Say remarks of his spociineu (llu' leiij;tli of which ho gives as only 

 :^^-th.s of an inch ), that " it is ono of th(> many species of this dass that 

 may be found inliabiting marine i)lants. fncns, itc. and also zoophytes, 

 devouring the fabrieators of the latter, and seeking a fugitive prey 

 amongst the leaves of the former." 



The description and tigiu'c arc taken from a specimen kindly sent 

 to me ]>y ^U\ Stinipson, whicli I have compared with an unnamed 

 specimen in the British Museum presented by M. HolboU. 



8. Podocenis latipes. 

 IschjTocerus latipes, Kroijer, Nat. Tidskr. iv. p. 162. 

 •< Flagellum of the superior antennas equalling or a little surpassing 

 the last joint of the peduncle ; secondary appendage scarcely half 

 the length of the first articulus of the flagellum. Last joint of the 

 peduncle of the inferior antenna; shorter than the flagellum ; fii'st 

 articulas of the flagellum shorter than the others. Second pair 

 of gnathopoda dilate, ovate. Third pair of pereiopoda much 

 shorter than the fourth and fifth, having their basa considerably 

 dilated, and the mera, eaqn, and propoda with their margins 

 entire. Coxae of the fii'st and second pairs of pereiopoda a little 

 deeper than that of the second pair of gnathopoda ; coxa of the 

 second pair of pereiopoda slightly arcuate.

 This species approximates closely to P. variegatus. 



9. Podocenis ocius, n. s. (Plate XLIV. fig. o.) B.M. 



Eyes round. Superior antenna) longer than the peduncle of the in- 

 ferior. Inferior antenna) nearly half the length of the animal, 

 having the flagellum about the length of the last joint of the pe- 

 duncle, consisting of thi-ee articuli, of which the first articulus is 

 much longer than the other two, the last very small, and furnished 

 with a long, slightly on-ved spine and a few haii's. First pair of 

 gnathopoda having the propodos ovate, tapeiing ; palm obli(iue, 

 not defiiied ; dactylos serrated. Second pair- of gnathopoda hanng 

 the propodos long-ovate; palm very oblique, half the length of 

 the propodos, defined by an anteriorly-dii-ected obtuse tooth, and 

 armed with a long central obtuse tooth, anteriorly directed, and 

 three anterior tubercles ; dactylos having the inner margin 

 smooth.
