Miers * remarks upon having examined specimens of j!Ega 

 Harfordi, sent by Mr. Lockington to the British Museum 

 and designated Idotea Harfordi in a manuscript note of the 

 author. He considers that the specimens belong to the genus 

 Cirolana or a closely allied type, without further identifying 

 them. Hansen f also states that, according to Miers, ^ja 

 Harfordi is probably a Cirolana. He had not seen Lock- 

 ington's description, but followed Miers regarding the syste- 

 matic position of the species. 



Specimens of ^fja Harfordi were sent by Mr. S. J. Holmes 

 to the National j\luseum from the California Academy of 

 Sciences, which prove to be identical with Cirolana californica, 

 Hansen.
