anglicus, Lubbock, On Eight New Species 



of Entomostraca found at Weymouth, Ann. and Mag. 



of Nat. Hist., 2nd Ser., vol. XX., PI. XL, 1857. 

 A single specimen of this species was taken by tow-net 

 off Port Erin on November 26th, 1898, and a shoal of it 

 was captured there on May 29th, 1899. It is a fairly 

 common species about the south and south-west coasts of 

 England and Ireland, and Mr. Thomas Scott has reported 

 it from the Forth, and more recently, we understand, he 

 took it in the Clyde, but it is entirely new to the L.M.B.C. 

 district.
