Metoponorthus se,rfasciatusj Budde-Lund. 



I procured two specimens, which Dollfus, from their im- 

 jierfcct condition, doubtfully refers to this species, which had 

 been previously found in Madeira by Dr. H. Bronniche. 



Porcellio maculipes, Budde-Lund. 



This has been taken twice in Madeira, and is unknown 

 elsewhere. I did not meet with it. 



Porcellio IcEvis, Latreille. 



Very abundant in the neighbourhood of Funchal, especially 

 in gardens and among bananas. 



Porcellio dilatatus, Brandt. 



Specimens are in Dollfus's collection which were found by 

 Dr. Nodier. 



Eluma purpurascenSf Budde-Lund. 



This species is remarkable on account of its simple eye- 

 lenses. I met with it up to heights of between 2000 and 

 i^OOO feet. Its range extends throughout the Madeiran 

 province, it having been found both in the Canaries and 

 Azores. It has also been met witii in Portugal and Spain, 

 and at Charente, France ; but of this last locality Dollfus 

 writes : — " oil il a ^t^ certainement introduit." 



Armadillidium vulgare, Latreille. 

 Very abundant round Funchal. 



Armadillidiwn tigris, Budde-Lund. 



Taken by Metschnikoff in Madeira and not known else- 

 where {Budde-Lund).
