shorter, and scarcely bent. Antennules more strongly curved, twice bent in a 

 rectangular manner ; terminal seta nearly twice as long as the four sensory setse. 

 Peduncle of the natatory branch of the antenna about twice as long as the short- 

 jointed distal portion, which bears long plumose setae: principal seta of the 

 secondary branch greatly dilated, and about one-third longer than the next seta, 

 which is again double the length of the remaining three ; hooked appendage of 

 the male bent upon itself abruptly at the base. 



Taken at the surface, and in various depths, as follows : — Off Cape Finisterre, 

 in lat. 37° 45' N., long. 13° 38' W. ; lat. 34° 18' N. ; long. 15° 34' W. ; lat. 32° 30' N. ; 

 long. 16° 42' W. ; off Funchal (Glaus). 



Genus 4. Halocypria, Glaus. 



Shell almost globular, with small but distinct rostrum, and deep sinus. Hinge 

 at hinder end well-developed. Principal seta of secondary branch of antenna 

 very long, filiform, not dilated nor lancet-shaped. Mandible bearing, in addition 

 to the transverse rows of teeth, a group of four strong curved teeth near the base. 

 First pair of legs short and stout, almost conically pointed. 



The characters which, according to Glaus, chiefly distinguish the shell of this 

 from the preceding genus are the larger development of the posterior hinge- 

 processes, the more jjronounced rostrum and deeper sinus, together with the 

 presence, on the anterior border of the right valve, of a considerable prominence, 

 and on the left valve two smaller prominences.
