the clasping antenna being on the left side, and the pigment- 

 spot invariably on the right side. The secend feet in both 

 male and female have the characteristic notch and hook on both 

 limbs. Length 3-4 mm. Haul 20 a, (200 to 100 fms.)and several 

 others."

" The head is like H. papilligera Gbt. Though the end joints 

 of both anterior antennae were broken off, the 19 joints left had 

 a length of over 4 mm., with the geniculation between the 18th 

 and 19th segments. The anterior antennae were therefore much 

 longer than the whole animal, which was 3*5 mm. There was 

 considerable asymmetry of the furcal segments, that on the left 

 being much the longest and broadest. The anterior foot-jaw had 

 one thick hooked bristle on the 5th lobe, but no " tooth-comb " 

 bristle, and the 5th feet were peculiar and unlike those of any 

 other ffeterochceta, displaying an upright and stiff process of the 

 2nd basal joint, armed with fine stiff hairs on the inner aspect 

 (like a " tooth-comb "), and the proximal inner margin of the 1st 

 joint of the exopodite with a protuberance armed with 4 teeth. 

 The 2nd basal joint of the foot of the opposite side is armed distally 

 with short stiff bristles. It could be only the male of H. grimaldii 

 or of H. longicornis, neither of which is yet known, or of H. major 

 (Dahl). The latter and H. grimaldii are very large (5-10 mm.), 

 and though H. zetesios resembles II. longicornis in some points, it 

 is perhaps better for the present to distinguish it as a new species. 

 Only one example was met with in Dr. Fowler's collection, in 

 haul 20 a (200 to 100 fathoms)." 



ATLANTICUS Wolfenden, op. cit. p. 364. 



" The occurrence of an example of this genus in the Faeroe 

 Channel is remarkable. This specimen was found in the collection 

 made by Dr. Fowler as 20 a (200 to 100 fathoms). It had a 

 total length of 1*45 mm., a 6-segmented anterior antenna with 

 very long and peculiar sensory processes. It has distinct differ- 

 ences from JEg. mucronatus or JEg. aculeatus Gbt., and also from 

 the species described by Scott from the Gulf of Guinea as 

 JEgisthus longirostris." 



LUCICUTIA MAGNA Wolfenden, sp. n. J 



"A single specimen found in Dr. Fowler's collection from 19 a 

 (480 to 350 fathoms), of 3*54 mm. length, was apparently new. 

 The anterior antennae were larger than the whole body, by the 

 terminal one and a half joints. The endopodite of the 1st foot 

 was two- jointed. The right 5th foot has a strong spiny process 

 on the inner side of the 2nd basal and the exopodite of two seg- 

 ments ; the endopodite and exopodite of the left 5th foot being 

 each of three segments. The size alone distinguishes it from the 

 males of any other known species, only L. grandis being larger."
