1 Saint-Joseph proposed to separate the four species (A. ampulliferus Philippi 

 1844, A. enosimce Marenzeller 1885, A. globifera Theel 1879, and A. similis 

 Marion and Bobretzki 1875) into two genera based on the difference in form of 

 the abdominal setae, under the names Apomatus and Apomatopsis, but unfortu- 

 nately places the species for which the genus Apomatus was proposed, under the 

 later name, thus, unless transposed, making the two synonymous. 



1 Salmacina cedificatrix Claparede 1870 (appendix) is figured as having the 

 tips of the branchise regularly tapered. The spoon-shaped end figured by Saint- 

 Joseph (1894) as belonging to Salmacina dystera Huxley (as Protula, 1855) is 

 either an error in reference for Filograna implexa, or the species is erroneously 

 referred to Salmacina.
