   We 
  found 
  fine 
  perfect 
  specimens 
  alive 
  under 
  stones 
  near 
  

   low 
  water 
  mark. 
  Kiener's 
  statement, 
  that 
  they 
  live 
  on 
  the 
  

   rocks, 
  is 
  probably 
  erroneous. 
  Like 
  Cyprfcas, 
  they 
  seek 
  con- 
  

   cealment.

   search, 
  no
