Mus. p. 104, pl. xvii, fig. 1, (1862), copied from Dana. 
Superior antennz not half as long as the body, terete; inferior pair 
nearly twice as long ; base twice as long as base of superior, flagellum 
twice as long as base. Seventh pair of legs as long as body, styliform 
at extremity, four anterior legs unequal, hands similar, hand of first 
pair smallest, of second pair of moderate size, broad, sub-ovate, nearly 
naked, obliquely truncate, palm oblique, very slightly excavate, or 
nearly straight. Remaining pairs having the first joint rather narrow. 
Length 2 lines. (D.). 
New Zealand, Bay of Islands (Dana). In small pools on the rocky 
shores, near Cororatika, 
I have not seen this species.

Paramoera, Miers, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (ser. 4) xv, p, 75, (1875). 
Superior antenne exappendiculate, but little longer than the inferior. 
First four legs with the hands well developed, finger closing along the 
inferior margin of the palm. Last pair of natatory legs with the rami 
very unequal, the inner short or rudimentary. Last segment cleft 
nearly to the base. 
This genus was founded upon a species from Kerguelen’s Island, 
but the subsequent examination of a larger series of specimens showed 
that the last pair of natatory legs or stylets were in reality biramous, 
one of the rami being broken off in the specimen originally described ; 
and the species belonged in reality to the genus Atylus.
