enhance, the merits of the rare collection amongst which they are at 
present, with their countryman the Hippopotamus, so hospitably

4. Nore upon THE Genus Cypripina, MitNg-EpDWARDS, WITH 
a DescrIpTION oF soME New Species. By W. Barro, 
M.D., F.L.S. 
(Annulosa, Pl. LXXI.) 
The genus Cypridina, belonging to the Ostracod Order of the 
Entomostracous Crustacea, was founded by Milne-Edwards in 1838, 
in Lamarck’s ‘ Hist. Nat. An. s. Vert.’ vol. v., in a note to the genus 
Cypris. It was afterwards more fully detailed in his ‘ Hist. Nat. 
Crustac.’ vol. iii. At the time of the publication of that work only 
one species was known ; now there are about twenty, and in the 
paper now before the Society I propose adding four more. The 
species already described are—
