A very imperfect specimen apparently referable to this species was obtaiued at Station 

 34 e. It agrees with the species described and figured by Sars in the characters of the 

 third perseopods, and in the peculiarity of having the second joint of the fourth 

 pereeopods produced into a tooth. The first antennae were missing; without these it 

 measures 6*25 mm. 



Another specimen was obtained at Station 27 a. It was not in perfect condition, but 

 the first antennse, third peraeopods, and first uropods were in agreement with the characters 

 assigned by Sars.

The family is still limited to a single genus. . ■; 



Lanceola, Say, 1818. 



This name was reinstated by Bovallius in 1885, after having been long merged in 

 Syperia by Milne-Edwards and others, and in Vibilia by Spence Bate. Had it been 

 really identical with either of those genera, it must still have been upheld by reason of 

 its priority over both of them.
