88 ANNUAL REPORT SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, 1907. 
In this memoir there is described and illustrated the young of two kinds of 
crayfishes, one from Oregon and one from Maryland, representing the two most 
diverse forms in North America. The first, second, and third larval stages are 
determined, and there is described the hitherto unknown nature of successive 
mechanical attachments of the offspring to the parent. 
1723. The Apodous Holothurians. A Monograph of the Synaptidz and Molop- 
adiidxe. Including a report on the representatives of these families in the 
collections of the United States National Museum. By Hubert Lyman Clark. 
Quarto. Pages 218+, with 13 plates. Part of Vol. XXXV. In press. 
This memoir gives a summary of present knowledge of the two families of 
sea cucumbers, which lack tube feet. 
The most important feature of the work is the recognition of the changes 
taking place in the maturing and senescence of individual holothurians, par- 
ticularly in the family Molopadiide. As a result of this, radical changes in 
nomenclature have been necessary, but every effort has been made to have the 
system adopted accord with the most widely accepted codes, and thus be as 
stable as possible. Special attention bas been given to geographical distribution, 
but the work in this line is chiefly of value as a summary of our present very 
inadequate knowledge. Artificial keys to genera and species have been freely 
used with the intention of making the work as useful as possible to all subse- 
quent investigators, and the numerous figures, most of which are copied from 
other writers, are given with the same end in view.
