 The figure given by Mr. Milne Edwards in the work 

 above referred to as A. gracilis, is no doubt intended for 

 this species, since it was taken on the neighbouring 

 coast of JLa Manche. But, since he mistook it for 

 Anthura gracilis, the retention of his specific name, 

 founded, as it was, in error, would lead to confusion ; 

 we have therefore thought it desirable to adopt another 

 not open to the same objection.
