  As 
  the 
  very 
  common 
  and 
  widely 
  distributed 
  species 
  which 
  is 
  here 
  

   referred 
  to 
  the 
  Alpheus 
  ediuardsii 
  of 
  Audouin 
  has 
  been 
  designated 
  

   by 
  many 
  different 
  specific 
  names, 
  it 
  may 
  be 
  useful 
  to 
  point 
  out 
  its 
  

   most 
  salient 
  characters, 
  more 
  especially 
  as 
  Savigny's 
  excellent 
  figure, 
  

   by 
  which 
  alone 
  the 
  species 
  may 
  be 
  easily 
  identified, 
  is 
  not 
  accom- 
  

   panied 
  by 
  any 
  description. 
  The 
  rostrum 
  is 
  short, 
  acute, 
  and 
  arises 
  

   from 
  the 
  front 
  margin 
  of 
  the 
  carapace 
  ; 
  on 
  either 
  side 
  of 
  it, 
  between 
  

   the 
  front 
  and 
  supraocular 
  arches, 
  a 
  longitudinal 
  depression 
  extends 
  

   back 
  on 
  the 
  dorsal 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  carapace 
  for 
  a 
  short 
  distance, 
  so 
  

   that 
  the 
  dorsal 
  surface 
  is 
  slightly 
  carinatcd. 
  The 
  second 
  (exposed) 
  

   joint 
  of 
  the 
  antennules 
  is 
  longer 
  than 
  the 
  first. 
  The 
  basal 
  scale 
  of 
  

   the 
  outer 
  antennae 
  scarcely 
  reaches 
  beyond 
  the 
  peduncle, 
  and 
  is
