xxi THE BRITISH PYCNOGONS 541 



A petiolatus, Kr. (Figs. 270, c; 275, B; 287) (Pallenc attenuate* and 

 /ii/timaea, Hodge ; Phoxichilidium c,>'!<jti u m and Innjii-nlli^ Dohrn) : I'lvmonth, 

 Firth of Forth, Cumbrae, Irish coasts. 



Aininnthiu (Aclielia) cch/nutu, Hodge (Fig. 265, B; 274, 4; 275, E) : 

 Plymouth, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Cumbrae, Durham (Hodge), West 

 of Ireland. We have not found it on the East of Scotland. A. brerij".-, 

 Hodge, is presumed to be the young. Two of Dohrn's Neapolitan specie.-, 

 . I. jilnilij'i TH and A. franciscana, are in my opinion not to be distinguished 

 from one another, nor from the present species. 



A. ]iix/>/<l, Hodge (Fig. 266, c) (A. loiigipes, Hodge (juv) ; A. magnirostris, 

 Dohrn ; 1 Pasithoe vesiculosa, Goodsir ; ? Pephrcdo hirsute^ Goodsir) : Corn- 

 wall and Devon (Hodge and Norman), Jersey. The form common on tin- 

 East of Scotland would seem to be tins species. The Mediterranean .1. 

 magnirostris, Dohrn, appears to be identical. 



A. lui'i-i:;, Hodge : Cornwall (Hodge), Devon (Norman), Jersey (Sinel). 



Tanystylum orbicular?, Wilson (Clotenia coniroxtn; Dohrn) : Donegal 

 (Carpenter). 



Plinyichilus spinosus, Mont. (Fig. 265, C; 270, A; 275, c) : South < '. 

 Moray Firth, Firth of Clyde, Ireland. A smaller and less spiny form occurs 

 which Carpenter records as P. la-ems, Grube, but Norman iinites the two 

 under the name of Endeis spinosus (Mont.). 



/'ii'-itoyonum li Morale, Strom (Fig. 262) : on all coasts, and to considerable 

 deptlis (150 fathoms, West of Ireland). 



Xijiii/>l/on brevirostre, Hodge (N. <jr<i<-ili', Sars) (Figs. 263, 264, 267, A ; 

 272, 274, 3): common on the East Coast; Herm (Hodge), Dublin, Queens- 

 town (Carpenter). Our smallest species of NyiiipJum. 



N. mill-inn, Hodge (N. gracile, Johnston; N. rubrii.iii, G. O. Sai . 

 common on the East Coast; Oban (Norman), Ireland (Carpenter). 



N. gross/peg, O. Fabr., Johnston (A", jolnixlmii, Goodsin: Northuml'er 

 land, Ka.-t of Scotland, Orkney, e1c., not uncommon. 



A", (inn- Hi; Leach (X. i/nll/rii in, lloek : p A', femoratum, Ijcacli : South 

 of England, West of Scotland, and Ireland. 



N. striiiiii/, Kr. (&. giganteum, Goodsin Kigs. 273, 271, -M: l-!a-t ('oast, 

 from Holy l.-land to Shetland. 



Ghaetonymphon liirttnn, Fabi-. (Fig 271, 1): Northumberland i Hodge , 

 Margate (Hoek), East of Scotland, and Ireland, not uncommon. There 

 .-eems to be no doubt that llritish specimens agree with this species as tigmed 



and identilied I iy Sars. A', spinosum, G Isir (Fast of Scotland, Goodsir; 



r.ella-i, \V. Thoiiijison), is, according to Norman, i he same species. 

 Norwegian specimens iigmvd under the latter name are not identical, and 

 bave lieen renamed by Norman C. spinosissimum, Imt are >aid \<\ Meim-rt 



and Moliius to be identical with t'. //////yns, I Jell.

 proportions, as do Dohrn's Neapolitan species one from another. We have 

 specimens from the Sound of Mull that come very near, and perhaps agree
