Sea. Two additional species have since been taken in the Bay, 
namely, D. orthogonia, Darwin, and D. nierstraszt, Hoek. Both 
these species are fully described and figured in Hoek’s account of 
the Cirripedia Pedunculata taken by the ‘‘Siboga’”’ Expedition in 
the Malay Archipelago (1907). My specimens of D. nterstraszt, 
which through the kindness of Prof. Max Weber I have been 
able to compare with some of Hoek’s original specimens, were 
found on the stem of a hydroid brought ashore in a seine-net on 
the beach at Puri on the Orissa coast. A single specimen of D. 
orthogonia accompanied them, while another specimen of that 
species was recently dredged by the ‘‘ Investigator ’’ off the coast 
of Burma in a depth of between 40 and 50 fathoms. Both 
species are common in the Malay Archipelago, and I have recently 
received specimens of D. orthogonia from Mr. J. J. Simpson, who 
took them on the coast of Portuguese East Africa.

NOTE ON SLUGS FROM THE EASTERN HIMALAYAS.—As a 
result of a recent visit to Kurseong, situated at an altitude of 
4,700—5,000 feet in the Darjiling district, the following notes 
were made. My visit took place in the latter fortnight of June, 
during the rainy weather usual at that time of year. 
Austenia stkkimense var. mainwaringt, G. A. 
I found this form common on the leaves of shrubs in the 
jungle in the morning and evening. The colour of the living 
animal, which measured 25 mm. in length when fullv extended, 
was almost black with a faint marbling on the shell lobes and 
occasionally with a thin brownish line on the right edge of the 
right shell lobe ; the sole slate-grey. The visceral hump was very 
distinctly separated from the foot behind and appeared laterally 
angulate when viewed from the right side. The fresh shell was 
whitish and opaque at the apex, glassy and faintly tinged with 
brown elsewhere. The foot behind the visceral hump was relatively 
longer than it is in specimens preserved in spirit.

Godwin-Austen, Mol. Ind., vol. ii, pt. xi, p. 288, pl. 128, 
figs. 15, 15a; pl. 130, figs. 1—1d (1910). 
Two specimens of this species, which is probably by no means 
scarce, were obtained. One was found with its tentacles retracted, 
adhering tightly to a garden wall in a shady place during the day, 
the other was crawling in a ditch by the side of the road at dusk.
