The antennules (fig. 2) are very short, and composed of five joints ; the 
length of the second joint is about equal to that of the last, but the pen- 
ultimate joint is very small, as shown by the formula :— 
Proportional lengths of the joints, - 5°13°9°*2:°18 
Number of the joints, - - = Pele Dee She. D 
The posterior antenne are of moderate size, the end joint has the inner 
margin fringed with minute bristles, while two short setz spring from 
the distal half of the same margin; the outer rami is very small and uni- 
articulate, and furnished with two or three setz (fig. 3). 
The mandible, maxille, and first maxillipeds are similar to those of 
C. neglecta. The second maxillipeds are very small, the end joint has 
the inner margin fringed with fine bristles and bears a long and very 
slender claw (fig. 4). 
All the four pairs of swimming feet are moderately short, and are some- 
what similar to each other in structure ; the outer branches are three- 
jointed and bear moderately long, slender spines or set ; the end joints of 
the outer branches of the first and second pairs are each provided with 
four terminal sete, but the third and fourth pairs have five sete round 
the end of the last joint; these joints of the third and fourth pairs also 
differ from those of the first and second in that they become gradually 
and distinctly broader towards the distal extremity, as shown in the 
drawing (figs, 7 and 8); the inner branches are all two-jointed, short, and 
narrow ; tke first joint is very small, but the second is elongated ; the 
inner branches in the first pair scarcely reach beyond the end of the 
second joint of the outer branches, while in each of the second, third, 
and fourth pairs the inner branches are slightly shorter than those of the 
preceding pair ; the inner branches of the first and secoud pairs are each 
furnished with two, and the others with three, terminal setz (figs. 5-8). 
The fifth pair are small ; the primary joint, which is very short, is pro- 
duced interiorly into a narrow plate, which becomes somewhat wider 
towards the distal end, and is furnished with a short and moderately elon- 
gated spine, which is articulated to a notch near the middle of the inner 
margin, and also with a stout and moderately long spine and an elongate 
seta on the truncate apex ; the secondary joint is long and very narrow ; 
a short seta springs from near the middle and another from near the 
distal end of the outer margin. Moreover, a moderately long and spini- 
form seta springs from near the distal end of the inner margin of the 
secondary joint, and there is also a slender apical seta (fig. 9). 
The furcal joints are rather longer than the combined lengths of the 
last two abdominal segments, and they each bear a small bristle on the 
upper half of the outer margin and another on their dorsal aspect.

Harpacticus uniremis, Kroyer. Pl. x,, fig. 20. 
This species, which is so fully described and figured by Professor G, O. 
Sars in the new volume of his Crustacea of Norway now in course of pub- 
lication, has been observed in one or two places round the Scottish and 
English coasts —I have even obtained it in material washed from the 
filters in use at the hatchery at the Bay of Nigg. 
_In this species the limbs are strongly hispid, and it is otherwise quite 
distinct from the other described species belonging to the genus found on
