Material. licnuiiks: -- Tlie ro-description of this species given above is based on a single specimen 



which was kindlv placed at niv disposal for re-examination by the C o p e n h a g e n Z o o I o- 

 g i e a 1 M u s e ii m. The specimen in (piestion had been denoted as the type specimen by Pro- 

 fessor G. 8. BhaU'i , tlie describer of this species. This statement must, however, be considered 

 incorrect, as the speciincn was not dissected, and the ori;,Mnal (h'scription was made JVoni a 

 dissected specimen. ( >n the other liand there seems to l>e no doubt that the specimen really 

 belongs to the species to wliicli it has been ascribed. 

 ^'"••""/""""■•'•- "I In several respects the specimen was not in a very good condition for the description 



e^crtp ion. ^^ details; in addition some parts of it happened to be destroyed by an accident when it was 

 dissected. Because of this the description given above had to be left incomplete in several points. 

 In spite of this I hope it is complete enough to permit of certainty in identifying the species. 

 Difffrenceg from the Somc divergencies from G. S. Bhady's original description mav be noted, but for tliese it 



iirisinal description. . . ' i • i 



IS only necessary to compare the two descriptions. These differences are probably to be explained 

 as due entirely to the superficial method of investigation used in the original description. 

 ^''*"*"- G. S. Brady states that this species was caught at two localities in Java ,,Sourabaya, 



several specimens, o' $; Cheribon, 4% fathoms, one specimen, (j". In addition one specimen, 

 a male, is said to have been caught at Madeira. Tliis last statement as to locality is certainly 

 a mistake. It undoubtedly refers to the specimen described by me above. On tiie original 

 label attached to this we read: ,,Madoura, 0ens astende, Andrea, 1870". In other words the 

 specimen comes from the east end of the island of Madoera (Madura) on the north side of Java. 

 near Sourabaya, i. e. from a locality in the neighbourhood of the two other localities.
