The full results of our examinatiou of the material confided 

 to us will be published by the authorities of the British 

 Museum in a series specially devoted to the biological 

 collections of the ' Discovery.' The Schizopoda, though 

 immensely numerous in individuals ot" one species, comprise 

 l)ut a few species, of which five appiar to have hitherto 

 escaped description. After consultation with Dr. H. J. 

 Hansen, who has charge of a much larger collection of the 

 same group made by the Swedish and Belgian Expeditions, 

 we have decided to publish diagnoses of the new forms, 

 adopting his manuscript names for two which we found he 

 had already worked out. We include a note of all s|)C('ies 

 taken and some remarks on the characters of Eujtfiansia 

 superba, Dana, and Tfujsanoessa macrura, G. O. Sars.
