Under " Dromie tete de-mort : Dromia clypeata, Latr. ; 

 Cancer caput-mortuum, Linn.," Desmarest states that "Fab- 

 ricius describes under the name Dromia egagropila a species 

 from the Cape of Good Hope." In the Ent. Syst. and its 

 Supplement Fabricius only gives the habitat as the Southern 

 Ocean. 

 1907. Cryptodromia (?) caput-mortuum, Stimpson, Smithson. Misc.

 mortuum to his genus Cryptodromia.

Nos. 15, 16, 29, specimens sent by Dr. Gilchi'ist, were from 

 False Bay, one of the two females taken at about 18 m. depth, 

 near Muizenberg ; a male taken at 55 m. depth, embedded in 

 a compound ascidian, probably that named in the next 

 reference. 

 1904. P. I., Doflein, Valdivia Brachyura, p. 12, pi. 8, figs. 1-6. 



Francis Bay, at about 100 m. depth. The cloaking ascidian 

 in the Valdivia expedition was determined by Michaelsen to be 

 Synandrocarpa domuncula, Michaelsen.
