 fig. 1. 



A few specimens collected by Jessup in lakes on Old Crow river flats, 40 

 miles north of New Rampart House, July 3, 1911. 



Euchlanis dilatata Ehrenberg. 



This species does not appear to be common in the Arctic; it was collected 

 by Johansen among algae growijig on stones in the river at Bernard harbour, 

 on August 16, 1915, and in a pond at Chantry Island, Bernard harbour, on 

 June 17, 1916; in Jessup's material it occurred in fair numbers in a collection 

 from lakes on Old Crow river flats, 60 miles north of New Rampart House, 

 on July 11, 1911. 



Euchlanis pellucida, new species. 



Plate 2, figs. 1-5. 



The , corona agrees with that of other species of the genus. The body is 

 (teiradiate in cross section and has a high dorsal keel and broad, lateral, wing- 

 Lke expansions. The ventral plate is nearly circular, slightly constricted 

 anteriorly at the opening for the head; it is joined directly to the lateral plates 

 without the intervention of a longitudinal sulcus as in other species of the 

 genus. The foot is obscurely two-jointed; two long setae project from the 

 dorsal side of the first foot joint. The toes are long, slender and nearly straight, 

 slightly enlarged posteriorly, and end in rather blunt points; their length is 

 more, than one fifth of the length of the body.
