AMPHIPODA FROM BAY OF BISCAY. 221 



appears to have had younger specimens to deal with than either 

 Bruzelius or Boeck. His description (p. G30) is as follows : " 1st 

 segment with two succeeding dorsal tubercles ; 2nd segment with a 

 slight tubercle in front of the sulcus ; the succeeding segments scarcely 

 tubercular, but having the dorsal contour somewhat rugged," 



There is little to add to the full descriptions of the species, already 

 referred to. In both specimens the 6th and 7th peraeon-segments 

 are coalesced ; the finger of Gnathopod 1 is bifid at the apex and 

 furnished on both margins with small setae ; the finger of Gnathopod 

 2 has the marginal setae as in Gnath. 1, and two specialized bristles 

 at the articulation, one simple and one plumose ; the pleopods have no 

 cleft spines ; the coupling-spines are of the same construction as those 

 figured by Stebbing for L. furus (39), pi. 132, six in the older animal 

 (armatus), and rami 9-jointed, five coupling-spines in tuhcradatus and 

 rami 8-jointed. 



The species has only been recorded hitlierto from the coast of Norway 

 and the Shetland Islands,

Pseudoprotella phasma (iNIontagu). 



(For synonymy and distribution, see Mayer (19), p. 29 ; (20), p. 19 ; 

 and (21), p. 37.) 



.Station XIII. Five specimens; 1 female measuring 11 mm., and 4 males, 

 10-15 mm. in length. 



This species has been frequently taken on the oceanic coast of France, 

 but the depth at which the Huxley specimens were trawled, 412 

 fathoms, appears to be the greatest yet recorded for its occurrence.
