 Lophopanopeus bellus RATHBUN, Bull. Lab. Nat. Hist. State Univ. Iowa, IV, 



272, 1898. 



Harriman Expedition. Prince William Sound, at Fox Island (Kin- 

 caid) and Virgin Bay (Coe). This is the most northern locality known 

 for this species. 



Distribution. Prince William Sound; Kasaan Bay, Prince of Wales 

 Island, Alaska (U. S. Nat. Mus.); Vancouver Island, British Columbia 

 to Monterey, California (type locality of Xanthodes hemphillii Locking- 

 ton). Lower California (A. Milne Edwards). 



The figure given by A. Milne Edwards resembles L. bellus more than 

 it does any of the other species here described; the locality given is 

 Lower California. 



There are on the Pacific coast six closely allied species of Lophopano- 

 peus ; some of these have been confused with L. bellus and L. leucomanus ; 

 therefore the published localities from which I have not examined speci- 

 mens are accepted with a reservation. 



1 I have concluded to omit Daira americana Stimpson from the list until it is known 

 that the species really occurs in California in contradistinction to Lower California.
