 Miss Rathbun considers that Squilla, Fabricius, 1793, was 

 preoccupied by O. F. Mllller in 1776 for a genus of Amphi- 

 poda. But Miiller's Squilla ventricosa is a synonym of 

 Slabber's Phtisica marina, 1769, so that Squilla, Miiller, 

 cannot be upheld, and yet it does not seem reasonable that a 

 name which had long been common property, as it were, 

 should lapse through a casual misappropriation. Seba's 

 Squilla mantis, vol. iii. of his Thesauri, 1760, sufficiently justi- 

 fied Fabricius in his own day, though now open to cavil, as 

 coming from an authority not consistently binomial.
