  certain 
  number 
  of 
  Decapoda 
  from 
  Madagascar; 
  among 
  them 
  are 
  

   certain 
  sjjecies 
  new 
  to 
  the 
  Madagascar 
  fauna. 
  

  

  1 
  may 
  refer, 
  in 
  conclusion, 
  to 
  Dr. 
  11. 
  Kossmann's 
  elaborate 
  account 
  

   of 
  the 
  Malacostraca 
  (Brachi/i(ra 
  and 
  Anomura) 
  in 
  the 
  yet 
  incom- 
  

   plete 
  account 
  of 
  his' 
  Exploration 
  of 
  the 
  coasts 
  of 
  the 
  lied 
  Sea*, 
  

   wherein 
  the 
  principle 
  of 
  uniting 
  allied 
  species 
  is 
  carried 
  to 
  a 
  j^erhaps 
  

   inconvenient 
  degree, 
  and 
  some 
  modifications 
  in 
  the 
  classification 
  of 
  

   genera 
  and 
  species 
  are 
  projwsed 
  which 
  are 
  of 
  doubtful 
  value 
  to 
  the 
  

   systematist, 
  but 
  which 
  contains 
  much 
  important 
  and 
  useful 
  matter 
  

   relating 
  to 
  the 
  Crustacean 
  fauna 
  of 
  the 
  Eed 
  Sea. 
  In 
  this 
  work 
  

   frequent 
  reference 
  is 
  made 
  to 
  a 
  publication 
  (in 
  liussian, 
  and 
  with 
  

   llussian 
  title) 
  by 
  Dr. 
  Paulson, 
  which 
  appeared 
  at 
  Kiew 
  in 
  187o, 
  but 
  

   which 
  1 
  have 
  never 
  seenf, 
  and 
  which 
  I 
  believe 
  has 
  been 
  quoted 
  by 
  

   no 
  other 
  carcinoloaist.
