" Boeck undoubtedly had specimens of this species from Packard's collec- 

 tions, for he (Skandinaviske og Arktiske Amphipoder, p. 184) distinctly 



mentions it as having been found in Labi'ador by Packard, but " "all 



the specimens sent l)y Packard under the above name to the Museum of 

 Yale College belong to Boeck's genus Orchomene, so that it is doubtful if the 

 ' common form occurring abundantly on the coast of Maine,' was the same 

 species as the specimens sent to Boeck " (S. I. Smith, 1883, Proc. U. S. Nat. 

 Mus., vol. VI, p. 227).
