Natural History of East Finmarlc. 7 



The mandibles (fig. 4) are short and stout and have a 

 broad dentated biting-end ; the palp is large and two-branched. 

 The other mouth-organs appear to be similar to those of 

 Cyclopina liltoralis, G. S. Brady. 



All the four pairs of swimming-feet, which also resemble 

 those of that species, are comparatively short and have both 

 branches of about eqnal length and composed of three joints ; 

 fig. 5 represents the first pair, and the other three are some- 

 what like this in form and structure. 



The fifth pair are small and are each composed of two 

 moderately broad joints (fig. 6) ; the first joint bears a single 

 subapical seta, but tlie end joint is armed with two spines, 

 one at each distal angle, and a small intermediate seta. 



The genital segment of the abdomen appears to consist of 

 two coalescent segments and is about equal to half the entire 

 length of the abdomen ; the remaining three segments are 

 comparatively short (fig. 1). 



The caudal furcse are scarcely equal in length to the last 

 segment of the abdomen. 



1 am very pleased to accede to the request of the Rev. A. M. 

 Norman to name this distinct species after the well-known 

 Norwegian carcinologist Herr J. Sparre Schneider, who was 

 Dr. Norman's companion in his expedition of 1890. 



Hub. Vadso Sound, East Finmark ; rather rare. No males 

 were observed. 



Remarks. Cyclopina Schneideri, as already stated, is in 

 some respects not unlike Cyclopina gracilis, Glaus, but it 

 differs in having more robust mandibles and in the caudal 

 farca being very short ; moreover, it is about double the size 

 of that species. It does not agree satisfactorily with any 

 described species known to me.

This species was obtained in gatherings from Svolvaer, 

 Lofoten Islands; Bog Fiord, Lakse Fiord, Vadso Sound, and 

 Varanger Fiord, East Finmark, and was of moderately fre- 

 quent occurrence ; the specimens appeared to be for the most 

 part rather larger than those found in Scottish waters.
