Wilson, Amer. Jour. of Sc. and Arts, vol. xv. p. 200, 
1878, Trans. Connect. Acad., v. 10, 1880. Wilson 
considers this species, which is a true Pallene, as repre- 
senting a new genus, which he calls Pseudopallene. 
But there is no difference in the number of the joints of 
the ovigerous legs, and the presence or absence of auxil- 
iary claws furnishes by no means a trustworthy ground 
for division of the genus. “This species is very similar 
to the last (P. discoidea, Kroyer) and a larger number 
of specimens may show them to be identical” (Wilson, 
ibid.). 
Pallene lappa, Bohm, Pyenogoniden des Museums zu | Mozambique. 
Berlin, Monatsber. der K. Ak. der Wissensch. zu 
Berlin, 182, 1879. I was long in doubt whether this ‘i 
species was a true Pallene or a Phowichilidium. I | 
have arrived at the conclusion that it is indeed a 
Paillene, but a young one, with not quite devéloped 
ovigerous legs. . 
()Pallene cireularis, Goodsix, Edin. New Phil. Journal, vol. | Scotland. 
xxxii. p. 136, 1842. Goodsir’s description is insuffi. 
cient. Perhaps this species is nearly allied to P. 
discoidea, Kroyer, Bidrag. til Kundskab, Naturhist.

Pallene malleolata, G. O. Sars, Crustacea et Pycnogonida Lat. 72° 27’ to 80° N., long. 5° 
nova, Arch. f. Math. og. Naturvid., iv. 469, 1879. | 40! to 20° 51’ B, 
Seems to be a species characteristic of the higher 
northern latitudes. 
_ Phowichilidium, Milne-Edwards (1840). 
Basis of the proboscis dorsally covered by the front part of the cephalothoracie segment. 
On this front part the oculiferous tubercle is placed. Mandibles cheliform ; palpi 
wanting ; ovigerous legs five- to ten- (?) jointed, the last four joints never furnished 
with denticulate spines ; in some species present in both sexes, in others only in the 
male sex.
